Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“Been a while since we met up for tea…” “Yeah…” Kohra sat down at the table where Arkadin was sitting. The Thantophor was playing around with a bunch of paints, trying to decide what colour to put on his nails. “I wonder why that is?” “Well…” Kohra answered awkwardly. “We were kinda being your prison … Read more
For the first time in days, someone answered the door. Kohra almost jumped as it creaked open, revealing a tired, grumpy Thantophor. “Oh. Hello.” “Hi, Arkadin, you alright?” Kohra smiled. He held up a bag of various things, which clanged against each other as he shook it. “I brought food and drinks.” “Why are you … Read more
Hey, Kohra here. Things are still weird. I still have Death Itself as a room mate. I suppose there are far worse room mates around though. The last time I had a room mate, he stole pretty much all the candy from my secret stash. Alright, that room mate was my brother Levik and the … Read more
“You… bought me shopping and cleaned up the apartment?” Kohra gently closed the door behind him, but left it unlocked. In the kitchen, the being known as the Thantophor, the God of Death, was awkwardly grilling slices of bacon. “If I am to live here, I need to contribute.” The Thantophor turned off the stove … Read more
Hey. Me again. I can’t sleep. How can I sleep? Death Itself has been standing by the window, staring outside, almost motionless for about three hours now. I know the Thantophor is in the other room and he’s not directly bothering me or anything but… it’s Death. Standing there. I still can’t get over the … Read more
Hey. Hey diary. I know I said I wouldn’t do this shit again after dad found that diary of all my weird dreams, but… this all has to be a dream. It’s all so fucked up. I’m gonna start from the beginning. I’m Kohra. Kohra Tou Avran. I’m a Kronospast, a pretty wealthy and formerly … Read more
Kohra was genuinely surprised that the door opened up and revealed something vaguely familiar. For weeks, he had been trying to reach the realm that the Thantophor called home, only to find nothing but emptiness. Or occasionally a field of flowers. It wasn’t the fact that Kohra wanted to die or something, it was just … Read more
Kohra hadn’t expected to see any lights on. He expected to come back to this little house and it all be empty. But the lights were on and someone was home. Being polite, Kohra walked up to the front door and delicately knocked on it. “One moment.” Some form of movement was heard. A set … Read more
“Has to be both…” The Lord of Death inspected the two objects in front of him. One was a bag of finely ground white crystals, the other was a golden bronze mush. “White and brown sugar?” Kohra asked. “Yep. White and brown.” “Why?” Arkadin looked at the bags again. “Why not?” “I was always told … Read more
The wind was howling, the grass was shaking and the trees were blowing around, but the skies were perfectly clear, filled with endless sparkling stars. The stars were the only thing lighting the path towards Death’s little cottage home. “It’s not normally this dark…” Kohra muttered, shifting a heavy bag across his shoulders. “This is … Read more
Kohra sat quietly at the table, tapping his feet together. In front of him was a placemat, a knife and fork and a glass of water. At the other end of the table was an empty seat, its owner prancing around in the kitchen behind them. “Are you sure that you just want water to … Read more
Kohra shifted his weight and sneaked forward, hiding behind rocks and trees as he made his way up to Arkadin’s home. For some reason, the teleporting key Kohra had used hadn’t actually teleported him to the house on the hill, but a good 100m away. Luckily, Kohra had shapeshifted into a taller being and this … Read more
“AAAAAHHHHHHHHIIIEEEEEEEE!” The Kronospast’s screams echoed across the small, rocky world, covered in long, winding rivers. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” There wasn’t anything particularly scary going on. In fact, the landscape was rather pretty. Sure, most of the grass was brown and dead and none of the trees had leaves on them, but the rivers were all very pretty, … Read more
