Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“We should start the Dessaron again…” Retvik blinked several times, caught by surprise from Phovos’s statement. The pair had been relaxing and staring out into the darkness, after having had a nice little picnic. “Start… it again?” Retvik straightened himself out. “Like, properly? I do not follow.” Phovos rolled over, snuggling up slightly. “The void … Read more
Itaviir grunted as his communicator rang. Like pretty much every other Decay Lord in Deathven Sector Ypsilon, he had a splitting headache, achy limbs and a gurgling feeling in the space where his stomach would have normally been. After a moment, the communicator turned off, before starting to ring again a few seconds after. “Who … Read more
“This feels wrong.” Kinisis had spotted Galyn wandering around in the water garden, a place he almost never visited. Normally, Galyn spent his time divided, either doing office work or patrolling the outskirts of Kinisis’s Oasis, his appearance alone being enough to scare away potential intruders. “What feels wrong?” Kinisis asked. The Decay Lord turned … Read more
“Is it possible to become a Decay Lord?” Retvik blinked, caught off guard. This seemed to happen to him a lot lately. Mostly because he had made a new friend. Or, rather, finding an old friend from the past. Retvik and Phovos were now firm friends, and Retvik had been enjoying the Raptor’s presence a … Read more
“Hello.” Retvik grunted as he greeted Litvir. He had been sitting on a small bench next to a weird space water fountain, casually eating lunch on his own. Litvir took a moment to inspect the peaceful scene before continuing his sentence. “Are you busy?” Retvik glanced down at his meal, then placed it on the … Read more
“Hey, Retvik, do you like me?” Retvik turned his attention away from the starry sky and looked over to where Phovos was lying. The Flamebearer had been busy all day, working to keep the Kinigi Oasis safe and secure. Now that he was trying to relax, Phovos was grabbing his attention. “That is an unusual … Read more
“I should go and see Rethais…” Phovos glanced to her side, where her new best friend Retvik was standing. They had been relaxing on a balcony, looking out into the vast darkness. Even though they had been chatting on and off, Retvik’s statement had caught Phovos off guard. “Your brother?” “Sibling, brother, same thing, I … Read more
“Hello, are you busy right now?” Phovos glanced at her little communicator, then sighed. She had just finished her work and was too tired to really do anything. “No. Kinda. Dunno.” Another message appeared. “Are you well?” “No.” “Oh. Do you want to talk?” Phovos sighed some more, re-reading the messages that Retvik had sent … Read more
“I do not understand this place…” Kuta groaned to himself as he sat down on a bench. To his left, a small, peaceful stream and running down a perfectly curated miniature forest. To his right was Retvik, who was peacefully eating a bowl of mashed potatoes. It took a moment for Kuta to realize that … Read more
“Hey, Retvik, can I ask a question?” The Raptor and the Rethan glanced at each other as they stared out into the night sky. At the Kinigi Life Oasis, it was always technically night time, but many of the lights were dimmed during off-hours, making everything seem more peaceful. As for Phovos and Retvik, it … Read more
Retvik grunted as he woke up from his nap. He’d just finished a rather long shift doing guard duty for Kinisis’s Life Oasis and had hoped to take a small break before starting on his next job. However, even from his tiny little hotel room, he could hear confused voices all arguing with each other. … Read more
“Hey, uh, Retvik?” “Mhm?” “Can I ask you something?” Retvik shrugged, turning his attention away from the stars glimmering in the distance. After Tenuk and Elksia headed home for some fun, it was now just Retvik and Phovos left in the otherwise empty bar. “What is bothering you?” Retvik asked. “Is something wrong?” Phovos sighed … Read more
“Wow, this place is fancy!” Elksia was overflowing with joy as she and her oldest friends entered the Kinigi Life Oasis. Waiving them through at the entrance was a small, white Rethan with an icy look to them. Retvik gave a small nod to the little Rethan, then led Tenuk and Elksia deeper into the … Read more
“R-Retvik?” Tenuk stumbled over his words and thoughts as the flame-cloaked mountain of a Rethavok slowly approached. He knew who he was looking at, but was so surprised that Tenuk couldn’t think of anything to say. Thankfully, Elksia took the initiative and stampeded towards the fire god, with not even a hint of hesitation. “RETVIK … Read more
“What are you doing here in the dark?” Litvir asked as he pushed the door slightly ajar. Just out of view was Kuta, muttering to himself. As the door creaked slightly, Kuta looked up to see who was bothering him. “Oh, hi brother, come in if you want…” Kuta seemed somewhat upset. Litvir hesitated slightly, … Read more
