Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Transcript from Kolasia Vohran Nest Nuvak: What the hell, Korak? What the hell are you doing? Where the hell is Talok? Korak: Talok is a Varga now. Nuvak: What? How? Korak: Queen triggered it early. She was bored, apparently. Nuvak: And that is an excuse to turn our best Kalsa Warrior into a Varga twenty … Read more
Kalsa Warrior Korak had been on Entrance Duty for the last 15 hours. She was sick and tired of it, but she was due to finish in a few minutes. She’d arranged to spend an hour with her best friend Talok, also the leader of Group A-L, her Kalsa regiment. They’d been meaning to get … Read more
“Someone get the damn door!” Tenuk shouted angrily from the bathroom. Arkay, who had been asleep all day due to a nasty headache, woke up from the lounge and wearily went to the entrance of the Dessaron’s quarters. He flung the door open, not expecting to see two Rethan officers standing there. “Are you Arkay … Read more
Translated from Laniaglos, language of the Lania Come, children, come listen. For I have the reasons behind the blackening of the sky, the destruction of our highest mountain, the fleeing of time. I saw them with my own four eyes, I heard their battle. Life and Death came together as one. The skies blackened when … Read more
“You know what I’m going to say, don’t you?” Arkay nodded. He didn’t need to say anything, he just wanted Skios to get it over with. He’d finally gotten out of hospital. Thankfully, apart from a small infection from an injury, he was perfectly fine. The Deitics hadn’t done anything worrying to Skios. But that … Read more
I have been watching since the Phovan universe faded into emptiness, waiting as its remaining particles decay and eventually bloom into something new. These blooms grow into new universes, each governed by new rules, somewhat related to their mother universe but different enough to be new entities of their own. The Artikai universe is one … Read more
Tenuk sighed as he sat down on the little glass stool, while he waited for Death to finish off whatever she was doing. Whatever it was, it involved a lot of screaming, which abruptly came to a halt. Finally, the wall ahead of him opened up and a couple of Veth charged out, carrying two … Read more
“Wow, you look really bloody depressed today, Tenuk!” Death waved the lanky Rethan towards her, before disappearing behind a curtain of shadows and smoke. She was clearly trying to be suggestive but it wasn’t working. “You know exactly why I am depressed, Death!” Tenuk sighed. “What in the name of the Li-” Tenuk paused. He … Read more
Tenuk approached the large, green dome with caution. Standing around it was a large, white, gun metal and blue Veth with what looked like wings. It seemed absolutely exhausted though, as it was panting heavily but also happily. To the Veth’s right, a panel opened in the dome. Out of it stepped Death, mid-shapeshift, from … Read more
“Ah, you came back!” Death smiled as she poured herself a glass of something fizzy. “I knew you would. Still, glad to see you. Please, sit down!” Tenuk glanced at the small glass seats that popped out of the ground. “O-of course. Do you have more stories to tell today? Or do you just want … Read more
The hospital was incredibly busy dealing with the huge influx of dead and dying beings, as well as the sudden burst of pregnancies, births and miscarriages. But this corner of the hospital was pretty empty. No wonder, as it was the Quarantine section. In the corner of the room was a large, plastic bubble with … Read more
“Where in the name of the Light are you?” The Vice General’s voice screeched down Teekay’s communicator. Goodness knows how long he had been trying to call him. “I apologize, ser…” Teekay glanced around. He was in the middle of a large, grassy plain. The sun was slowly rising over some mountains to the east, … Read more
“Why do you always invite me here?” Tenuk asked as he pulled up a chair and sat down. Across the table sat what could only be described as the solid shadow of a Thanatian-like being. Complete with glowing white eyes. “I enjoy your company,” the creature smiled, showing rows upon rows of shiny, needle-like teeth, … Read more
“Brother?” The second he heard that voice, Retvik leaped up from his chair, arms and legs straight. Close to a standard Rethan salute. “General.” “No need for rank, Retvik. Sit down.” Retvik did as he was told, as his brother closed the door behind him and sat by his side. “What do you want, Rethais? … Read more
