Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“Well, that is convenient!” Gath smiled as they and Relkir lumbered down the path, dragging their luggage behind them. They had just gotten off the bus that had taken them from the space port to the collection of holiday villas they were due to be staying at. “In fact, this has all been rather convenient … Read more
Unender: Hello, Arkay, are you around? Deathbringer is now online. Deathbringer: Oh, heya Elkay! What’s up? Unender: Nothing much. I enjoyed our talk the other, uh, day and wanted to talk again. Deathbringer: Is something wrong? Unender: No, no. It is just that time of, uh, day. Unender: I am still not used to the … Read more
Gath grunted as they lugged their carry-on bag and Relkir’s carry-on bag up the mobile stairs and onto the shuttle, to where their seats were. Their main suitcases were already in the hold, all they needed to do was climb aboard themselves. Thankfully, the flight was going to be somewhat quiet, and there had only … 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
Relkir grinned as they rolled onto their side and inspected Gath, who was lying on their back, fiddling with a communicator. They had been staying at Gath’s place for the last couple of days, as Relkir had been given some more forced time off work. Their boss, the High General (and one of Relkir’s triplet … 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
“Thank the Light, you are back!” Retvik didn’t expect Litvir to immediately jump at him and hug him tightly, but that was exactly what Litvir did. Most old-universe Rethans wouldn’t dare so openly hug each other or even so blatantly show brighter emotions, but Litvir had always been an odd, overly emotional Rethan, so this … Read more
“Well, aside from the sudden SCE attack, this has all been wonderful!” Pentaflame beamed as he and some of his troops helped everyone pack. Currently everyone was gathered in (the remains of) the main meeting hall, where the Doom Drums had been giving out parting gifts, as well as going over a few last bits … Read more
“What in the name of the damned Light are you doing here?” Important Rethans making awkward doctors appointments later in the day when there were less people around wasn’t that uncommon, but Kuta was genuinely surprised at how aggressively Relkir had just hissed at them. In fact, Relkir’s anger was so loud and obvious that … Read more
Deathbringer: Hey, Elkay, how are you doing? Unender: Oh, hello, Arkadin. Unender: Sorry, uh, are you Arkadin or Arkay? I am not sure. Deathbringer: Whoever signed me up as a Decay Lord put my name down as Arkidetelos for some fucking reason, but I prefer being called Arkay. Unender: Understandable. Does mean we have too … Read more
“Hey, guys, I think he’s waking up!” Arkay rubbed his eyes as he rolled over and picked himself up. Standing over him were his team of friends, plus an extra friendly face. “So, which of them did you save this time?” Sini asked as she helped Arkay to his feet. “You were gone for a … Read more
“I can see why this place was abandoned!” Tahnaiious growled as he helped Mavriir to his feet, while a blast of flame pushed back a tentacle of Corruption. “This shit is just smashing through the walls like they’re made of paper!” “Yes, should have done a structural integrity test or a quick history lesson or … Read more
“That is a lot of snacks, paper and dice.” “Well, we have a lot to go over!” Retvik glanced around the room, feeling ever so slightly nervous. The last time Arkay was here, the Panelix (the goddess Retvik used to worship) had invaded, teleported his friends across the universe, beaten Arkay up, ruined the coffee … Read more
“So, what’s next?” Pentaflame glanced across the room. This meeting between the Pentathax and the local sect leaders had been going great so far. Sure, there were very few sect leaders present, but all of them had been rather friendly and courteous to each other. And most of them were already Corruption Purgers or military … Read more
“I feel like they are testing us.” “Why?” “They are keeping us together.” “Because we are triplets.” “No, to see who is the worst and who is the best. And the worst is clearly me.” “Relkir, just because you are not physically strong, does not mean you are less than us! After all, I am … Read more
