Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Vaksavar peered through the frosted window, squinting to see the movement in the streets below. From the weirdly joyous yet muffled racket that could be heard, Vaksavar assumed that the Rethavok were having a pretty good time, cheering after every single one of their new High General’s words and then cheering for a lot longer … Read more
“You want to farm Ash parts? Specifically the Ash Systems?” “Yep.” It had been some time since Smolt had evolved into Smallnaros, and it had been even longer since Volt had seen the former newbie he had picked up and trained a while back. Things had clearly happened since then, what with Volt having switched … Read more
“What are you doing, Allbirther?” Yisini didn’t respond to the question. She was busy peering down a microscope, staring intently as she very gently nudged some cells around on a glass dish and observed the results. “Allbirther, I am talking to you.” Yisini continued to not respond. She needed to concentrate on what she was … Read more
“ARKY!” Yisini screeched with excitement as she wrapped her serpentine body around the Thantophor, squishing him in the warmest and friendliest hug imaginable, before letting go and dropping Arkadin on a small stool in front of where she was working. “HOW ARE YOOOOU? I HAVEN’T SEEN YOU IN AAAAAAGES!” Having sat her sudden new best … Read more
“So, how are we holding up?” While most of the surrounding fields of concrete bunkers were rather quiet, with their occupants resting, this particular bunker had a lot of sudden visitors, all meeting up to discuss the future of the small community that had popped up out of nowhere. Scattered across the main table in … Read more
Teekay eyed the strange layout in front of him, unsure what to make of it. He had received a message telling him to go to the “obviously out of place bench” at the Picnic Park located in lower Palaestra. Being the winter months, the park was mostly empty, its main occupants being Ksithans walking their … Read more
The ship shifted silently down the tarmac right into the center of the Portalia City Space Port, surrounded by other ships that had either just landed or were refueling and preparing for their next flights. The simple Skyan charter ship was nothing special, many of them passed through this particular space port every day, importing … Read more
“So, tell me about yourself?” Vaksavar was struggling to believe his eyes and ears. Moments ago, he had been sitting on the floor, heavy chains around his arms and legs, being essentially kept as a pet. Suddenly he was now sitting on what was essentially a golden throne with plush red cushions, the chains having … Read more
Arkadin kept his eyes closed as he stood on the pedestal, being inspected up and down by Kinisis, the All-Maker. Apart from a couple of hellos, neither of them had said much. Kinisis saw what Arkadin was going through, stood him on the pedestal then began to wander around, trying to work out what the … Read more
Kairos shook off the ash and snow from his back as he landed on the platform that led into his crystal palace, one of the many shimmering abodes Kairos had scattered across the universe. He had been dealing with a weird time anomaly on top of a mountain that had a tired, bored Thraki sitting … Read more
Arkadin sighed as he continued to dig, shoveling earth down a deep, dark hole. All around him were abandoned buildings, all shaken up by a recent earthquake Arkadin had accidentally caused. The hole he was trying to fill had been a church dedicated to the Thantophor himself, but most of the structure had collapsed into … Read more
Tenuk yawned as he threw himself into the tattered recliner, desperately gripping the mug of strong mead he had grabbed from goodness knows where. Someone gave it to him and Tenuk was finally going to sit down and drink it, after about twenty minutes of being distracted from his break by people needing things. Thankfully, … Read more
“I’m impressed. You got pretty far before anyone tracked you down.” Elkay stopped what he was doing and stared at the green Ksithan blocking his only exit out of the room. He had been hauling bags of laundry around, shoving dirty fabric into a couple of industrial washing machines, then filling a single industrial tumble … Read more
Vaksavar had remained in the corner for about an hour now, watching helplessly as the Voidlord smashed through the room, destroying everything in sight. Lord Kenon had been in a foul rage for a long time, seething with anger yet not actually informing his loyal subjects what the problem was. Multiple Rethan soldiers and guards … Read more
“Retvik!” The weird, tall, gangling Rethavok-like being with blue and silver armour charged over to where Retvik and Rethais were standing, wrapping his arms around Retvik and hugging him tightly. It took a moment to realize who this being was. It also took a moment for them both to realise where they were, standing just … Read more
