Triumphant Return

Retvik struggled to remain upright as Litvir wrapped his arms around him, holding Retvik a little too tightly and clearly sobbing, showing a lot of emotions that were out of place for a Rethan. Really, considering Retvik’s injuries, he was amazed he could even stand up, and Galyn, Itaviir and Vikalos had all offered to … Read more

A Familiar Miracle

Everything was cold and dark, but Retvik could feel something warm, drifting nearby. At first, he thought he was dead, but the sickening pain radiating across his body told him he was definitely still alive. There was definitely something jutting out of Retvik’s stomach, probably a piece of debris, he could feel blood leaking out … Read more

Heavily Armoured Distraction

The Life Goddess ship “Epani” silently slipped past two Voidborn vessels, before making its way towards the front of the vast, pyramid-shaped prismatic ship known as the Diamond, what was believed to be the headquarters and mothership of the Crystal Doom. They’d managed to pass the Diamond’s automated defences with ease, mostly because “Epani” had … Read more

Dragged Into The Plan

“What the fuck was that?” Vikalos snarled as he tried to stifle the vomit in the back of his throat. Standing by his feet was Tah, the leader of the tiny team of Decay Lords that had recently joined the Thantir. “Sorry, my teleportation is pretty nauseating to organics!” Tah apologized. “But we had to … Read more

Theoglossic Ship

The Thantir Three was a small ship, not really designed for long distance travel. However, it was perfect for training, not just for piloting but also gun aim as well. That was one of the reasons why Retvik had taken it out for a ride, alongside Tenuk, Phovos, Elksia and Eksi. The reason Retvik had … Read more

Awkward Job Changes

“Hey, Kuta.” “Hello, Arkay.” Kuta looked and sounded miserable, and Arkay completely understood why. There had been a lot of delays, and Kuta was still stuck in temporary housing and their insurance money still hadn’t come through, meaning Kuta hadn’t been able to go out and buy new belongings. Sure, Arkay had bought Kuta a … Read more

Delirious at Home

Retvik had been genuinely surprised when the nice nurse had told him he could go home, as long as he stayed at home and rested as much as he could. He thought he would have been stuck in that room, fastened to that bed, for at least a week, awkwardly waiting for the vast amounts … Read more

Ship on a Key Chain

This observatory had once been publicly accessible to anyone on the Shimmering Blade, but after the Voidborn elite known as Krohniak had attached the ship, as a thank you for saving everyone, the observatory was now only accessible to the Thantir, and it had been converted into a safe space where the Decaylings (and occasionally … Read more

Healing Voidblade

Phovos straightened herself out as she climbed the stairs up to the top level of the Shimmering Blade. She was wearing her nicest dress, a black one with a light floral pattern on it. Phovos didn’t normally wear dresses, she was known to be the deadliest Ksithan alive back when she was mortal, but today, … Read more

Kitty Recovery

Tenuk purred as he turned himself into a cat then leaped up onto Retvik’s lap, brushing up against him. “You’re awake! I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean it!” Retvik didn’t answer at first. He glanced to his left, where a Rethan nurse was standing. The nurse smiled, then came over and undid one of the … Read more
