Gentle Brushing 6

Vikalos smiled to himself as he finished what he was doing, drying his fur with a towel after exiting the Thantir’s decontamination showers. Sure, they had special blow-dryers to dry folks off, and Vikalos could manipulate fire and instantly raise the ambient temperature to dry himself completely, but he did like to use a towel. … Read more

Secret Bouncy Gladiator Training

“Okay, I have a question! Actually, I have lots and lots of questions, and they’ll get progressively more annoying the more you have to listen to me, but my question right now is why are we training in secret?” “We are training in secret?” Abius asked, answering Levik’s question with a question of their own. … Read more

Offer of the Guardian

“Why has the ship stopped?” Garblexus was expecting this to be a simple raid. His crew of pirates had been kicked out of the Chrysanth Lea by the Pentathax, they’d been chased out of the Alsyrian Sea by the Alsyr and the Ekthris and now they were planning to raid this collection of islands in … Read more

New Game Plus

It had been a while since Elkay had returned to his actual home. Since Elkay was the All-Ksa, he technically had multiple homes, the All-Ksa’s villa, which he hated, a large penthouse apartment in End One which was close to work, and his own little apartment on the edge of End Seven Thirteen, where Elkay … Read more

Asocial Voidborn Advice

“Theocydes, Kesistatir, I need advice.” Normally, the three Adogtic Voidborns met at the Shield and Stave pub, but today, Vekeus had requested they go a bit further south, to the Chrysanthum Baths, a small Life Goddess resting area, not quite a Life Oasis, but still technically a spa and oasis of some sort. As a … Read more

Distant Mortal Regrets

“You knew her, right?” Arkay glanced up to see who was talking to him. He’d been sitting on his own for a bit, trying to get over a sudden panic of his. The original plan was for Arkay to start doing little tasks for the Thantir, and Litvir had suggested that he could work as … Read more

Second’s First

Levik shivered briefly as he stepped into the Sandblast Arena, a small, open battlefield with nowhere to hide, nowhere to run. On the opposite side of the area was a recurring gladiator known as Viktor the Vorrible, a warrior sponsored by the Vrekan government who often tested newbie gladiators from other races, normally in close-quarters … Read more

Meeting the Blades Again

“So, why are you all so obsessed with Life Goddesses?” Sini asked as she followed Soulblade and his two minions off the ship and into the depths of the Shimmering Blade. As they walked, patrolling Decay Lords would glance at Sini, lower their heads and utter various things, anything from curses about finding Sini beautiful … Read more

Life Goddess Lure

“We need to assist them!” “Lightblade, slow down.” “They sent a distress flare!” “Lightblade, listen!” “We have to go right now!” “PHOS, STOP!” Lightblade finally did as he was told, mostly because using his actual name rather than his codename always caught him off guard and made him pause. But also Soulblade and Voidblade were … Read more

Silly Flare

“You… want to approach that massive ship?” Vexer asked as he slowed the ship down. “Yep!” Sini smiled. “You want to approach the massive ship full of Decay Lords, with the not-so-friendly name The Shimmering Blade emblazoned down every side?” “Yep.” “You… know we’re supposed to protect you, right? And advise you and assist you, … Read more

Hot Thoughts

“Hey, babe, you busy right now?” Litvir’s eyes lit up as he spun around to greet the being who had approached him. “Arkay, dear! No, I am not busy! Is something troubling you?” Arkay glanced around awkwardly, making very well sure that no one was paying attention to him and Litvir. Picking up that Arkay … Read more

Ret-Concilliation

Everything had been utterly quiet at Savepoint. Not a single person had come by, looking for assistance, for the last 80 hours. Which, considering the duties of the Thantir, was a damn good thing. It meant everyone could just chill out, and the only people really working were Kal, who had offered to be on … Read more

Holiday Recap

“So, how were your winter celebrations?” Dalosisaar asked as everyone sat themselves down for the Twelve Anew report meeting. “I think I am still hung over…” Maresia muttered as she rubbed her head. “Too much to drink. Turns out, being deified doesn’t stop you from getting drunk, just makes you capable of drinking more.” Valkisa … Read more
