Twin Cities by Night

The night after Absolution grows colder and stranger. In the shadows of a crumbling New York ruin, four lives brush against something older than the city itself—a presence the faithful whisper about as La Novia. Voices rise, vows are tested, and a sermon in the dark promises that nothing comes without a price. By dawn, paths will be set that lead north to the Twin Cities…and deeper into Sorrow. Ab...

Brother Yan arrives in Prague, wings still burning on his back and faith in tatters. What waits within the city walls is neither sanctuary nor judgment—but a final revelation. At a table lit by flickering candles, two men confront what they’ve become and meet the one who claims to have made them. Chains tighten, truths are unbound, and the divine reveals its cost. Some prayers end in mercy. Others...

The forest opens into silence—and a field of ash where nothing should live. Brother Yan follows the scent of ruin to a place that feels both sacred and cursed, where a voice speaks through stone and a man lies reborn among the embers. A page of scripture promises release, but only through sin. As the bell tolls somewhere unseen, oaths are sworn in the dust, and two lost souls march toward a destin...

Hemmed in by claws, concrete, and bad memories, the survivors make a final push to turn the bunker’s own secrets against it. Jinx’s “guided” bomb-making, Lance’s stubborn practicality, and the Man’s haunted past all collide in a desperate plan to bury the horrors below—before they spill out into the world. But even if they claw their way back to the surface, the nightmare doesn’t end at the treeli...

The backpackers quickly learn the bunker isn’t just old concrete and bad memories. Skittering shapes in the dark become clawed, lizard-like predators that hunt them through rusted corridors, ruined labs, and dust-choked barracks. A panicked escape attempt, a desperate stand in an old armory, and a wrong turn into the bowels of the complex all drive home the same truth: whatever was bred down here...

A quiet backpacking trip through Eastern Europe takes a hard turn when a mudslide forces the group off the marked trail and deep into a stretch of forest that locals avoid for a reason. What begins as inconvenience quickly becomes unease—dead deer parts hanging in trees, strange whispers in the woods, and an old drunk insisting that “Nazi evil” waits ahead. The trail leads to a forgotten structure...

With Fornjot unraveling around them and the oracle no longer content to stay boxed away in nested simulspaces, Vector, Nila, and Maxine race to salvage what they can: egos, evidence, and whatever future Firewall might still have. As they uncover what the oracle truly wants—and what it’s willing to do to get it—the sentinels are forced to confront a final choice between impossible options: knowledg...

With a Reaper morph guarding the reactor and lethal radiation between them and the fail-safe, the sentinels are forced to admit that brute force won’t save Fornjot—or anyone on it. As the truth about the “oracle” crystallizes and the scale of the disaster becomes clear, Vector, Nila, and Maxine weigh personal ethics against Firewall’s priorities, debating how much they can salvage, who they can ta...

With one “penitent” taken down from the cross and another zealot drifting into the chapel, the team is forced to choose who they believe—and how much violence they’re willing to unleash in a place already drowning in suffering. Guided by a wounded researcher who insists they all should be dead, Vector, Nila, and Maxine trace the broken hierarchy of this covenant toward a missing specialist and the...

A rented car points to a stranger’s name and a paper trail kept behind a polite smile. The crew works the lead, plays it cool, and learns which doors open with the right words—and which slam without a warrant. Just when the night feels routine, a late-news broadcast cuts through the quiet with sirens, wreckage, and a chill that hits harder than the cold. About the Chronicle The Ultimate Evil is a...

A license plate points toward the airport, but answers wait behind a scuffed door on the first floor. In the glow of an overworked TV and a mother’s worry, the crew seeks truth from Toby’s closest friend—careful not to break what little trust remains. Between the hush of carpeted corridors and the winter air outside, rumors harden into leads, and a name from the school’s past starts to matter. Abo...

A cold wind follows warmer truths. After a lead at the school turns stomachs and tempers, a shadow on the road forces the crew to decide how far they’ll go to look the darkness in the eye—and how to keep each other safe when the hunt starts hunting back. New resolve hardens, lines are drawn, and a number scratched in a notebook may be the first thread that finally pulls. About the Chronicle The Ul...

On the ice-scarred moon of Fornjot, the team pushes deeper into the covenant’s habitat, tracing glitching simulspaces, broken security, and eerily cheerful religious adverts toward the truth. A covert scouting run through the chapel reveals a horrific “ritual” of pain, penance, and repetition enacted by nearly identical child morphs—echoes of the same ego punishing itself in the name of salvation....

