Pesta is a muted, dark purple colourway with purple and black speckles. Pesta is a figure of illness, representing death, often appearing in the form of an ugly old woman dressed i n black. She was more specifically the personification of the Black Death which took the lives of many in Scandinavian countries. Pesta travels from farm to farm in her story, carrying a rake and a broom and spreading the plague. If she was carrying a rake, then some of the people at the farm might survive. However, if she was carrying a broom, everyone in the family would die. Show more
