    Summary

    Deep under the surface of the water the world was quiet and weightless. There were no conflicts, no bonding exercises, no backstabbing friends. It was just Tommy alone in an endless void. He imagined that might have been what death felt like.

    He’d grown a liking to waking up there lately.

    Or, Tommy heeds the call of the abyss

    Summary

    For years now, L’Manburg had been living under the constant looming threat of the Puppeteer, a cunning villain with a passionate and borderline sadistic love for death. He stated publicly before that his ultimate objective was to find a cure for mortality, though it didn’t seem like he was anywhere close to achieving his objective by the ever-increasing pile of corpses lying at his feet.

    He was a slippery one, and in eight years of activity, no one had been able to find any hint of where his hideout might be. All the most advanced tracking technology in the world had led to nothing but one wild goose chase after another, sometimes even leading the heroes well out of town, only to trap them and slaughter them like cattle once they were too far for reinforcements to reach them in a timely manner.

    That all changed when Tommy, who wasn’t even a hero, was unfortunate enough to catch Puppeteer slipping back into his hideout underneath Church Prime as he was going for an early prayer before work.

    -

    or, To finally defeat the infamous Puppeteer, a task force of nine heroes and a civilian is put together. They're not ready for what they find down below...

    Summary

    Wilbur has told them he doesn’t lie anymore. Wilbur has told them a lot of things.

    He’s alive, he says. He’s alive. He’s alive. He’s alive, and he’s changed, and things will be different now. He deserves to be here.

    He thinks he’s fooled everyone. He hasn’t.

    (Wilbur Soot, ladies and gentlemen. Watch him fool everyone and everything, but he cannot fool the earth.)

    Two not-quite dead boys who are not-quite brothers

    Summary

    “No two sigils are alike,” George said. He swept the page off the desk for the students to pass around. “A demon’s sigil breaks off from their parents’ at birth, and as they grow, so too does the sigil. For every year of a demon’s life, a new stroke is added. This is one of the reasons why soul deals were so rare, even when demonic contracts were common practice.”

    Karl couldn’t tear his eyes from the paper as it snaked through the rows. He was short of breath. His fingers were shaking.

    “Only the strongest demons dealt in souls—demons that had lived for centuries, with sigils so complex they would have taken years to learn, let alone execute well enough to perform a summoning.”

     

    (Sapnap always said the trick to sigilry was to let your mind wander. Don’t try to force it, just—be. No thoughts head empty, Quackity joked.

    Brush to paper. Karl wanders.)
