      Transference

      Transference Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva vanished. Irene vanished. Worst of all, she was in history class. Easily the most boring class at Brakket. Juliana found most of the practical classes to be fairly dull except on the odd occasion that they let her cast magic at her level instead of the class' level. Zagan's class turned out to be one of the better classes in that regard. Zoe's class was actually her favorite. She often challenged Juliana to think in new and unusual ways. History tended to be the exact opposite. Professor…

      Crystal

      Crystal Cover
      by Tower Curator "Mother?" Shalise hissed, hoping she was being quiet enough that the demon couldn't hear. On the demon's side of things, she did nothing but stand there, ignoring the ongoing battle out in the open area of the room. She wore a polite, almost regal smile. Nowhere near as elegant as some she had seen on Ylva. It might pass as an imitation in the right lighting. Unfortunately, that smile did nothing to calm Shalise down. That wasn't the kind of smile one greeted a friend with. It was something to wear…

      Rats

      Rats Cover
      by Tower Curator Zoe was not enjoying her assignment. It was new magic--new to her, at least. Exactly the kind of magic she liked getting her hands on. But it was all wrong. Zoe had always been a firm proponent of the idea that magic was inherently neutral. Magic that other mages might consider 'white' could be used for nefarious purposes while 'black' magic was just as suited towards helping people as it was to hurting people. Magic was a tool. Nothing more. What someone did with that tool was entirely up to…

      Skirmish

      Skirmish Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva wiped a handful of sweat-soaked dirt from her forehead. The sounds of fighting died off. Except for the goblin things. They apparently still needed to be taught at what point to cease tearing the enemy apart. "All targets down, commander." Nodding at her lieutenant, Eva surveyed the battlefield with a small smile on her face. Everything had gone far better than she had hoped. With direct orders, her soldiers were not as bad as she had originally thought. "Any injuries?" "One of the…

      Recovery

      Recovery Cover
      by Tower Curator Zoe's chest heaved as she took a deep breath of the crisp air within Ylva's domain. She turned to Wayne, letting all the air out in one long sigh. She gave off a half-smile, full of nervousness and worry. "Are we really doing this?" Wayne gave a short grunt. "I've done a lot of crazy things in my life. Jumping head first into Hell will be a new one." "You don't have to come with me." Wayne frowned. He opened his mouth, ready to berate her for saying that. After a moment of silence, he shook his…

      Patched Up

      Patched Up Cover
      by Tower Curator "Eva." The girl in question froze solid. Almost literally. The ambient temperature dropped faster than a lead weight in water. It reached the point where Eva could see her own breath. With a stiff back and tense muscles, she turned around. Her hastily fashioned crutch clanked on the marble tiles during her maneuver. Putting on a polite smile, she performed a cautious bow. "Ylva." "You came through Hell." "I did," Eva said, suppressing a wince. "And I swear, it is not my intention to proceed…

      Vacation

      Vacation Cover
      by Tower Curator Late May air in Florida felt sticky and viscous. Like wading through soup. It was almost nauseating to breathe in. Air up in Montana was dry. Even in the middle of winter with snow covering the ground, the air remained dry. Eva's first breath after teleporting in had felt almost like she was drowning. Even after spending a few days wandering the streets, her skin still felt far too moist. Like she was in constant need of a shower. She had this constant sheen coating her like sweat. Even on top of…

      Of Demons and Demonhood

      Of Demons and Demonhood Cover
      by Tower Curator Finding Catherine wasn't half as hard as Eva had imagined it would be. Really, quite the opposite. It was as simple as walking into the Brakket Academy main building and heading for the secretary's desk in the reception area. Catherine sat at her usual desk, absolutely absorbed in whatever was on her computer monitor. Eva had no idea why she had expected anything different. It was doubtful that she had a home outside of her secretary desk. A few minutes of standing around, waiting for Catherine…

      Rage

      Rage Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva snapped into being on the gate she had made within her new dormitory room. She wasn't even that wobbly from the teleport. Still, she took a moment to steady herself before moving around. In that moment, she glanced around. Both with her eyes and her less mundane senses. She immediately froze. The very first thing that she noticed was Zagan. She couldn't see him, but she could feel him. His overwhelming presence occluded everything else. Whatever had happened, he wasn't trying to hide in the…

      by Tower Curator Eva flopped over on her bed. "Ah, I'm tired," she mumbled to nobody in particular. Nobody else was around. Juliana and Shalise had gone over to Genoa's house to watch the event. Irene, Jordan, and Shelby were all there as well, along with Saija, Srey, and Vektul. A gathering that might have had Eva worried for their safety from demon hunters had she not been so tired. Especially because she was relatively certain that Genoa had participated in the event as an antagonist to one of the…
