Safety Stone

“Hey, Elksia…” “Oh, hey, sis! What’s up?” Elksia had been very excitable, but that excitement was clearly hiding some nerves. The news that Elksia wanted a kid and was making all the plans had quickly spread around Savepoint, and pretty much everyone had wished her good luck. Right now though, she was on her own, … Read more

Surprised Friends

“Wait, you want to have a baby?” Retvik seemed oddly shocked by what Elksia was saying to him. “Yeah, duh.” “An actual baby? Via an egg and everything?” “Yep.” “THAT is why the former Divine Guardian Vrekan is here?” “Indeed.” Vexer tutted and rolled his eyes. “I have a name.” “I apologise, I do not … Read more

Bare Guard Made Barer

The Dasoudi Arena wasn’t normally used for venator battles because it was very uneven and full of trees, but the trees were starting to get old and rotten, so it was decided to hold some large, destructive battles in order to celebrate the arena closing down so it could be rebuilt. Today’s battle featured a … Read more

Missed Point Blank

Veeyel had taken to being the All-Ksa pretty well, all things considered. He had never believed he’d be All-Ksa, and was admittedly only where he was because the previous All-Ksa had been found chopped in half and his body had been stolen. Sure, Elkay was somehow brought back to life by the Allmaker and turned … Read more

Talkative Shadowbeast

“So… you’re the same species as Kaytee and the Loopblades and Arkay?” Elkay-En had hoped that no one would have noticed him, but this group of visitors were rather curious, and two of them were of a familiar shape to Elkay-En. The much larger one (which was at the upper limits for a Standard-type Retha) … Read more

The Biggest Plan

“I don’t get why you four enjoy that shit…” Tenuk grunted as he, Elksia and the four half-Synaisthyns disembarked the Thantir Three. Normally, they would have returned to Savepoint and Elksia and Tenuk, two of the (slightly) older Thantir, wouldn’t have left base in the first place, but Elksia wanted to stretch her legs and … Read more

No Further Info

“How are you feeling, Litvir?” Aster asked as he floated outside the hospital window. “I am fine!” Litvir smiled. “I am a deity, of course I am fine!” “You were, according to Elkay, hit by a fifty calibre bullet.” Litvir shrugged. They were leaning on the window sill, looking for the ship they had briefly … Read more

Already Healed

As Rethavok were prone to going into a feral defensive rage over their threatened kids, as Rethan society began to grow, most Rethans started raising their kids in large nurseries, in order to better protect their babies and also not become adrenaline-fuelled monsters at the sight of their kids being accidentally hurt, especially as some … Read more

Tiny New Friends

Fengar had just finished his patrols, and had been relieved by Arkay, literally a member of a Hidden Trio, of all people. Apparently folks called him the Guardian of the Thantir, and he’d do a lot of guard duty whenever he was around. Fengar appreciated the break, he had admittedly been doing longer than normal … Read more

Welcoming Home

“Uh, Lord Vikalos?” Fengar still wasn’t really sure how to speak to his new bosses. The Phantai, Moonblade’s former sect, were very strict, but everyone just used their codenames so that strictness wasn’t too obvious. But Vikalos, codename Firestorm, was an oddly terrifying entity. Before Moonblade had met Vikalos in person, he had heard the … Read more

Surprise Anniversary Gifts

Elkay had been busy with his normal blood donations, and today, he had donated mor than usual, as Kal had requested an extra 100ml for testing purposes. That would have bothered Elkay, but when Leh said they wanted the samples to do experiments on preserving his blood, Elkay quickly agreed. But all that was over … Read more

Corrupted Explanations

Everything was black again, but at least this time, it was a familiar black, a void filled with delicate flickering and floating candles. And standing over the Missing was a familiar disgruntled face. “What did you do?” Litvir and Retvik didn’t have an answer. Arkay though immediately apologised. “I’m sorry. I acted on instinct. I … Read more

Protective Corruption

Everything was black. Black and squidgy. Oddly smooth. Warm though. Weirdly warm. Like a protective bubble of goo. One surrounding Retvik and Litvir. “Oh, thank the Light, you are awake!” Litvir seemed very sleepy, but he also seemed to have been trying to wake Retvik up for a while. “I do not know what is … Read more
