“So you’re leaving?” Vincent asked. The four Zodiac looked between him and Morrigan. They were at the south gate of the Free City. The air was clear and the sun was hanging low and beginning to set. There were barely any clouds in the sky and the weather was perfect for travel. Each of them […]

Morrigan shoved Greed backward getting her bearings again. Letting out a subtle breath she looked around at everything going on in their little ballroom. It was bigger than she’d first thought, given the number of bodies surrounding them. Gluttony and Greed both started raising the dead the moment they could.

The ground shook and the undead servants all scattered away from the sight. Another and it collapsed into chunks sending debris and the undead falling to the ground. Alistair and Vincent shouted as they fell before Virgo caught them out of the air, floating down with her. But they weren’t the only ones to float […]

The second floor of this castle was very different than the first. Where the first floor had been long hallways, spacious and empty the second floor was more compact and strangely alive. Or rather undead. There were a bunch of zombies milling around and they looked like they were performing the role of servants.

The four Zodiac were gathered in their tent staring at one another. Virgo was sitting on the bed while Cancer and Gemini were pacing back and forth in tandem. Scorpio stood near the entrance her arms folded and face a mask as she looked down.

Across the city Ryza, Orion and Ryze gathered on one of the walls. They had their backs to the rising sun, looking toward the empty expanse of space that would take them to Noria. Orion looked at the pair of necromancers and from the back, arms folded like they were, and saw the resemblance.

The sun was finally starting to rise, a half circle on the horizon. The air was already starting to warm up and the breeze that rolled across his shoulders was cool. The guard rotation was going to be coming through soon. They were used to him being here in the early mornings and usually ignored […]
