Kill Six Billion Demons

There is a post in the comments there with a number of predictions about the future of the story.

-Incubus becomes Meti's student or at least some student rival to Maya
-Intra is going to have some role in the plot (He is literally The King of Swords) or is somehow related to Incubus (more in a plot sense than a familial one)
-Allison, Maya, or some other Demiurge will have a "rematch" with Incubus towards the end where it will probably end in a draw or Incubus victory
-Solomon David dies
-3rd universal war starts
-Allison actually starts controlling the Magus Key and manages to use The Blade of Want to kill/incapacitate/severely injure a demiurge

Which, if any, do you think are likely to come to pass?

That's not creepy at all...

There is only one way to be a pure master of sword law. This is to allow your body to become absolutely soaked with death.
Death is always in the body at all times, but happier people are able to let it live only in their skin, or on the surface of their eyelids. They may easily wash it off from time to time and carry on with their lives.
When I tell my students to shave their heads, partly it is so they cannot rid themselves of death so easily. Those who do not bathe in death regularly will forget it is there, and that is a very stupid thing to do when swords are involved.

I like the little monkey(?) sitting on the roof of the shrine.

Also, I wonder if this is a flashback, and if Maya's student is somebody we know (or will come to know in the future).
 
I'm pretty sure Maya's student-not-student is Monkey, one of the Pursuers. She's the one who wields a long blade and mostly uses a face-concealing plate.
 
Sounds about right, I thought something along those lines as well. You think Allison will get a third teacher? One to poison her with sword law?

Edit: ...fourth teacher.

I'd guess that promising to do that would be a prerequisite for becoming her student. I wonder how she will react when she finds out good old Incubus already has his claws in her.
 
Screaming internally (rage, fear or both, up to you to decide) and telling Allison this story as a warning (and trying to inspire mistrust) externally.
 
So, anyone try running the RPG Broken Worlds, or try to home brew this in Exalted?

Are you familiar with the TRPG Shadow of the Demon Lord? Because Broken Worlds, and the upcoming Lancer are derivatives of that system.

First I have heard of it, and from the cover image alone I can see some of the similarities. Will need to give that a read.

"From this hour forward the gates of the city will be barred to my kin. Do not underestimate them. Do not commune with them. Do not give them offerings, or give them bread or Ajash if they visit you disguised. Many of them have a sweet countenance and a honeyed tongue. They will say their wish is to be a teacher of men, to spread messages of peace. In an earlier age, this was true. Now dogs and worse have crept into their ranks. Madness has consumed them. Their only passion now is a lust for blood and power."
