Riot at the Warehouse

by Tower Curator — "Get out of our town!" "...more damage than..." "...cost us our livelihoods." Martina Turner stalked through the gathered crowd with a grin on her face. Of course, it was well hidden in the shadows of her hood. Plenty others in the crowd had hoods. She wouldn't be singled out because of it. Her entire attire changed simply to avoid being recognized. It was amazing how wearing a distinctive costume every day made people's gazes shift right over her when she changed to more normal clothing. Of…

Sister Hubbard’s Fatal Mistake

by Tower Curator — Rapid breaths echoed inside her helmet. Every breath in was warm, stuffy, and stale. Every breath out moistened the air further. Juliana blinked away the extra liquid on her eyes. With a quick thought, she widened up the mouth holes in an attempt at sucking in more oxygen. A few slits for extra ventilation opened up around her cheeks. Figuring out the exact balance between protection and breathability was more of guesswork than anything. Acquiring a book on medieval knight helmets might not be such a…

Runic Experimentation

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…

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…

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,…

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…

The Bull

by Tower Curator — Her hug was only stiffly returned. She pulled away from the target of her embrace and glanced over her friend. Shalise took one look at Eva and her stomach sank. "Y-your eyes... that isn't from when you saved me, is it?" Eva just tilted her head to the side in a confused look. She leaned slightly against Juliana's desk. "No. Why would you think that? I was sitting around on the floor holding you for several minutes afterwards." That must have been a stupid question, Shalise thought even as she…

Christmas

by Tower Curator — "Your grip has tightened since Halloween." "I heard you were staying in town for Christmas," Eva shrugged. "I went out to buy a stress ball straight away." Genoa Rivas barked out a laugh. "Good. Good." She released Eva's hand and clasped her own on the shoulder of her partner. With a light shove, the spindly man stumbled forwards. He managed to avoid crashing into Eva by inches. "This is my husband, Carlos." A spindly arm stretched out to Eva. "H-hello," he said in a high-pitched…

Ylva | Out of the Fire

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…

The Frying Pan

by Tower Curator — "You knock on your own door?" Irene quirked an eyebrow in Juliana's direction. The two finished shopping in record time. The subpar selection offered by shops around Brakket certainly helped. Still, Juliana made out with a new uniform and plenty of everyday clothes. Her favorite purchase was a brand new winter coat. It was cut long with an outer layer of wool and fleece lining. Her old coat wasn't technically ruined due to being hung up near the door when the golems attacked. As long as Zoe lifted…
