Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Gath never thought they would have ever said this, but they had ordered way too much pizza. Normally Relkir made pizza, kneading their own dough, making their own sauce and picking out toppings, but the last few days, in the evenings, Gath and Relkir were celebrating with their nearly-adopted kid Litvir, so they got takeaway … Read more
“Good evening, General!” Relkir looked up from their work. It was pretty late, but the Legion of Advisors had needed to assist the Legion of External Affairs in a teleconference call with the Athren leadership, namely the Distant Moon Singers, who dealt with foreign affairs. However, standing at their desk right now was Rethais, the … Read more
It was late. Far later than usual. The sun had gone down a couple of hours ago, and the area had emptied out, people going back home before the harsh winds picked up. Gath though, they never really minded the windy chills. Reminded them of better and worse times. A past that Gath was finally … Read more
Relkir breathed a quick sigh of relief as the last of the 99th Legion left their massive office. Most of the desks, all with a privacy wall and a potted plant, present were for the 99th Legion’s researchers, but there were three meeting tables by the entrance, and a closed off office for Relkir in … Read more
Something very strange was going on. Very, very strange. Relkir had been in another meeting with General Ritlir, who had been asking a lot of different questions. All of a sudden, both Ritlir and Relkir got messages from the Master of Generals, instructing them to both go up to the Grand Hall immediately. Relkir led … Read more
The last few days, Gath hadn’t been around. According to one of the Below Twenties, Gath was busy doing a “morale tour”, where they visited the local Junior Stratoi and spoke to the younglings before they started their exams. Lately, due to Gath’s illnesses, they had been sending 1000th Legion captains to speak in Gath’s … Read more
“Good day, General Vaksavar.” “Good day, Rethais. What are you doing here today? You should have other obligations.” Rethais never enjoyed speaking to the Master of Generals. Yes, Rethais out-ranked them, what with being the leader of the entirety of the Rethavok, but Vaksavar carried a lot of weight and was more powerful than Rethais … Read more
Relkir couldn’t deny that they were briefly scared as something pulled itself through the shadow underneath their desk, but as they realized who it was, they did quickly calm down. “Hello, Kyr Elkay…” Relkir got up from their desk so the dark being could get up, then stood to one side and greeted the God … Read more
Now that Relkir was definitely, permanently in a relationship with Gath, they were spending more and more time just living at Gath’s place. Sure, Relkir was a Captain of the 47th Legion, with their own nice place and all that, but Relkir’s home was tiny, and it only really fit Relkir. That was why, these … Read more
Litvir shivered nervously in their seat as they sat in front of Captain Mathenon, one of the many, many Captains of the 901st Legion, representing both teachers and school administrators. Mathenon was the headmaster of Litvir’s school, and had called Litvir to their office at the end of the day after… something had happened. By … Read more
“Alright, good meeting, the rest of you may leave. But Lysar, Ritlir, Tessar and… you, Relkai, I want to speak to the four of you, here, in private.” “Is… is something wrong?” Relkai asked. “No, no. I actually want advice.” “Is that why Relkir is not here?” Tessar grunted. Relkai Skiaovoros was the rather young … Read more
“How does a marriage work?” Relkir glanced up from the script they were working on, not really sure how Litvir, the young Rethan member of the Twelve Anew, had managed to get in. Sure, they had knocked, and Relkir had said they could come in, but the door hadn’t opened, Litvir had just appeared. “If … Read more
Relkir took a long, deep breath as they finished up the last few bits of work, jotted a few things down, then picked up an oddly shaped box that had been sitting under their desk all day. The box was a little too big to fit in their satchel, so Relkir carried it under their … Read more
“Hello, little one!” Despite technically only being 2 months old, Litvir was somewhat taller than average. And because they were skinny and adolescent, physically about 15 years old, it was possible that Litvir would grow taller. However, most beings, Litvir included, felt absolutely tiny when confronted with Gath, the Keeper, the General of the Legion … Read more
Relkir normally hated the large mansion that the High General traditionally lived in, and avoided going there at all costs, but since it was Macromera, Relkir had somewhat been forced to stay for a couple of days. Macromera, at least for Rethans, was always a family get-together. Three days of festivities. Gifts and a light … Read more
