Re: [Austria] Chapter 2.1 - The Sage of Doors & His Lovely Enchantress

THUMP Wolfgang Krieger slammed the butt of his cane on the floor with surprising strength. "Children! Be calm. You have many questions and concerns. We will get to them. For now, rest. You will all stay here for the night." He fixed Drysi. " No exceptions . My lovely wife will be hom...

Re: [Texas] Chapter 2.1: You Shouldn't Have Come Back

Jane eyed him with a neutral expression. "Powerful as always." "An timely," he suggested with a knowing glance. "Not my favorite venue, but we don get to pick the stage, do we?" She shot a look back that was difficult to read then rose to her feet and offered Laoise a h...

Re: [Percival's Lair] There Came a Soft Rustling

Tanuki did not drowse. She did not lose focus. Professor Caxton had her rapt attention from start to finish. It was like a fairytale, but there were so many reasons to believe this one. She soaked up all the names and the story of the Elementalia Magicus. The alchemist's hesitation toward the end, t...

Re: [Texas] Chapter 2.1: You Shouldn't Have Come Back

As if in answer to Eryl, the portal winked out. Jane didn’t look back. The sooner she could stop thinking about those screens and the thing that watched, the better. She released the Druid and took a few steps forward to get a better look at the valley. She didn’t need to, she had memorized this pla...

Re: Chapter 2 - Preamble: Safeholme Fall Festival

At a Table for Instructors Ruarc, Eryl, Laoise, and several other staff members rushed into the portal . After one final glance around, Jane followed them through . Aboard the Everlasting Tanuki stared, wide-eyed as the entire apartment seemed to explode with mechanical action. She couldn't remembe...

Chapter 2.1: The Siege of Safeholme

CRACK BOOM A bolt of lightning snaked out of the woods, briefly blinding and deafening anyone nearby, and cutting through the empty space where Reika and Kitsueki had been; following the path of least resistance, it arced onward. Brenya Lilibloom, instructor of Mystic Societies and Speech, collapse...

[Austria] Chapter 2.1 - The Sage of Doors & His Lovely Enchantress

Johann, Chuffy, Vrey, Remarque, Kat, Drysi, and Willow all spilled through the portal into a cozy sitting room that the former immediately recognized. Lady soon followed, the latter stumbling through, uncharacteristically off balance. But she recovered her poise quickly and sighed. There was an incr...

A Harsh Glare in a Dark Room

Jane found herself in a narrow hall. Dim lights in seashell sconces were evenly spaced along the left wall. The carpet was thin and nonsensical in its pattern. Together, they gave the impression of a cheap hotel. Glancing over her shoulder, Jane saw that the hall ended in solid darkness. Forward, th...

[Texas] Chapter 2.1: You Shouldn't Have Come Back

Ruarc, Laoise, and Eryl emerged from the portal into a gust of wind under a predawn sky. The sudden loss of light cost them a few moments as their eyes adjusted. They were on the southern edge of a valley running East to West. From their vantage point hundreds of feet above the valley floor they cou...
