Rather Knocked Out

“Did he take the bait?” Litvir smirked as he fingered his way through a magazine, flicking through the pages. He glanced up at Galyn, his smirk fading as he realised he needed to get out of Galyn’s seat. “Took the bait and the hook as well.” “Good. Hopefully that means we will be rid of … Read more

One Hundred and Eighty Degrees of Heart

Theocydes teleported into the cargo bay, not knowing what to expect. He had spent a long time setting up a ship in distress for the Thantir Two crew to investigate, but they deceived all of Theocydes’s expectations and… ignored it. Clearly something was going on, and Theocydes wanted to find out. The small ship however … Read more

Too Many Materials

“Oh, thank goodness! I am so happy to see you!” That wasn’t the reaction Yisini had expected as she entered the blood-red glass castle, slithering her way past a handful of guards. It seemed that Epani had immediately detected Yisini’s presence, and quickly popped into existence in the main hall. She looked a lot… different, … Read more

Planning and Scheming

“… And once I have broken its heart, I will tear its heart out as my final act of terror and revenge. How does that sound, Letharus?” Letharus blinked a couple of times, then wiped the drool from his mouth. He hadn’t realised he had been dribbling, but apparently this was a common side-effect of … Read more

Respawned Again

Warm, orange lights flickered on as a hiss echoed down the narrow room. Rows of opaque, glass pods lined one wall, while beeping consoles lined the other. Right at the very end of the room, a viscous, sticky liquid began to ooze onto the floor, dripping from the bottom of the penultimate glass pod. After … Read more

Attacking Again and Again

Arkay put his bowl of half-eaten pasta down and stared at the damn Voidborn standing in front of him. Theocydes seemed rather pissed off, and it wasn’t too surprising as to why he was fuming. The last time these two had met, Arkay had blown him up blasted him off into the darkness, and it … Read more

Getting Shots

“Did not know you were afraid of needles…” Retvik ignored Litvir’s comment and kept his eyes focused on the steel tray, not daring to look away. “You don’t seem so pleased yourself!” Arkay snorted as he got up from his seat. He had been helping Galyn by mixing various vials, then placing them inside a … Read more

Lots of Tastes

“Too much cake?” Arkay groaned, holding his stomach. It was technically midnight, but time was often a flimsy concept on the Thantir Two. There was an internal date system that vaguely corresponded with time both with nearby Life Oases and Deathven, but it didn’t make much sense to Arkay. As far as he was concerned, … Read more

Rude Interrupted Chat

Retvik yawned as he stretched his arms out, then wrapped one around Litvir. Pieces of armour were strewn around the small room, alongside bedsheets and various pillows, all of which should have been on the bed but had been knocked off in the heat of the moment. “That was fun…” Litvir muttered. Both of them … Read more

Swapped Offers

“Good day, General Rethais! For what reason are you gracing me with your presence today?” Rethais stood in the doorway to Reniir’s home. Or rather, what was left of it. The walls were still standing, but not much else was. Furniture had been thrown around and smashed, window frames were buckled and bent and the … Read more
