Half-Brothers, Whole Words

Retvik grunted to himself as he rubbed his head and nursed his drink. He was still reeling from what was in all honesty a very stupid fight. A fight in which he had been knocked out, ripped one of his nice golden fabric stomach wraps and had snapped his favourite sword in two. While also … Read more

Battle of Half-Brothers

“So, a few rules before you both tear into each other…” For reasons unknown, Gah had been chosen to be the referee for this weird random battle between two vaguely angry half-brothers. Retvik and Elkay were arguing over the title of “the Conqueror of the Rethianoi”, something to do with the weird bloodline that had … Read more

Old Bloodline Rivalries

It was rare that all three Rethan members of the Thantir sat together at the same time. Although Retvik and Litvir were technically in some sort of relationship, they tended to work separate hours and mostly did separate jobs. Retvik mostly focused on Corruption destruction with his fire powers, while Litvir specialized in the removal … Read more

Jumping A Gap

“Akah, can you help me with something?” Normally, either Tahvra or one of Kal would be the ones to ask Akah for assistance. For Litvir to have come out of his cave, asking Akah of all people for help, well, something had to be going on. And, really, Litvir’s personal quarters were a bit of … Read more

Empathic Thoughts

“So, what were you doing with Litvir and Eksi?” Vikalos was currently lounging in a deck chair on the tiny little beach by the miniature lake on the Thantir’s new floating island home. In his hand was what looked like a cocktail but was in fact just beer in a colourful glass, with a paper … Read more

A Little Hug

“What the actual fuck…” Arkay thought he was completely alone, trapped inside a place only he really knew about. The Mimic Headspace (Arkay hadn’t thought of a cooler name yet) was a strange, meta-physical place where Arkay’s mind astral-projected to whenever he was comatose or his body was badly injured and he needed to sleep … Read more

New Days at a New Nest

Koh felt very pleased and proud of himself as he stood in the doorway of the new reception and waiting area of the Thantir’s new base. They still hadn’t thought of a name for the place, and Koh had gone around earlier asking for suggestions, but all things considered, things were great right now. Each … Read more

Early Patient

The Thantir Two, despite the fact that it had two smaller ships docked on top of it, was slightly faster than Shield Six. Because of this, it had reached the small, floating island first, and it landed rather gracefully on the freshly resurfaced parking area outside the new Thantir base. There were a few ohs … Read more

Cheap Burger Joys

“So is this a new Thantir Tradition now?” Itaviir asked as Vikalos dragged him, Galyn, Retvik, Litvir, Kaytee and the Thantir Eight (as they were calling themselves) into the large, cheap, fast food burger restaurant at the back of the mall. “Yep.” “You… know that, four hours ago, I treated you and Galyn to a … Read more

Massive Toys

Dariak sighed as he glanced around the empty shop, waiting for someone to come in. Like almost all the retail staff at this mall, Dariak was technically a Divine Guardian, he worked for the Polizonta Life Goddesses that owned the mall and the shops and franchises inside it. The only beings around here that weren’t … Read more

Mall Rambles with Eksi

“You know what? I’ve been a Phantai Decay Lord for like six year-strings, and this is my first time going to this space mall…” Kaytee’s statement was met with a multitude of grunts as the Thantir filed through the mall entrance, each of them given a wristband as they did so. “This mall has been … Read more

Finally Leaving

“Are you sure you want to leave?” Pretty much everyone stared at Telin as he asked that question. No one answered it at first though, not until everyone had either rolled their eyes or sighed. “Yes, Telin, we want to leave…” Retvik grunted. “We have wanted to leave for a while, and now we can … Read more

Nearly Done

“Hm…” Koh wandered around the large, floating island, going over a long check list, crossing things off. The tiny team of Decay Lords had been working hard over the last week or so, renovating the floating island and its desolate, looted buildings, turning everything into… something definitely habitable. The battered, shattered villa had been rebuilt … Read more

Gentle Brushing 3

Phovos wasn’t expecting anyone to knock at her door, not at what Phovos was assumed was late at night, but no, there was someone gently knocking on her door. But before Phovos unlocked the myriad of locks and sliders that kept her door bolted shut, she decided to peer through the little looking hole, to … Read more
