Claudia is obsessed with Friedrich’s attention and as Lilli grows into womanhood Claudia deliberately keeps her dressed unbecomingly. But when Lilli asserts herself, Claudia orders her mute brother to kill her. However instead Lilli escapes into the forest where she is found by a troupe of roughneck miners who grudgingly take her into their midst. When Claudia discovers that Lilli is still alive, she uses sorcery to try and kill her off, all the while bringing Friedrich and the palace under the thrall of her black arts.
