Adventures in the Space Between Universes
Arkay “Oh hey, you’re actually online.” Retvik sighed as he checked his messages, then typed a quick response to the latest one. “Yes, I am online, how are you?” “How am I?” a reply swiftly appeared. “Mate, I’ve been waiting for you to appear online for days. What the heck have you been up to?” With … Read more
“There’s no way this will work…” Kayen shifted his weight, the extra armour on his shoulders feeling rather heavy and awkward. Normally Kayen wore very basic armour. While most Skyans considered him somewhat attractive, Kayen never really liked explicitly showing that he was attractive. His coverings, from the plain stomach wraps to the simple scarves … Read more
“You want us to find the source for you?” Galyn grunted as he perched awkwardly on the chair that was far, far too small for him. His assistant Retvik was clearly having similar issues as they discussed the situation with six tiny, round, mechanical beings. Tah, the red and silver leader, with glowing blue eyes, … Read more
“Good day, Decay Lord Vikalos speaking, who is this?” A shy yet formal voice slowly began to emerge from the other end of the line. Vikalos was just about to finish his shift for the day, so he didn’t really appreciate this call. “Hello, Lord Vikalos. This is Doctor Phanty from the Decayling Investigation, Research … Read more
“Tah, I hate to sound cliche, but I need you to come and take a look at this.” Now that Kal had separate bodies for each of its six selves, the team of small, round, mechanical beings could actually spend time doing different jobs, rather than having to do everything one step at a time. … Read more
“Bloody Light, we ordered way, way too much food yesterday…” Kayen groaned as he spotted the piles of sealed food in the fridge, then tried to pick which one he wanted to eat. Most of it was rather chunky and wet, heavy, sauce-covered stews with soft meat and plenty of starchy vegetables. “Doesn’t help that … Read more
Kayen grunted to himself as he hang out wet clothes and plating on the balcony, somewhat lost in thought. Across the way, an older Rethan was also hanging out their laundry on their own balcony, while a handful of gats wandered around in the street below. The weather was cloudy, but it was still bright. … Read more
Tahnahos smiled as he gazed up at the glimmering specks in the sky. The glimmers definitely were stars, but they were very young ones, slowly forming and spinning into existence in the nearby newly born universe. Nearby, water could be heard rippling, as two of his fellow Divine Guardians floated in the swimming pool. Between … Read more
Retvik grunted as he slipped deeper into the bathtub. He hadn’t really actually seen a bathtub like this before, or really in general. Everywhere he had gone, everyone had just had showers, mainly to conserve water. But on this little ship, it seemed that Galyn preferred taking long baths to clean himself. Then again, Retvik … Read more
The lanky, skeletal being screeched as the rock it was standing on steadily began to collapse. This former death deity was clearly in shock, scratching and crying at any source of life. The screeching only got louder as the Thantir ship approached, a door opening up on its side. Out of the ship stepped a … Read more
Arkay sighed as he patiently waited for the massive file to save on his little computer. While the multiverse had seemed to solve the issue of space travel and moving between universes, it turned out that computer processing power and internet connection speeds were still stuck in the past. Every time Arkay had asked his … Read more
The Whenvern soared across the edge of the tiny universe, a place now known as the Panelixsphere. What had once been a rather standard universe had been reduced to mere fragments, and now Kairos was spending most of his time trying to stop it from fragmenting further. While the Panelixsphere was mostly stable, its miniscule … Read more
For the last three hours, Retvik had sat in silence while Galyn had peered through various observation tools, watching the movements of a handful of Voidborn ships. Due to the vast distances within the Space Between Universes, it was possible to work out a ship’s location of origin and its potential destination, by simply measuring … Read more
“You seem tired.” Retvik was doubled over in his chair, breathing heavily, utterly exhausted after having to run away from and completely incinerate a small swarm of corrupted beings. Really, Retvik found Galyn’s comment rather insulting. “Just a little tired…” Retvik finally grunted, his pulse settling down. “All of… that… whatever it was, it was … Read more
Volt stared blankly at the new mastery icon that was proudly displayed in front of him. A shimmering circle with those familiar lotus-shaped petals. Underneath the icon were two words: Middle Master. After night after night of long, tedious grind. After so long gathering resources for his Railjack. After weeks and weeks of shoving Forma … Read more
