Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Ahkron smiled to himself as time faded away across this tiny little universe. It was barely a million years old, but its pantheon of deities had been hard at work making a myriad of different mortal species, each one mostly the same but with a different tail and head, and all sorts of religions and … Read more
Rethais watched as their advisors all filed out from the grand hall, having just finished a long and arduous discussion. The Rethavok had recently discovered a vast amount of gold and platinum beneath one of their major cities, but old, forced treaties with other races had stopped them from taking advantage of these resources. Currently, … Read more
Litvir rubbed his eyes as he entered the cockpit. Thankfully, the Thantir Two’s self-repair systems weren’t damaged, they’d only been taken offline, so the automated glass repairs had finished up quite quickly. Everything electrical though was still a bit iffy, and the heating was currently off, meaning the ship’s average temperature was about 263 Kelvin. … Read more
“WE’RE UNDER ATTA-” Teekay’s telepathic message cut out as a storm of spears penetrated the hull of the Thantir Two, concentrated on the cockpit. This was followed by a crashing sound as a golden entity entered through the tattered hole where the cockpit’s main viewing pane used to be, a being that immediately turned to … Read more
“Wow… I can… see why you three enjoy that…” “What do you mean by ‘you three’?” “You, Sini and Epani.” “Oh.” It had taken a long time and a lot of alcohol to get this far. Arkay had wanted to claim his prize and Kairos had wanted to just get it all over with, but … Read more
It had taken way too long, but the Thantir Two had finally arrived to tow Shield Six to the only place in the sector that was open. They would have gone to the closer Pleasure Mall, but after a handful of baby universes all suddenly disappeared, as well as a few larger ones being destroyed, … Read more
“Hello, Decay Lord Galyn speaking, who is this? We normally do not get Voidborn messages like this.” Koh hadn’t expected a response. He was currently using communication lines he wasn’t familiar with, in a bid to call someone, anyone for help. Thankfully, with a little too much effort, he’d finally managed to get in touch … Read more
The being had attacked without warning, tearing a hole through the side of the ship Shield Six before immediately terminating the engines and leaving everyone drifting and trapped in the dark. Thankfully, Kal had strong infrared vision, allowing them to still see. That didn’t mean that they had a handle on the situation though. Whatever … Read more
“Litvir…” Litvir’s communicator buzzed, playing a short tone Eksi didn’t recognize. However, Litvir didn’t pick it up. He was currently busy giving Eksi a massage, as an apology for having bailed on him the other day. Their fellow Decay Lord and resident Life Goddess Seimeni had picked up some sort of transmission and completely freaked … Read more
Despite having been a gladiator for the entirety of his adult life, Retvik had never been to the fancy suites rented out to rich viewers. Sure, he had watched battles himself, but house fighters had their own viewing area, closer to ground level, and even then, it was mostly there for observation and educational reasons. … Read more
Retvik, Nyssi, Tenuk and Kayel all sat in their private training area, none of them really knowing how to feel. There were excited beings wandering around, hoping to catch members of the team Xeno Dessaron One and get interviews and selfies with them. Not just normal beings in the public areas, but other gladiators, challengers … Read more
Retvik took a shallow, almost unwanted breath, then regretted it, an unfamiliar taste in his mouth. One he hadn’t experienced in a long, long time. He was lying in a bed in the recovery bay for his team, a screen to his right, three beds to his left. As Retvik sat up, his eyes shifted … Read more
Occasionally, someone would ask for the Holy Four to all meet up in one location, but the choice of location today was rather odd. Sure, all four deities could call each other and arrange a group meeting, but normally the one to make the call would be Sini or Epani, and normally it would be … Read more
“Hello Tenuk, you wanted to…” Nyssi didn’t finish her sentence, watching in awe as something reptilian but not a Thraki soared around the small, closed off arena. This place was supposed to have been a small stadium for bloodless arena battles, mostly beast-catching stuff, and Nyssi had recently been in it during a stunt to … Read more
Kayel was exhausted. Ever since his team had accepted the challenge from Retha Squad One, the four of them had been training non-stop. Kayel in particular had been practising more efficient shadowjumping, something that was both physically and mentally draining. Doubly so if Kayel was shadowjumping while carrying someone else. But he’d made a lot … Read more
