Henedina Wenster

Henedina Wenster, nicknamed Hen Wen, is a witch living in the Birnam Woods of DunBroch.

Background
Henedina lives in a cottage in the Birnam Woods, posing as a wood carver. She also brings brooms to life so that they can sweep the cottage while she does magic and carves wooden trinkets.

Volume 2
Ella DeVil pays a visit to Henedina's cottage and catches Henedina in the middle of catching a glimpse of the future in her cauldron. Ella interrogates her on a way to destroy magic, although when she doesn't cooperate, Ella turns two of Hen Wen's fingers into ice. Only then does Hen reveal that the Draught of Infinite Poison is the only way to wholly destroy all magic. Ella takes her back to Fort DunBroch where she plans to create a "tornado" portal to another world.

Volume 3
Sometime after returning to her cottage, Henedina is visited by Roger Scarlet and Mavrin Mace who seek a way to restore Roger to his original age. However, Henedina reveals that she is out of ingredients. At that moment, they are confronted by the demigoddess Rebecca De Winter, who destroys Henedina's cottage and kills her.
