The Weave

According to the History of Barovia, long before the people of Barovia worshipped the Morninglord, they believed in the Weave. The Threads of Fate are the theoretical strings that make up the Weave, representing the fabric of the world and the passage of time. Whilst most of this religion has been lost to time, the Vistani still believe in the Threads, and the Fanes who attend to them.

Fanes of Barovia
Count Strahd von Zarovich claimed to have taken the life force of the three Fanes so as to render them powerless. However this was after he admitted to having regular readings with Madam Eva and stating that only the Fanes had the power to remove the curses bestowed upon Hallgrimm Mikkenson and Narid Ashplantt.

Forest Fane
The Seeker of the Forest Fane represents the coming of the future. She "seeks" because, according to the old tales, she can see the future. This is most likely Madam Eva.

The Standing Stones dedicated to the Forest Fane are thought to be next to the Old Bonegrinder. They were desecrated by Strahd.

Swamp Fane
The Weaver of the Swamp Fane represents the remembrance of the past. She is magical librarian that remembers everything; the keeper of the Weave. This could be Jenny Greenteeth, according to Jenny herself.

The Standing Stones dedicated to the Swamp Fane are across the river next to Berez. They were desecrated by Strahd centuries ago, but in Y735 reconsecrated by Hallgrimm Mikkenson, Narid Ashplantt, and Eklyre Temere.

Mountain Fane
The Huntress of the Mountain Fane represents the dark underside of the weave; she manages the natural cycle of life and death. Jenny stated that she died long ago, however Zuleika Toranescu stated that none of the fanes can be killed. Thought to be Laura, who was found as a prisoner of Baba Lysaga.

The Standing Stones dedicated to the Mountain Fane are thought to be on Yester Hill. They were desecrated by Strahd.

Reconsecration of Fanes
When the party were able to reconsecrate the Swamp Fane they had the following vision:

Strahd looking more furious than he has ever been raises his hand and floods the village flash

You can see a light in the distance of the village, you smell smoke in the distance and hear a woman scream amidst a cracking fire flash

''You see Strahd standing with a beautiful woman, Tatyana, they are almost ready to depart but she asks him one last favour, the opportunity to say goodbye to her family despite them not being able to understand her love. Strahd relents and let's her go. flash''

Vision of Strahd carrying a fane around the circle, spilling blood, Baba Lysaga presents the fanes' heart to him, he licks it flash

Baba Lysaga stands amidst several women bound to the stone menhir, three have had their chests ripped open, she licks a heart, turns and looks as though she spots us, walking towards us flash

''A woman in the middle of the circle has a hand plunge through her chest, her heart is wrenched free and she collapses. Standing before us is Jenny who smiles and takes a bite out of the heart.''
