This quest is based on the world that Hollie is taken from originally. For now, I'll call it by the working title of the book, just so there's a name for it - Dance Macabre.
It is an earth variant, where magic exists (although generally conducted in secret), the monsters walk among us, and even gods of old may appear (Seriously, one of the main characters from the book is the avatar of Thoth...).
The world itself has an organisation that works to research new magic; investigate occurances with no explanations, cases given to them by their local law enforcement agencies, or reports of experimentation upon magical entities; or to cover up major magical incidents, such as dragon attacks. They currently have branches in Durham, Kyoto, St. Petersburg, Seattle, Baltimore and Sydney.
As an ease of access thing, I think making them a QA affiliate would be a good idea. Just to make it easier to intergrate the world.
Rules of the world
Magic is allowed, but should not be performed openly.
Non-humans who have human forms should remain in them unless necessary, but are not restricted. Abnormal appendages that can be easily hidden can be hidden by non-magical means.
The practice of Necromancy is outlawed. The sentence is death, no exceptions.
The current level of technology is approximately 3-5 years ahead of normal Earth.
Hollie looked at the letter again.
We are currently experiencing an exponential increase in major magical events. We would appreciate some aid in locating the cause of, and resolving this situation.
Yours faithfully,
Hector.
She hadn't expected to go back. Right now, she wasn't sure she wanted to. But she couldn't let them down. They were her friends, after all...
"When do I leave?" She asked the messenger.
"As soon as your back up arrives." he replied, before leaving her doorway.
Hollie grabbed an overnight bag, and just stuffed the first clean clothes she could in.
"It's not as though I don't have anything there..." She thought to herself, before leaving her room, and heading to the meeting area.
