Can I just note how hilarious the previous discussion is on this thread, now that we're 2 years in with simulacrum-golems with anti-tank crystal guns, airships, and, *gasp* beating Quatach-Ichl once from a month-long prepared ambush!
(sidenote: I really love how utterly busted Quatach-Ichl is; the story has never treated him like a trivial threat, always someone you need three or four archmages to keep up with)
This sounds like a fun thing to write, but waiting that long would kill the thread; I'll work on it on the side.

They have a couple of low-grade adventures (like getting lost in town, or defending Kana from bigots, or going bike-racing), before the main plot behind the story-arcs kicks off: together they start learning magic from Zorian, who they begin to suspect is secretly some kind of horrible dark wizard, on account of all the weird, disturbing trivia he knows about how Shifting works, magically. ("Technically it's as much soul magic as blood magic, considering the ritual foundation of how one would become a Shifter if that is something one wished to do, which of course I don't.") And he has a lot of really suspicious friends, including the family of Enthusiastic-Seeker-of-Novelty, who joins their girl's clique as a result of her story arc.
