All Monster's Eve: A Fated Touch Short - Fated Touch, #6.5

A short novella featuring one of the lesser adventures of Jane and her companions. Jane and company take a well-deserved break from adventuring when Reaper's Night comes to the Shifting World.  A celebration akin to Halloween, they join the revelers in donning harvest costumes to celebrate the end of the growing season. However, trouble brews on the darkening horizon as they're regaled with tales of monster hunting by the ancestor of their host.
 Jane's keen senses and the hairs on the back of her neck tell her something is amiss.  When the time comes for the penultimate celebration the danger bursts into the light, as does a whole horde of monsters who fall over one another in their eagerness to tear the heroes apart. Now Jane and Caius must stop the curse of Reaper's Night before they're turned into monster chow.
