School Woes

by Tower Curator — Zoe Baxter snapped shut the book in her hands. It was all worthless. She had put a halt to her demonology studies--taking the terminology from Devon--to work on helping one of her new students. No matter how many books she read on the subjects of diseases, debilitations, and illness, none of them had any answers. She'd been up and down every book and hadn't even been able to come up with similar cases, let alone a cure. Zoe was starting to get worried that she would have to delve into far more…

Riot at the Warehouse

by Tower Curator — "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…

Revelations

by Tower Curator — "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…

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…

Reformation

by Tower Curator — Zoe sighed as she walked down the streets of Brakket. Eva insisted that nobody walk around alone. Which, honestly, was not poor advice at the moment. However, she needed time to think. Teleporting straight to Genoa's house wouldn't give her enough time. Or any time, really. Teleporting was near instant. Barring any sudden wards popping up, teleporting would be a perfectly viable escape from any dangerous situation. And she was keeping careful watch for any sign of a ward. A cold wind picked up,…

Recovery

by Tower Curator — Zoe's chest heaved as she took a deep breath of the crisp air within Ylva's domain. She turned to Wayne, letting all the air out in one long sigh. She gave off a half-smile, full of nervousness and worry. "Are we really doing this?" Wayne gave a short grunt. "I've done a lot of crazy things in my life. Jumping head first into Hell will be a new one." "You don't have to come with me." Wayne frowned. He opened his mouth, ready to berate her for saying that. After a moment of silence, he shook his…

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…
