Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
The Dasoudi Arena wasn’t normally used for venator battles because it was very uneven and full of trees, but the trees were starting to get old and rotten, so it was decided to hold some large, destructive battles in order to celebrate the arena closing down so it could be rebuilt. Today’s battle featured a … Read more
Veeyel had taken to being the All-Ksa pretty well, all things considered. He had never believed he’d be All-Ksa, and was admittedly only where he was because the previous All-Ksa had been found chopped in half and his body had been stolen. Sure, Elkay was somehow brought back to life by the Allmaker and turned … Read more
“So… you’re the same species as Kaytee and the Loopblades and Arkay?” Elkay-En had hoped that no one would have noticed him, but this group of visitors were rather curious, and two of them were of a familiar shape to Elkay-En. The much larger one (which was at the upper limits for a Standard-type Retha) … Read more
“I don’t get why you four enjoy that shit…” Tenuk grunted as he, Elksia and the four half-Synaisthyns disembarked the Thantir Three. Normally, they would have returned to Savepoint and Elksia and Tenuk, two of the (slightly) older Thantir, wouldn’t have left base in the first place, but Elksia wanted to stretch her legs and … Read more
“How are you feeling, Litvir?” Aster asked as he floated outside the hospital window. “I am fine!” Litvir smiled. “I am a deity, of course I am fine!” “You were, according to Elkay, hit by a fifty calibre bullet.” Litvir shrugged. They were leaning on the window sill, looking for the ship they had briefly … Read more
As Rethavok were prone to going into a feral defensive rage over their threatened kids, as Rethan society began to grow, most Rethans started raising their kids in large nurseries, in order to better protect their babies and also not become adrenaline-fuelled monsters at the sight of their kids being accidentally hurt, especially as some … Read more
“Hello, Kyr Rethais…” The High General was busy looking out of the gigantic window of the Grand Hall, overlooking their almost perfect city. Rethais didn’t have any work to do, but they did have one last meeting, a social one, before they planned to head home. The voice behind them was expected but oddly timid. … Read more
“So, we are finally doing this?” Elkay asked as he slammed the door to his private quarters, making definitely sure that no one was following him. Arkay was already sitting on the bed, trying to hide that he was anxious. Really, they both were. “Yeah, I think we are. Taken us long enough.” Elkay checked … Read more
Fengar had just finished his patrols, and had been relieved by Arkay, literally a member of a Hidden Trio, of all people. Apparently folks called him the Guardian of the Thantir, and he’d do a lot of guard duty whenever he was around. Fengar appreciated the break, he had admittedly been doing longer than normal … Read more
“Uh, Lord Vikalos?” Fengar still wasn’t really sure how to speak to his new bosses. The Phantai, Moonblade’s former sect, were very strict, but everyone just used their codenames so that strictness wasn’t too obvious. But Vikalos, codename Firestorm, was an oddly terrifying entity. Before Moonblade had met Vikalos in person, he had heard the … Read more
Elkay had been busy with his normal blood donations, and today, he had donated mor than usual, as Kal had requested an extra 100ml for testing purposes. That would have bothered Elkay, but when Leh said they wanted the samples to do experiments on preserving his blood, Elkay quickly agreed. But all that was over … Read more
Everything was black again, but at least this time, it was a familiar black, a void filled with delicate flickering and floating candles. And standing over the Missing was a familiar disgruntled face. “What did you do?” Litvir and Retvik didn’t have an answer. Arkay though immediately apologised. “I’m sorry. I acted on instinct. I … Read more
Everything was black. Black and squidgy. Oddly smooth. Warm though. Weirdly warm. Like a protective bubble of goo. One surrounding Retvik and Litvir. “Oh, thank the Light, you are awake!” Litvir seemed very sleepy, but he also seemed to have been trying to wake Retvik up for a while. “I do not know what is … Read more
“So, what are you going to spend your winnings on?” “What winnings?” Kayel lifted himself up from the Skyan snuggle pile. He was partially trapped underneath Psiksi’s arm and Ksar Teekay’s tail. “Oh, you weren’t here, Ksarkay!” Psiksi giggled. “Kayel and Nyssi made a silly bet. Kayel won.” Ksar Teekay blinked, then rolled over a … Read more
“This spa is the best.” Retvik glanced at Arkay and Litvir as the three of them laid in a warm, wood-lined room. Delicate water sounds trickled through the air, a gentle breeze wafted through and a myriad of small, cat-like beings were wandering around, rubbing up and down the three Missing’s bodies, while three more … Read more
