The Gift

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…

Confrontation

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…

Courtyard Meeting

by Tower Curator — The end of class chime stopped Bradley Twillie's lecture on eloko. They were a species of dwarf that prefer forests over the underground mountains of their cousins. A small group apparently lived not far from Brakket. Curses that they put on unaware explorers and hikers were of particular interest to Eva. The one that caused traveler's senses to swap seemed particularly interesting. Professor Twillie wasn't entirely clear, but it sounded like the curse made someone smell sounds, see touches, hear light,…

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…

Meeting

by Tower Curator — Wayne Lurcher downed his second glass of absinthe. She could have just told me. It would have been better that way. None of this skulking about, avoiding and ignoring needed to happen. What did she think I would have done? After all the dubious magic I taught her. Of course, he hadn't been entirely truthful on the origins of most of that magic. But still, she was the premier magical theorist. Surely she could have guessed. She had to have known that there was no chance Wayne would bring hunters to…

Investigations

by Tower Curator — "Carter." "Yes. That's what the card says." The nun glanced back down at the small scrap of paper in her hands. Her eyes flicked back to Devon and narrowed. "Expert demonologist?" "Yes. The card says that too. I'm glad the Elysium Order doesn't stifle the budget for reading lessons." The white-robed nun didn't appear to be listening. Her eyes flared white and she started glancing around. Devon hopped back, worried she might actually attack. "Where's your demon," she growled. It wasn't a…

Lynn’s Conclusion

by Tower Curator — Eva slumped over her desk. Basila lay curled up on top. Eva lightly prodded the sleeping sculpture, poking the side of its scaly head. It didn't seem to like that. Every now and again, it would snap at her finger. Some kind of mental conditioning kept it from biting hard or with its fangs. It ended up suckling around Eva's spindly finger. That only made Eva prod it more. Her master didn't have any useful advice about her eyes. He only said, "don't take the first deal you hear," and stalked off to…

Treatment

by Tower Curator — Hot air permeated the entire building. The pleasant kind of hot air. It wrapped around and enveloped Eva. She didn't need all the heating runes covering her clothes here. She didn't even need clothes, but she couldn't muster the energy to pull them off. Eva reclined with a soft sigh, sinking deeper into the cushions of the couch. All of her aches and pains leaked out into the leather. The couch accepted all of it without complaint. If it did complain, she might have been a little worried. Her…

Botany and The Bar

by Tower Curator — Irene dug her fingers into the moist soil. The small hole grew as she wiggled her fingers. As smooth and soft as the magically modified dirt was, she could feel it grinding underneath her fingernails. She had to purchase a fingernail brush for this class alone. Her nails were clipped short and she'd long given up painting them. Other students wore gloves to avoid getting dirt on their hands. Irene's hands instantly turned into balls of sweat the moment gloves touched her. Her hand snapped back to her…

Combat Class

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…
