Adventures in the Space Between Universes
Arkay At first, I thought this world was dead. A land of hot stone, boiling rivers and spikes of bone, the spines and remains of animals long since deceased. Asterkitoi, gigantic beings that came to this world to leave the mortal coil and be renewed by the Cycle, their bodies melting in the hot, white sun, … Read more
Normally, other Veth remained far, far away from Arkay’s cage. The angry monster would always leap up at them, threatening them with claws and violence. Every Veth knew that the Veth Prime wasn’t to blame though. Outside of his missions on the mortal plane, he was treated far worse than they were, regularly drugged, beaten … Read more
“What are you doing here?” Vahlok hissed as he reached for his blade. “I could ask the same of you,” Tempo replied, reaching for her pistol. “Poaching again, are you?” “Coming from the queen of the poachers, considering what I’ve heard about you!” Vahlok spat, only to quickly change his tone. A young, somewhat panvok-y … Read more
The base was on fire. Not just a little bit on fire. A lot on fire. As in completely and utterly on fire, with most beings trapped inside it was burning and on fire as well, dying in agony and clawing at the exits trying to escape. Tempo could hear a lot of screaming. And … Read more
“Remember when I told you to never come here without asking permission, Lua?” Tenuk grunted as he put a saucepan of milk on the stove. “Remember?” Lua nodded glumly. “Yes, Tahnahos. I remember. But this is important.” Tenuk continued to grunt as he rummaged around for two mugs and a cup of brown powder. Lua … Read more
Vahlok woke up in shock. Something buzzing had woken him up from his sleep, which was probably for the best, because he had spent most of the night chasing off bad dreams. Ever since his failed mission the other day, Vahlok had felt a lingering sensation in the back of his mind. Or rather, around … Read more
Those Vayra had been hard to convince, but Vahlok had finally done it. All he needed to do was go and visit them in person, to show them what his Lordship could do for them. The Fenirk Nest was always a rather progressive nest, with more rights to Kalsa Warriors, better treatment of Varga and … Read more
“Kalsa Warrior Nuvak, we need your assistance!” The Vohra jumped up and down. Like most normal Vohra, her voice was monotonous, but Nuvak knew that she was excited. Her pheromones gave it away. Normally, Nuvak would be doing higher level duties in the nest, but occasionally, he would do the rounds. It helped him keep … Read more
The six of them sat around the table eating various breakfast dishes. While Retvik and Gath chowed down on sausages and mashed root vegetables, Vel, Elksia and Kass took bites out of their bacon and kotopoul eggs. Psiksi was eating a bowl of porridge with a vast amount of honey on top. “Well, this is… … Read more
Tempo was pleased with herself. Not only had she managed to get into the Anexartan server system without being seen, she’d managed to get the tracker virus uploaded, and on top of that, she’d placed locational and sound trackers on the handful of staff that were there, meaning that if they did manage to find … Read more
Death yawned and stretched, then reached for a glass of something to drink. But as she did so, she realised something was missing. Her new little friend who had been chained up next to her was missing. “Where the fuck have you gone?” Death tutted. She got up and headed downstairs, only to be pleasantly … Read more
Death clapped her hands as a swarm of Veth ran around, cleaning up the coastlines of Kinigi. “Move your asses, kids! I want this place looking like a fancy thropy beach resort!” Several Veth sighed as they removed piles of skulls by quietly swallowing them, or taking them inland to bury if they were too … Read more
“Relinquish your control and disperse your followers now!” Zoi screamed down the phone line. Behind her, the rest of the Sixteen, the current rulers of the Thanatians, listened on anxiously. “Really?” the voice laughed. “That’s rather… hypocritical of you. All I’m doing here is leading a peaceful takeover of a nation you have so clearly … Read more
“Good evening…” “Phovos. You can just call me Phovos.” High General Elkay waited for the Raptor to sit down, before sitting down himself. “… Phovos. It is a pleasure to meet you again.” Phovos smiled. “You were going to call me Ser. I could see it. Shame you don’t have a feminine version of the … Read more
Tenuk couldn’t help but look as Death paraded down the stairs, completely naked, with not even her fancy shadows covering her. Death bounced up and down towards Tenuk, circling him before disappearing in a cloud of smoke and reappearing behind the Kronoreth, this time with her shadows on. “Uh…” Tenuk opened and closed his mouth, … Read more
