    Definition: Void Domain, A Novel of Demonology, Blood Magic, and Higher Powers


    • Well, here we are. Two and a halfish years. Somewhere around a million words (I haven’t actually added them all up at the time of writing this). Thanks everyone for reading. Void Domain has ended. Honestly, I don’t know what to say. I’ve done nine of these Author’s Note segments. This one feels a bit different though. Probably because there isn’t a ‘tune in…

      Void Domain

      Void Domain Cover
      by Tower Curator Devon stalked around the prison courtyard, staring at the ritual circle drawn out where there had once been a basketball court. Eva's treatment circle. Likely the very final one. He doubted that it was truly necessary. Taking a sample of her blood and examining it with a few spells, Devon had found nothing human about her. He couldn't be sure if it had been her actions during the ritual---which he hadn't seen with his own eyes---or if Void had interfered after pulling her down to Hell. Or perhaps it was…

      Beacon

      Beacon Cover
      by Tower Curator "You really can't leave?" Eva shook her head. Taking one step forward, she fell through the asphalt as if it were nothing more than an illusion and splashed into the waters of Hell. Zoe blinked, glancing left and right to try to find out where she went. Eva took a step back before her professor could panic, she moved back onto the island proper. Which only caused Zoe to jump back with a slight gasp. Closing her eyes momentarily as she let out a short sigh, she said, "You aren't just blinking away and…
    • Snapped Back to Reality Cover
      by Tower Curator Finally Blood flowed out to fill the vacancy where Eva's legs used to be. Enough time had passed that she could form nearly full legs with the amount of blood that she had. They might have been slightly thinner than Arachne's legs, but that wouldn't impact their ability to carry her around in the slightest. After a few more days, she should have enough blood for a proper set of arms and legs. Eva glanced to the side of her leather seat---modeled after the most comfortable chair in Brakket Academy's…

      Deserted

      Deserted Cover
      by Tower Curator Devon stalked down the deserted streets of Brakket City. The streets were more deserted than normal. Few people remained in the city. Only a handful stayed. The brave or the foolish. The apathetic as well. A few stubborn townsfolk hadn't left yet. They had nowhere to go or perhaps they figured that they had weathered everything else, what was one more thing? Some of Brakket Academy's staff had remained behind. Or so he had heard from one of the professors that stopped by the prison on occasion. A…
    • Elysium Reordered Cover
      by Tower Curator Nel Stirling, formerly of the Elysium Order, augur to the Charon Chapter, stood in a position that she had never thought she would occupy. She sat at the head table in the Elysium Grand Cathedral. Not the Salem Cathedral. Not any of their other training centers. The Grand Cathedral. To the Elysium Order, there was no place more central to their power. It was within this building that the leaders resided. Within this building was the vault containing a vial of every augur's blood, ready to be given to…
    • Press Conference Cover
      by Tower Curator After ensuring that she was indeed alone within her domain---she hadn't found any enigmas, humans, or demons wandering around, nor had she sensed the presence of any---Eva returned to the common room to further inspect the column sticking through the roof. As it turns out, it wasn't a column. All four sides angled inwards ever so slightly up until high above the roof where the angle bent sharply towards a central point. She had searched every inch that she could see and found nothing. No markings or…

      Heart of Stone

      Heart of Stone Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva opened her eyes, surprised to find she had eyes to open after watching the avatar being torn apart in the walls of the teleportation tunnel. She had fully expected to be torn apart as well. Even if Void reclaimed her, she would still have awoken in that void where nothing existed save for her mind. Awaking in a familiar place, staring at a familiar cracked sandstone ceiling, Eva let out a soft sigh. The women's ward. Her own bed. Definitely a far cry from the endless abyss that had been her earlier…
    • No Rest for the Demons Cover
      by Tower Curator Catherine sat back on the couch in the women's ward. With her cellphone in hand, she started jotting down notes. Important observations about the previous twenty-four hours that she felt vital enough to jot down. She had nearly perfect memory. The notes were just in case she did manage to forget something. As unlikely as that was. What she really needed to do was to print them out and send them to her domain. The cellphone was an amazing tool that the humans had come up with, but it was no replacement…

      Obelisk

      Obelisk Cover
      by Tower Curator Catherine snapped a quick picture of the ritual circle Devon had devised to close the portals. It could be handy in the future given her other plans. For the moment, it had served its purpose. Magic now spent, the faint glow dimmed and was extinguished, plunging the entrance to Brakket Academy in the dark of the night. As it should be. Her phone's clock and the light of the sky now matched without the portals flooding daylight everywhere. She scanned the dark, starry sky---cleared of any clouds by the…
