Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“JATTTASEY!” One panicked, static-filled word just flooded the comms. We pick up signals like this all the time, but as we’re nothing more than a shipment vessel, there’s not much we can do about them. It’s always the much larger military ships that get attacked anyway. The problem is that we’re currently docked at V … Read more Jatttasey!
“Operator, you have messages, are you not going to respond?” Ordis had been watching Volt do void fissure missions for hours and concern was budding in the Cephalon’s mainframe. Volt had blatantly ignored Ordis every other time he had tried to slow him down and stop him from doing more missions, but now Ordis had … Read more Catching up with Frost
The little Ember sent her message again, knowing that it would be ignored. Her message entered the Recruitment Channel and swiftly disappeared, pushed aside by a stream of other messages all saying things she didn’t understand. “LF AXI L3” “H 4X3 NEED HARROW” “LF PROFITTAKER” “H ESO 3/4” None of it made any sense to … Read more Ember and the Helpful Stranger
Volt waved cheerily as he watched the young Mag fly off in her plain grey Liset. He had accidentally stumbled into a Grineer mining facility where they had been secretly broadcasting attack patterns and security information to other Grineer ships waiting in orbit, and this poor Mag seemed to be really struggling on her own. … Read more Oooooold
The scream echoed across the dying cosmos, bouncing between dying dwarf stars and sputtering quasars, only to be muffled by the slowly encroaching darkness. Corpses littered the star ways, celestial bodies and god-like beings both torn apart and ravaged, drifting lifelessly and eternally. For millennia, a war had been fought between a myriad of forces, … Read more The End Before The Beginning
Iron Wake was always empty late in the evening, which was why it was a perfect place for four Tenno to have a sneaky little get together. Frost brought the tent, Volt brought the blankets and snacks, Ember made a fire and Saryn had managed to buy some bottles of drink from a villager on … Read more Tenno Coming Together
Apart from the tiny piece of floating debris they were standing on, there was nothing but empty blackness. Retvik took a deep breath and to his surprise he discovered he was still breathing oxygen and nitrogen. A second breath confirmed his suspicions, that there was an artificial pocket of air around the little rock he … Read more Dreaded Final Farewell
Elkay stared out of the window, watching the city of Thre-Vretania. It was a large city, full of life and love and all that sort of thing. Something though felt different. As if the city had changed overnight and no one had noticed. Elkay’s office was above it all, furnished simply but designed in such … Read more Change over the City
Larunda Relay was busier than normal. On the Concourse of the relay, over fifty Tenno had gathered, half of which were taking part in the bi-weekly Larunda Fashionframe Contest. The contestants all stood in a ring, waiting for the head judge to pick a Tenno out. The spectators, of which there were quite a few, … Read more A Fashionframe Dilemma
“So, my darlings!” Yenis grinned as she spread herself out elegantly on a sofa, then spread her legs out inelegantly. “It’s been a few days! How do you feel about things so far?” Mesos and Telos had two very different expressions on their faces. While Mesos beamed with a combination of joy, satisfaction and happy … Read more Been a Few Days
“Sit.” Tenuk did as he was told, sitting down on the only available surface, a bench made out of the skull of a large creature. Between him and the creature in front of him was a small, white table, held up by four legs made out of bone. On the table were two porcelain cups … Read more Tale: Tea with Death 22
“My fellow Kronospasts. Today we-” A bright, white glow emanated from the middle of the golden table. Each of the Kronospasts sitting around it rolled their eyes. Suddenly, a red, silver and blue Kronospast appeared from the glowing light. “No, dad, just no!” Lord Avra rolled his eyes in disgust. The other Deitics, all wearing … Read more A Different Path
“It’s ironic really…” Istoria muttered to herself as she lounged around, wearing nothing but her pink and black ‘universal belts’. “Arkay’s the Death God, but his name suggests a new beginning.” Arkay wasn’t really paying attention. He was busy floating about a meter in the air, staring off into the distant mists of Kinigi. While … Read more Godly Names
The Dasos Arena hadn’t been used in a very long time. Everything was overgrown and straggly, filled with a mixture of dead honey-oak trees and decaying fir trees, their roots mingling in the stagnant mud. It had always been designed as an arena filled with trees, but as fads came and went, the Raptor had … Read more Thursday the Fifteenth
“Alright…” Continuity muttered to himself. “Feels like this is working…” He tightened the small belts that ran across his chest. “You sure?” Arkay was feeling uncertain. The straps and belts around his body felt weird and oddly sexual. If he had been a creature with breasts and external genitalia, they would have been perfectly framed … Read more Attractive Avatars
