Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
The crowds were wild today. Oddly fickle. Hungry and waiting for more. They all knew something was going on, that some sort of secret was about to be revealed. The match was to be a simple one. A popular Torr gladiator versus the Raptoric Scythe, a newer house fighter, who represented the arenas themselves. Clad … Read more
“You were a teacher once?” Galyn asked as he cradled the baby Beh’evok, trying to get it to go to sleep. “Yep. My career path was kinda weird!” Kayel smiled. He had been on baby-watching duty for the last hour, and Galyn was back to take over. He had tried to persuade Galyn to take … Read more
“I am genuinely concerned about how many vok here want to keep Beh’enlu…” Retvik grunted as he and Litvir filled out some paperwork. It turned out, sect leaders needed to report back to Deathven proper on a regular basis. Galyn used to do this stuff so Retvik and Litvir didn’t need to, but the appearance … Read more
“Hello, Levik.” Tromos Polemistis was the new manager of the Great Arenas, taking over after the Ancient Warlord disappeared during the Sudden Darkness back in November. And despite most important folks thinking he was too fresh for the role, Tromos had actually slightly increased profits, and was genuinely doing a good job. Sure, Tromos wasn’t … Read more
“Alright, kiddo, contract’s signed, you’ve paid up, here are the keys, she’s all yours!” Letharus was trying to remain cool and collected on the outside, but as he clutched the shiny, golden set of keys in his hand, internally, Letharus was insanely excited. He was now the proud owner of a tiny but hardy ship … Read more
Ret and Kuta weren’t supposed to be out and about right now. For reasons unknown, the Thantir had rather strict curfews and bed times for the younger members, as well as an insistence that everyone got five hours of sleep or rest for every fifteen hours they were awake. But for reasons neither Ret nor … Read more
“I do not think I have ever seen Itaviir so damn terrified before…” “Considering that you’ve known Itaviir for a while, that sounds bad.” Retvik had just finished burning some corruption out from a patient, while Kayel had watched on and assisted somewhat, mostly by holding a bottle of Life Goddess blood, which Retvik had … Read more
“Does this happen often?” Arkay asked as he struggled for breath. It turned out that stopping a runaway space ship from crashing into a floating island without damaging anyone or anything was much harder in the space between universes than Arkay expected. But between him, Elkay, Nuh, Gah and Ret, they had managed to stop … Read more
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY!” Kuta and Litvir both knew that they were about to be surprised, but they did their best to pretend to not expect a large cake to be handed to them both. “Well… close enough…” Litvir shrugged as he made the cake Arkay had just given him levitate and float in mid air. “I … Read more
Relkir couldn’t deny that they were briefly scared as something pulled itself through the shadow underneath their desk, but as they realized who it was, they did quickly calm down. “Hello, Kyr Elkay…” Relkir got up from their desk so the dark being could get up, then stood to one side and greeted the God … Read more
Vekeus glanced at his reflection in the window as he landed his ship in the parking area of Savepoint, the base for a terrifying sect of Decay Lords. Okay, maybe not terrifying, but Vekeus was a Voidborn, and the Thantir were behind the extinction of most of the local Voidborn Cults. But also, one of … Read more
Litvir sighed to themselves as they wiped golden blood off their face. They didn’t like killing these Voidborn intruders, but that seemed to be the only way of stopping them from breaking into the universe properly and killing everyone. Litvir had become efficient at killing the intruders, essentially blinding them with bright lights then focusing … Read more
“I’m glad they put us four together!” Kayel chirped as he used his combined fire and ice powers to freeze the corruption all around him and then flash-fry it, causing it to disintegrate. “And this is actually kinda relaxing.” “If you say so…” Nyssi wasn’t so certain, and she’d been feeling uneasy for a while. … Read more
Talok bounced up and down as she followed and somewhat floated behind Thassalin, Kuta and Phovoula down a dark corridor and up a twisting staircase. The Thantir Three was parked outside this strange, black and gold tower, which seemed to split into two forks about half way up. Nyssi and her team had gone right, … Read more
“Hello, little ones!” Vikalos beamed as the Thantir Decaylings all waited in the little classroom that had been set up a while back. “Hello, mister Vikalos!” Talok bounced excitedly in her seat. “Where are mister Saahro and mister Elkay! We doing something different today?” Vikalos nodded, then wandered around the classroom, handing out some strange, … Read more
