Armageddon Avoidance 101
This really wasn’t how I had imagined attending the All-Seeing Academy would be. As a young witch attending The Bradblaith School of Elementary Magics, I was something of a teacher’s pet. I won the Junior Conjuror’s award four years in a row, I was top of my class in Spellbinding, Familiar Care and Potions – and my Runes reading age was off the charts. Which is why I was so excited to graduate and begin afresh, attending the All-Seeing Academy and majoring in Prophecies and Interpretation under the tutelage of Professor Petyr Dulin, a well-respected ex-warlock from the Institute of the Arcane...

Cocoa Bear
It was very cold. Snow fell in thick flakes from the dark sky as I walked towards the main street of town. Firelight flooded from the windows, turning the snow orange as it passed through the paths of light. I hurried through the growing layer of white, kicking it up over my shoes, where it fell down in and soggied my socks. I made for the tavern to get a cup of hot cocoa before starting the trek up to my cabin.
