The city’s ancient magical defenses crumble when Bartholomew, the six-hundred-year-old gargoyle guarding City Hall, vanishes without a trace.
Cill must use his precise control over micro-time to fractionally delay the extraction beams, causing a self-destructive feedback loop and saving the gargoyle's life force, though leaving behind a silent, permanent mark of stone sorrow.
