Adventures in the Space Between Universes
Arkay General Litvir drifted around his five captains, examining each one of them in turn. Litvir was rather pleased with himself, having trained these otherwise broken and damaged Rethavok, taught them how to use their unnatural, almost magical powers while also making most of them submissive to him. Only one more captain remained, and he was … Read more
“Retvik.” “Gath, you have no idea how pleased I am to hear your voice! It has taken me far too long to convince General Litvir to allow me to call you.” Retvik glanced around the room to make sure that no one was watching him. He couldn’t be certain that the line was completely secure, … Read more
This was the only vaguely nice room in the entirety of the facility. It had a warm, fluffy carpet on the floor, a fancy, wooden desk, a plump couple of chairs and a second, tiny room behind it which had been completely converted into one large, cushion-filled bed. Another small room had been converted into … Read more
“Wow, your siblings are fucking assholes…” Phovos muttered as she surveyed the ruins of the Thirteenth Night Arena. Half of this forested, sheltered arena was fine, if a bit roughed up. The other half had been completely flattened, as if someone had dropped a massive cartoon-like weight on it. “Yeah, I’m sorry…” The Thantophor hovered … Read more
“JATTTASEY!” One panicked, static-filled word just flooded the comms. We pick up signals like this all the time, but as we’re nothing more than a shipment vessel, there’s not much we can do about them. It’s always the much larger military ships that get attacked anyway. The problem is that we’re currently docked at V … Read more
The diner was currently somewhat empty. Only moments ago, it had been not busy, but definitely rather populated, as locals helped themselves to a large breakfast buffet. Now, only a few beings remained, and the majority of those were hiding in the kitchen. “I love how my parents enjoy blowing my cover…” Arkadin sighed as … Read more
“I can’t believe they fucking did it again…” Tenuk put an arm around the little Skyavok who was quietly sulking on the bench outside. It was a muddy, murky day with nothing but clouds in the sky and a constant, somewhat ominous rumble of thunder in the distance. The normally rather pleasant garden had been … Read more
Arkadin woke up on a cold, eternally black and somewhat dusty floor, his mind confused and his stomach contents unsettled. Acidic drool sprayed out of the Thantophor’s mouth as his godly powers returned to him, alongside the almost endless screams of the dead and dying. Scurrying to his feet, the Lord of Decay tried to … Read more
“Kinisis?” Kenon asked as he approached the massive, crystal tower on which the Allmaker was perched. “Kinisis, may I have a word?” “What do you need, dear?” Kinisis hadn’t moved. She was staring off into the darkness, her eyes fixed on a single point. “I was hoping you would allow me to borrow Arkadin briefly. … Read more
Tenuk grunted as he swept dirt out of the back door. He wasn’t grunting because he was cleaning, Tenuk actually somewhat enjoyed cleaning and found it relaxing. No, he was annoyed because he was still sharing a house with one normal vok and three complete and utter retards, two of which had made a massive … Read more
Retvik smiled just a little as he kicked off his feet protectors and removed his stomach wrap, hot and sweaty from a hard day of cleaning and tidying. He and Trismit had been in charge of keeping the more… lost Rethans preoccupied, making sure they ate, exercised and took their medication, and such duties often … Read more
“Soooooooo… What now?” Sini laid in the large pile of cushions that made up the main living area. There was a screen playing something in the background, but Sini cared little for it. Voltiidro was trying to edge his way closer so he could sit on the pile of cushions as well. “What do you … Read more
“Was he… was he dead?” “I don’t… I don’t know…” “Did I accidentally kill him?” “No, you just… well I think you just knocked him out…” Arkay sputtered back to life, his head throbbing and his side hurting. He wasn’t quite sure what had happened, aside from seeing Ebania running up to the house and … Read more
“Why do you always return home looking like you were dragged through multiple bushes?” Sini asked as the front door blew open a tattered Thraki wandered inside. “Generally because I have been dragged through multiple bushes, as well as other things. Like trees and stuff…” Voltiidro grunted, sitting down awkwardly on a chair that was … Read more
“I didn’t even know your name.” The small, stone marker was dirtier than most. A small metal plate had been bolted to the front, but the name written on it was scuffed up, barely legible. Flowers had been placed somewhat recently, but they had wilted in the autumn sun, a lack of rain stopping them … Read more
