      Clairaudience

      Clairaudience Cover
      by Tower Curator "It was trying to climb up onto the counter. I just added spikes to the bottom of my shoes and stomped on it. Professor Baxter and Sister Cross came into the room a moment later." Eva leaned back, listening to Juliana's story. She'd already heard it once, though that one was a lot different. A shame really. All the good parts were left out of this version. Of course, the audience might not be able to take the unsanitized version. Irene sat across from Eva. Her pork riblets had been shoved to the…

      Ylva | Out of the Fire

      Ylva | Out of the Fire Cover
      by Tower Curator Juliana ran out of the small building titled Womens Ward. Even without asking her, Zoe could see the blond hadn't found her roommate. Truly a troublesome student. If Eva just ran off somewhere with Mr. Carter without telling anyone, Zoe would be sticking a tracking tag on the girl. If she hadn't run off... well, she would probably still be getting a tracking tag, so long as she came back in one piece. "I couldn't go into her room," Juliana said, "but I made a lot of noise at the door. I don't…

      Combat Class

      Combat Class Cover
      by Tower Curator "Come on, it'll be fun." Eva shared a glance with Juliana. Both girls sighed. Shalise quirked her head to one side as she shoved a spoonful of lasagna and bean pie into her mouth. Eva couldn't actually see the meal, but she could smell it. She was very glad she didn't often get hungry for lunch. "I'm going," Jordan said. "Me too," Shelby piped up quickly. Max shook his head. After finishing his food--someone had mentioned his bad habit over the last few months, Eva wasn't sure who--he…

      Confrontation

      Confrontation Cover
      by Tower Curator "I need a shower." "You say that every other session." "Every other session is a workout session," Shelby wiped her forehead on her sleeve. "Look at this. Its gross." Jordan brushed her arm off to one side. "If it is so gross, don't rub it in my face." "Don't be such a baby. It is only sweat." "You're the one who called it gross in the first place." Shalise giggled at her friends' antics. Since Professor Kines' combative magic club started, the pair had grown closer. Shelby always hung…

      The Gift

      The Gift Cover
      by Tower Curator Marble makes nice flooring, Juliana decided. It wasn't as warm feeling or looking as hard wood, but it looked nice. Especially when the floor was as well polished as the flooring in Ylva's throne room. Zoe looked distinctly uncomfortable as she knelt before the throne. It was an odd sight to see the stern and relatively powerful teacher kneel down. She probably took it as a blow to her pride. Kneeling in the presence of her students couldn't help; one of whom knew Zoe from before school started while…

      Runic Experimentation

      Runic Experimentation Cover
      by Tower Curator The last few scribbles made their way from one paper to the next. Eva wasn't using her good ink. This was just a test. Besides, the less of the good ink Eva used, the more funds she had. While the privacy rune packs were profitable to be sure, it was still money from kids. Kids without a lot of money for the most part. Drastically overestimating the budget for her supplies to her new employer was like taking candy from a baby. A really rich baby that had no identifiable source of income. Funny how…

      School Woes

      School Woes Cover
      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…

      Prison Prep

      Prison Prep Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva took a moment to relax. On Ylva's throne. It wasn't easy. The throne was carved out of the same black marble the rest of the throne platform was made from. It had no cushions, no curvature, and it was far too large. Eva couldn't sit with her back against the throne's back without her calves hitting the relatively sharp edge of the seat. The hel was a skeleton while sitting on the throne. Maybe her nerves didn't function in that form. Maybe they didn't function anyway; she was barely better than a…

      Assault

      Assault Cover
      by Tower Curator The field wasn't any different in person. Not that Eva had expected it to be. Her ritual gave her a perfect picture of exactly what Sawyer saw and felt. She had already known how the place would look, feel, and smell. Looking at it with her own eyes didn't matter in the slightest. In fact, she was actually feeling better than any time that she had visited through Sawyer's eyes. The ritual was fading away. In an hour, maybe two, it would have run its course, leaving Eva all by her self. She could…

      Rain on a Parade

      Rain on a Parade Cover
      by Tower Curator "Well that... that... that just rains on my parade!" Clement pulled the binoculars away from his face to glance towards his partner. Gertrude was leaning half over the edge of the roof with the visor from his armor pressed against her eyes. Her mouth was twisted into a pout. With a gentle hand, Clement pulled her back. She wouldn't die from the fall. They were on top of some sort of dancing club for the students to waste time in, it was only a few stories high. The idea that she would even be injured…
