Suffering’s End

The mood on Savepoint was tense, for a myriad of reasons. The appearance of eight new Decaylings, one of whom was a Time Drake, another being a Voidborn, had been startling enough, but the old Allbirther suddenly arriving at the Thantir’s base, cradling a capsule of black goo that she claimed was the Thantophor had … Read more

Inky Puddle

Things crash-landing into the parking lot at Savepoint were annoyingly common, but the moment that the strange, serpentine Time Drake hit the ground, dropping a strange, crystalline canister, things became rather… chaotic. The Thantir instantly identified the Time Drake not as a Time Drake, but as a Life Goddess. Sini, the old Allbirther, had collapsed … Read more

Synaisthyn Silence

Everyone was quiet, not really sure what to say, somewhat shell-shocked. The eight of them had been split up somewhat, while they were being checked over by a group of beings that called themselves Decay Lords. Thassalin had been mostly fine, he had regained all his Time Drake powers and was mostly just reorientating himself … Read more

The Most Important Delivery

“Hello, Theocydes, what a pleasant surprise!” Litvir smiled as he approached the strange, silver Voidborn. “Hello, Litvir, are you all busy?” “No, no, just shutting down main operations for the day. It has actually been quieter than normal. In our line of work, that is almost always a good thing!” Theocydes grunted. “Oh, so you’ve … Read more

Time Drake Crash

Theocydes mused to himself as he increased the speed of his ship while he travelled through the rough patch between the Ventra Expanse and the Kinigian Wilderness. Normally, he’d stop by the denser parts of the Athata Rift, but that was better used for west to east travel, not south to north. Theocydes was heading … Read more

Messages of Void Weirdness

Mimicblade: Hello, Retvik, are you busy? Flamebearer: Not at all. Just locking up for the day. How are you? Mimicblade: Honestly? Glad. And confused as fuck. Flamebearer: Oh. How so? Mimicblade: Alright, you know that UAO Corruption that attacked the Pentathax? Flamebearer: The one that nearly killed us? Mimicblade: Yeah. Mimicblade: So, we detected a … Read more

Formerly Corrupted Containment

Elkay groaned to himself as he turned over inside the glass observation and quarantine cell he as sleeping in. Just outside the cell, his husband was arguing with someone, probably one of Kal, but Elkay didn’t particularly care right now. “I NEED to comfort him! I need to help him! He needs my embrace, so … Read more

Feeder Consumed

They were not falling. They should have fallen already. The Ancient Feeder had rained down His droplets across the small, floating island, the place harbouring those that went against the Great Unending Ancient One’s Will, that denied The Natural Laws, but those spores were being both burnt and washed away. The Ancient Feeder had spawned … Read more

Incinerated Messages

“More fire?” “More fire.” Saahro rolled his eyes, then opened his jaws wide, spewing flames and plasma across the wreckage of a ship that had crashed into the small, forested area of Savepoint. Really, they should have been putting the fire out, but the ship was barely a ship anyway. In fact, it was half … Read more

Strains of the Past

“See, told you not all Voidborns are bad!” Vikalos smiled as he joined Galyn and Itaviir in the open-air canteen. Occasionally, their schedules would collide, and the three of them would finish their duties all at the same time. “Vikalos, my eternal friend, I already know not all Voidborns are bad!” Itaviir tutted, watching as … Read more

A Purge Of His Own

Vekeus wasn’t sure what to expect as he entered the Athata Rift and approached Savepoint, the headquarters of the Thantir. Most Decay Lord sects generally worked from a colossal flagship, but Savepoint was a floating island with four smallish ships (larger than Vekeus’s own Celestial Endflame, a typical Voidborn cruiser, but painted in metallic red … Read more

Infected Explosive Voidborn

“By the Light! Why does all the awful stuff happen when the three of us are on shift together?” Litvir asked as he picked both himself and Retvik up off the floor. Standing before them was Elkay, with his wings wide open, seemingly shielding the elder Rethans from… something. The three of them had been … Read more

Thoughts of Selves

“Huh. Didn’t know Retvik was into bondage…” Everyone present reeled back in shock at Eksi’s abrupt and seemingly random statement. Phovos dropped her bowl of food, Elksia blinked in surprise and Elkay started spluttering, having inhaled some of his drink. Once Elkay had coughed up some of the diet lemonade that had gone down the … Read more

Mimicky Bastards 2

Unender: Hello, Arkay, are you around? Deathbringer is now online. Deathbringer: Oh, heya Elkay! What’s up? Unender: Nothing much. I enjoyed our talk the other, uh, day and wanted to talk again. Deathbringer: Is something wrong? Unender: No, no. It is just that time of, uh, day. Unender: I am still not used to the … Read more

Back at Savepoint

“Thank the Light, you are back!” Retvik didn’t expect Litvir to immediately jump at him and hug him tightly, but that was exactly what Litvir did. Most old-universe Rethans wouldn’t dare so openly hug each other or even so blatantly show brighter emotions, but Litvir had always been an odd, overly emotional Rethan, so this … Read more
