Corrupted Salesman

Arkay was supposed to have been meeting the other deities for a meeting about mortal matters, but Epani had sent Arkay yet another panicked message about yet another entity appearing at the northern entrance to the universe and had demanded that he deal with it immediately. Considering the recent intruders they’d had lately, this was … Read more

A Confusing Reunion

Rethavok were not known for their hospitality, but they did occasionally travel, which meant they required hotels. However, in Palaestra, there was only one Rethan hotel, and it was especially bland, only really meant to serve as a place to either rest or meet other Rethans on business trips. Today though, the Short Stop Hotel … Read more

Fears of Retaliation

“Come in!” Retvik took a deep breath as he stepped inside the Raptor’s skull-lined office and sat down on the stool in front of her desk. Phovos seemed pretty pleased, but as she tried to figure out the expression that Retvik was pulling, she realized something wasn’t right. “Hello, Raptor. I have a request to … Read more

After A Hunt

“So, how you feeling now?” Kayel looked up at Nyssi, who was sitting opposite him. Between them was a flickering campfire with a grill running across it. Slices of Thragger flesh rested on the grill, slowly cooking away. “Kinda embarrassed, to be honest. Didn’t think the answer to my unfulfilled Phantasma bloodlust would be to … Read more

Sibling Advisor

Rethais watched as their advisors all filed out from the grand hall, having just finished a long and arduous discussion. The Rethavok had recently discovered a vast amount of gold and platinum beneath one of their major cities, but old, forced treaties with other races had stopped them from taking advantage of these resources. Currently, … Read more

Betting Debt Paid

“Wow… I can… see why you three enjoy that…” “What do you mean by ‘you three’?” “You, Sini and Epani.” “Oh.” It had taken a long time and a lot of alcohol to get this far. Arkay had wanted to claim his prize and Kairos had wanted to just get it all over with, but … Read more

Placing Bets

Occasionally, someone would ask for the Holy Four to all meet up in one location, but the choice of location today was rather odd. Sure, all four deities could call each other and arrange a group meeting, but normally the one to make the call would be Sini or Epani, and normally it would be … Read more

Temple of the Silent Blade

The Temple of the Silent Blade was one of the many small, unoccupied churches across the capital city of Phos, essentially a concrete box with a small wooden, never-locked door and a small shrine inside. While most Rethavok only lightly worshipped their matron deity, the Panelix, the current High General had allowed the construction of … Read more

Sobering Up

As consciousness returned to the Lord of Decay, the first thing he did was break out in a coughing fit. Not quite awake, Arkay desperately reached for the first container of liquid he could find and quickly swallowed it. Sure, the liquid turned out to be flat lemonade mixed with a bit too much vodka, … Read more

Races of the Phoviverse

There are twelve species in the Phoviverse. Each race is free to live and worship as they please, but they are all individually looked after by the four deities of the Phoviverse. Kaironian Species – Time-Blessed races of the Whenvern The races chosen by the Whenvern see themselves as superior than others, as they were … Read more

Interrupting Relaxation

Arkay tutted to himself as he went to the front door, fumbling with the key briefly. He knew exactly who it was, and had decided to take his sweet time, putting on an (actually clean for once) Skyan hoodie and some baggy trousers. After all, the Whenvern had all the time in the universe to … Read more
