Long Story Short: Love to feel this carved hex on my heart.

Hex is a tale about a witch who is about to be hanged and the girl who perhaps travels through time to be with her during her last days. Amazing character build-up woven by a very dark and whimsical narrative, with a poignant social and feminist critique.
