Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“Hey, uh, Retvik?” “Mhm?” “Can I ask you something?” Retvik shrugged, turning his attention away from the stars glimmering in the distance. After Tenuk and Elksia headed home for some fun, it was now just Retvik and Phovos left in the otherwise empty bar. “What is bothering you?” Retvik asked. “Is something wrong?” Phovos sighed … Read more
“New look?” Vikalos asked as Arkay stepped out from his little apartment. Behind the elder Decay Lord was an entity about the same size and shape as Arkay, but wrapped in gloopy, starry nebulae. “Uh, yeah…” Arkay stuttered a little. “Just kinda wanted to be more armoured.” “Makes sense…” Vikalos nodded somewhat understandingly, then turned … Read more
Arkay sighed as he picked himself up off the floor, being careful not to step in any of the broken glass scattered across the kitchen. He hadn’t been doing too well over the last week or so, and the randomness of his budding Life Goddess powers were starting to piss Arkay off. “Do you need … Read more
“Hey, Kalis, can I ask you something quickly?” Kalis paused, just as he was about to step into the bathroom. His housing situation was quite odd, especially since there was a glass wall between him and his ‘room mate’. Normally, the being on the other side of the glass, a black and yellow being named … Read more
“Oh, uh… hi Retvik.” Phovos had been minding her own business, gazing out into the darkness. She was supposed to be changing shifts soon, but for some reason, her boss had dragged everyone else into a meeting, so Phovos had the guard balconies to herself. That was, until a rather fiery Rethavok appeared. “Hello, Phovos, … Read more
Arkay hesitated briefly as he stepped out of the cold, grey corridor and into what was now his own little apartment. Immediately to his right was a small kitchen. Ahead of him was a living room and a doorway that lead to the bathroom and bedrooms. Most of the walls were bare and empty, a … Read more
Arkay sat patiently in his chair. Aside from the large screen in front of him, there was very little of interest in the room. The door to his left was closed, with a guard standing on the other side. After what felt like a little too long, the screen switched itself on, and another being … Read more
“How are you feeling today?” Arkay shrugged, not feeling anything in particular. These little therapy lessons were somewhat weird normally, but today’s meeting was somewhat new. “Did you sleep well?” “Hm…” Arkay muttered. “I guess I slept well.” “You did?” “Yeah. At least I think I did. I set a timer on that white noise … Read more
“Wow, this place is fancy!” Elksia was overflowing with joy as she and her oldest friends entered the Kinigi Life Oasis. Waiving them through at the entrance was a small, white Rethan with an icy look to them. Retvik gave a small nod to the little Rethan, then led Tenuk and Elksia deeper into the … Read more
“Good morning!” “Hiya…” Arkay twiddled his thumbs as he anxiously watched Vikalos struggle with a key and let himself in. This room in particular was rather… well-defended. Rubberized walls, sound-proof windows and an anti-energetic device which subconsciously blocked the ability to use any godly powers. Arkay wasn’t sure why he had been brought here, but … Read more
“R-Retvik?” Tenuk stumbled over his words and thoughts as the flame-cloaked mountain of a Rethavok slowly approached. He knew who he was looking at, but was so surprised that Tenuk couldn’t think of anything to say. Thankfully, Elksia took the initiative and stampeded towards the fire god, with not even a hint of hesitation. “RETVIK … Read more
“What are you doing here in the dark?” Litvir asked as he pushed the door slightly ajar. Just out of view was Kuta, muttering to himself. As the door creaked slightly, Kuta looked up to see who was bothering him. “Oh, hi brother, come in if you want…” Kuta seemed somewhat upset. Litvir hesitated slightly, … Read more
“Galyn, may I have another word with you?” Galyn blinked several times, realizing that he had been staring off into the darkness for a while. To his side was Retvik, who had a rather tired look on his face. “Of course, what is troubling you, Retvik?” Retvik tutted a few times to himself, then sat … Read more
“Galyn, can I have a word with you, please?” Galyn glanced up from his makeshift desk. Retvik was standing in the doorway, arms crossed and with a hint of annoyance and anger. “I have an idea of what you are going to say, but yes, you may come in and talk to me. Close the … Read more
“Name, please.” Arkay shifted awkwardly in his seat. Words were a bit difficult currently. Mostly because he’d been crying. A fog of guilt still covered Arkay’s mind, unmoving and not shifting. To the credit of the Decay Lord on the other side of the glass window, they were being very, very patient. “Which one?” Arkay … Read more
