Thirty-One - Refraction
Howlett has recovered two books, long thought destroyed, that spell out the principles underlying every lost school of mortal magic. This has brought Daily Grind to the attention of certain interested parties. This story starts in the early morning hours of Tuesday, September 6th, 2005 and concludes late that afternoon.

Thirty-Three - Against the Dying of the Light
Two days after the previous storyline, Tharka decides he needs to consult Stenni Eelstad, the dead sorcerer who's training Jolene to be a psychopomp. It turns out, however, that he's not the only one interested in Eelstad. Things wrap up here, more or less, by the afternoon of September 12, 2005.

Thirty-Four - Crack of Dawn
The afternoon of September 12, 2005 continues as Howlett and Doc make their way across town to what seems a fairly straightforward case for Daily Grind. Of course, nothing's ever as straightforward as it seems around here, and all sorts of unusual things happen over the next few hours.

Thirty-Five - Iris Out
As evening approaches on September 12, 2005, words are exchanged and lines are drawn at Eyes of the World headquarters, and the fate of the oldest surviving school of mortal sorcery hangs in the balance.

Thirty-Six - Chiaroscuro
Late Thursday night, September 15, 2005, everything unresolved from the past week-and-a-half boils over, shooting Our Heroes off in a variety of directions. What happens between then and noon the next day rings in a fair number of changes for a fair number of folks.
