Oh, such a tragic figure we find here in this lovely old angst-ridden sorceress! It seems that she made a grave error, and at some point she lost a child... or perhaps used her powers for something she shouldn't have, and in saving the child she has inadvertently caused the loss of her own powers, as well as an oncoming global famine!

I love all the imagery, the dust and the runes, and her dress blowing in the wind. Magical.
