Adventures in the Space Between Universes
Arkay I think… It’s working! You’re working! Yes! Alright. I have to be quick. I don’t know how long you’ll last. I’ve not… Well even if you just record, that’s fine. Step forward! Little steps! Lots of them! Okay, calm down. You’re working. I’m excited. I have a lot to say. … So, my name is… … Read more
Arkadin growled menacingly as he ripped the blanket off his body and threw it in the face of an intruder. He quickly calmed down though when he realised who it was. “What the fuck are you doing in here?” Kairos pulled the blanket away, pausing to feel how soft and snuggly it was. “Uh…” “How … Read more
The Raptor and the Dragon stepped out of the dark cinema together, both of them blinking in the artificial light. It had been daytime when they entered the cinema, but on this windy winter evening, the sun had long since set. “So what did you think?” Kairos asked, keeping his arms by his side but … Read more
“You should have come to me sooner…” General Kaldoran tutted as he pulled his face mask down. “That wound is rather deep. A few more millimetres and it could have punctured an organ or two.” “I would have but I was rather busy reassuring the Rethavok that their leaders were safe and that a potential … Read more
Sirens blared as Rethan soldiers clashed with the nameless entities throughout the Parliamentary Tower. Strange, black creatures had swiftly broken in via a portal on the building’s roof, attacking from above, armed with a myriad of blades. Already, both sides had plenty of casualties. While the shadowy beings had caught the Rethan Elite off guard, … Read more
“Have you got a moment? We need to talk.” That was an odd message. Normally, whenever Tim messaged Phovos, he’d say hello first, then ask how Phovos was doing, always sympathising with her. It was always the same. The only time he’d deviated from that same introduction was whenever something exciting was going on. “Sure, … Read more
Kairos had been knocking on the door and tapping on the windows for several hours now. Ever since the Thantophor had abruptly run off, leaving him with unanswered questions. A quick check with Kenon told him that Arkadin had gone back home, locking himself in his house. “Please, Arkadin, tell me what’s wrong?” There was … Read more
“You’re doing it again…” This was the second time in nearly as many days that Arkadin had caught Kairos hovering behind him, waiting impatiently to ask him questions. Today, Arkadin was just dealing with the remains of a volcanic eruption that had perfectly buried a city full of primitive sapient beings so he had time … Read more
Volt couldn’t remember how he got there. He wasn’t actually sure where ‘there’ was. Either way, it was a very tight space, with only just enough room for him to stand up straight. What bothered Volt more though were all the needles sticking out of his metallic Warframe flesh. Every few seconds, a tingling sensation … Read more
“Arkadin, can you help me with something please?” “Is it urgent?” “Kinda, yes.” The Thantophor rolled his eyes. He was in the middle of cleaning up what looked like a battlefield but was in fact just a normal village square. This dumb planet was filled with religious extremists which regularly blew each other up, but … Read more
Epani had just finished terraforming a planet and was now sitting idly in the planet’s orbit, toying with its newly formed moon, while Yisini inspected her new masterpiece. “Sister?” “Mhm?” the Panelix wasn’t paying much attention to what Yisini was doing. She was probably testing the temperatures of oceans, working out where to dump collections … Read more
It had been a long day, but Elkay was finally at home, having finally escaped from all his duties as the High General of the Retha. He was a humble yet strong leader, but some times all Elkay wanted to do was stay at home and read a good book, to melt away into an … Read more
“Elkay, may I have a word?” King Ver had an anxious look on his beaked face. There was clearly something bothering him. “Of course.” “In private?” “Of course!” There was definitely something wrong. The High General of the Retha and the King of the Vrekans had been good friends for a very long time. There … Read more
For Inktober, I decided to draw things from the Phoviverse. Here’s the 31 things that I drew. Day 1 – Kinisis Kinisis is the personification of the Phoviverse, the universe’s avatar and its creator. Nearly 14 billion years ago, the deity settled down in a little corner of the multiuniverse and gave birth to four … Read more
“What was all that about?” Arkadin watched as Psiksi wobbled over. He’d been sitting on a bench, staring out into the void. There were no stars in the night sky, only that horrible, empty darkness, the hollow that reminded the Thantophor of his uncaring ‘father’, the Voidborn. “What was what about?” Psiksi wobbled some more, … Read more
