Hi!
\nToday I want to recount you another story about masche, witches, and this time we\u2019ll go on the road which reaches Ror\u00e0. You must know that during my walks and my chats with elders, who know every single ancient fables, I discovered that every region has a place in which is said that the witches lived… In Ror\u00e0 this place is located in the Fucine (literally, smithies) hamlet, just before the entrance of the town.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Behind me, the houses that once hosted the smithy who gave the name to the place<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The inhabitants of the two places, Ror\u00e0 and Fucine, are rivals since their origin: the rorenghi call themselves ciat, \u201ccats\u201d, and call the people from Fucine giari, \u201cmice\u201d, to stress the hostility that shapes the two hamlets, enemies just like cats and mice.
\nAnd don\u2019t you think that the name of this hamlet is funny? It\u2019s called Fucine because once, just under this group of houses, you could find an ancient smithy. And it\u2019s told that the old owners of this smithy were sorcerers! But not only, it seems that they were also very proud of their reputation, and that thay didn\u2019t lose a single chance to remind it to the other people.<\/p>\n

\"Here<\/a>
Here it is the nice Fucine hamlet!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A night, a young man from Ror\u00e0, engaged with a girl from the other hamlet, was quietly returning home. Suddendly, his road was blocked by a huge beast grunting and mumbling; it was exactly in the middle of the street and it seemed that it didn\u2019t want to let him pass. The young man waited for a while, then he started to hiss and cry to scary the creature, but it continued to grunt in the same place. At the end he lost his patience and resolved to lift the stick he had and hardly hit the beast. But it continued to stay there, and the the young mad had to hit it harder and harder, until he achieved to drive away the beast. The following day, everybody could see a man from Fucine going about with a bandage on his arm.<\/p>\n

But that wasn\u2019t all! A month later, indeed, the scene happened again in the same way, but the boy this time was less scared, because he had understood to be involved in sorcerer things. Seconds after he saw the beast, he ran towards it and hit with his stick even harder then the time before… Guess what? The following day, the man from Fucine had his head bandaged and, even if he was proud of showing to everybody he was a sorcerer, he ceased to interfere with the path of the young man who was going to see his girlfriend.
\nBut I have to confess that for a long time the elders didn\u2019t see with favour the engagements between people from Ror\u00e0 and people from Fucine!<\/p>\n

How to get here<\/strong>
\nleave Luserna San Giovanni and take the Strada Provinciale 162 in the direction of Ror\u00e0. Go on the main road for about 5 kilometers, and you will reach Fucine hamlet.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
