Return

by Tower Curator — Zoe pinched the bridge of her nose. Wayne had to return soon with news. Between Devon muttering to himself and the constant whining of the demon infesting Shalise's body, Zoe was about ready to hog-tie the two of them and gag their mouths. Especially Shalise. Or Prax. Whoever it was. Keeping Shalise's body available was a must. The worst case scenario would be that entity deciding to return to that giant castle before Eva showed up. Zoe wasn't entirely certain that she could blame it if it…

Results

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…

Rescued

by Tower Curator — Genoa started off with the easy ones. The slow, the sluggish, the immobile. None of them had the ability to move out of the way. Most of the golems had the same weakness. While the sewn on demon bits had strength and durability, their human parts were just as weak as any other human. Their creator had learned a few tricks since the attack on Brakket. A good number of the golems had armored plates stapled onto the human body. One, Genoa noted as she stabbed another through the throat, had a shiny…

Ready for Theft

by Tower Curator — "Wayne isn't coming with us?" Eva asked as she shook off the icy cold of Zoe's method of teleportation. Digging her claws into the brick wall of the building they had appeared next to, she pulled herself into a proper standing position. "I thought you said he would be here." "He will be. He just had to make a brief stop somewhere else first." Rubbing her claws up and down her arms, Eva watched an equally shaky Arachne as she unfolded herself from her smaller spider form. Without a gate nearby,…

Rats

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…

Press-Ganged

by Tower Curator — "Everyone must be on their best behavior," Saija said in a mocking tone of voice. It wasn't hard to guess who she was mocking. Anderson had been running around the entire school, snapping at anything out of place. Which, in his eyes, was just about everything and everyone. Especially anyone who had their uniforms crooked, ate messily, slacked off during class, or breathed too loudly. He had landscapers come in and tidy up every visible plant around Brakket. Eva had been concerned that they might…

Preparations

by Tower Curator — Juliana took in a deep breath of the cool November air and let it back out as a long sigh. The days were getting colder. Not quite cold enough to need a heavy coat, especially not while the sun was still up, but a light jacket wasn't cutting it anymore. Winter was coming late this year, but it was still coming. Soon enough, Juliana would be spending every weekend walking through shoulder-high snow, uphill both ways. After a brief smirk at her own joke, Juliana sighed again. Just when she had been…

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…

Pre-School Chores

by Tower Curator — Eva stopped at the staircase and stared. It is a good thing I asked Zoe to wait outside, she thought. The book showed no one other than herself and Arachne within the building. Clearly that was only partially true. Part of a person lay halfway up the staircase to the second floor. Two legs and part of a torso. Blood splattered around the walls and ceiling, though there was no sign of anything above his shoulders. All dried to the point where Eva could only vaguely tell it was there in the first…

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…
