Editing Character:Darcy O'Dwyer (section)

=== Guest Starring ===
Darcy appears in Blaine Stark&rsquo;s tale.

Blaine picked the wrong woman to hit on at the all-night coffee shop, or the wrong moment anyway. She smiled back, said the right words, they left together&mdash;and then they were in an alley and something sharp was pricking his kidney and the woman was ranting about Homeland Security and demons. She&rsquo;d smelled the magic on him the moment he approached, it seemed, and was wound so tight she couldn&rsquo;t tell friend from foe.

Well, he talked her down, and they wound up sitting on a rooftop, sharing a bottle of wine and talking about magic. Turned out she had nothing much to teach him&mdash;White Council wizardry was just too different from the Soulfire her cult was granted by Vi&#x1E63;&#x1E47;u (or whatever). But they agreed to meet again sometime if they were both still in the city.
