Amankh allowed Steve to respond to Professor Burr's statement first, taking the time to consider the implications. As he expected, Steve was moral to a fault. To dismiss the possibility of requiring a tool for bargaining should things go dire—though he, of course, did hope they would not—seemed...

Amankh watched as the pooka evaporated into puffs of fur, the remnants of which seemed to move on their own accord to leave their sight. Certainly an interesting creature, and not one like any he had ever seen before. Intriguing, he'd have to ask one of his researchers to look into these...

"I see." The archmage nodded along to Jonathan's elaboration, making a mental note to instruct his aides to peruse the archives for any additional information that might have been brought in by travelling Eternals on the city of Volta. "Lightning and transmutation, an interesting combination. I...

"As are we. Unfortunate as it may be, our undead nature has made the Eternal College something of an outcast in the greater academic community, despite our greatest efforts." The archmage's words were tinged with the sound of distaste. Even the most gifted mages seemed to find it an unnerving...

A plethora of papers laid sprawled in several different piles upon the wooden desk, lines of ink adorning the strewn pieces of parchment. Letters from potential applicants, requests for funding on new research, and a large pile of as-of-yet ungraded tests and assignments next to its...

The decrepit skeleton cast his gaze over to the source of the sudden question, though was unable to provide a response before one was eagerly given by Steve himself. A low chuckle emanated from Amankh, one of subtle amusement and exasperation all the same. He faltered slightly as he considered...

The Archmage of the Eternum deftly navigated the labyrinthine halls and passageways that made up the Eternal College, the crowds of students both living and dead parting at the sight of the imposing mummy, whom they had all grown to know quite well as a result of their tutelage under him. As he...

Feel free! Same goes for anyone else interested.

I, of course, am the aforementioned ancient mummy that will be among those lecturing and teaching those of the College as Archmage of the Eternum. Prepare your notes and textbooks as we go into a fascinating deep dive on Amol-Kalitian and Abtati history, the art of cryomancy, necromancy, and...

The council chamber's door opened once more to reveal yet another arrival, propelled by a sweeping gust of frigid air. A mummy, whose bone had long since turned a cobalt blue and was draped in familiar, gilded robes entered the room. Shortly after, two masked undead figures followed—Eternal...

"I can assure you that the Eternum wasn't behind the loss of your form. If you were killed by normal means, your soul would be dismissed normally," the undead archmage explained. The vague sorrow that stained her trembling voice cut deep, the once rumbling voice now reduced to the voice of a...

It was at that point the doors opened, introducing a cold air that pushed through the throne room. Standing at the door was a regal figure, his form draped over with robes and gilded jewelry, a mask of gold obscuring half his face. Upon closer expectation, he bore no skin or flesh; his body made...

Oh, Steve...

Welcome and have fun!

Dear Steve, I must admit that I'm curious as to why you've had such a change of heart on this topic. Your eagerness to aid this cause is appreciated, albeit odd coming from one so... aggressively friendly such as yourself. To see the empire he prides himself upon succumbing to rot and...
