Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Phovos “So let me get this straight. We came here to kill this slaver, free all these thropic demigods and then take that massive crystal up there?” “Seems like it, Phovos…” Retvik grunted, tapping his long, flaming sword against the large, winged, multi-eyed creature that was lying lifeless on the ground in front of them, dressed … Read more
“Are you alright, dear?” Phovos snapped back into reality as Retvik opened the door to his room. “Yeah… I’m fine…” Retvik didn’t believe Phovos, but decided not to fight back. After all, she was clearly in a world of her own. “Do you want to come in?” “Uh… Yeah, I guess…” Phovos quietly stepped inside … Read more
“So what is it that makes you like him?” “What do you mean?” Arkay sprawled himself across the sofa, feeling rather tired after a morning of cleaning. Kalis on the other hand was clearly procrastinating, not wanting to get started on his chores. “Well, there must be something that draws you in!” Kalis smiled, pushing … Read more
“Boss, you there?” Galyn picked up his communicator. “I am here. Is everything well, Elksi?” “Yep! We just finished! The bug problem has been eradicated. Can we come back? Or is there more you need us to do out here?” “I have no open tasks for you, so you are free to return, if you … Read more
“Oh no…” Arkay muttered under his breath. “This is… not good.” Arkay’s day had been pretty busy, and his evening was busy too. But the biggest problem was that Arkay had forgotten to message Velas back, several hours ago. “I am quite upset…” was the second message Velas had sent. Before it, there was a … Read more
“Can we do that again?” Phovos asked as she bounced up and down on the corpse of an arachnid that was way, way too large. “Do what again?” Tenuk asked in return, wiping green and blue glowing blood off his staff. “Fight these horrible mistakes again?” Phovos bounced up and down some more. “Yes! It … Read more
“Theocydes.” It had taken a long time, trying to find the exact position of the small, silver sphere. Voidborn ships were always a bit weird, but they were also somewhat manipulative with space-time, phasing in and out and rarely staying still. However, this specific ship had actually stopped moving, after a multi-day chase through the … Read more
“I thought you were above that.” Galyn twisted around as he closed the office door, looking for the being who had just spoken to him. “What do you mean by that, Litvir?” The Decay Lord glanced around, checking the area and scanning it, making sure no one else was around. “To put it politely, I … Read more
“Sending us off so soon?” Elksi teased as Galyn, her boss, entered the room, ducking under the doorway so that his horns would not get caught. “We just got back!” Galyn eyed Elksi, then turned his attention to the rest of the small office. “There are always new things to do. Please, sit down and … Read more

“What is this? A gladiator arena for ants?” “It’s just a model.” Yisini laughed somewhat awkwardly as Kairos and Epani inspected the little model battle arena that she had just built. She had taken a lot of time to make sure that everything was perfect and, more importantly, to scale, so it could be built … Read more
“So, how was it?” Retvik glanced up from his bowl of stew. “How was what?” “The mission of course!” Retvik grunted as the other two Rethavok sat down opposite him, both with their own bowls of stew. “We are not interrupting, are we?” Relkir asked, holding a large spoon. “I noticed you were not with … Read more
“So, let me get this straight. You landed at the target destination, and everything was made out of candy, and the only thing worth of value that you brought back was a container containing 70% gold coins and 30% chocolate coins, with nothing of value in all the other containers you found?” Galyn grunted as … Read more
“Hey, Sini. Delivery for you.” Yisini looked up from her experimental work, only to see a familiar flash of blue and silver scales. She never got to see much of Kairos any more, and was a little miffed that he’d popped by and left within the space of a couple of seconds. The only traces … Read more
“Uh, boss? What are we gonna do?” The sugar paper ceiling sizzled and faded away as a gargantuan set of jaws broke through it, oozing with acid. A cool, dark liquid dripped down from massive golden teeth, crystal eyes focused on one single being. “I think the ship may have cooled down…” Retvik whispered, switching … Read more
