Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“I feel like they are testing us.” “Why?” “They are keeping us together.” “Because we are triplets.” “No, to see who is the worst and who is the best. And the worst is clearly me.” “Relkir, just because you are not physically strong, does not mean you are less than us! After all, I am … Read more
Gath grunted to themselves as they finished a call with one of their external captains. While seven of their captains worked alongside Gath, three of them had separate jobs, and had been inducted into the 1000th Legion while continuing their duties elsewhere on neutral territories. Veliir was originally from the 500th Legion, who specialized in … Read more
Gath watched Relkir literally skip towards them in a cheerful and flamboyant way. Relkir had finished work about an hour ago, and, after a quick trip home to clean themselves up and take off their governmental red and black armour, they had requested to meet Gath in a small park down the road from Gath’s … Read more
It had taken way too long, but Gath had finally convinced Retvik to bugger off for a bit so they could have some privacy. Gath didn’t like having to pull rank, but Retvik was getting clingy-defensive over their injured sibling, even though Relkir was doing a lot better now. And since both Rethais and Kuta … Read more
Despite the fact that Relkir had been caught in the crossfire of an assassination attempt on their sibling, the High General, they were feeling pretty good. Not only had their beloved poten-partner Gath been by Relkir’s side the entire time, but they also got to spend extra time with their sibling Retvik. Kuta was there … Read more
Really, Gath was in the way. But no one dared attempt to move the colossal Rethan from Relkir’s side. Doing so would be to risk harming themselves. In fact, Gath had been involuntarily sedated in a bid to stop them from going Defensive Stance at the sight of their poor, beloved but injured poten-partner, and … Read more
“Did you get any information?” Kuta repeatedly bashed their head against the table. They had been doing so for a good five minutes. Anything to distract them from the dizziness, the migraine, the bubbling anger in the back of their mind, screaming that Kuta wasn’t safe and needed to lash out. Eventually, they calmed down … Read more
“This is pretty.” Limilian Lake was a large large freshwater lake, but its centre was very narrow, to the point that it looked like a rough figure-eight from above. Still, even at the narrow point, the distance between the two shores was about half a kilometre, and the Limilian Lake provided a huge amount to … Read more
Everything had been very, very pleasant so far, but right now, the High General wanted to spend some time with their siblings, and it turned out that the Lake had a jacuzzi, something Gath had always wanted to try, so that was what Gath, Lysar and Kuta were all doing right now, sitting in a … Read more
“You seem to get pretty exhausted when you shadowjump, Little Bitey!” Kayel mocked as he peered from the doorway, as he heard a loud thump in Retvik’s otherwise empty bedroom. Kuta grunted as they picked themselves up off the floor. For a change, Kuta wasn’t wearing their standard scary Below Twenty armour. Instead, they were … Read more
Captain Ignair nearly jumped out of their skin as they opened the door and was greeted by the General of the Retha of all beings. Ignair was a very, very young soldier-caste Rethan who used to have bright red plating, but the plating on their arms was charred black, and they had speckled black and … Read more
“Hello, Kuta, are you busy?” Kuta blinked as Taliv poked them in the side. The other seven 11th Legion Rethans in the room all fell silent. “Kyr Kuta, the High General is speaking to you…” Taliv whispered. “Oh… OH!” Kuta immediately got up and straightened themselves out. “Kyr Rethais, uh, why are you here, in … Read more
Rethais never enjoyed reading through paperwork in the throne room. It wasn’t a particularly satisfying or comfortable working area. Sure, it worked fine for meetings and discussions, but for quieter work, it was useless. And while, yes, Rethais was the High General, they could change these things, there was never really time to do so, … Read more
Relkir panicked for a moment as they woke up from one of the best sleeps they’d ever had. They weren’t in their own bed. They were sharing with someone else. Or, well, they were? It was a very, very big bed, Relkir couldn’t reach either edge if they stretched their arms out as far as … Read more
Gath tapped on the table, lost in thought, minding their own business. They had admittedly not had a good day. A day filled with medical appointments. None of them good. It turned out, being shot 30 times while on an adrenaline-fuelled rampage protecting the innocent as a young adult was not good for your health … Read more
