Adventures in the Space Between Universes
Arkay They’d walked for a long time through the wilderness, being led by a convoy of powerful, muscular Banikans, each one of them probably powerful enough to take on a tank, let alone the Temthan, Ksithan, Kronospast and Skyavok they’d captured. The Banikans were of a multitude of colours, mostly warm hues of yellow, red and … Read more
“What do we know so far?” Kohra shrugged as he watched Timik pace up and down. “Not much. Atmosphere is mostly oxygen and argon, with high amounts of carbon dioxide and oddly low levels of nitrogen. Weather seems to always be clear, with clouds not really forming. I don’t recognise any of the stars in … Read more
Arkadin smiled as the facility swiftly began to burn and collapse. Normally he didn’t enjoy this sort of thing, but this horrible place was one of Yisini’s little ‘secret bases’ where she gathered up huge amounts of genetic material to use in her experiments, so Arkadin was quite happy that he got to destroy everything. … Read more
“I’m getting worried…” Phovos muttered as the three beings hid inside an air duct. “Worried about what?” Kayen whispered. His eyes were closed, they had been for a while. Between the lack of food, the running around in the dark and the things that seemed to be following them, Kayen was exhausted and quickly reaching … Read more
Once again, Kinisis had wandered around her home, only to find her son Arkadin sitting in some weird place, quietly thinking to himself. Today, Arkadin was sitting on the edge of one of the palace chimneys, one that obviously hadn’t been lit in a while. It had taken Kinisis two hours and thirty seven minutes … Read more
I’ve been thinking lately. About everything. About nothing. About some things. A lot of conscious beings think about everything around them. Many will take their observations and turn them into absolutes. After all, there are some absolutes that all beings must follow. A being must be born, must consume matter to convert energy into various … Read more
“That looks bad…” “Trust me, he got the best deal out of the four of us…” Kayen and Phovos glanced up at the fleshy machinery above them, Phovos signing in disbelief and Kayen feeling too embarrassed to ask what the machines were actually doing. Tubes and pipes fed in and out of rose-tinted cells, each … Read more
In the hours (or was it days?) that Kayen had spent wandering around this facility, he had seen some awful things. Freshly cut up corpses. Live births of monsters and beasts. The farming of organs and tissues. The testing of horrible substances, from powerful sedatives to seizure-inducing poisons. The creation and destruction of new forms … Read more
Everything was sticky and horrible, but at least Kayen could move. The little Skyavok had no idea how long he’d been lying there on the ground. He remembered passing out, but that was about it. He’d had some sort of dream about some sort of organic machine trying to suck things out of him. Or … Read more
“This is fucked up.” Everything in the house was coated in a horrible, sticky substance that trapped and entangled anything it touched. Particularly sentient lifeforms, gluing them to the ground and stopping them from moving. More sticky substances blocked out the windows and locked up the doors, preventing any sort of escape from ever taking … Read more
“Seventy five thousand, six hundred and thirty one.” Yisini snorted as the Temthan scientist read out that number for the second time. Yisini assumed they were a scientist. They were the only Temthan in the room who happened to be wearing clothes. A lab coat and some shorts. “And how many of our own?” “Five … Read more
Volt made sure everything was dead before he hacked the console to open the door. He needed to go deeper into this horrible wreckage, deeper into the remains of massive Corpus ship that had crashed into an Infested breeding ground. Why? Because there was some useful data on three consoles somewhere which the Tenno Council … Read more
“Aaaaaaarkadin, where arrrrrrre yooooou?” Kinisis pranced around the palace, glancing in every room. She was about to go for a swim in one of her many waterfall pools and was suitably naked, but a sudden thought had caused her to go and find her son. After all, she hadn’t seen him for a few hours. … Read more
“Are you alright, Kohra?” Kohra looked up, then further up. He’d forgotten how tall Kayen was. Kayen wasn’t tall, but he was now taller than Kohra. “No.” “Do you need, like, some water or something?” “No, no thank you.” Kayen shrugged as he sat down next to Kohra. “I’ve not seen you like this before. … Read more
“Why is there a motherfucking queue in this fucking piece of shit building to undergo this retarded procedure?” Out of the four of them, Kayen didn’t expect Phovos, the Raptor of Palaestra, to be the neurotic, overly swearing being when it came to telepathic mind links. Although to be fair, the little Skyavok was sitting … Read more
