Lysar sighed as she watched yet another patrol walk by in the distance. While Lysar and her group of similarly free-minded Rethans had somehow managed to tiptoe their way out of Thre-Vretania and towards the port city of Thre-Sypria, walking down narrow train tunnels, their journey to freedom had come to an abrupt halt as … Read more

Ver’s little Vrekan heart began to pound as he realized he was not alone in his bedroom. The doors had been closed, the room had been swept, the guards had been patrolling yet somehow there was something in there with Ver. Something was sharing a room with the Vrekan king while he was in his … Read more

“They finally convinced you to get some rest, eh?” Rethais sat up from bed, as his brother Retvik stood in the abnormally large doorway. He wasn’t sure how long he had been sleeping for, but it was dark outside, faint moonbeams shining in from a gap in the bamboo window blinds. All things considered, Retvik … Read more

Rethais sat quietly as he watched the sun set behind a vast forest of trees, some of them leafless and dead, others covered in fresh, green needles.

“We have a massive problem…” King Ver stood at his desk, addressing a series of screens. Normally he would arrange meetings in person with the leaders of the other members of the Reth-Vrekan Union, but considering what had just happened with the Reth- part of said union, Ver really didn’t want anyone to be traveling … Read more

Lysar held her breath, watching anxiously behind the shelves as a couple of armed Rethans marched past her then exited the store. She wasn’t sure how long she had been hiding there, but the number of soldiers that had marched in then out again was at least starting to dwindle. Not that it mattered, all … Read more

“I believe we are in the clear, at least for now…” Underneath the vast buildings that made up the cornerstone of Rethan society, there were a vast number of tunnels and sewers, designed to provide shelter and safety in case of emergencies. Despite all that had happened though in the last few hours, the majority … Read more

Kenon smiled as he watched Rethans pour into the city below. It had only been a few mere hours since he had taken control of this race, but everything was going swimmingly.
