Trial of Agatha Harkness

The Trial of Agatha Harkness was a failed attempt by the Salemites during the to kill the threat that Agatha Harkness had become for practicing dark witchcraft. Unfortunately, Harkness managed to overpower the witches, killing all of them, including her mother.
==Background==
Agatha Harkness had stolen knowledge above her position to tap into the darkest of magic. This was viewed as a threat by her coven.
==Trial==
During 1693 in Salem, Agatha Harkness' coven brought her to the woods, as she begged to be spared, and used magic to tied her to a wooden post. The witches gathered around her and Evanora Harkness asked her daughter if she was witch, to which she replied yes. Evanora replied that she had betrayed her coven regardless, and accused her of practicing a form of witchcraft that was forbidden. Agatha denied this by saying she could not control her magic and that she did not break any of their rules.
Nevertheless, the coven attempted to execute her by draining her life force with blue beans of energy. However, Agatha used her purple magic to reverse the effect and start draining the other witches' life force. Agatha continued to beg to her mother about her inability to control herself. Evanora attempted to execute Agatha herself, however, she managed to break free from the post and kill her.
==Aftermath==
Agatha Harkness managed to drain the magic and kill all the members of her former coven, including her mother Evanora. Freeing herself, Agatha went to her mother's corpse to take her brooch, and put it on herself, before flying away.
Centuries later, in 2023, Scarlet Witch cast an illusion into Harkness' head during the Battle of Westview to recreate this moment, except the corpses of the witches returned as undead to initiate another trial.
