Master and Student is a book by Angel Wedge about John Blake, a supporting character from Inside the Box. It seems to be set several years previously, before John became the custodian of a White Box of his own.

At this point, John has recently arrived in the big city, and is attempting to set himself up as a private detective.

I am writing this as my project for NaNoWriMo 2020, but have very little planning so I am not sure how well it will turn out.

details so far include:

  • John Blake - the main character, recently homeless but now living in a one-room office/apartment
  • Franzes - the client; a girl who lives in near poverty with her aunt, and believes she is being watched
  • Zarathustra - John's first familiar, a hawk
  • Isaac - the narrator, Watson, and an animate skull sitting on John's desk. He has wax on his skull from being used as a candle holder, but now more often has Zarathustra perching on him. He seems to have been a mage once; and and therefore presumably his animate status is his own doing. Only John can hear his voice, but he can contribute willpower to ritual magic, which he knows quite a lot of.
  • Miss Fotheringale - "The vampire", lives in a luxury apartment in a converted bank building near the city centre.
