“What do you mean, we could all die?” Pidelle asked. Goldmight collapsed on the ground, exhausted. The lightning golems looked at everyone, but made no move to attack. For now, they were content to watch. “Suffrn’s guards were supposed to be unstoppable. And if you look at these golems, they are. We haven’t made a scratch on them.” “We’ve been a bit busy,” Hilt said. she looked at the constructs appraisingly. They didn’t seem too […]

Book shouted something at Hilt. She couldn’t really hear it over the spells being thrown in her direction, or the golems. She assumed he was angry she had killed another of the Archiwrecks. If so, he was an idiot. They were Masters of the Circle. If they tried to sugar coat everything, it would only leave the apprentices unprepared for the real world.

Yuva was actually not nowhere to be found. She was actually off in a far corner of the room, guarded by the fairies and Bin. Ruby Lawks huddled next to them, thankful to be out of the way. “Why couldn’t you just stay at the Circle?” Yuva asked. “Pipe down!” Nutrose hissed. “Those golems might not be able to see us, but I don’t know if they can’t hear us.” Bin, Yuva and Ruby looked […]

That was all she could get before the remaining sorcerers threw her back with their magic. Book entered the fray then. Three more Archiwrecks fell, disintegrated to nothingness. The Master did not like death to be sloppy. Like his books, his […]

Goldmight spread his arms wide. “Masters…” Book laid a paw down on the ground. “Goldmight. I should have known this was all your doing. Luxar has written about the possibilities of this cache for years, and yet nothing came out of it. Is that why you were willing to put everyone in danger?” The fairy gasped in shock. “Danger? I would never!” “Really?” Hilt looked around. “You seem to be missing Ona and Kleb.” “They […]

This didn’t seem so fun anymore to Ruby Lawks. The young Lady-in-Waiting was not, exactly, part of the Season Leaves. She was actually doing her duty. Her Lady had demanded that she experience what the Circle had to offer. Speak with anyone and everyone, and see what could be seen. It wasn’t even a demand, but rather an order. The Lady had ordered her to grow. The Season Leaves were about as different from her […]
