From time to time, we all find ourselves interested in spirits or fascinated with the things humanity has yet to understand. However, these elemental spirits are easily offended, and once you’ve gotten on a faerie’s bad side, you’re in for a whirlwind of bad luck. She was found lying on Fairy Mound, a hill close to an ancient ruined village, only a couple of miles from where she had been lodging.

Netta Fornario on the Scottish Island The mysterious case of Netta Fornario on the Scottish Island

Once she reached Iona, far from London’s hospitals, that would seem to me to be how her life would inevitably come to an end.Although the details surrounding her death are unsubstantiated and cannot be verified due to lack of information, it makes for a fascinating story, nonetheless. She was found naked apart from a black cloak, with scratches on her feet, and a knife was found nearby as well as a cross that was cut into the hillside near the body. During the clash at the former Isis-Urania Temple, she was described as clinging to the outside of the building like a lizard or newt. All of these kinds of tale touch something universal in us, something subconscious that is tied up with our own fear of death, moral degradation, and loss of control; something that seems at the same time to be inextricably linked to our most dangerous desires. Through dreams and nightmares, lies and revelations, these other characters make themselves felt, invisible presences crowding ‘this too small room’ of the stage.

wildbird | THE MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF NETTA FORNARIO

Born at the cosy end of the Victorian era, growing up in Edwardian times, only to have it all come crashing down in the most brutal way when they were young adults. Occasionally, it is stated, Miss Fonario went off into trances and would remain in that condition for several hours.During the Crowley's Hazard invasion of the United Kingdom, Fornario was among the reproduced members of the Golden Dawn who confronted Aleister Crowley in the graveyard of Westminster Abbey. My theory is that a misogynistic local with deep-rooted Christian beliefs caught her in mid ceremony and killed her in a fit of rage. It could be that she fell into some brambles, but the posthumous examination didn't contain any reports of thorns being found in her skin. Being a member of the Golden Dawn's remnants, Netta Fornario is a user of Golden-style Magic, though her specialities and primary tools are not known. Greg Powrie plays John with a certain stiffness that fits the period, and convincingly unravels as a doctor who cannot love, cures rather than heals and has his own guilty secret.

Fornario was determined to get off the island, but after hastily packing her belongings she appeared to have second thoughts and decided to remain. Not surprisingly, many of the more lurid aspects of this case, such as the scratch-marks on Netta’s naked body, were the invention of sensationalist press. Some years after the end of World War 1, she decides to take a spiritual pilgrimage of sorts to the Scottish Island of Iona.There seems to have been some delay in reporting her missing, but I guess everybody was used to Netta disappearing for several hours at a stretch, and would not have found it unduly alarming. We see everything through the eyes of Doctor John Tyler as he inserts himself within the tense circle of Ruth and Netta’s relationship. It was a sacred place for the ancient Celts and early Christians alike, being the location where the Celtic Christian illuminated manuscript the Book of Kells was created.
