Briefly Missing Moments

Kairos perched on the roof of the crystal tower that he had been residing in for the last couple of days. This was not his true home. No, Kairos had been made to live in one of his mother’s many palaces, while Kinisis and Kenon kept an eye on him and constantly asked him questions. … Read more

The Library of Heliochron

The Library of Heliochron was one of the most popular locations in the Tragon territories of Keros, but today, the Library was oddly empty. The majority of the Tragon population was out on the streets, celebrating the holiness of their deity, the Whenvern, partying, drinking, playing in the honour of the Time Lord. In fact, … Read more

“Your fate has been decided.” Arkay was struggling to comprehend how all of this had happened. As soon as he had arrived in Deathven alongside Vikalos, everything had been a strange rush. Rather than getting a tour of the place, Arkay had been marched from strange location to strange location, accompanied by black-robed beings with … Read more

Very Briefly Dead

“Kairos!” A sharp, stinging sensation soared across Kairos’s body, starting from his chest and resonating outwards. “Kairos!

“You know there is more to existence than toasted cheese sandwiches, right?” Ostos stood in the kitchen doorway, his skeletal centaur rear end partially blocking the main hallway behind him. “There’s not much else to existence, really…” Arkay muttered. This was the first time Ostos had seen the Decayling since the incident with the vessel … Read more

Unwanted Brother’s Visit

“Hello, little brother!” Elkay sighed as he opened the front door. Standing there quite calmly was Retvik Rethianos, a living legend and Elkay’s older half-brother. He was too tall to enter the small, Skyan house normally and had to duck under the doorway to come inside. Elkay led him into the house and closed the … Read more

Babysat

“I know you’re there, you two…” Arkadin sat up, nudging Kairos with his elbow as he did so. The two deities had been lying in the long, silvery grass, staring off into the night sky. With their godly eyes, they had watched a new sun being born, a new species rise up, two races going … Read more

Space Between Universes 12

Someone screamed. They screamed out in pain. Then everything went silent. Everything was dark, the air felt damp and heavy and the floor… the floor was moving. Black, glutinous tendrils covering the ground, slithering around, reaching, feeling, claiming. Another sound. A cry for help. The whole vessel was silent again. Apart from the tendrils.

Vikalos was mindlessly staring out of the large, tinted window when something tinked on the table next to him. A small clink of a noise, the sound of porcelain coming into harsh contact with granite and glass.

Space Between Universes 9

Outside, the pure white vehicle floated ominously, having drifted across the space between universes on silky golden sails, using a solid gold anchor to hold it in place. The owner of this strange ship had waved down the Deathven Vessel known as Shimmer’s Plight, demanding to speak to the Decay-Lords on board. This owner was … Read more
