Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
The tents were all set up, a small fire had been lit and dinner had been eaten. While Nyssi and Retvik were currently lying in their tents, Tenuk was sitting on the beach, watching the waves lap across the sand. He’d been mostly sitting on his own, but he quickly noticed that someone was approaching, … Read more
The only way to get to the Floppy Isles was by boat. By a small boat. Like many of the smaller islands of Thalsa Two, the Floppy Isles were technically in a restricted zone, and visitors were only allowed to set foot on the islands if they had a permit or a guide with them. … Read more
“Are you sure you want to leave?” Pretty much everyone stared at Telin as he asked that question. No one answered it at first though, not until everyone had either rolled their eyes or sighed. “Yes, Telin, we want to leave…” Retvik grunted. “We have wanted to leave for a while, and now we can … Read more
The wind was quite harsh as Xeno Dessaron One disembarked from the small shuttle. Thalsa Two wasn’t a particularly popular place to go outside of two particular species, Vrekans wanting to go on holiday and Lanex who wanted somewhere new to explore. Because of this, the large islands were nothing more than Vrekan tourist traps, … Read more
“Hm…” Koh wandered around the large, floating island, going over a long check list, crossing things off. The tiny team of Decay Lords had been working hard over the last week or so, renovating the floating island and its desolate, looted buildings, turning everything into… something definitely habitable. The battered, shattered villa had been rebuilt … Read more
“Oh, I did not think you would just… instantly arrive…” Retvik smiled weakly as he picked Kuta up off the floor. As always, his cute little poten-partner had briefly knocked themselves out by shadowjumping to Retvik’s bedroom. But today, Kuta seemed far more tired than normal. They were almost delirious as Retvik placed them gently … Read more
“Is it just me, or is that a very, very large Thraki?” Psikay had been enjoying his current duties of looking after a sleeping death god, but right now, he was quite concerned. Sure, his team of K-Class soldiers, working alongside a team of Ksithans, a mini-tribe of Banikans and half a Rethan Legion hadn’t … Read more
Valorier watched with great intent as the heavily armoured Rethan very slowly swam back and forth across the pool. After each length, Retvik would noticeably slow down, getting more and more tired. Valorier kept on watching until he noticed that Retvik had stopped in the middle of the pool. After a few moments, Valorier spotted … Read more
Phovos wasn’t expecting anyone to knock at her door, not at what Phovos was assumed was late at night, but no, there was someone gently knocking on her door. But before Phovos unlocked the myriad of locks and sliders that kept her door bolted shut, she decided to peer through the little looking hole, to … Read more
Tenuk used to fear coming to the Raptor’s office, but these days, he wasn’t so bothered any more. Sure, the Raptor was an ancient Ksithan warlord who had taken over and united the Ksithan territories of Portalia, fought back the Clan Unmourned and now ran the largest gladiator arena in the universe, but Tenuk knew … Read more
Elkay wasn’t too surprised to find himself in a hospital bed with Litvir by his side. Despite the psionic mastermind having been quite a horrible person in the past, Litvir had consistently been kind and respectful to Elkay. Weirdly though, his partner Teekay wasn’t present, and the only other being around was the colossal Itaviir, … Read more
Elkay didn’t know if he was awake or not. The last thing Elkay could remember was having a fever and passing out. Right now though, he was sort of… lying down but also floating, in a very dark nothingness that was punctuated by the occasional coloured light. None of the lights were white, they were … Read more
Elkay yawned, then tutted, then grunted, then yawned again as he made his way back from the main canteen, where he’d gone to get some more pain killers from the vending machine there. The vast vacuum storm, the largest the Phantai had seen in a decade, had finally passed, and things were going back to … Read more
“Ey! Moonblade!” Moonblade didn’t expect people to cheer as he entered what used to be the private Thantir Decayling Observatory, but had been recently renamed the “Private Cool Room for Cool People Who Are Both Thantir and Cool”. Apart from a brief hello when the former Decaylings got back from their trial, Moonblade hadn’t really … Read more
“Kinda thought we’d have more than 34 Rethans here…” Psikay muttered as he watched Kuta dismiss their troops. The perky red and gold Skyavok had already sorted out the KD-Sub-Class and given everyone their jobs and schedules, and now he was just wandering around, watching the Rethans get to work. They immediately split into three … Read more
