Slight Delay
"Hank Hanson here at Brakket City coming to you with another live report. A series of earthquakes have torn through the city over the past few days. Today has had a few particularly bad ones. I have been in talks with Alexander Anderson, acting dean here at Brakket Academy. He does not believe that they are magically instigated; however, he has assured me that he has people investigating the possibility." The camera drone pulled back, moving away from Hank's award-winning smile to display an overview of…-

No Rest for the Demons
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…-

Alchemy: Potions
"The first potion we will brew is a simple one. Despite its simplicity, it tends to be one of the most useful." Professor Lurcher held up a small flask of light blue liquid. "It goes by many names depending on where you are. Anything from a quick fix elixir to the ostentatious 'panacea.'" Irene jotted down every word into her notebook. Potions, and alchemy in general, was not her best subject nor the one she was most interested in. That made it all the more important to pay attention. It wasn't that…-

Theory: Simulacra
Zoe Baxter glanced over her fourth year theory class. Despair touched her heart as she scanned the vacant faces. Only two students looked happy to be in class. Most showed up out of routine or obligation. At some point over the years, all the wonder of learning faded. The students found other things more important. Relationships, job searches, pressures from peers and parents, all contributed to the dampening of their yearning to learn. Few things could be more tragic. And these were only fourth…-

Theory: Order, Chaos, Blink
A gloved hand shot up in front of Irene. "Yes, Miss Eva. I'm well aware you think you're a chaos mage. You're not." There were a few chuckles around the classroom as Eva slowly lowered her hand. Irene just rolled her eyes. The students quieted as Professor Baxter began speaking again. "The fact that you are unable to use any water magic is proof enough that you are a pyrokinetic. However, you do make for an excellent example. "Miss Eva has demonstrated the ability to blink as well as the…-

All of the following is completely optional to read. This is no narrative. It in no way affects the story. I’m mostly going to ramble for a few words. Hello, thanks for reading. Book four will continue as scheduled. No intermissions, no interludes. Tune in next time for 004.001. I thoroughly enjoyed myself while writing book three. It was lots of fun the entire…

The Seminar
The outdoor auditorium where most of the summer seminars were held had a nice atmosphere. Seats surrounded a small circular platform on a raised dais down in the center of the area. On the platform, a wall of cushions had been set up and a waist high pile of silver marbles lay at the other end. The auditorium was at the very edge of campus, somewhat near a small lake. An overgrowth of plants and trees spread out from the forest behind the platform. A single pointed mountain lay in the distance almost…-

Genoa Rivas
A white-robed nun stood outside each of the dormitory buildings. One in the short pathway leading to the Rickenbacker and one on the opposite end of the street in front of the Gillet. Eva froze at the sight of them. There was still a good distance between her and the dorms. She spun and headed down an alley in the entertainment area just outside of the dorms. The thick snow crunched under her feet as she ran to a secluded spot. "Arachne," she whispered, "there are Elysium nuns outside the…-

Investigations
"Carter." "Yes. That's what the card says." The nun glanced back down at the small scrap of paper in her hands. Her eyes flicked back to Devon and narrowed. "Expert demonologist?" "Yes. The card says that too. I'm glad the Elysium Order doesn't stifle the budget for reading lessons." The white-robed nun didn't appear to be listening. Her eyes flared white and she started glancing around. Devon hopped back, worried she might actually attack. "Where's your demon," she growled. It wasn't a…-

Riot at the Warehouse
"Get out of our town!" "...more damage than..." "...cost us our livelihoods." Martina Turner stalked through the gathered crowd with a grin on her face. Of course, it was well hidden in the shadows of her hood. Plenty others in the crowd had hoods. She wouldn't be singled out because of it. Her entire attire changed simply to avoid being recognized. It was amazing how wearing a distinctive costume every day made people's gazes shift right over her when she changed to more normal clothing. Of…-
