Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“Good day, Wanderer, Starsoarer, Spiritguide, my Travellers.” Eta Carinae and Orion both glanced at each other awkwardly as they and their fellow Trio member Ziital were abruptly teleported in front of the Overlord. Eta was mostly thankful that their ship was stationary at the time of the teleportation, but Orion had always disliked how the … Read more
“Theocydes, Kesistatir, I need advice.” Normally, the three Adogtic Voidborns met at the Shield and Stave pub, but today, Vekeus had requested they go a bit further south, to the Chrysanthum Baths, a small Life Goddess resting area, not quite a Life Oasis, but still technically a spa and oasis of some sort. As a … Read more
Levik was surprised to see Psiksi at work. Yes, Levik was training to be a gladiator, but he was aware that the next few days consisted of a lot of holidays for a few races, and that today was the first day of Macromera, a Rethan and Skyan holiday celebrating the days getting longer. Most … Read more
Levik grinned from ear to fluffy ear as he collapsed on the sofa of his new apartment. Sure, it was a tiny little place, but Levik didn’t care. The land lord wanted a pittance for it, since they believed the place to be cursed, but they didn’t ask any questions, and the location was good. … Read more
Aster had just headed back to the Hall of the Gods, located at the fortress at the centre of the universe, to pick up his shield that he’d accidentally left behind. The lights weren’t on, everyone had left a few hours ago, but Aster had border patrol duties on Sunday, and he wanted to grab … Read more
Theocydes mused to himself as he increased the speed of his ship while he travelled through the rough patch between the Ventra Expanse and the Kinigian Wilderness. Normally, he’d stop by the denser parts of the Athata Rift, but that was better used for west to east travel, not south to north. Theocydes was heading … Read more
Tromos stared at the sheet of paper before him, somewhat shocked by what he had just been told. Standing before him were the twelve members of the Great Dessaron Council, who were basically the second in command after the Raptor. If she wasn’t around, they’d take charge of the Great Arenas. And since the Raptor … Read more
“Retvik, dear, I need you, right now.” Retvik had just gotten back home from work alongside his friends. As always, he had plodded upstairs to take his armour off. But he didn’t expect to find Kuta lying on his bed. Even more unusually, Kuta was wearing almost nothing, just a loin cloth. “Hello, Kuta!” Retvik … Read more
Rethais did their best not to growl as they slammed the door to their private office shut, then made their way to a simple desk. The High General normally did meetings in the Grand Hall of the Kentron, a colossal room with a massive glass wall that overlooked the city of Phos. But this was … Read more
Vekeus hesitated as he parked his ship outside the Shield and Stave, the cosy little Decay Lord-run pub which not only served Adogtic Voidborns, but was quite nice to stay at as well. As he’d flown back from the Athata Rift, Vekeus had been rather undecided. He’d been flip-flopping between his physical looks – that … Read more
Kuta glanced around the recovery room. They were tired, but they refused to sleep. They had just had surgery while conscious, and while everything had gone incredibly smoothly, Kuta felt weird. Like something was wrong. “How are you feeling, Kuta?” Kuta’s main doctor, Fetiir, was standing in the doorway. They seemed slightly blurry. “Uneasy and … Read more
“You, uh, called me earlier than expected.” Most Rethan doctors were either really young or really old. Or, rather, they just looked like it. Doctor Fetiir, a somewhat tall but skinny pale blue-plated Rethan, had been Kuta’s main doctor for pretty much all of Kuta’s adult life, for nearly seventy years, but they had treated … Read more
“BOO!” Retvik nearly jumped out of bed. The whole house had been completely silent, what with Kayel and Nyssi staying at their own homes and Tenuk spending the night at Talok’s place, so Kuta suddenly leaping out from the shadow in the corner and throwing themselves into Retvik’s bed did catch him unaware. “Kuta! You … Read more
“Ugh, are they still at it?” “Unfortunately, yes.” Vokulunaax grunted as he perched on the colossal window ledge, watching the universe drift by. Vexer had just finished his guard shift and had come by to rant and complain, like he always did. There were six beings on this small, floating fortress, and they only ever … Read more
“The High General does not wish to see you.” The glistening, gold and red-armoured General stared at this short, white-plated Rethan standing in front of them, blocking their way. “Move, child.” “No. The High General does not wish to see you. You ought to leave.” Revan Rethianos was not used to being told no. The … Read more
