Another Broken Secret

Overlord pulled out a small clock and inspected it closely. With a sigh, he then put the clock away, then turned to face the three intruders. Yet again, he had been interrupted during a meeting with his Upper Decay Lords. But not by the same few faces as last time this had happened. “Hello, Pentaflame. … Read more

Trial Betrayed

“Why is everything not moving?” Kayel asked as he staggered to his feet. “Don’t talk. Listen.” Thassalin was already upright, but he had turned back into his old pink Thraki form and was standing, wings apart, between the Decaylings and the colossal shadowy being before them. The other Decaylings weren’t all quite upright yet, but … Read more

Void Skull

Retvik shook his aching hands as he sat down on the floating platform. Kayel quickly sat down as well, very much out of breath. It had taken about two hours to melt a tunnel through what everyone thought was a sphere but was in fact the stomach of a colossal gold and silver Voidborn. While … Read more

Metal Walls

“Hm, we seem to have created a large wall…” All things considered, the eight Decaylings were doing fine. They were a little tired, but Nyssi making bets on who could kill the most Voidborns was keeping their spirits somewhat high. However, the corpses were starting to pile up, and it was getting harder and harder … Read more

Delayed Start

“Stop the Source, or Perish.” The eight Decaylings all huddled round a small, holographic message that had appeared in the ground. On it was the basis of their trial. Right now, the lot of them were in a strange, metallic landscape. At first glance, the location seemed like a ruined temple, with broken pillars and … Read more

An Hour Away

Most of the team were asleep currently. Ret and Kuta were lying in the corner in some sleeping bags, and, at some point, Tenuk and Talok joined them. Kayel was nearby, completely buried underneath a pile of cushions with his sleeping bag on top of him. Phovoula was pacing up and down, not really sure … Read more

Pre-Challenge Preparations

“How did this even get here?” Arkay asked as he and Litvir followed Retvik. Retvik was carrying a familiar box. Well, familiar to Retvik and Litvir, but somewhat new for Arkay. “I believe that Deathven has some very powerful abilities. He seems to be able to teleport anyone anywhere. And that probably applies to cardboard … Read more

Adding New Branches

“I think they are trying to throw off my branches…” No one had really said anything for a while. While most of the Decaylings were asleep, both Nyssi and Thassalin had decided to join Ret and Kuta on the beach. The two Rethans had been somewhat camping outside, spending their time eating s’mores, and Nyssi … Read more

Chat With A Different Psiksi

“Heya, how you doing?” Kayel was busy doing a bit of training on his own. The training mostly involved trying to hit targets with his elemental powers. Throwing balls of fire seemed pretty easy, but Kayel was currently experimenting with little ice daggers. “Oh, hey Psiksi!” Kayel turned to face who was talking to him. … Read more

Similar Problems Elsewhere

Pentathax ships landing at Savepoint were pretty common. While they could normally fix up minor corruptions without too much hassle, anything that potentially needed more delicate surgery or was at risk of amputation was sent to the Thantir to be purified. Today though, a small 2-seater ship had just touched down, and the resident Psions … Read more

Cuteness and a Pinch of Envy

While both Retvik and Litvir were the leaders of the Thantir, that didn’t stop either of them doing more mundane jobs, and they were happy to get their hands dirty if they needed to. Currently, Retvik was on guard duty, because he wanted to give Galyn and Itaviir a bit of a break and also … Read more

Decayling Insecurities and Plans

“Alright! Team meeting!” Nyssi had dragged everyone into the room that the higher up folks were using as a classroom. Gathered around were all eight Decaylings, some of them more anxious than others. “What do you need, Nyssi?” Kuta immediately asked, watching as Kayel and Ret pushed tables together, making a vaguely circular shape. “I … Read more

More Reassurances

“You’re struggling.” Phovoula tried to sigh to herself, but couldn’t actually exhale. Or inhale. Currently, Phovoula was standing in front of a mirror in the public bathroom and shower room, staring at her reflection. “I am, yes.” With an odd click, Phovoula turned to see who was talking to her. It was Phovos, Phovoula’s old-universe … Read more

Light Blades

“Hm, I think your light powers aren’t quite the same as mine…” Psiksi had been struggling a bit, trying to teach Gentle, Submissive Retvik on how to turn light into weapons. So far though, Ret had only really made a few laser beams and some motes of light. Ret also had some pretty fine control … Read more

Voidborn Worries

Despite there being no sun at Savepoint, Nyssi often enjoyed lying on the beach, watching the waves or the sky. Occasionally, she’d be joined by Kayel, Tenuk or Ret, but right now, the three of them were busy. Ret was learning how to make cool light swords, the same way Psiksi did, Tenuk was practising … Read more
