Draft here I come, ready or not.

Doctorate achieved! Now time to pay off my mandatory service obligation to the government. The same government that may, or may not, be trying to occasionally kill me. But hey a job is a good thing, right?

I didn't expect it to be all rainbows and sprinkles, but neither did I envision being thrown in with a training group of misfits and potential criminals. How did I end up having to make decisions to let someone die, or try to prevent it, when keeping them alive is breaking the law.

You'd think with my skills they'd put me in a quiet lab somewhere. No, I get stuck with the Department of State and working with Japan. Don't these people read? Japan wants to kill me even more than my own government. But when Carelian decides the Dragon of China needs a friend my personal problems get eclipsed by international incidents, centered around me.

Being a trouble magnet is one thing, starting World War III is something else. How in the world do I get myself into these situations? And why didn't they just stick me somewhere where I wouldn't be the center of political drama?

Having twisted luck is one thing, how do I broker peace between three countries that all want to use me?

Look Inside

I wheeled my suitcase down the dingy hallway on the third floor. The linoleum looked older than me. Each side of the hallway had small doors leering at me, some with a name written on a sticky pad stuck to them. My fellow draftee mates I assumed. 


All mages were required to serve in the draft, and being a merlin, my service was a decade long. Odds were most of the others would only have a four-year draft. 


Lucky them. 


kept walking the interminable hall, searching for my name, Corisande Munroe, as I went, the dim fluorescent lights and lack of windows doing nothing to assist me. Gauging the distance between the doors I figured each room would be about the size of my closet.

Well, the size of Sable and Jo's closet.


Jo, my best friend in the world, and her spouse Sable wouldn't be able to get all their clothes in something this small. Good thing that wasn't one of my foibles. And I missed them already, which seemed vaguely silly. I might be gone for the next decade; why was I missing them barely hours into the next act in my life?


Because you are Joined and miss them?


I twisted the ring on my right ring finger at the thought, the magical stone brighter than it had any right to be. 


~I do not understand why we must stay here,~ Carelian protested as he walked by my side. ~Sable and Jo did not need to leave their home for their orientation, why do you?~


I fought back a sigh. My familiar was a Cath, a species of intelligent cat-like beings that lived in the Chaos realm. Cath did not believe human rules applied to them. Carelian often refused to understand why I had to follow laws or rules or orders or a myriad of other restrictions when he had a much simpler solution. Usually kill them, eat them, or do it anyway. Caths were the ultimate example of “that can't possibly apply to me” creatures.
