Adventures in the Space Between Universes
“Weren’t you supposed to be going somewhere?” Letharus yawned and stretched out his arms, before considering Vick’s question. It was quite a relevant question, because Letharus’s stop at the Shield and Stave pub was supposed to be a quick one, and, somehow, a while later, Letharus was still there. “Not really.” Vick was already up … Read more
“Do you guys ever think there’s too many Skyavok here?” Teekay, Kaytee, Kayel and Psiksi all sat up and turned to Eksi. The five of them had just been lying on the beach by the lake, chilling out and looking at the pretty pink void winds that drifted across the permanently black sky. “What the … Read more
Decayling lesson time had ended about an hour ago. Thassalin had gone back to the guard tower with Elksia, Talok had rushed off to play on the ice slide Akah had made and the two Phovoses were currently brushing each others’ hair. Kuta didn’t seem to have anything to do and had retired to their … Read more
Letharus was a little tired. Throughout his journey, Letharus had stopped at the occasional pit stop, in order to stretch his legs and eat nice food. But most of the areas he had visited so far were Decay Lord-run territories. Lethaus was following safer void lanes, avoiding any territories connected to Voidborns or Corruption. In … Read more
“Huh, I’m surprised they just let me in…” Psiksi glanced at the old Thantophor, feeling somewhat confused as the two of them walked into a shopping mall. Sure, the mall was located inside a gigantic bubble that protected it from the endless void outside, but it was a genuinely nice place. “What do you mean … Read more
“So… wait… I’m… I’m free?” Psiksi was stuttering. He wasn’t sure if he was stuttering from fear or joy. Standing before him were two of the three leaders of the Thantir, the third was floating off the ground. Retvik was fine, Psiksi and Retvik knew each other closely before, as Tenuk put it, “things went … Read more
“This is the third time you have called, Shadowclaw…” Retvik grunted as he picked up the phone. “What do you want?” “We want a status update on Dawnbreaker.” “He is recovering and spending time with his brother. You are very insistent on getting Dawnbreaker to return to you as soon as possible.” “We need him … Read more
“Hellooooo, Souldrainer speaking, who is this?” While Retvik had always been the face of the Missing and the Thantir in general, it was normally Litvir who did more of the admin stuff. He also took most of the phone calls, because Arkay seemed weirdly funny with them. Sure, it meant Litvir using his somewhat silly … Read more
Terrorbane: Hello, Dawnbreaker. Your superior, Lightstalker, informed me that you are alive and well and requested I check in on you. When are you returning back to base? Dawnbreaker: Uh… Dawnbreaker: Sorry. I’m still kinda messed up by what happened. Terrorbane: Your ship was thrown into Patagenic, though Phantai territories, and you were hit by … Read more
“You are fully healed up, you are free to head back to the Alsyr whenever you are ready.” “Uh, thanks…” Psiksi looked up at Retvik, who had just removed the bandages on his hand and incinerated everything. He felt uneasy. As if he was both at home and away from home at the same time. … Read more
Psiksi was utterly overwhelmed. For at least two year-strings, he’d believed that his universe was destroyed and he was the only accidental survivor. But it turned out that his universe was remade and reborn into something new, and there were other beings who had survived. Various twists of fate had meant they’d all grouped up … Read more
At some point, Dawnbreaker had clearly passed out. The strange, tickly pain, the thumping voices in his head, the fear that he was being taken over, it had been to much for Dawnbreaker and he must have fallen unconscious. How did Dawnbreaker know that? Simple. He was no longer in his ship. Instead, he was … Read more
Someone somewhere down the line had lied. This was supposed to be a simple mission. Go to a location, destroy some Corruption, get out. Not a single person had told Dawnbreaker that he’d be facing a Voidborn covered in Corruption, who was lashing out and flailing wildly. That would have been fine if they were … Read more
The Kentarasa pentacluster was an unusual one. It was mostly empty, apart from the centre, which was filled with many tiny universes and the Life Goddesses that ran them. Outside the Sparkling Aria, Kentarasa had little in it, apart from a Darkspawn, a Voidborn birthing area, to the north, and two Decay Lord sects to … Read more
“Heya, Kuta.” Arkay didn’t look up as Kuta approached, then sat down on the pier next to him. They had just finished their Decayling studies, and since Kuta had done a few Decayling exams already, there was no need to redo them. At the same time, Kuta didn’t have much else to do, and was … Read more
