Chapter
Elysium Sister
A second crack tore through the alley, bringing with it a blinding light. Eva heard her master cry out in pain. The demon who tackled her quickly tore herself free and moved between the attacks and Eva. She almost charged forward, but something caused her to hesitate. Eva, on the other hand, didn't hesitate for a second. She whipped out two vials of her blood. The first was poured in a small circle, setting the radius and center point. The second vial was used to form a golf-ball sized globule…-

Nel in Hiding
"An attack?" "Indeed." Eva watched her master's reactions carefully as he soaked up the details of what happened. Zoe Baxter seemed calm while delivering the news, but her master's heart rate jumped. Arachne stood behind Eva's chair with her arms wrapped around Eva, stoic in her expressions as usual. Her heart tube thing didn't change its pulses in the slightest. She was almost sad that she had missed it. It sounded like a lot of fun to watch. It was her first day out of the infirmary and…-

Book Two Epilogue
You saved my life. I'll spare yours. This one time. Do not test my goodwill. Eva frowned as Arachne read the three lines again. There was no signature, but it didn't take a lot of guesses to figure out the sender. Eva could only recall saving one life in her recent memory. Maybe. Zagan agreed to not kill her. As long as he was planning on following through with that, Eva didn't actually need to interfere. How Sister Cross got the note onto her pillow without either waking Eva or alerting…-

Revelations
"What does it mean?" Neither of them had dared to speak for the longest time. Her voice felt dry and hoarse--though not simply because of the time. What they watched drained all the moisture from her mouth. Most of it had gathered on the palms of her hands. Jordan shook his head as the shadows around them faded back into the background. He'd waited long enough. It had been several minutes since anyone walked by. "The professor is a demon of some sort," Jordan said. "I'm certain of that. Not as…-

Loyalty
Abominations this, sacrifice for the people that. Does Brother Maynard never tire of hearing himself speak? Standing at attention while listening to speeches about the glory of a combat death in the service of fellow men was possibly one of the most tedious things Ali had ever experienced. Especially when, despite the necromancer being present, their primary goal was the hunting of one of their own. The rogue augur Nel Stirling would surely be comforted by the false sorrow projected by Brother…-

School Business
Returning to school just wasn't quite the same. It didn't feel right. So much had happened and so much was going to happen that sitting in class and practicing thaumaturgy just felt unimportant. Like being concerned over a mosquito bite while bleeding out from a missing arm. Eva leaned back in her chair and shut her eyes. She was supposed to be practicing heat manipulation. None of Isaac Calvin's directions actually made it to her conscious thoughts. The unending swirl and churn of her worries and…-

Chapter
Gone Wrong
Eva kicked back in her chair, flipping a page in her blood magic book. It wasn't an extremely comfortable seat, being a simple wooden seat she had dragged over. There wasn't any padding on it and its back was far too low. Padding didn't matter much. Her legs were stiff carapace and her butt had been reinforced--for lack of a better word--around where her legs met her skin. It was far from the worst chair she had ever sat in. The most uncomfortable aspect was the hole that was still in her side. Eva…-

Iced
The demon's gaping maw snapped shut mere inches in front of Irene's face. Inches only because something gripped her arm and pulled. Irene didn't stop inches from the demon. The force on her arm kept her going. She flew backward, rolling into a table that had been pushed to the edge of the room. Pain in her shoulder and upper arm forced her to cry out as she came to a stop. Even through her shirt, Irene could see an unpleasant lump. Her arm wasn't where it was supposed to be. Gripping her…-

Complications
Irene sat in her seat, shifting back and forth. Her first day back in diablery class had her feeling intensely nervous. She had been the one to cause the brief intermission in their lessons. Surprisingly enough, the rest of the class wasn't staring at her in one way or another. She had expected a glare or two at least. She did almost cause them injury--from their perspective. Or worse. Perhaps those that were the type to glare had already been kicked out of class. Those that were left tended to…-

Chapter
Split
Shalise jumped to her feet, ready for another attack. Lynn was at her side in an instant. It was somewhat off-putting. Lynn's lightning and fire was far more effective at dealing with the enigmas than anything Shalise could put out. Sure, her muscles were strong and afforded her a certain level of toughness that she would otherwise lack, but not a single one of the creatures had actually made it within grappling range since Eva had brought along Lynn. She shouldn't be complaining, but Lynn just…-
