      Collapse

      Collapse Cover
      by Tower Curator Arkk had a brief window of reprieve. He had to make the best of it. After changing their tactics, the airship overhead fired all their cannons at once, then the whale ship spewed eggs, both took a few minutes of rest following that—presumably, time taken to reset things for their next attack. The main army was outside the tower, reevaluating their tactics. Evestani was about to engage with Mags and his men. Arkk did not like the idea of leaving the tower during the battle. He could move about…

      Eggs Cover
      by Tower Curator “How do you suppose the others are fairing?” Olatt’an leaned back in his seat, closing his eyes. “Certainly a difficult question,” he said. “Idealistically, quite well. Realistically? The situation is pure chaos. Four different factions on two different sides, none of whom seem to trust their supposed allies, all likely believing they have tricks up their sleeves that the others don’t know about. All of whom likely believe they can deal with whatever tricks the others have come up with,…

      Descendant

      Descendant Cover
      by Tower Curator Dakka stood back, watching with narrowed eyes. The legs of the walking fortress were equipped with magimechanical defenses, a joint venture by Perr’ok and Morvin. There wasn’t much to them. Metal wheels attached to a magical array that made the wheels spin. The large scythes attached to the wheels turned them into defenses that should have sliced-n-diced any human who dared to walk into it. It worked. The first of the invaders stopped short, not daring to move forward. A few at the front tried…

      Fulcrum Cover
      by Tower Curator “It’s good to see you again.” Ilya nodded her head, clasping hands with Hawkwood. She had wondered where White Company’s leader and its remnants had gone. The last she saw of him, he had been playing attendant to Prince Cedric. A fairly concerning position given the Prince’s reputation. When he dropped off the face of the world, Arkk had feared the worst. It was nice to know that fear was entirely unfounded. “You as well,” Ilya said. “Shame Arkk isn’t here. He would have been…

      Reinforcements Arrive

      Reinforcements Arrive Cover
      by Tower Curator Frying the bastards was easier said than done. Arkk stood out in the gale caused by the tower’s defensive spells, staring up at where he thought the enemy craft should be. He couldn’t see it. Even if the twisting winds weren’t there, he doubted he would have been able to see the ship. It was just so far above them that his pitiful human eyes couldn’t see more than a black spot that the rest of the sky bled over. Electro Deus didn’t like not having a target. On the rare occasions he had…

      Hunkered Down

      Hunkered Down Cover
      by Tower Curator It was a rather novel experience to ascend a set of stairs without moving one’s legs. To be more accurate, it was the stairs that were moving, lifting up into the upper reaches of the factory before, through some sort of magic or machinery, returning to the bottom to continue the unbroken staircase. It wasn’t the first time she had ridden such a contraption but this was the longest. “I have received a report.” Agnete turned to her side, looking over Who with a mild frown. The construct,…
