Summer

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…

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…

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…

Loyalty

by Tower Curator — Abominations this, sacrifice for the people that. Does Brother Maynard never tire of hearing himself speak? Standing at attention while listening to speeches about the glory of a combat death in the service of fellow men was possibly one of the most tedious things Ali had ever experienced. Especially when, despite the necromancer being present, their primary goal was the hunting of one of their own. The rogue augur Nel Stirling would surely be comforted by the false sorrow projected by Brother…

Leakage

by Tower Curator — Catherine's heels clicked in a steady rhythm as she walked down the empty hallway of Brakket Academy. She considered running. The quicker she made it home, the sooner she could join in on her clan's planned raid against those pathetic humans and elves. Well, they were all humans--probably--including her own team. But her team had chosen the demonic race, so their hearts were in the right place. As it was, she was already a full half hour late because of 'secretarial duties' that she had been…

Complications

by Tower Curator — Irene sat in her seat, shifting back and forth. Her first day back in diablery class had her feeling intensely nervous. She had been the one to cause the brief intermission in their lessons. Surprisingly enough, the rest of the class wasn't staring at her in one way or another. She had expected a glare or two at least. She did almost cause them injury--from their perspective. Or worse. Perhaps those that were the type to glare had already been kicked out of class. Those that were left tended to…

Bullies

by Tower Curator — Eva spun on her heel and caught the rock out of the air. It was small and not pointed. That was a relief at least. Her fellow students weren't trying to kill her. It crumbled under the might of her claws. Too easy, far too easy. Probably had been designed to shatter on impact to create dust and a large mark on her back. Unbelievable. "A-are you alright?" "Fine," Eva ground out while giving a long, hard glare at the group of three students that stood where the rock had come from. She knew which…

Breaking and Entering

by Tower Curator — "This is it?" Zoe nodded along with Devon's words. She had to double-check the address to be certain, but this was the building. There were certain places that certain people tended to gravitate towards. A doctor might be found in a hospital or a well-to-do home. Police stations generally housed officers. If she were looking for a grave robber, Zoe would start at a cemetery at night. A brightly lit five-star hotel in the center of a moderately sized town was the last place she would have looked…

Book Two Epilogue

by Tower Curator — You saved my life. I'll spare yours. This one time. Do not test my goodwill. Eva frowned as Arachne read the three lines again. There was no signature, but it didn't take a lot of guesses to figure out the sender. Eva could only recall saving one life in her recent memory. Maybe. Zagan agreed to not kill her. As long as he was planning on following through with that, Eva didn't actually need to interfere. How Sister Cross got the note onto her pillow without either waking Eva or alerting…

Book Three Epilogue

by Tower Curator — "Has she woken up yet?" Shelby stirred at the soft voice. She pulled herself out of the puddle of drool that had gathered on her sister's bed. Wiping off her cheek, she looked towards the doorway. "I don't think so. What--" An involuntary yawn drowned out her words. "What time is it?" "Ten o'clock in the morning," Jordan said as he pulled up a chair. "I was just talking with Nurse East. He said that she should be waking up anytime now." "That would be nice," Shelby said as she looked back down…
