Adventures in the Space Between Universes
Arkay “So let me get this straight, they want us to give them Kenon’s dead body and hand over Arkadin, even though Kenon is still alive and Arkadin is in the process of being punished? What right do they have to do that?” Yisini was pretty damn upset. Not only was she trapped inside the Fortress … Read more
There was something in the sky. Strange, golden streaks carved their way through the cloudy blue skies, fading in and out of view. They had appeared suddenly and without any hint of warning. While the streaks appeared harmless, a curious mark on otherwise plain skies, they had caused quite a bit of panic among the … Read more
Kairos collapsed, exhausted and defeated. Incisions and cuts covered his body, dripping silver blood down his cyan and sapphire scales. He was still drawing breath though, refusing to give up completely. Even as the gleaming gold being pressed its foot down on Kairos’s back, pushing him into the ground. “Allmaker Kinisis! Hand them both over!” … Read more
Rethais had been unsure how to react all day, as he had been shown around what used to be the old Rethan governmental headquarters and was now a glimmering, golden palace. The High General had taken him to every refurbished room, shown him every renovation he had done and smiled proudly with every change. And … Read more
Yisini frowned to herself as she worked. Something had cropped up, interrupting her normal duties. A little plague. Not a dangerous one, just an annoyingly contagious one. One that was irritatingly asymptomatic for too damn long. Luckily she was getting it under control, mostly by convincing everyone to stay inside and watch television. “Yisini, am … Read more
“I assume she met with you as well.” Compared to the rest to the rest of the cafe, which had been empty for hours, this one table was very cramped. Not because it had too many beings around it, but because one of those beings was a Banikan, taking up too much space. “Yes. She … Read more
“Good day, little ones!” Yisini beamed as she coiled herself around the small, concrete bunker, blocking the front door “May I come in?” The occupants of this bunker both struggled to find an answer. One of them was absolutely terrified – after all, a massive serpent was currently stopping them from leaving the building, trapping … Read more
“Kairooooooos?” The Whenvern always hated when Yisini spoke to him like that. Yisini knew Kairos hated it as well, but she enjoyed annoying the Whenvern occasionally. Today though, Yisini was more focused on just getting the attention of the Dragon God of Time. “What do you want, Yisini?” Kairos was busy looking at something under … Read more
“Dear Flamebearer Retvik…” Retvik examined the one letter that had arrived on his bedside table, next to his small glass of grape juice and the plastic tub of jellied meat and gravy. He hadn’t expected any visitors or letters or anything. He was trapped inside a hidden, private facility that only about 20 Rethavok knew … Read more
“You want me to stay?” Rethais nodded. “I do.” “Why?” “Someone needs to stay. In case things go wrong.” Elkay frowned, not appreciating the situation he was being forced into. When the High General had come to them and offered peace, Elkay assumed that peace encompassed everyone, or at least all Rethavok. But as far … Read more
The centre of the universe was always a strange place, often described as a “beautiful wasteland”, a combination of crystal asteroid fields and curiously flat plates scattered with faint streams and the odd bit of foliage. All of this led to the vast castle that Kinisis, the Allmaker, called home. The Keep of Kinigi though … Read more
“Oh no… He has returned…” Rethais peered over the battlements as his fellow Rethans lined up, armed and ready to retaliate. They had been given almost no warning about the army that loomed over the horizon, marching towards them, but thankfully the small Rethan town had managed to scrape together enough weapons to at least … Read more
“Yisini! YisiniYisiniYisiniYisiniYisiniYisini! I gotta talk to you! Right now!” The Allbirther peered down the small drain in the sink, where the voice was coming from. She was quite surprised to see a tiny little Thantophor, bouncing around excitedly. “What are you doing in there, Arky? What’s going on?” Arkadin pulled himself out of the drain, … Read more
Arkadin sighed, genuinely upset at how his mother was currently reacting to his presence. The moment Kinisis had spotted him, she had thrown whatever was in reach. The bowl of soup phased harmlessly through Arkadin’s non-corpreal form, splattering up against the wall behind him. “You seem far too angry, all things considered.” “YOU NEARLY KILLED … Read more
Kenon sat on the edge of this strange bed, knowing that something was definitely wrong. His memories of the previous day were blurry yet painful. Something had hurt him. Hurt him so badly that he didn’t remember. Luckily, as his vision cleared, he realised he was not alone, and there was someone present to give … Read more
