That is not dead which can eternal lie. And with strange aeons even death may die. [H.P. Lovecraft] - Accepted in the Urban Reading List @WattpadUrban - Accepted in the Magic Reading List @magic - [5th Place [81/100 pts.] in the Ruby Awards [@The_ruby-awards] Paranormal/Horror Section - Winner of the Wattpad Nobel Awards - Supernatural Section [91/100] A trigger happy Irish ex-soldier who's not afraid to put her tactical mind, her cooking abilities and her utter ignorance of the Magic world on the field. A Mexican Palo Mayombe priest who'd very much prefer to live a quiet life between his magical studies and his parish. A Russian engineer who has lost most of his memories and would just like to spend his days in his cellar, where nobody knows what happens. A bureaucrat at heart, forced to he the Enforcer, and thus the tactical chief - or as he likes to define himself: glorified babysitter - of the aforementioned three subjects. A powerful Order of Mages, working behind the scenes of the world... in the most bureaucratic and organized way. What happens when a simple mission, who would lift the Coven of the Pollos Rojos de la Revolucion at least up the rank where they'd have the right to a home with, at least, one room each and two bathrooms, goes south in a totally unpredictable way? Follow the adventures of Banshee, Chico, Vopros, and Garaham, as in Strange Aeons, unnamed supernatural forces, and very named ones, find themselves at the beginning of a plan eons in the making, that will change everything. Especially the lives of the three minimum-wage mages. ********************************************************************************************
