Many villages in the rural Old World have a wise woman. As well as telling fortunes and preparing love potions for the more impressionable village adolescents, she acts as a herbal doctor, midwife, marriage counsellor, and general dispenser of advice to anyone who will listen. Wise men are not unknown, but, for some reason, they are rarer. Witch-hunters regard them as trouble and will burn them, given half a chance.
