There's a reason magic was silenced. Who will bring it back? The sorceress who will tear down empires, the smuggler with split loyalties who doesn't believe it exists, or the warrior who would die to keep it secret. THE BONE SHARD WAR x THE JASAD HEIR #P2Ppit #Q #A #F

Photo collage with a dark aesthetic and reddish and green tones.
Top row: A fox stares out from the darkness, one eye visible; a door knocker fashioned like a dragon; an eclipse, the sky is swirling with green tinged clouds.
Middle row: A female warrior sits, propped up using the hilt of her sword; a double exposure of a face holding its hands like the scream but it's ghostlike and hard to discern the gender; a catacomb tunnel with a man holding a torch of fire; a strange unusual formation of rocks against the night sky with stars visible.
Bottom row: a murky dark forest with twisted limbs and green atmostphere; the profile of a woman, long hair loose, she's in silhouette surrounded by darkness.

The rain slammed the pavement in sheets, creating a dark, slick look that reminded me of spilled oil. I could hear it drumming against the windows, a fuzzy background static that blended well with the sickly gray tint of the sky. It was mid-day but it looked like dusk, and on the one hand I was never happier to be in a dry, warm office. 

On the other hand, I have never hated my job more.
