Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“Alrighty, should all be fixed. Gonna take quite a while for the ship to finish its self repairs, but otherwise you’re all good to go!” “Uh, thank you… You didn’t need to…” “It’s fine, mate. Least we can do, us Decay Lords gotta look out for each other. See ya round!” “Uh, bye, thank you…” … Read more
“I just finished fixing tha-” Retvik was unable to finish his sentence as he was rudely thrown against the outside wall of the Thantir Two. The hit caused Retvik to buckle, and shudder, his recovery time being far too low. Standing above him was a familiar face, that of a vengeful Voidborn, clad in gold … Read more
The flood of shouts and panic had very abruptly disappeared, replaced with a stunned, eery silence that almost made no sense. The atmosphere, what little there was, glowed bright orange, flames flickering across its edge. But the source of those flames was completely immobile, held in place by sheer will alone. “Uh… a little help, … Read more
Leaves and vines exploded everywhere as Galyn violently burst out of his regenerative cocoon. After taking a moment to remember how to be alive and conscious, the Decay Lord took a long, deep breath, tasting and smelling his surroundings. Beneath the pungent, acidic smell of his own regenerative fluids, he could sense old carpet, singed … Read more
“Oh. Uh. Hello…” Phovos couldn’t help but stare. She had been sitting at the table on the balcony for about half an hour now, a full twenty minutes before her date was due to start. On the table in front of Phovos were two plates, two glasses, some cutlery, an unopened bottle of water and … Read more
“Lookin’ for somethin’?” Arkay nodded, his eyes glued to the vast wall of confectionery. He had come into this little void kiosk looking to do some much needed shopping, but the brightness and sweetness of this corner of the kiosk was almost hypnotic to him. All Arkay had seen in a long time had been … Read more
“Good news, we are alive. Bad news, the ship is basically dead. Or at least large parts of it are.” The left hand side of the Thantir Two was mostly fine. The right hand side had been heavily damaged. Most of the living space was now uninhabitable and, thanks to a failure in the heating … Read more
Phovos frowned as she peered into the fridge. It was filled to the brim with food and drinks, but none of it was anything she wanted. This particular fridge would magically refill itself with whatever the being opening it wanted. However, the magical refilling powers were meaningless if Phovos didn’t know what she wanted. “You … Read more
A small shudder was the only precursor to the violent blast that rocked the whole ship. Debris from the remains of a passing minor planet had struck not just the Thantir Two but the small Decay Lord-run pit stop they had been anchored to, causing a few too many failures. From one of the observatories, … Read more
“You’re basically in charge again, yet you still work from this tiny office?” Rethais was literally just about to leave his office when the pink and purple cloud appeared. After a couple of seconds, the cloud stopped expanding and thickened into a real form, that of the Allbirther, the serpentine Goddess of Life. But also … Read more
Relkir heard his bedroom door creep open, and someone step inside. The softness of the footsteps, plus the scent and mind patterns, all suggested it was Teekay. Of course it was Teekay, Teekay was the only other Guardian allowed in Relkir’s room, aside from Relkir. But something seemed a bit off in the way Teekay … Read more
The team of Decay Lords were finally taking a break, after hours of ship repairs. While Arkay was in the kitchen, preparing drinks and sandwiches for everyone, Litvir decided that now was probably a good time to get some questions off his mind. After all, he was the newest to all this god-based stuff, but … Read more
“Alright, I’m officially bored now.” Teekay and Relkir watched as Tahnahos paced up and down, trying to work out what to do with himself. Between the six of them, they had exhausted pretty much everything to do. They’d played the three video games they had to death, they’d gotten annoyed at the one single board … Read more
“Ugh, I really, really fucked up.” The tiny pod was barely big enough for one occupant, yet there were four seats wedged into it, two of them empty. This pod was going straight to the Decay Lord stronghold known as Deathven, and normally the trip would be instantaneous, but apparently there was some delay in … Read more
“They have been in there a while.” “They are packaging up two deities so they can be slingshotted across the multiverse and sent to a care home so far away that numbers lose meaning. Of course it will take some time. But yes, they have been in there a while.” Litvir and Retvik both sighed … Read more
