Adventures in the Space Between Universes
Arkay “It wasn’t Yisini, was it?” Kairos was lying on the fluffy carpet of his ‘bedroomland’, the room his mother had always set aside for him whenever he was sad or ill. His wings were completely outstretched but they didn’t come close to brushing against the walls. Running water from a small fountain gave the room … Read more
Arkadin knocked on the large, wooden door. Inside, he could hear familiar but unwelcome sounds as Yisini was quite obviously enjoying herself with some poor mortal. As soon as Arkadin had knocked though, the sounds stopped and were replaced with those of something scampering away. After a few more moments, the door opened up, revealing … Read more
Most of the Tragon cafes the two beings had passed had been absolutely packed but this little cafe was rather empty. It was clear why, the sign above it loudly proclaimed that it was for first dates only. Inside were only a handful of potential couples, all sizing each other up and awkwardly making small … Read more
Arkadin steadied himself as he entered the atmosphere of this lush, green world. This planet had always been here, but it had always been a dull, brown rock. It wasn’t until a certain incident involving the stopping of the heart of a time god that this planet had anything interesting on it. That was why … Read more
Normally the Skyavok authorities wouldn’t dare interrupt Arkay while he was working, but today, Arkay assumed they had a good reason. After all, he did… kinda invite his godly siblings to a Skyan mall and they did kinda overdo things a little bit. The Skyans were probably just wondering what happened and who would pay … Read more
The cell door slid closed, finally separating Arkay from the armed guards that had been leading him around this massive facility. In front of him was Arkay’s new home, what was essentially a hermetically sealed studio apartment. There was a grand total of one window, which looked out into the hallway which Arkay had just … Read more
Kairos perched on the roof of the crystal tower that he had been residing in for the last couple of days. This was not his true home. No, Kairos had been made to live in one of his mother’s many palaces, while Kinisis and Kenon kept an eye on him and constantly asked him questions. … Read more
The Library of Heliochron was one of the most popular locations in the Tragon territories of Keros, but today, the Library was oddly empty. The majority of the Tragon population was out on the streets, celebrating the holiness of their deity, the Whenvern, partying, drinking, playing in the honour of the Time Lord. In fact, … Read more
“Your fate has been decided.” Arkay was struggling to comprehend how all of this had happened. As soon as he had arrived in Deathven alongside Vikalos, everything had been a strange rush. Rather than getting a tour of the place, Arkay had been marched from strange location to strange location, accompanied by black-robed beings with … Read more
“Kairos!” A sharp, stinging sensation soared across Kairos’s body, starting from his chest and resonating outwards. “Kairos! Come on, come back!” The sensation returned, this time stretching out into his arms and legs, right down to the tip of his tail. “KAIROS!” The Whenvern’s eyes snapped open, only to be met by a very worried … Read more
Vikalos sighed as he activated the holo-communicator in the centre of his office. He kneeled down on the raised circle on the ground, muttered a few words, then waited. After a few awkwardly silent moments, a holographic 2d image appeared in front of Vikalos, towering over him. “Ah, Lord Vikalos, you saw my message.” “I … Read more
“You know there is more to existence than toasted cheese sandwiches, right?” Ostos stood in the kitchen doorway, his skeletal centaur rear end partially blocking the main hallway behind him. “There’s not much else to existence, really…” Arkay muttered. This was the first time Ostos had seen the Decayling since the incident with the vessel … Read more
“Hello, little brother!” Elkay sighed as he opened the front door. Standing there quite calmly was Retvik Rethianos, a living legend and Elkay’s older half-brother. He was too tall to enter the small, Skyan house normally and had to duck under the doorway to come inside. Elkay led him into the house and closed the … Read more
“How is he doing?” Vikalos asked as he peered through the tiny window. Myyxa shrugged. “This one does not talk to me. These others are all well. All back to normal. But this one is… One should not say broken, but damaged.” “Can I go in and speak to the child?” “Yes, but that one … Read more
Arkay was beginning to feel that maybe all of this was a trap. Not a trap for the Decay-Lords he had just saved, but a trap to get him. Or at the very least, a trap to get all of them, with Arkay being the grand prize. He wasn’t really sure what had happened, but … Read more
