Nearly 100 years after the first attempt to establish an English colony on
Roanoke Island, the Native villages and settlements on Hatteras remained
intact. The Hatorask and Croatoan people were still living independently
alongside the ever-encroaching English invaders.
1681, England: Wrongly accused of witchcraft in England and branded
with a "W", a young healer is imprisoned and transported to the colony
of Carolina to be a tobacco planter's wife and servant. A fateful accident
in the rough waters off Hatteras Island bring her to a different land and a
very different man, and a life in a Native American village near present day
Avon, once known as Kinnakeet.
1681, Kinnakeet, Hatteras Island: Even though the English have been
spreading throughout the Carolina Colony, young Hatorask chieftain,
Kinnahawk, has kept his people and his island village as separate as possible
in the rapidly changing world that was colonial America. As a boy, it
was foretold he would marry a woman marked with the sign of the White
Brant. He did not count on his destiny being a White Witch.
