Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Psiksi sat on the edge of the little tree house, unsure what to do with himself. He was supposed to be visiting local Rethan villages and trying to convince them that they should register to vote (and potentially get them to vote for his brother) but Psiksi just couldn’t be bothered. He’d only managed to … Read more
The Rethan ship landed cautiously on the tarmac, and uneasily opened up, revealing its nervous passengers. The ten passengers carefully left the ship, and immediately headed to the specially prepared room, which was also filled with other, even more cautious Rethans. Everywhere else had been carefully sealed off from public access. “Rethais, Lepidas, Emthion, it … Read more
“WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?” Kayelar sat in his chair, arms and legs firmly crossed in a vague attempt to protect himself and not look scared at the same time. The High General had been throwing things across the room for about twenty minutes now and he didn’t seem willing to stop quite yet. “WHY? WHY?” … Read more
“Wow…” Elkay shrugged his shoulders, shifting his armour, as he gazed upon the cheering crowds all around him. His armour, designed to both protect him and conceal his identity, was hindering his view quite a bit, he hadn’t really noticed until now just how many beings were watching. By his feet was Elefthras, his defeated … Read more
Kayelar was not normally used to crowds this big. Heck, he wasn’t really used to crowds at all. The only crowds he ever saw were from the windows of the Maza buildings in Portalia and Kolasi, and even then, those crowds were normally protesting something from some other race. Just the other day, they were … Read more
The ship floated almost lifelessly in orbit around the dead, rocky planet. Occasionally, a spurt of energy would push the ship upwards, briefly away from the planet, a vague, failing attempt to reorientate itself. Inside, a lone being sat, lost in their thoughts. The being didn’t look human. A strange suit made of both organic … Read more
“Is the line secure?” “Yes.” “Positive?” “I am positive. Photeianos does not know about this call.” “Good.” Rethais breathed a sigh of relief. For once, Elkay wasn’t insisting that he go to some place in the middle of nowhere to call him. Rethais leaned back in his comfy chair, feeling much better. “So how are … Read more
Arkay could hear whimpering. The sound was coming from a small clearing in the forest. Fallen leaves covered the ground, and a weak sun shined through the empty branches above. But the clearing was lacking in leaves, showing open ground, with dew-coated grass. On a closer inspection, something was moving in the middle of it. … Read more
“EMTHION!” The High General stormed into the office, pushing past the two Ksa stationed in the doorway. Emthion looked up from the piles of paperwork and unfinished bills and all sorts from his desk with a loud sigh. “Yes, General Photeianos? I am very busy right now.” Photeianos didn’t seem to care. He swiped his … Read more
“How long has she been like that?” “Since we arrived on Portalia.” “Wow…” Thymos and Phovos both watched over Mavri, who had been silent apart from the odd whimper for about twenty for hours now. She wasn’t physically hurt, but deep down, she was heart-broken. The betrayal of her own children had torn at her … Read more
On the 21st of January PDW, the Queen of the Thanatians, Mavri Thyra Tromou, declared that she was making plans for the Thanatians to have their first official set of elections, in order to get herself and her king/partner Thymos Tromou elected into power legally. She announced that these elections would be part of a … Read more
The huge, gem-encrusted hall was bustling with bodies big and small, all filing in through a single pair of doors at one end of the room. At the other end were eighteen raised thrones, the two in the middle being particularly large to seat the oversized beings that sat in them. The last few beings … Read more
