Malina Dravenholt
the Hollowgrave Countess
Named for the bitter fruit that grows in the shadow of the gallows-tree, and the hollow where the ravens keep their court.
Power
You command the roots of the graveyard to rise and bind the living—they hold fast until the moon sets, and you pay for each binding with a day's memory of sunlight.

You still have the key to the cottage door, though the cottage itself has been a mound of moss and stone for sixty years. Every spring, you fit it to the lock that never rusts. It was your mother's house—she was the one who taught you to keep things buried.
