Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“I will be blunt, I do not understand this idea of celebrating days getting longer or shorter… But I did buy everything on the list, as directed!” For reasons only Kaytee and Arkay understood, Vikalos had been dressed up in some strange attire. He, Galyn and Itaviir had returned from their shopping trip a few … Read more
There was a very large ship hovering above Savepoint, as large as the floating island itself. That would have been more concerning if the ship didn’t have the words “The Pentathax Three” blasted on every side. “Do you know these guys?” Arkay asked as a smaller ship disconnected from beneath the larger ship and slowly … Read more
Sini didn’t think her little brother was much of a hugger, but Arkay had been hugging Sini for a little too long now. “Thank you so much, Sini. Thank you.” Finally, Arkay let go, and Sini patted her little brother on the head. “You don’t need to thank me. I was just keeping my promise. … Read more
Levik grinned from ear to fluffy ear as he collapsed on the sofa of his new apartment. Sure, it was a tiny little place, but Levik didn’t care. The land lord wanted a pittance for it, since they believed the place to be cursed, but they didn’t ask any questions, and the location was good. … Read more
“Is this real?” “I assume so, yes.” Arkay turned over inside his glass cell, where he was currently being quarantined. Thankfully, he was somewhat comfortable. He had a bed, a blanket, a pillow and some water. On the other side of the glass cell was Litvir, who had been watching over Arkay the entire time, … Read more
“So, uh, you’re not dead.” “Nope.” “And you’re a divine being now.” “Yep.” “You do realize we acted on your will instantly, right?” “Yep. Even though you ignored the two week waiting period.” “And you’re not bothered?” “Nope.” Panos looked Aesop up and down, rife with confusion. “Alright, what happened to you?” “Isn’t it obvious?” … Read more
The mood on Savepoint was tense, for a myriad of reasons. The appearance of eight new Decaylings, one of whom was a Time Drake, another being a Voidborn, had been startling enough, but the old Allbirther suddenly arriving at the Thantir’s base, cradling a capsule of black goo that she claimed was the Thantophor had … Read more
Things crash-landing into the parking lot at Savepoint were annoyingly common, but the moment that the strange, serpentine Time Drake hit the ground, dropping a strange, crystalline canister, things became rather… chaotic. The Thantir instantly identified the Time Drake not as a Time Drake, but as a Life Goddess. Sini, the old Allbirther, had collapsed … Read more
The Unending Ancient One should have been happy. He had done his duties, he had corrected a mistake and he had obtained a rare treasure. An Oull had offered itself to him, for him to study. Of course, he had started vivisecting it, to see what he could learn, but the Oull hadn’t been happy … Read more
Every so often, Panthon would stir from his eternal slumber, to adjust his position and check that he was still alive. Having essentially frozen himself in time to stop himself from possessed by both a Voidborn and a Corruption, Panthon did need to make sure that both dark influences hadn’t taken over him completely. Admittedly, … Read more
Sini was cold. Now she wasn’t. Now she was everything. Everywhere. But still in one place. The smashing of two particles. A cataclysm. Fusion then fission. From absolute zero to, for the tiniest amount of time, absolute hot. Things were already cooling down though. Fundamental forces were beginning to separate. Time, Space, Change and Decay … Read more
Everyone was quiet, not really sure what to say, somewhat shell-shocked. The eight of them had been split up somewhat, while they were being checked over by a group of beings that called themselves Decay Lords. Thassalin had been mostly fine, he had regained all his Time Drake powers and was mostly just reorientating himself … Read more
“So, you are… our new… representative…” Athu clearly was upset. Between his missing hand, the death of Imperator of the Endless Stars, the injuries of the other Imperators and the fact that, because everyone else had been down, he’d forced the otherwise antisocial Akah to deal with other races, the fact that a Lanex had … Read more
“Hello, Theocydes, what a pleasant surprise!” Litvir smiled as he approached the strange, silver Voidborn. “Hello, Litvir, are you all busy?” “No, no, just shutting down main operations for the day. It has actually been quieter than normal. In our line of work, that is almost always a good thing!” Theocydes grunted. “Oh, so you’ve … Read more
Theocydes mused to himself as he increased the speed of his ship while he travelled through the rough patch between the Ventra Expanse and the Kinigian Wilderness. Normally, he’d stop by the denser parts of the Athata Rift, but that was better used for west to east travel, not south to north. Theocydes was heading … Read more
