Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Arkay had been watching the Threanic-like being going in and out of the kitchen for a while now. Out of all the members of the Thantir, quite a few of them were Skyavok-shaped. Not all the same species, but they looked similar enough. Teekay, Eksi and Psiksi were old-universe Skyavok, Kayel was a new-universe Skyavok … Read more
It was very rare that all three members of the Missing were in the same room together during normal working hours, but since the Thantir was now a much larger sect, it meant that the Thantir’s leaders didn’t have to work all the time. Currently, Retvik was browsing through supplies, to see if there was … Read more
Elkay was mostly minding his own business, doing little tasks around the Great Library Near the Centre of the Universe. Wasn’t anything special, it was mostly putting back books that had been misplaced. Elkay liked this little job because, unlike most of his staff, Elkay knew where pretty much every book was supposed to go. … Read more
“So, you want to buy a ship?” Arkay nodded. “Technically, I’ve been wanting to buy a ship for a while. Ever since I was a Decayling.” “And when we still shared a body!” Koh added. “But yes, since the others all have everything covered, Tah and I can help you pick some stuff out. At … Read more
“We need a holiday. And I want to buy things.” Retvik looked up from his work, a report on how many patients had been treated that day, as well as the types of corruption that had affected them. “A holiday?” Litvir asked as he also looked up from his work, sorting out schedules. “Yeah. A … Read more
“Dalosisaar, are you busy right now?” The might white and gold Thraki glanced up from their huge desk, one that had been customised to match Dalosisaar’s less upright shape. “Not in particular. Is something wrong, Aster?” Aster sighed, then entered Dalosisaar’s office, closing the door behind him. “Seems like something is every wrong, Aster. Come … Read more
“I am really unsure how they all talked us into doing this…” Elkay muttered as he closed the door behind him and locked it up, before dumping something on his desk. “I’m amazed that we agreed too,” Arkay exclaimed, pulling the curtains shut. “But I’m more surprised that Teekay is fine with this. And Retvik … Read more
“Hey, Litvir, how are you? We haven’t spoken much lately.” The metal hatch at the top of the universe was mostly there to get rid of things, mostly bits of dead Voidborn and occasionally live Voidborns as well. But the void had been very quiet lately. No break-ins, no Voidborns, no bits of Corruption, nothing. … Read more
Gath’s chest still hurt, in fact, most of Gath’s body hurt, but at least they were still alive. Just about. Gath wasn’t quite sure, and it didn’t help that they had heard some scary words, things like “they need oxygen” and “life support on its way”, things like that. Now Gath was awake though, they … Read more
“Hello, kid, what are you doing up?” Litvir inched downstairs, towards where Gath was standing in the kitchen. “I… I heard you get up. It is very late. You do not normally get out of bed at all.” Gath grunted. They seemed to be in a little bit of pain. There was a glass of … Read more
Gath never thought they would have ever said this, but they had ordered way too much pizza. Normally Relkir made pizza, kneading their own dough, making their own sauce and picking out toppings, but the last few days, in the evenings, Gath and Relkir were celebrating with their nearly-adopted kid Litvir, so they got takeaway … Read more
“Why are we looking at rocks in the Void again?” Atteh’Kus wasn’t particularly smart. But that was fine. Atteh’Kus was the meat tank of Sini’s six guardians. He didn’t need to think, he was there to both body-block threats and also incinerate them. Or stab them with his horns. Or stamp on them. Or just … Read more
Litvir stared at the piece of fancy paper they were holding. It was more of a scroll, but Litvir appreciated how the paper felt. For a moment, Litvir wondered if the piece of paper was as old as Litvir was. About two hours ago, the graduation of Litvir’s year had finished. Every single young Rethan … Read more
“You were gone a while.” The Thantir Three had landed about five minutes ago, and already Kaytee and Ret had gone off to clean themselves up. Retvik though was lingering a little bit, but once he had locked the ship up, he made his way to the canteen, for something to eat. However, Retvik had … Read more
“So, er, what do I owe you for all this?” Vick asked as he watched Ret dusting the floors. Everything else was already done, and they’d managed to save money on glass, as Retvik had collected all the shards of glass and melted them down again, before shaping them and putting the panes back in … Read more
