A Crack in the Sky

by Tower Curator — "Alright! Let's move!" Eva shouted out over the somewhat smoldering field. Arachne was a short distance away, clearing out a few tumbleweeds. Vektul and Srey were both near each other and, as such, near Eva as well. As soon as Arachne heard the shout, she dropped her tumbleweed to the ground and started running towards Eva without hesitation. As she ran, Eva took the time to extinguish her lingering flames. While she wanted to burn down a good portion of the area, she didn't want to start an…

Preparation

by Tower Curator — "I don't see why you need me for this." Juliana's concentration collapsed. Along with it went the few particles of iron that she had managed to conjure up. She took a deep breath and let it out as a long sigh. "All that progress. Gone. Just like that." "Progress? You've been standing in one spot for the last hour doing nothing." "Didn't you see all the iron? I conjured that." "I saw nothing." "Then you weren't looking." Arachne glanced off to the side, looking back towards the…

Paranoia

by Tower Curator — Vague directions, as it turned out, were not the best ways to find people. Especially not people who were spying on Eva and probably knew that she was on her way to find them. Given the time it had taken to gather everyone up, their spy would have had plenty of time to move. Srey ended up bringing everyone to a stop in an alley some distance from the school. "This is the spot." Eva glanced around, looking for any sign that someone had been around. Her sense of blood wasn't picking anything up.…

Saija and Srey

by Tower Curator — "Weren't you supposed to go back and visit your mother tonight?" Juliana glanced over to Shalise and shrugged. "Still plenty of tonight left." "But... why are we here?" Leaning back in the booth, Juliana snacked on a plate of chips. "There aren't many places open in the evenings." Shalise frowned, sulking slightly in her third of the booth, leaning into the corner. Her dislike of the location was understandable, though not very sensible. The Vertex club had a bit of history with Shalise. It…

Vektul

by Tower Curator — "When he said help, he was talking about Void, right?" Arachne shrugged. "What else would it be?" "Well, I don't know. He was obviously talking to me and not you. You're the one who has been given the mission, not me." "Is there something you need help with?" Arachne paused in her weaving, looking straight at Eva. "You know you only need to ask me." Flopping down on the women's ward couch, Eva shook her head. "I don't think I need help with anything. Not right now. But he might have been…

Uncomfortable Attentions

by Tower Curator — "Welcome. To some of you, this will be a welcome back. To others, an initial greeting. "This year, we will be making history with our students and among other schools around the country. We will be blah blah blah." Eva filled in her own words in place of the new dean's speech. She already knew what was happening. For the most part, at least. Really, she didn't know why she had bothered attending. Beginning of the year speeches were never interesting, this one least of all because of her…

Power Overwhelming

by Tower Curator — Eva snapped her eyes open. She took a deep breath, glancing around as she took in her surroundings. She was on her back, staring up at the starry sky. Arachne, Catherine, and Qrycx the carnivean all stood around her with Arachne being the closest. Hovering over her with occasional glares at the other demons, Arachne had a protective air about her. It couldn't have been too long since the end of the ritual. Pre-ritual, everything had gone roughly the same as last time. Obviously Zagan wasn't around…

Surgery

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…

The Powers that Be

by Tower Curator — Coughing twice, Zoe waved a hand in front of her face. A quick order shield had been enough to deflect most of the debris. Dust still made it through. While it was possible to make a shield airtight, it generally wasn't a good idea if she wanted to breathe for more than a few moments. Of course, she hadn't anticipated all the dirt being thrown up into the air, effectively blocking off her breathing anyway. With a whip of her dagger, Zoe quickly cleared away the dirt around her, filling the space with…

Out Camping

by Tower Curator — Just as Nel had described, the camp was deserted. Halfway around the world, a small forest held a small camp. Two small-sized tents occupied a small clearing. A fire pit in the center still had some smoldering embers amidst plenty of ash. A bench and a makeshift table looked as if they had been fashioned from the surrounding woods. That and magic. With Shalise being an air mage, she would be able to use blades of wind in place of an axe. Eva wasn't sure if Shalise was adept enough at magic to do so,…
