Dans les années 1670 en Moravie, un enfant de chœur remarque qu'une femme âgée dissimule le pain donné pendant la communion et en informe le prêtre, qui questionne la vieille femme. Elle admet qu'elle a pris le pain pour le donner à une vache afin de réactiver sa production de lait. Le prêtre rapporte l'incident au seigneur local qui, à son tour, en appelle à un inquisiteur spécialisé dans les procès de sorcellerie, Boblig von Edelstadt .
