Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Phovos The Goddess of Life grinned with relish as she read through Kenon’s letter to her. None of it was surprising to her. She had always expected her other half, her polar opposite, to one day turn on them all. In fact, Yisini had been preparing for such an event. “Is everything well, my lady?” A … Read more
Kairos tutted as he rummaged through the massive pile of mail that had been shoved through the castle letterbox. He always received a lot of letters and notes, but today, after a massive earthquake on one of those fanatic Kronospast planets, he had been overrun with letters begging for miracles, forgiveness and other godly things. … Read more
My dearest, most beloved child, I am writing this message to you as we are in great peril. Horrible events are afoot. Your mother Kinisis has exiled me, cast me out and locked me away from the universe I so love and wish to protect. The reason? Your dastardly sibling Arkadin. He has done something … Read more
It had been a long time since Arkadin stepped foot in this strange place. The centre of the universe, the home of Kinisis, the Allmaker Herself. Normally, Arkadin wouldn’t have dared set foot here, not wanting to disturb the Creator and her work, but today, Arkadin felt he had to. Something was wrong, he hadn’t … Read more
“I didn’t think I’d be seeing you all again so soon…” Timik stared at the little Skyavok in front of him. The Skyavok stared at a plate of toast and slices of smoked ham in front of Timik. He didn’t reply to Timik’s words though. The two of them were sitting on a sofa in … Read more
Timik was having a bad day. He was supposed to have gone home, put on his nice armour and then gone out for a morning piss-up at his favourite bar, score some chicks, get laid and then spend the afternoon in the back garden, lying in his inflatable jacuzzi with whoever had decided to stick … Read more
There was a weird knocking sound. It was bothering Kayen. Disturbing his sleep. Reminding him of where he was. He rolled over, trying to turn away from the sounds. But they only got louder and louder. After a while, the air felt warmer. There was a breeze. Wind blowing through. Kayen curled up into a … Read more
Kayen sat in the corner, tears streaming from his eyes. Nothing made any sense. At some point while he’d been sleeping, he’d been taken from a hospital and chucked inside a cold, damp cell. Why? Kayen had no idea. He was ill and exhausted and hungry. He should have been at home, resting. Or at … Read more
“Someone really wants him dead.” “If they wanted him dead, he would be dead already.” The two R-Class officers were talking quietly among themselves, but Kayen could still hear them. He was lying in a hospital bed, on a saline drip. Everything was still blurry and painful. He couldn’t really remember much after the Astynom … Read more
Kayen gasped for air as he skidded to a halt. He had no idea if they were still following. He didn’t dare look. He just needed a moment to catch his breath so he could keep on running. The edge of the city wasn’t far now. He could have flown, but his energy wings would … Read more
“STASY!” Kenon breathed a deep sigh as he stopped what he was doing to answer the call of Kinisis. “STAAAAAASY!” “I am here, my dear…” The Void Lord was not in a pleasant mood. For reasons he could not understand, his son, the Thantophor, was not responding to his own calls. Now he had to … Read more
Normally, Kohra wasn’t too bothered about having an insanely crazy room mate who was actually a deity. But today, as he watched Arkadin watch dishes in the kitchen, Kohra just couldn’t think of anything else. He’d always been one to ask questions, and right now he had the eyes and ears of the Thantophor, the … Read more
“You gotta stop getting me takeaway food…” Kohra muttered as he eyed a third cheeseburger. “You’re gonna make me fat…” “But I like treating you!” Arkadin smiled. If Kohra hadn’t known that Arkadin was a god, he would have assumed he was a bottomless pit, considering that the little, yellow, Skyavok-shaped being in front of … Read more
Kayen was pissed off. He needed to go back to work. He needed a job. An unemployed monthly wage was not enough for Kayen to continue his current lifestyle. He had to go back to work, he had no choice. The problem was, what job? On one hand, Kayen could retrain for a new job, … Read more
Things hadn’t been the same at home, not with how Kohra’s room mate had been acting. Having a couple of new friends was nice, but they normally wanted to meet up in town. Understandably because Kohra’s room mate had gone from nice, quiet guy to a bit of a dick. Then again, Kohra’s room mate … Read more
