Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“Milk?” “Yes, milk.” “Really?” “Apparently.” Arkay had wanted to get out of the sector as fast as possible. As soon as Retvik and Litvir were done in the local hospital, they’d sped off, and Arkay had headed towards the nearest Deathven Sector. He didn’t want to specifically go to the Sector, Arkay wasn’t even sure … Read more
Rather oddly, the Glowing Point medical facility was run by and made for Divine Guardians. Places run by Divine Guardians were somewhat unusual, mostly because they were normally busy looking after Life Goddesses. This hospital seemed to be run by a collection of rather small, scaly creatures with four eyes but the patients were of … Read more
“Miisa! Hi! Hi hi hi!” Miisa felt very anxious standing outside a cafe called Twenty Below. They were wearing nice armour, holding several forms and a small visitors’ card twisted from a lanyard around Miisa’s neck. Approaching them was Litvir, a literal deity, but also literally a very small child, despite looking like a tall, … Read more
“Ow, ow ow ow! Get it off me!” Litvir flailed as something white and horrible crawled up his arm, a hideous, overly viscous liquid that made Litvir’s skin feel cold and itchy. Arkay tried washing the gunk off with water, but when that didn’t work, Retvik used a very brief and intense flame to burn … Read more

“Bloody darkness, you and Nyssi haven’t been right since you got back.” Ret wasn’t sure why he was suddenly surrounded by Skyans. He had just finished his guard shift and was waiting for Kuta to finish up, when Kayel sat down next to him. But also Psiksi, Kaytee and Eksi all sat down next to … Read more
“You’re a genius, Sini.” “Oh, little brother, I know!” The opening of Sini’s Oasis had gone insanely well, to the point that she had actual customers passing through and using the facilities, and those customers weren’t just the handful of folks she’d invited. It turned out, a combination of pretty pink and lilac lights mixed … Read more
Something beeped. Relkir’s eyes flicked open. They yawned, stretched, then rolled over to one side, to the small table by the side of the bed. Relkir’s communicator was the source of the beep. Getting beeps in the middle of the night wasn’t that uncommon, Relkir was an important Rethan with a vital job, but it … Read more
“I thought Arkay and Big Retvik were coming too…” Nyssi tutted to herself as she and Ret wandered around the nice oasis. “Apparently they are just running late?” Ret offered an explanation. “They are doing strange things out there, as far as we have been told.” “Oh, probably.” Sini’s Oasis, which weirdly didn’t have an … Read more
“Come on now, little ones, not all of you can go to Life Goddess Sini’s opening event!” Galyn crossed his arms in annoyance as he, Itaviir and Vikalos went through some quick announcements. Since they had taken over the Thantir once more, they would routinely gather everyone up and give them their schedules and any … Read more
Arkay, Retvik and Litvir were all taking a break, sitting on a bench outside a void kiosk run by fish in mechanical fish tank suits, all eating ice cream. The ice cream wasn’t anything special. Apparently it was vanilla flavour, but the quality of the ice cream suggested it had never actually seen real vanilla, … Read more
“They know I can just restart the ship, right?” The Deathly Soulflame was quiet currently. The engines and lights were all switched off as the ship had been hit by an EMP to briefly disable it. A ship of similar size had come out of nowhere and immediately fired the EMP at it, with the … Read more
“I am sorry for burning you, Arkay.” “Retvik, I’ve told you twenty times already, it’s fine!” Arkay had been hiding away in the ceiling observatory. It was really just a small room with a glass ceiling, with barely enough room for Arkay to stand, let alone Litvir or Retvik, but it was a climate-controlled room … Read more
Somewhere down the line, things had gone south. It turned out, the Voidborn that the Missing were supposed to be meeting was way more aggressive than they’d expected. And a lot larger. Like most Voidborns, this one, going by the name of Antikathartison, had summoned a metal platform and had been standing on it, waiting … Read more
“Hello, little ones!” Vikalos was waiting for his partners to finish their duties, so, to pass the time, he had decided to join the four little half-Synaisthyns, who were chilling out in the canteen. “Heya, Vikalos!” Kayel beamed. “What’s up?” “Nothing much. What are you four up to?” Nyssi shrugged. “We’re not doing much either. … Read more
