Bloodlust was the most important part inherited within the witch gene.
The craving for blood ran through a witch's entire life.
Affection for their families locked away that bloodthirsty yearning.
Witches were often very good at both restraining and unleashing their bloodlust.

Several witches dressed in hunting gear were studying the maps.
