Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“When you said “flying lessons”, I thought we were going to learn how to fly a ship or something!” Tanos exclaimed as he and his fellow Decaylings all lined up in front of Elkay and Saahro. “Flying a ship?” Ret laughed hesitantly. “Kuta does not even have a driving license.” “To be fair, most Rethans … Read more
There was a very large ship hovering above Savepoint, as large as the floating island itself. That would have been more concerning if the ship didn’t have the words “The Pentathax Three” blasted on every side. “Do you know these guys?” Arkay asked as a smaller ship disconnected from beneath the larger ship and slowly … Read more
“So, what do you guys think?” Nyssi, Tenuk and Retvik all glanced at Kayel. The four of them were sitting on the small beach on the lake at Savepoint, keeping to themselves. They’d spent the morning reading through various text books and asking the two Decay Lords looking after them lots of questions. Now, they … Read more
Sini didn’t think her little brother was much of a hugger, but Arkay had been hugging Sini for a little too long now. “Thank you so much, Sini. Thank you.” Finally, Arkay let go, and Sini patted her little brother on the head. “You don’t need to thank me. I was just keeping my promise. … Read more
“Mama… uh… Kyr Elkay, can you help me with something please?” Elkay growled to himself as he finished placing a row of books on a shelf. One of the many parts of the deal that had given Elkay divinity involved building a massive, universally accessible library, available for all races to visit. Elkay had admittedly … Read more
Apparently it was night time. But there was no sun, no moon, and the handful of twinkles in the sky that Phovoula could see from her tiny bedroom window weren’t stars, they were the glows of distant universes. Sure, occasionally strange, pink, nebula-like clouds would blow by, thanks to the void winds of the Athata … Read more
“Heya, big guy, congrats on your first few wins!” Abius grunted, then glanced up to see who was talking to them. Well, not up, more to the side. Abius was a gigantic Rethan and a formidable gladiator, but they had only recently started fighting people instead of animals. “Hello, Timik. Hello, Psiksi.” Psiksi and Timik, … Read more
“Hey, Yisini, are you busy, can we talk?” Sini wasn’t particularly busy, she was just inspecting the ship that the Thantir just gave her. It wasn’t their ship, really, it was one of Kinisis’s old ships, but it turned out that some of her smaller Divine Guardians had backup ships in case the original ship, … Read more
The party was calming down, and most folks were heading off to bed. But Galyn had been waiting a long time to catch Arkay on his own, and, finally, the old, battered death god had wandered off, sitting on the pier and staring off at the dark skies. Really, Galyn was dreading this conversation, but … 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
“Kyr Litvir, can I speak to you, privately, please?” Litvir sat up and turned to who was talking to him. Admittedly, Litvir was ever so slightly tipsy, but he was on his own right now, keeping an eye on things while everyone else partied. “You do not need to call me ‘kyr’, deary. Is something … Read more
Retvik smiled weakly to himself as he stood in front of the entirety of the Thantir. Lined up before him were eight new Decaylings, waiting to be given their codenames and inducted into the sect somewhat officially. Gathered to Retvik’s right were the older members of the Thantir: the three Tattered Navigators and all six … Read more
In hindsight, Theocydes probably should have checked his messages sooner, because, just as his ship landed at Savepoint, after doing a vital task for the Thantir, he’d noticed that he’d received a message from Litvir, telling him to return immediately and that he wasn’t safe. And Litvir had sent that message BEFORE Theocydes had arrived … Read more
Relkir didn’t mean to frown, but they did as a timer went off, reminding them to take their medication. Sure, they were finally out of hospital, and had been staying at Gath’s parents’ place for the last few days, and things overall were pretty good, but Relkir was concerned that they were now in the … Read more
“So what does being a Decay Lord entail these days?” Thassalin asked as he fiddled around with his physical form, ignoring the fact that Nyssi was giving him looks. Now the old Time Drake was free from the confines of a universe he had little power in, Thassalin’s strength had returned in its entirety. And … Read more
