The '''Witches of Ystawingun''' are a coven of nine powerful [[Witch|witches]]. Originally existing in Arthurian times, the coven was reformed in modern times by [[Thiton]], with the intent of freeing [[Morgan le Fay|their original leader]] from imprisonment by [[The Crystals|the Crystal]].

== Also Called ==
* Maidens of Annwfn
* The nine sorceresses
* The nine sisters
* The sorceresses of Caer Lloyw
* Nine Sorceresses of Gloucester

== Summary ==
The nine sorceresses are a recurring element in [[wikipedia:Arthurian legend|Arthurian legend]] with varying depictions. What does not vary, however, is the fact that they possessed great mystical power. Whatever the truth of their exploits, the nine Witches of Ystawingun would eventually fall at the hands of [[wikipedia:Peredur|Peredur]] in the aftermath of the disappearance of [[Morgan le Fay]], with only [[Thiton]] and [[Moronoe]] surviving the slaughter.

In the 1700s, Thiton would paint ''Ode to the Mother of the Night'', a baroque style painting with the witches as its subject<ref name="Which Was">Which Was, and Which Is To Come</ref>.

The nine witches would remain a group forgotten to history for a millenium, but were eventually revived in modern times by Thiton, who had discovered the fate of Morgan le Fay and had resolved to free her by any means necessary. The modern incarnation, however, is only formed of eight witches, with the ninth spot being reserved for Morgan herself upon her release. This new dynamic is represented through the heptagram, a seven-pointed star, with the group's leader and vessel taking a point within the centre of the sigil.

After the awakening of [[Yvonne de Montauban|the new Blood Knight]], Thiton summoned the rest of her coven to discuss their next moves<ref name="Which Was"></ref>.
