The scouts paid little attention to David’s curse, taking him to the middle of the Tar River by boat. According to the legend, a millstone was tied to David. When they pushed the millstone off the ship, it sank to the bottom of the river. Screams echoed from the depths of the water, but they didn’t belong to Warner. The screams turned into shrieks as the British scouts realized what David said was true. He cursed them.
A black substance began to surface and take shape. A beautiful woman arose from the darkness, her long blonde hair billowing out as if it had a life of its own. That is when her face changed. She went from beautiful to hatred and anger. The banshee grieved the loss of David as if her son, screeching with such force that it pierced the ears and hearts of the British soldiers.
