Adventures in the Space Between Universes
Litvir was sat at his desk, not really doing much. He’d had a stressful morning helping with purifications. An unusually large Voidborn had come in with some infection on their hand, which they had picked up while “just passing through” and they were unable to remove the infection themselves. What was more unusual though was … Read more
“I am unhappy with your work.” The shimmering silver being waltzed her way into the Grand Victorious Hall, the throne room of the three Justarian Overlords, not caring that she had not been invited, not caring that she had simply walked through doors, walls and security. Present was just one Justarian Overlord today. Peacebringer was … Read more
Telecharm: Hm. Quiet chat. Telecharm: None of you have said much in a while. Telecharm: Well, apart from Shadowshock, but he’s still muted. Telecharm: Dunno if we’re still insulting the guy by calling him a virgin though. Telecharm: But yeah. Quiet chat. None of you have been online. Loopblade-1 is now online. Loopblade-1: Well, we’ve … Read more
“Mister Elkay, are you busy right now?” Elkay glanced over his shoulder as he packed up folders of paper and put them into a larger folder, with the label “Past Trials” written on it. He had just dismissed the Decaylings after a two hour long lesson running down a long list of Decay Lord Trials, … Read more
“Yo.” Kass jumped. And let out a small squeak. And maybe leaked a tiny bit. She span around in a panic, turning to the nearest shadow, away from where she had heard that voice. She wasn’t armed currently, but that didn’t matter. All Kass needed to get away was a dark shadow. But Kass quickly … Read more
Arkiir stepped out of the pitch black room, headed straight forward and kept on walking until they were on their own, out of sight of the guards that lined the walls of the offices of the Twelve Arena Councillors. Once they were on their own, Arkiir found a nice wall to lean against, took a … Read more
“One more exam?” “Yep.” “Just one?” “Yep.” “And that was it?” “Yep.” Lissandra tutted and rolled her eyes. “That was the longest and most boring exam ever though! No, wait, I take it back. That was the second longest and most boring exam ever after that stupid folded time exam!” Teekay shrugged. “Yeah, exams tend … Read more
“I don’t think anyone else noticed.” Elkay glanced down to his side. He’d been watching ships come and go as part of his guard duties, and one familiar ship had just touched down. “Oh, hello, Helkas!” Elkay smiled, happy to see a familiar face. Things had been busy today. A group of Pentathax had come … Read more
“What is going on, Relkir?” Relkir had only just started feeling better as they arrived home, but as the front door opened up and Gath stood in the doorway in front of them, Relkir suddenly felt uneasy again. They were also wearing a face mask, a vague attempt to pretend that they still had a … Read more
“You should not have brought me here…” Relkir had been unable to speak for hours, but that was the first sentence they managed to utter. They had been uneasily waiting at Litvir’s little apartment for someone to come along and take them to see a specialist, while Litvir watched on. Eventually, Elkay had come along … Read more
“Relkir? Is everything alright?” The family home was full of life today. Gath was doing at-home care with baby Retvik, and the schedules of Litvir and Relkir had coincided, meaning they both somehow had the day off at the same time. Because of this, Gath had decided to do a family meal together, and had … Read more
“Bloody Void, I know I cooked up a feast and we ate heartily, but there is something about pizza that cures so many ills…” Everyone present nodded in agreement, but not much was said because everyone was also stuffing their faces with pizza. After a moment though, Litvir managed to empty his mouth enough to … Read more
“This city is huge.” “It is.” Letalis sighed as he and Litvir sat on the steps of the entrance to the Temple of the Eternal Healing Flame, gazing out at the City of Telia. “It is insanely huge. An entire planet that is a city.” “Apart from the poles. They are too cold and windy. … Read more
Unlike many races, most Rethans had no interest in tobacco or alcohol post-coitus. While drinking was common outside the bedroom and often led to the bedroom, while inside the bedroom, after sex, the relaxation treat of choice was always a hardstick, a chalky, hard white sweet in the shape of a chunky, long cigarette, often … Read more
“So why DOES everyone call you the Missing?” Veeyel asked as he downed yet more mead. “Because you guys weren’t even missing for that long.” Arkay shrugged. He was also drinking mead but he wasn’t digesting it, he was storing it in his pseudo-stomach to avoid getting drunk. But he was starting to need to … Read more
