I think the art is gorgeous and very clean. The story is decent and reminds us of a common situation while reading about fantasy characters... judging who we can trust more: the main character's family, or strangers they know a shorter time. In the brief moments we are given with our characters, we have the narrative of a strict mother figure teaching a young witch, learning the exact way to navigate her powers, then a newcomer arrives to mess with the flow of life for everyone. We are given early warnings by the mother that the main character is dissuaded from interacting with others and ... instead focus on practicing emotionless magic, for a witch must stay in control of her emotions or magic disappears. The newcomer is shown as a happy-go-lucky teen, around the age of our main character, and he's just happy he met someone in the woods he can interact with while bringing gifts from the outside world and learning about each other.

In this one-shot, we get a history of the treatment of witches, and treatment of humans, an isolated family and the reason they are so isolated, and an interesting power system where cold and calculated is a MUST to cast magic.
Short, not sweet, great art, decent plot, check it out, it's not long.
