by Tower Curator — Irene let out a sigh. Something she had been doing a lot of recently. There wasn't really any one thing that was making her sigh, just a lot of little things that all added up. First and foremost would be the knowledge that one of her professors was a demon. A demon that had attacked Juliana and Shalise. Thankfully, he wasn't around anymore. At least, no one had seen him since the 'incident' had happened. His class had been taken over by a substitute with no word on his return or permanent…

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…

Reset

by Tower Curator — Eva, hands clasped behind her back, patrolled along the edge of the ritual circle. More specifically, she paced back and forth in front of the demon hunter and the nun. While the nun had her back pressed against the tree, staring up at the eye through the portals with a slack jaw, the hunter was face-down in the dirt with her mouth slightly to one side. Just enough to endlessly spew nonsensical threats at everyone who walked by. Thankfully, Zoe had stopped by and stilled the air around her head, keeping…

Supply Run

by Tower Curator — Zoe stopped before a well-worn wooden door with a familiar brass handle. She pushed the door open, fully expecting to be welcomed into the bar and parlor by Tom's smiling face. A bright light had her wincing away the second she stepped inside. It took her mind a moment to catch on to the fact that something was wrong. The bar was never brightly lit. Lights were kept perpetually dim. Tom was not a mage, but she had often wondered if he didn't have some sixth sense for incoming customers. The lights…

Relaxation

by Tower Curator — Eva hummed a soft tune to herself. She had never been one for music. Unlike most of the students at her old school, Eva never owned any sort of music player. At her old school, nearly everyone had one. They'd listen to them in the halls, during lunch, and in the classroom if the teacher permitted. She had seen a handful of people with headphones around Brakket, but they were far less prevalent here. As such, her tune was just a formless rhythm. It didn't have any purpose or meaning beyond filling the…

The Invitation

by Tower Curator — A hot fire burned away the cold October air. It crackled and warmed the young instructor's office. The professor sat in her chair, calmly reading through a thin book as the red flames scorched the walls of her fireplace. Zoe Baxter sighed and snapped her book shut. She tossed it into a pile of similar books and grabbed the next book on her stack. It slipped from her tired fingers and clattered to the floor. Zoe didn't bother to pick it up. If the pile of worthless books was any indication, it wouldn't…

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…

Musings on Students

by Tower Curator — It was no wonder that Zoe Baxter had run off. Human children were menaces. The entire lot of them. Even the quiet ones. In fact, they were the worst of all. The others tended to be more honest with their disinterest. They would twiddle with their phones, or their thumbs, or simply ignore her while talking--loudly, more often than not--with their friends. The quiet ones sat, taking notes in their notebooks. They waited for dismissal before gathering their supplies and they always turned on their…

Brakket Magical Academy

by Tower Curator — Classes at Brakket were far more interesting than any class at a non magical school. That was simply by virtue of most classes having magic flying around them. The teachers themselves weren't all that different. Class might be better if Eva had been more new to the whole magic scene. The school building itself was a boring affair. Eva felt sure it was built by regular people. None of the rooms even had the oddities that the dorm study rooms had. The only exception to this was the courtyard. The…

Crystal Courier

by Tower Curator — "To be fair, if she hadn't summoned a demon, Arachne and I wouldn't have known where to look. In fact, we had been heading in the wrong direction prior to her summoning." Both Genoa and Carlos turned away from their daughter to glare at Eva. Behind them, sitting in the living room chair like it was the hot seat in an interrogation room, Juliana looked up and gave Eva a slight smile. A smile that did nothing to offset the intensity of her parents' glares. Under other circumstances, Eva might have wilted…
