Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“Are you alright, dear?” “Ugh…” The God of Death was lying in Kuta’s bed, his head buried in pillows, his body obscured by sheets and blankets. Both he and Kuta had been rather busy over the last few days, and, weirdly for a deity, the Thantophor had been ill. “Arkay?” At the mention of his … Read more
“So who let you two freaks wander around here alone?” Elkay glanced to his left to see who was interrupting, then rolled his eyes. “In all honesty, I fit in better around here than you do. I can at least make myself look like a standard Phantai soldier.” “Yes but then you would spend several … Read more
“Banikanspeak, the language of the Banikans, was created by the God of Death and gifted to the fireborn tribes when the Goddesses of Life and Space deemed the Banikans unworthy of speech. It is created from the Theoglossa, the language of the Gods, but written and spoken in reverse, a mockery of the Hellenic language.” … Read more
“Ugh… where am I?” Litvir sat up straight and tried to move his arm to rub his eyes and neck, only to find that his right arm was stiff and his left was wrapped up in some sort of medical device that was both drip-feeding him medicine and fluids and keeping a constant check on … Read more
“I want to leave the Phantai.” Lightblade looked down at the small Decay Lord sitting on the other side of his desk. The last time Lightblade had heard someone say that to him, they had taken one of Lightblade’s best soldiers and left to form their own sect. Most of the Phantai were simple, happy … Read more
Kuta tutted to themselves as they wandered around their temporary new home. Most Rethans lived in what were normally dubbed half-houses. Not because they lacked anything, but because they tended to have one and a half floors, with the second floor only covering half the area, generally above the kitchen and storage area, making the … Read more
No matter what Retvik did, he couldn’t cool himself down. He’d turned off the flames that rippled up his body, he’d spent a good fifteen minutes standing in the shower, he’d even stuck his head (and partially melted) the freezer in a bid to lower his internal body temperature, but no, Retvik was still sweating. … Read more
It was nice being back home. Sure, Retvik needed to go shopping, but he could finally take off his armour and just wander around in a stomach wrap and loin cloth. In fact, his housemates had already gone and done something similar. As soon as they’d stepped back inside Retvik’s house, Nyssi had removed almost … Read more
Kohra and Levik both felt somewhat uneasy as they waited in the narrow hallway. Sure, they had ten bodyguards with them, two of whom were Rethavok supplied by the Great Arenas, but they were also sharing a hallway with the mighty Lightbearer, a living legend that even the two Rethan guards feared. However, the two … Read more
Retvik felt hot, hotter than normal. This wasn’t good. Having the ability to manipulate things like heat, fire and plasma, Retvik rarely felt anything other than perfectly warm, as he would alter his internal body temperature to never feel too hot or cold. Right now though, whenever Retvik would cool himself down, about fifteen minutes … Read more
Kindyna tapped her claws together as she sat impatiently in her chair, waiting for the other two guests to arrive. Yes, she was fifteen minutes early, but Kindyna was the current Vassil of the Ksithans, their Queen and Representative, she HAD to be early, she had appearances to keep. More annoyingly though, aside from an … Read more
Akah almost screamed as a long, noodly arm dragged him into the observatory as he walked past. But as Akah settled down and realised what was going on, he realised that someone randomly grabbing him was a good thing, because he was going to the wrong observatory. “Oh, hello! Are you all alright?” Akah glanced … Read more
Arkay had been hanging around the throne room, hiding in the shadows in the ceiling, for about an hour now. Despite being an utterly ancient being, he was never really sure how to approach beings of power. Banikans were easy to approach because they respected him, but most other creatures? It was always a toss … Read more
Elksia found herself leaping back and forth, repeating herself, going around in circles. But no matter what she did, the Phantai in front of her was still lying there, unmoving. No, not unmoving. Dead. Gone. Another attempt. Elksia tried to alter the time threads around the battle. But no, every single time thread led to … Read more
“Fuck no, no way, no fucking way, no no no!” Tenuk had wished he’d not checked his messages before the flight. The flight had been delayed by half an hour, so everyone was kinda stuck on board, waiting for, well, something. Things weren’t too bad, since Tenuk and his three friends were in their own … Read more
