Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Evening matches in the Dessaron Battle Arenas were always interesting, but this was a format Arkay had not seen before, clearly a new type of battle added recently. Everything was much darker than usual and situated in one of the old, forested arenas, meaning you could only see small sections of the battle. Not that … Read more
“So when do we get our weapons?” Sini asked as she pranced around, completely ignoring the fact that her top had come off. “When do we get to hit things?” Arkay rolled his eyes, sitting calmly on a stool, waiting for both Phovos and some of the Arena Trainers to arrive. “They don’t just give … Read more
“You certainly know how to pick them!” Phovos smiled as she leaned by the open doorway to the old Dessaron Headquarters, watching as Arkay struggled to reach high cupboards, trying to put his freshly purchased shopping away. Helping him was an unfamiliar black and lilac Temthan wearing absolutely nothing, who was absent-mindedly shoving food into … Read more
Despite the number of times Sini had fallen flat on her face, she seemed to be enjoying herself. It was nothing more than a trip to the shops, to replenish the food and drinks that Arkay, Sini and the others had… somewhat stolen from Tenuk, but roaming down the aisles of this Ksithan store had … Read more
“I swear I had more stomach wraps than this…” Arkay rummaged through the drawers in his bedroom, desperately trying to find some sort of fabric he could use. “I should have washed all my stuff before I went back to being a god…” The reason for Arkay’s scrambling was somewhat sudden. Being a Skyavok, Arkay … Read more
“Hmph.” “Is something wrong?” Kinisis’s sudden appearance nearly made Kenon react. He was not one to jump or otherwise be shocked by the abrupt appearances of others, but Kinisis had nearly managed to cause Kenon to, well, move. Kenon though was busy, working on one of his many plans and backup scenarios. “Define “wrong” for … Read more
“Hey, Arkay…” Arkadin had been sitting at the table in the kitchen, fiddling with a new communicator device he had stashed away in his bedroom. It was late, later than Arkadin realised, to the point that the night time crickets had stopped chirping. Now that Arkadin thought about it, it was technically morning. “Hey, Tenuk. … Read more
“This is temporary, alright?” The Temthan, the Falena and the Thraki all nodded solemnly as Tenuk opened the front door to the old Dessaron Headquarters. This building, an old, converted warehouse, had seen better days, as the small garden outside was filled with weeds and the interior needed a fresh coat of paint and some … Read more
The four deities watched as a somewhat square ship landed about a hundred metres ahead of them, disappearing behind the trees in a small clearing. As soon as the engine noises died down, Arkadin excitedly rushed towards it, skipping through the grass. “I wish I could be as happy as he is…” Epani grunted as … Read more
They were still walking. They had been walking for hours, and Kairos was sick and tired of it. Was it really hours? Kairos didn’t actually know. Despite being the former god of time, Kairos had lost all sense of direction and just couldn’t tell how long all this had been going on for. If anything, … Read more
It would have been a genuinely pleasant day if there hadn’t been constant cracks of thunder and flashes of lightning. There were no clouds, but the sky was pitch black and very empty, with no moons or anything visible. Despite this, it was still light enough to see, not just because of the lightning. “Woah… … Read more
Kairos, the Dragon God of Time, woke up on the floor, not knowing where he was. The ‘not knowing where he was’ part of that sentence was somewhat worrying, but so was the whole ‘waking up’ point as well. Kairos normally never actually slept, and whenever he did, it was always in short bursts, with … Read more
