Adventures in the Space Between Universes
Telecharm: Hm. Quiet chat. Telecharm: None of you have said much in a while. Telecharm: Well, apart from Shadowshock, but he’s still muted. Telecharm: Dunno if we’re still insulting the guy by calling him a virgin though. Telecharm: But yeah. Quiet chat. None of you have been online. Loopblade-1 is now online. Loopblade-1: Well, we’ve … Read more
“Mister Elkay, are you busy right now?” Elkay glanced over his shoulder as he packed up folders of paper and put them into a larger folder, with the label “Past Trials” written on it. He had just dismissed the Decaylings after a two hour long lesson running down a long list of Decay Lord Trials, … Read more
“One more exam?” “Yep.” “Just one?” “Yep.” “And that was it?” “Yep.” Lissandra tutted and rolled her eyes. “That was the longest and most boring exam ever though! No, wait, I take it back. That was the second longest and most boring exam ever after that stupid folded time exam!” Teekay shrugged. “Yeah, exams tend … Read more
“I don’t think anyone else noticed.” Elkay glanced down to his side. He’d been watching ships come and go as part of his guard duties, and one familiar ship had just touched down. “Oh, hello, Helkas!” Elkay smiled, happy to see a familiar face. Things had been busy today. A group of Pentathax had come … Read more
He was supposed to be dead. The God of Vengeance had fallen to the Crazed Lord of Time. And the deranged Time Drake had simply toyed with the young deity, forcing him to constantly relive the moment when he couldn’t save his family. After the 350th re-enactment though, when the Lord of Time had realised … Read more
The sand was pink, the grass was lilac and the sky was nonsensical, full of stars and nebulae. A rather standard day in Kinigi, the borders of existence, with the entire universe above it. But by Arkay’s feet was a hole. Not a particularly large hole, but one with a slight slope to its edges. … Read more
“Oh! Shiny!” Helkas inspected the thing he had just been given. “Do we all get one of these?” Teekay nodded. “We try to make sure that you’re not all like Litvir and put up with all sorts of stupidly old shit and refuse to upgrade. But also, speaking of Litvir, he, Retvik and Arkay just … Read more
Helkas was getting better at working out who was approaching, from the sound of their footsteps, the crunch of the sand and pebbles under their feet. But for some reason, Elkay was always hard to judge. It was as if his footsteps were always slightly different, or maybe he was even disguising his footsteps. Helkas … Read more
Helkas had been minding his own business, sitting on the edge of Savepoint, making little shiny pebbles for a small pond he was building, when the dark figure had attacked. Well, “attacked” was the wrong word. The being had drawn a blade and approached Helkas from behind, but before it could even consider being an … Read more
All was quiet across Savepoint. The celebrations were over, the guests had left and everything was going back to normal. But there was still some movement. Not everyone had gone to bed. Someone had sneaked out for a midnight snack, but they seemed unable to work out how to use the omnivending machines. Of course, … Read more
“I thought we said we were not accepting gifts?” Galyn asked as he went through a pile of gifts. Everyone had gone home now and things were going back to normal, but Retvik, Litvir and Arkay had insisted that the happily married couple have a few days off, to get over everything that had happened. … Read more
“Did you request my presence?” Elkay stepped cautiously as he made his way to the very edge of Savepoint. Waiting for him, sitting in that familiar deck chair, was Vikalos, sipping a beer. “I did, yes!” Vikalos beamed. For the first time in ages, Elkay noticed that Vikalos was wearing the same scarf. The one … Read more
“Hello, dear!” Elkay beamed as he spotted those familiar orange particles. “Did you have fun?” Teekay yawned, stretched himself out then threw himself into bed next to his wife. As he did so though, Elkay sat him up, wrapped an arm around him then placed something into Teekay’s hand. “Hi, babe… What’s this?” Elkay smiled. … Read more
Most of the Teekays were asleep right now, but some of them were still moving. Arcblade, now named Beh’en Teekay, had left, he had slept off his drunkeness and his hangover and returned to his duties on the Justar border, but all the other Teekays were still present. The only two currently awake were Silverbolt … Read more
Telin had been watching the unusual being for a while now. They had been mingling with the crowds, mostly with three different groups, going back and forth and enjoying themselves, but also being constantly given drinks. They had been briefly introduced earlier on, when the Great Blades had arrived at Savepoint, but the being in … Read more
