Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Phovos With a thunderous crack, the delicate, stained glass ceiling collapsed, dropping a rain of shrapnel down on the unwitting creatures below. A wave of panic rushed over everyone present as they tried to run for shelter. This was supposed to be a peaceful event, the meeting of leaders, and already it had turned into chaos. … Read more
“What were you doing in theeeeere?” Yisini hissed as she sat on a massive, cushioned, golden throne, floating pointlessly on the edge of space. Kairos glanced behind him, into the darkness of the Void Spaces, the domain of their father, Kenon. The Void Spaces weren’t a true void, they were just particularly dark places where … Read more
Everything down there glowed. But at this moment, something new glistened in the darkness. A strange glow that lured the other dark beings in. The creatures edged around the glow, curious and confused, but also rather hungry. They had no concept of time, but knew that they needed to eat. The divine being in front … Read more
“Retvik?” Gath sat up in bed, reaching for the blankets. A cold breeze had sneaked in somehow, and a frigid brush against Gath’s uncovered leg had snapped him out of his slumber. The rest of the bed was empty. Recently empty. “Retvik, are you in the bathroom?” There was no reply. Normally Gath’s beloved partner … Read more
Teekay gently opened the door, not sure what to expect. He’d been away for over two weeks, far longer than he had anticipated. It turned out his former colleagues really, really needed his help, as few people knew how to properly deal with a deity. Teekay didn’t know either but he at least had prior … Read more
“You, uh, missed a spot…” “Huh, thanks…” Yisini watched anxiously as Kairos flew around the gargantuan castle, setting it ablaze and incinerating anything that desperately tried to escape. Kairos wasn’t really that aware of Yisini’s presence, he was busy working. What he was working on, Yisini wasn’t sure but she didn’t want to ask either. … Read more
There’s a horrendously powerful being in front of you and you’re pretty sure that it’s some sort of deity. But which one? What should you do? What is going on? Well, remain calm, as long as you don’t do anything stupid like trying to attack it or insulting it, you should be fine. Step 1: … Read more
“So he’s… in there… somewhere…” Epani and Yisini hovered above the dark void. It was one of the few places neither of them liked to visit. The Blackspaces, the Voidspheres, as they were often called, were cold, empty territories with only one or two stars inside them, cut off from the rest of the universe. … Read more
Yisini coiled herself up in her nest, sighing wistfully. She was bored and didn’t know what to do with herself. In fact, she had been like this for days, her mind filled with tedium and her hands empty and fidgety. She had made herself a comfy nest but aside from that, Yisini had been sitting … Read more
“Why are you here?” Arkay stared blankly at the Skyan standing in front of him. It must have been late because all the lights were dimmed and there were only seven guards stationed around his cell rather than the normal twenty. They all knew that the guards were only there for show, yet there the … Read more
Hi there! Welcome to my little guide on dealing with deities! Now, I know what you’re thinking, you’re thinking that this guide is pointless, that deities never deal in mortal affairs and why the hell would you personally need to know how to interact with them? And you know what, you’re absolutely right in thinking … Read more
“I want to meet him!” Kayel couldn’t understand why no one in the room was as excited as he was. They were all giving him that annoying “Kayel you’re being dumb again” look and he hated it. “Alright, instead of staring at me like I’m some sort of retard, one of you please explain to … Read more
An attractive, yellow-armoured creature sat patiently in the plexi-glass cage, quietly tapping his feet together nervously. All around him, Skyan police and soldiers stood on guard, weapons drawn and pointed at him. None of them had moved for at least an hour, not since they’d captured the yellow being and brought him to his little … Read more
Enkay leaned back in his deck chair, soaking in the low levels of sun. The skies in these Skyan territories were always pitch black, but the nearby stars still pumped out enough heat to warm one’s skin. Next to him was Teekay, who was lying on his stomach, watching some sort of show on a … Read more
“He is… really quiet, isn’t he?” Teekay and Enkay sat at the table, delicately sipping their frozen ice cream smoothies, while they watched Elkay drift about the kitchen. The three of them had initially planned to go out for a fast food meal, but Elkay had changed his mind at the last minute, claiming that … Read more
