Pyramid

by Tower Curator — "And there goes group indigo." "A shame," Zoe said with a shake of her head. "They looked like they were doing so well." "When the tail swiped the... elf into the tree, I think the other two lost their nerves." "Indeed. Dragonkin are not to be taken lightly. Their scales can take a beating that even the finest suit of armor would have trouble holding up against. The students got a little overconfident when they managed to push it back. But if they would have stuck to their attacks rather than…

Press Conference

by Tower Curator — After ensuring that she was indeed alone within her domain---she hadn't found any enigmas, humans, or demons wandering around, nor had she sensed the presence of any---Eva returned to the common room to further inspect the column sticking through the roof. As it turns out, it wasn't a column. All four sides angled inwards ever so slightly up until high above the roof where the angle bent sharply towards a central point. She had searched every inch that she could see and found nothing. No markings or…

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…

Pointed Revelations

by Tower Curator — "Professors Baxter, Kines, and Zagan?" "We're a lot larger this year, probably because of Professor Zagan." The three professors stood in the center of the dueling rings. Franklin Kines spoke to the students about learning combat and a new outline and schedule for the mage-knight club courtesy of Zagan. The majority of it was the same as last year, so Eva felt little need to pay attention. Instead, Eva cast her sight around in full, inspecting everyone she could. Irene was correct. Including…

Pest Removal

by Tower Curator — Devon strode into the Brakket Academy main lobby area with two demons in tow. Once upon a time, doing something so brazen would have gotten him killed without a doubt. Who in their right mind would ever allow a demon summoner and demons into a school? How times had changed. His weren't even the only demons he had spotted around the school. He had spotted a capra demon disguised as a student turning one of the many enigmas into minced meat just outside the entrance to the school. A few nearby human…

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,…

One for the Angles

by Tower Curator — "Construction?" Neuro asked with a frown, toying with of the golden triangles that adorned the tips of the demon's long hair. "Yep. Building a house maybe," Eva said with a shrug. She couldn't really think up anything else it might be. Saija's eyes narrowed to thin slits, glancing off to one side to avoid looking at anyone. Her lips curled back into a teeth-clenched grimace. "Building?" She nudged Irene in the side. "I told you we should have done that last event. How am I supposed to build…

Obelisk

by Tower Curator — Catherine snapped a quick picture of the ritual circle Devon had devised to close the portals. It could be handy in the future given her other plans. For the moment, it had served its purpose. Magic now spent, the faint glow dimmed and was extinguished, plunging the entrance to Brakket Academy in the dark of the night. As it should be. Her phone's clock and the light of the sky now matched without the portals flooding daylight everywhere. She scanned the dark, starry sky---cleared of any clouds by the…

Nel in Hiding

by Tower Curator — "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…

Motivations

by Tower Curator — "I understand that the dean's secretary was filling in during my absence, the topic--" "We discussed rituals again," Mr. Weston all but shouted out as he hopped to his feet. "At first I thought it was going to be some boring thing we already learned last year. Then she started getting into all the gritty details." He paused and glanced around the room with a raised eyebrow. "Or should I say gooey details?" Several snickers ran though several of the students--both male and female. More than a few…
