      Status Reports Cover
      by Tower Curator "Nothing." Eva nodded. It came easily. No big disappointment in Nel's words. She hadn't expected much from the ex-nun. "That's fine," Eva said. "I'd appreciate it if you kept trying, but you don't need to dedicate every moment of your time." "Of course I will!" Nel slammed her palms down on her marble altar. "I want that man dead as much as you. No! More than you." She pulled up the sleeve of her robe. The augur's arm was looking much better than it had back when Eva first woke up. A good half…

      Void Domain

      Void Domain Cover
      by Tower Curator Devon stalked around the prison courtyard, staring at the ritual circle drawn out where there had once been a basketball court. Eva's treatment circle. Likely the very final one. He doubted that it was truly necessary. Taking a sample of her blood and examining it with a few spells, Devon had found nothing human about her. He couldn't be sure if it had been her actions during the ritual---which he hadn't seen with his own eyes---or if Void had interfered after pulling her down to Hell. Or perhaps it was…
    • Book Nine Epilogue Cover
      by Tower Curator "Lucy?" Eva called out as she crept into the dormitory room assigned to the demon in question. Unlike the student demons---who were all housed in the Rickenbacker---Lucy's assigned room was over in the Gillet. Eva honestly didn't think that she had ever been inside. It was eerie. She was so used to everything being where it was in the Rickenbacker that walking inside its identical twin sent shivers down her spine. Everything was mirrored. Instead of turning left at the top of the stairs, she had to turn…
    • Book Eight Epilogue Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva stood in the middle of a small clearing. Not the one a short distance from her prison. This clearing was out in the Infinite Courtyard in the center of Brakket Academy's main building. This would hopefully prove to be a much safer alternative. Or at least, more difficult to reach for the hunters. One, perhaps the more troublesome one, was dead. If Eva didn't miss her mark, the other might return with something of a grudge. Assuming she didn't starve to death because she couldn't feed herself…
    • Book Seven Epilogue Cover
      by Tower Curator Juliana stopped outside the front door of a smaller home on the outskirts of the city. The very outskirts. It was difficult to get farther away without technically being outside the city limits. Houses out here were few and far between. Brakket City wasn't much of a city to begin with, but out here, it was basically farmland. Abandoned farmland. Real rural area. With the abysmally low price of houses and her family's own wealth, it hadn't been much of an issue to purchase one. Juliana's father had…
    • Book Six Epilogue Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva smiled as she leaned back, enjoying the warm rays of the sun. It was a nice day out. A nice blue sky with a few clouds, just enough to provide the occasional spot of shade. There wasn't much wind, not even a light breeze. Eva wasn't complaining. It wasn't hot enough in early April to need a breeze and the lack of wind kept her long hair from flailing about. The only things truly off about the day were the violet streaks that hung overhead. They were almost invisible against the blue hues of the…
    • Book Four Epilogue Cover
      by Tower Curator Juliana awoke with a start, eyes stinging as a few droplets of sweat fell. Another nightmare, she thought, lifting her head from where it rested on her mother's bed. At least this one had something more than just her mother dying in various horrifying ways. It had been a reminder about something she had forgotten. Something she couldn't allow to remain forgotten. "This is not a long-term care ward." The light in the infirmary was set as low as it could possibly go without actually being off.…
    • Book Two Epilogue Cover
      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 One Epilogue Cover
      by Tower Curator "Spencer!" Eva crushed a glass vial in her hands. She glared up at the teacher. Or the black band of leather over her eyes glared up. "Gloves off in this class unless they're lab gloves." "I was doing fine until you shouted at me." "You'll soak up materials you don't want to walk around with." Professor Lurcher glowered down at the girl. "Gloves off." The steel spoon bent in her other hand. Grains of paradise spilled over the table. Eva grit her teeth. She threw down the spoon with a clatter…
    • A Vampire, a Demon, and a Nun Walk into a Bar… Cover
      by Tower Curator If Eva had been regretting the ritual before, she was now thinking that it just might be the death of her. Sawyer was still dissecting corpses around the ritual ring. By the looks of things, he would be at it for a while. Which gave Eva plenty of time to focus on the events around her, despite the queasy feeling it gave her. As they moved, first to a van and then from the van to a small smoke-filled bar, Eva held on to Nel. Both for support and because she had decided to wear her blindfold. While…
