Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“Everything ready for take-off?” Galyn asked as Arkay sat down and strapped himself in. “I’ve gone through everything on the list and that is all good, so if that means everything is ready, then yes.” Galyn glanced behind him, where Retvik and Litvir had both also sat down and put on their safety belts. “Are … Read more
“Oh thank heavens, are you here to take me back to the ship?” Arkay exclaimed as he spotted Galyn approaching. “Like, this place is nice, but there are only so many draconic time references I can take before I start going more insane!” Galyn looked down at Arkay and quietly nodded, before leading him back … Read more
“I take it you had fun.” Out of the five other Guardians Tenuk worked with, he found it rather odd how strangely agreeable Elkay was. There Tenuk was, lying on the sofa, completely nude and with a sleeping Vrekan in his arms. Yet Elkay had been a complete bro, gotten up early and covered them … Read more
“Do you mind if I get something off my chest?” “Is that why you are-” Litvir quietly hissed at Retvik as the two of them laid on their stomachs, their backs and necks being gently massaged by dedicated machinery, being overwatched by a gooey, tentacled Decay Lord who called themselves a “Master Massager”. To their … Read more
“I am so tired…” The two holograms on the other side of the table flickered briefly, both giving Galyn some concerned looks. He had spent about twenty minutes just trying to get the damn projectors to work and broadcast audio, but now he’d gotten them working, he was just getting worried. It wasn’t so much … Read more
The Life Oasis was completely empty. Well, almost. Arkay had wandered in, expecting at least a handful of busty deities chatting to each other, but there was no one around at all. The line of hotel rooms along one wall were all open and unoccupied. The poolside bar was blank. Everything seemed… almost abandoned. But … Read more
“Here is an extra two hundred credits. Spend them on whatever you want, as long as you pick up Arkay and return to the ship when I call you. I am off to have some fun. See you later, kiddos.” Retvik and Litvir watched almost helplessly as Galyn patted them both on the head, then … Read more
The entrance to the Miassivio Pleasure Mall was weirdly high security. There were two sections, a very small, walled off area to one side, and the main collection of buildings, which were surrounded by glistening energy shields. At the gate, there were a collection of security guards, checking beings as they came and went. Or, … Read more
“I do not know why, but this place is almost exactly what I expected…” In the distance, a vast, translucent dome could be seen. A metal ring ran across both its vertical and horizontal hemispheres, emitting glassy, gassy vapours that formed a protective shield around the main facility. Inside was a floating lump of rock … Read more
“I will not lie, things have been pleasant lately.” Litvir glanced to one side, panting heavily, as Retvik put an arm around him. “How are you… not… exhausted?” “You did most of the work,” Retvik smirked. “But do you feel the same? Have things just been more pleasant?” Litvir continued to pant, before allowing his … Read more
“Did he take the bait?” Litvir smirked as he fingered his way through a magazine, flicking through the pages. He glanced up at Galyn, his smirk fading as he realised he needed to get out of Galyn’s seat. “Took the bait and the hook as well.” “Good. Hopefully that means we will be rid of … Read more
Theocydes teleported into the cargo bay, not knowing what to expect. He had spent a long time setting up a ship in distress for the Thantir Two crew to investigate, but they deceived all of Theocydes’s expectations and… ignored it. Clearly something was going on, and Theocydes wanted to find out. The small ship however … Read more
“… And once I have broken its heart, I will tear its heart out as my final act of terror and revenge. How does that sound, Letharus?” Letharus blinked a couple of times, then wiped the drool from his mouth. He hadn’t realised he had been dribbling, but apparently this was a common side-effect of … Read more
Warm, orange lights flickered on as a hiss echoed down the narrow room. Rows of opaque, glass pods lined one wall, while beeping consoles lined the other. Right at the very end of the room, a viscous, sticky liquid began to ooze onto the floor, dripping from the bottom of the penultimate glass pod. After … Read more
Arkay put his bowl of half-eaten pasta down and stared at the damn Voidborn standing in front of him. Theocydes seemed rather pissed off, and it wasn’t too surprising as to why he was fuming. The last time these two had met, Arkay had blown him up blasted him off into the darkness, and it … Read more
