It's funny that this was supposed to be a side project without any clear direction - something to clear my head while I worked on my main project. And now I am 10,000 words deep into it without end in sight.
When the ash settles, what is left behind still burns. They say ancient magic should stay buried but what if it just grows new roots? Section 9 has stopped rogue warlocks, vampire insurgents, and a fae assassination plot over lunch — but Malcolm Wren is something else. Resurfacing from presumed death, the disgraced warlock has one goal: complete a long-lost ritual powerful enough to shake the planes. Usually, I am pretty darn good at putting holes in bad people. But this time, the glyphs are older, the clues are thinner, and my team and I are running out of time. The clock is ticking. The signs are aligning. And the last time this ritual was attempted, the aftermath was catastrophic. Wren can’t be allowed to finish it. But what if it’s already too late?

Ashley: I enjoyed the story. It was a short one so the fast pace fit. I think something should be put in to show a time jump between paragraphs like a "****" just to make it easier to follow when we skip to the next day week or month. Over all a good read.
