To Chase or Not

“We need to rescue him!” Yisini was crying as she followed Kinisis around the castle. “We need to get Arkadin back! He’s my brother! We can’t abandon him!” “We may have to…” Kinisis finally admitted as they flew towards a large pool. Epani was nearby, mixing cosmic dust with various materials in a bucket. The … Read more

Peris

Arkadin was surprised at just how pink everything suddenly was. One moment he had been surfing along the boundaries of his universe, swimming in a sea of black, and now suddenly he was drifting in currents of pink, with navy blue clouds. None of this looked right. Worse, there was a weird tingling sensation all … Read more

Hole in the Walls

Tatters of space mingled with the distant void and the space between spaces, a current of foreign airs blowing through. A large hole had punctured the side of Kinisis’s universe, and the Allmaker was absolutely furious. “KENON, YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING!” the Goddess of the Universe roared, stamping her feet in … Read more

Bumping Into Family

Yisini clapped her hands with glee as she watched the little mortals fight in the arena below them. Sitting next to her was the Empress of the Temthans and in front of them was a table filled with luxurious food. To their left were several empty chairs, then an important Ksithan, a Thraki-Temthan and a … Read more

Thud on the Wall

“You know, generally, when I’ve beaten you up and faded away dramatically, that means I do not want to see you any more!” Kinisis snapped as she leaped up from her cosy armchair. “Why in the name of Me are you here?” For such a small, snug and comfortable place, the central home of Kinisis, … Read more

Allmaker’s Threat

Kairos opened his eyes, feeling weirdly refreshed. Had he been asleep? Had he just woken up? He wasn’t normally a being who needed to sleep. These confused thoughts were swiftly replaced by thoughts of panic. Something was wrong. He couldn’t breathe. But he could breathe. So he started breathing. But Kairos was a God. The … Read more

Complaining about Alterations

Kenon was sat in his favourite armchair, reading a book while a small fireplace burned away to itself. He had heard his two sons enter, but was choosing to ignore them. He wanted to listen to them, to see whether they would argue or not, but to his surprise, both his sons were reasonably quiet. … Read more

Stargazing with Time

The universe twinkled away to itself, happily continuing its existence, unaware that a corruption had sought to destroy it only hours ago. Luckily, the Gods of Time and Death had dealt with the problem swiftly, and now they were unwinding, watching the universe twist and spin. “Thanks for helping again, brother…” Kairos smiled as he … Read more

Talked Into It

“I can’t BELIEVE you are going through with this insane plan!” Tenuk shouted as Retvik put on his armour. “I can’t believe that Skyan convinced you into doing all of this! Elksia I get, you can talk her into eating a sand sandwich if you tell her it’s tasty enough, but YOU? You’re smarter than … Read more

Judged by Peers

Psiksi was tired, pissed off and hung over from the night before. He vaguely remembered having a chat with his mum, but apart from that, it was all a blur. He’d left Kass in bed, since he didn’t have work, and decided to get his own stuff sorted out. All the drinking and shenanigans from … Read more

Plans for Good and Bad

Kayel slammed down the communicator, then sheepishly picked it up again. He had just got off the phone with Tenuk Diplastron Theanon, the eldest member of the Dessaron, the renowned traveller who had visited each of the Gods in turn. Kayel had hoped that the Deiton would tell him how to meet up with the … Read more

Embedded Anger

Kairos had just been flying by when he spotted Yisini and Epani, both sitting on a little, lifeless rock, sighing at each other. In the distance, he could see the source of their vague anger, the remains of a planet being engulfed in flames and dust, having been hit by a passing meteor. “You two … Read more

Grandest of Plans

“You called for me, All-Ksa?” Teekay asked as he entered the tent. For reasons Teekay could not explain, the All-Ksa, the leader of the Skyavok, was insisting on spending his time inside a tent on ground zero of a catastrophe, rather than letting the K-Class look after him. “Of course I did, Teekay…” Kayel sighed. … Read more

Course of Action

“We must send assistance immediately!” the High General shouted as he stormed into the main hall. Already present were King Ver of the Vrekans, Lokmahro, Dovak of the Tsithic Thraki, and Phovos, the leader of the Ksithans of Portalia. “Do they want our help?” Ver asked. General Elkay glared at the Vrekan King. “Of course … Read more

Hunger and Fury

Kayel could hear screaming. He could smell smoke. He could feel pain. He… could only see blackness. Blackness wasn’t too uncommon a thing to see. Kayel, like most Skyavok, lived in a place known only as the Void, a dark, gloomy space between spaces, otherwise inaccessible to other races. Their homes were built on a … Read more
