Of Tainted Heart

ALLS FAIR IN LOVE . . . AND MAGIC.SLATESomehow we survived.It was supposed to be over. No more curses. No more magic. Just a calm little life in Brume.For the first time ever Im ready for calm. So. Damn. Ready.Just so happens that the girl I love doesnt like to leave things unfinished.Fine. So our little crew will assemble the Quatrefoil and bring magic back to the world. Weve already faced death.This cant be worse.Or can it?CADENCEI could have let things be. Maybe I should have let things be.My crew is alive. Slate is by my side. And life is returning to normal.Except the university is a giant pile of rubble. Papa is still stuck in a wheelchair. And a girl is dead.If magic can change all that I want to try one last time to bring it back.Hopefully I wont regret it.*Warning: profuse cursing (and not just the magical kind).
