The Tall Tales of the Tallahassee Witch

Legend goes that Flroida was still deciding were their capital would be. There was a few towns up for the title, one of which was Tallahassee. The mayor of Tallahasse very much wanted make his town the capital and build his power to extend beyond their small town. His wife very much wanted to support him, but she was told that Tallahassee wouldn't become the capital. Apperently another mayor had personally talked to the President himself about making his town the capital of Florida. The wife tried and tried to convince her husband to give up, but he was hopeful. To avoid him from being upset, the wife resovled to do anything to get Tallahassee to become the capital. She turned to the dark arts and used her powers to kill the mayor of this other town. The wife then used her powers to increase the glory of Tallahassee, through actions like increasing crops, repairing buildings, and some think that she even changed the limestone underneath townhall. Her plan was successful and Tallahassee became the capital. Her husband found out about her magics, and saw how her magic came from a power beyond God and Satan. He vowed to kill her that night. When night fell that night, the mayor steeled himself to kill not only his wife, but the mother of their 5 children. The plan was conjured with the advice of the priest. Armed with a cross, the mayor was able to injure her enough that she couldn't defend herself with her magic. Her last words were a curse on the town of Tallahassee: "My soul will contenuie to worship the only one who paid me back. You will never be remembered by those who matter."