Strapped into a tiny stealth shuttle with nowhere to go and nothing to do but talk, Vector, Nila, and Maxine finally let their guard down—sharing the ghosts of Mars, lost families, and the reasons they ended up working for Firewall in the first place. Their confessions end when the scans come in: Fornjot is a tiny, ice-caked moon carved over with Hebrew script, a ring of domes orbiting faith and p...

Shaken but not broken after Nicotine Eldridge, Vector, Nila, and Maxine regroup in the tangled jungles of Swanskin Domino to pick apart what they’ve learned and where the trail leads next. As they trace the warhead’s strange route through the swarm, a fake engineering union and a reclusive Christian fork-cult on the distant moon Fornjot begin to form an unsettling pattern. Reporting back to their...

In the shadow of the coming Thunderbird migration, Sir Nicholas and Jesse turn the castle into something new: a proving ground. As word spreads through the supernatural community, fighters, scions, and other strange beings gather for an impromptu tournament where the rules are simple—no killing, no knockouts, only surrender. While Theophania Jones is roped into officiating this “responsibly manage...

In the depths of the Pit, Sir Nicholas and Jesse push past the noise, blood, and neon haze to confront the fae woman who has James wrapped around her little finger. What looks like a toxic relationship from the outside turns out to be something far more binding—and far more dangerous—than a bad college romance. Nick steps into unfamiliar territory, invoking a knightly challenge against a being who...

Following a troubling visit from a friend in need, Jesse and Sir Nicholas descend into one of Phoenix’s hidden supernatural hotspots—a place whispered about by those who know where the city’s Veil thins and the strange walk openly. Known only as the Pit, it’s a club built in concrete and shadow, where pounding music, arcane tattoos, and things not meant for daylight gather shoulder-to-shoulder. Am...

With the miles to Reno dwindling, Agent Michaela Rummanov’s “simple” courier job has turned into a paranoid blur of headlights, black SUVs, and a man in her car who shouldn’t exist. As an unseen enemy closes in on the mysterious cylinder in her trunk, Michaela is forced to balance training, instinct, and the unnerving guidance of Shackleton—the voice that keeps insisting he’s on her side. A tense...

In the summer heat of 1987 New York City, four strangers find themselves drawn to a small gothic nightclub called Absolution. For each of them, the night promises something different — escape, release, distraction, or a fix. But what they find within the pulsing music and haze of cigarette smoke is far darker than anything they could imagine. As the evening unfolds, a mysterious young woman takes...

In the cold winter of 1990, a Sabbat pack known only as The Nothing is sent to the Twin Cities of Minnesota to uncover why one of their own has gone silent. What begins as an investigation becomes a descent into grief, identity, and the fragile bonds that hold monsters together. About the Chronicle Sorrow is a tale of loss, depression, and fractured faith — a deeply personal story that returns to...

When FBI Agent Michaela Rummanov is yanked off her dull desk rotation to courier a sealed evidence cylinder from California to a quiet storage unit in Reno, it sounds like the kind of favor that buys leverage, not trouble. The directions are handwritten, the box is already open, and her jittery supervisor insists it’s “nothing to worry about” a little too often. As the miles roll past, the highway...

A dawn prayer. A church that feels too prepared for its single visitor. Distant bells call a village to gather, and celebration burns a little too bright. Far away, Brother Jan wakes with a shard of memory and a terrible clarity, mustering an escort to follow a pull he can’t explain. Two roads, one firelight—both men step closer to whatever has chained their hearts. About the Chronicle Chronicles...

A map that won’t stay still. A table fit for generals. Chains that bite straight into the heart. Sir Reinhard and Brother Jan wake inside the same impossible vision, each pressed by the voice they dare not name. Promises are dangled, destinies are sketched, and a single choice—reach for the blade or turn away—echoes long after waking. On the road and in Tábor, both men step toward a meeting neithe...

The team steps fully into Nicotine Eldridge’s specialty: fear. With the evaluation program activated, Vector, Nila, and Maxine push through twisting corridors and impossible architecture as the habitat’s custom-tailored terror routines dig into their histories, doubts, and old wounds. Clinging to one another as much as to their mission, they fight to separate simulation from reality long enough to...
