      Surgery

      Surgery Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva popped into the gate room of the women's ward. As Arachne hopped off her and grew back to her full height, Eva pulled out her cellphone and sent Zoe a message stating that she had put out the fires and was taking a rest at the prison. Not entirely true, but not a lie either. At least it would keep her from worrying when Eva didn't end up at the apartments. Heading out of the gate room and into her own room, Eva added a fresh bit of blood to her warding scheme. It was somewhat annoying that she…

      Supply Run

      Supply Run Cover
      by Tower Curator Zoe stopped before a well-worn wooden door with a familiar brass handle. She pushed the door open, fully expecting to be welcomed into the bar and parlor by Tom's smiling face. A bright light had her wincing away the second she stepped inside. It took her mind a moment to catch on to the fact that something was wrong. The bar was never brightly lit. Lights were kept perpetually dim. Tom was not a mage, but she had often wondered if he didn't have some sixth sense for incoming customers. The lights…

      Summer

      Summer Cover
      by Tower Curator Trees whisked past. Brush and ground vanished into the distance. Long, black hair trailed through the air gracefully, almost parallel to the ground. She was a sight to see. At least, that's how Eva imagined it. The sad reality was that her hair clung to the sweat on her back in a giant, tangled rat's nest. It would take a lot of work to get it back to the normal. Next time, Eva thought, I'll put it up in a bun. Still, Eva couldn't help but to laugh. She hadn't run since November and she hadn't…
    • Substitutiary Locomotion Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva seethed. It took a great deal of willpower to not blink behind him and take off his head. He was a student. She couldn't just kill him. Not without inviting all kinds of trouble at least. To the side, Srey edged closer to Juliana. He slipped just behind her, peeking out over her shoulder. It took Eva a moment to figure out what he was doing. Really, she should have realized based on how all the demons reacted around her. He was cowering behind a human. And he was leaving his back open to a…

      Stuck Together

      Stuck Together Cover
      by Tower Curator Catherine glanced back and forth between the two arguing people. She never would have expected Baxter to take her side. The professor had not left her with the impression that she was well liked when she kicked Catherine out of her classroom the last time she got injured. Few humans would side with a demon in the first place, though the point may have been moot. The sides were between Catherine and Ylva. "We cannot allow her to leave. She will betray Us the moment she perceives a lack of…

      Stress

      Stress Cover
      by Tower Curator Ylva didn't sleep. At all. Zoe wasn't quite sure what she expected, but she had laid out a fairly fancy bed for the demon. She had a gigantic bed in her domain, after all. Unless that entire thing was solely for Nel. It wasn't until the first week had passed that Zoe got any kind of real sleep in. Her time was spent watching Ylva. Waiting for her to do something. On the first night, Ylva had gone around and inspected seemingly every object in Zoe's apartment. Some, she would pass by with barely…

      Status Reports

      Status Reports Cover
      by Tower Curator "Nothing." Eva nodded. It came easily. No big disappointment in Nel's words. She hadn't expected much from the ex-nun. "That's fine," Eva said. "I'd appreciate it if you kept trying, but you don't need to dedicate every moment of your time." "Of course I will!" Nel slammed her palms down on her marble altar. "I want that man dead as much as you. No! More than you." She pulled up the sleeve of her robe. The augur's arm was looking much better than it had back when Eva first woke up. A good half…

      Stalkers

      Stalkers Cover
      by Tower Curator "I volunteer." Everyone in the room turned to look at Eva. Nobody knew what the event would be. Wallace Redford had been keeping extremely tight lipped about the matter. Eva knew that more than one demon had tried following him around. Probably several humans as well. Then there were the other schools which probably had their own spies. If they had found anything, they weren't sharing. They were supposed to be discussing possibilities. Personally, Eva was just hoping for straight up combat. Maybe…

      Split

      Split Cover
      by Tower Curator 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…

      Splatter

      Splatter Cover
      by Tower Curator Razor-edged talons sunk into the wooden wall next to Genoa's face. The partially collapsed building groaned, protesting the force, but otherwise stayed intact. Which was great. Genoa didn't much care for buildings collapsing on top of her. She had enough of that raiding unstable ruins for the guild. Though, at least she wasn't being actively attacked by hundreds upon hundreds of monsters in those ruins. Maybe there was a tomb guardian of some sort, but that usually capped out at one or two. The…
