Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Green, slightly corrosive goo covered the walls and the room’s occupants as Galyn exploded back to life, pulling himself out of his healing cocoon. After taking a few moments to remember how to be alive and conscious, the elder Decay Lord scanned his surroundings, trying to work out where he was. “Did that happen last … Read more
“Hey, uh, General Retvik, is Relkir going to be alright?” Retvik grunted as he glanced down at Teekay, the almost silver-skinned Skyavok that had been hovering outside this bedroom door for a while now. “Yes, Relkir will be fine. But please do not call me ‘General’, I have no right to use that title.” Teekay … Read more
“Alright now, deep breaths.” Relkir did as he was told, taking long, drawn out breaths. But Relkir was currently not in reality. He was trapped within his own mind, lying in a field of fluffy grey clouds, staring up into a pitch black sky littered with small, red points of light. As to why Relkir … Read more
Litvir slammed the door to his personal quarters, then double-checked to make sure it was locked, before making his way to his desk, where his tablet was lying. As he opened the tablet up, a wave of dread washed over Litvir, wondering what horrible messages he’d find. However, as his eyes scanned the screen and … Read more
“Hey, Gah, when you accepted this job, did they mention that they were a Ceti Asteri?” The blue-painted Cleanser popped his head into the cockpit of the Thantir Two, where his sibling Koh was sitting, alongside the Decay Lord Retvik and two Decaylings, Tenuk and Tahvra, who had been making sure that they were going … Read more
“Is my darling Helkas going to be okay? Is he…” Syklas blinked her four bright purple eyes several times as she took a moment to inspect her surroundings. The last time she had asked for help from the tiny team of Decay Lords, they only had one ship, and it was pretty small. But this … Read more
“Fuck off, Ret-” Phovos spun around to see who was knocking on her door. With everything that had been going on lately, things on the Thantir Two had been rather busy, especially since they’d kinda picked up some new allies. While it had been lovely seeing Akah and Tahvra again, and Kal were a perfectly … Read more
“So, what now?” Galyn’s office was normally only ever used by Galyn, but since he was currently unconscious, the rest of the Thantir Decay Lords were using his office as a makeshift meeting room. Currently present were Retvik and Litvir, the two former Decaylings Galyn had helped raise to Lordhood, Lady of Decay Seimeni, a … Read more
“Welcome to the Nest.” The convoy of ships slowed down to a crawl as they exited the shimmering, golden portal, which snapped shut behind them. Docked on the top of the Thantir Two wasn’t just the sister ship Thantir Three, but the narrow, striped ship known as Shield Six, which belonged to the other half … Read more
Arkay had hoped to have been able to take a quick break, but as soon as he had managed to lie down in bed, he’d received a frantic message from Epani, begging him to deal with a Voidborn that was hovering just outside the northern entrance to the universe. So Arkay grabbed his favourite gunstaff … Read more
“I’m going to make you an offer. You give me back my fellow deities and I promise I’ll kill you quickly and cleanly.” Ahkron eyed the creature that was currently trying to hold him hostage. It was this universe’s death god, a pitiful excuse for a deity. However, the last time Ahkron had seen it, … Read more
Ahkron hovered above the universe’s external boundaries, watching it silently. This universe made little sense. There had once been a vast, life-filled universe here, millions of light-years across. What he was currently looking at was barely the size of a small galaxy, with no actual galaxies in it, just clusters of stars and planets. It … Read more
“Alright, while I am gone, Relkir is in charge.” There were a few tuts and grunts among the six Decaylings. Litvir didn’t like that. “Is it because he’s a Rethan like you?” Tenuk asked. “No, it is because, before he died and changed his name, Elkay here was in charge of 2 billion other beings … Read more
Ahkron smiled to himself as time faded away across this tiny little universe. It was barely a million years old, but its pantheon of deities had been hard at work making a myriad of different mortal species, each one mostly the same but with a different tail and head, and all sorts of religions and … Read more
Litvir rubbed his eyes as he entered the cockpit. Thankfully, the Thantir Two’s self-repair systems weren’t damaged, they’d only been taken offline, so the automated glass repairs had finished up quite quickly. Everything electrical though was still a bit iffy, and the heating was currently off, meaning the ship’s average temperature was about 263 Kelvin. … Read more
