Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Shield Six was an utterly ancient ship, which meant it needed somewhat regular maintenance. But now the Thantir was a large sect that worked in all things anti-Corruption, Tah finally had the time to go around and properly fix things up, doubly so since Shield Six didn’t really go out much any more. And today, … Read more
Phovos was tending to the trees around Savepoint, mostly just pruning dead branches and sweeping up dead leaves, moving them into piles to be made into fertiliser. She was quite happy with her work and duties, which had changed over time, and now Phovos was mostly in charge of making Savepoint look nice. Normally, Phovos … Read more
“So you want to get married?” Itaviir was clearly confused. He had been sitting in the canteen, beer in one hand, chunk of meat on a bone in the other, eating the standard Beh’en meal of meat and potatoes, when Vikalos had come along, sat down next to him and, oddly, not said anything. “I… … Read more
“Kyr Teekay, are you busy?” “I’ve literally got my head stuck in an engine, I’m a tad busy!” “Oh. Sorry.” Teekay tutted to himself, then pulled himself out of the engine. There was a piece of Voidborn stuck in it, and this seemed to be a really common occurrence that Teekay was normally rather good … Read more
“Hello, dear.” “Hello, Kuta.” Kuta had clearly finished work early. Their duties were normally rather stressful and regularly Kuta went over their normal shift time. Not because Kuta was overworked, but because they enjoyed their work, they felt like they were genuinely helping others and making sure people were free from the mind control and … Read more
“What is wrong, deary?” Ret was clearly in a bad mood, and although he had tried to hide his bad mood, it was also clear that someone had noticed. Of course people had noticed, half the Thantir had some form of telepathy. But Ret was confused by who had approached him. “Hello, Kyr Litvir… Why … Read more
“You alright, mate?” Tanos looked up from his communicator and his large ice cream. He’d been sitting on this bench at the Pink Paradise for about ten minutes, well aware that he’d be sitting there for a while. Luckily, Kayel was on hand to give him some company. “Yeah, I’m alright. Kinda sad that Elkay-En … Read more
Deathbringer: Hey, Elksia, how are things? Silverspear: Oh hi! Silverspear: I uh Silverspear: Things are alright. Silverspear: I declined leadership for the northern border lords. Silverspear: Way too much work. Silverspear: But also, it would have made me too powerful and taken me away from my sub-sect and my troops, so I wasn’t a fan. … Read more
“You seem happier!” “That is because I am happier!” Elkay-En was waiting for Tanos, Fengar and the Vohra to finish work, so he could play bricky toys with them. He had wanted to chill out with Akah as well, but Akah was currently out on a quick job, so Elkay-En was content to just chill … Read more
Kayel had heard those heavy footsteps coming, but he hadn’t expected them to come all the way over, and he definitely hadn’t expected a tap on the shoulder. “Oh, Ret! Kuta! Hiya, what’s up?” Kuta shrugged, but Ret was holding his communicator and showing it vaguely in Kayel’s direction. “We missed your birthday again.” “What… … Read more
Everything was black, but there were little candles floating around, providing a scant amount of light. But Elkay-En and Vekeus clearly didn’t care about the darkness, because they were preoccupied by the large, Voidborn-like being standing before them. “Welcome, little ones. I am Overlord, and I wish to discuss your trial and your future with … Read more
“That is… I love it!” Vekeus exclaimed. “That’s ingenious! But… I have questions. You… you don’t normally have that sort of power.” Elkay-En sighed. His plan was genuinely a good one, and hopefully without any risk. But it did involve Elkay-En doing things he had not really practised much before. A low growl echoed across … Read more
“Its Removal Will Release You. Remove The Beast And Be Free.” Vekeus and Elkay-En were confused. They were all armoured up and carrying an array of weapons. But there was nothing around them to fight. No monsters, nothing. They weren’t even sure where they were. Everything all around them was an annoying dull white, with … Read more
Vekeus glanced at the clock in the corner, then sighed. He should have been enjoying himself. He had a cute little Threan-type-like being standing behind him, giving him a great massage, and, sitting next to him was his half-brother, who Vekeus had thought was dead for years, happily petting someone who was shapeshifted into the … Read more
“It’s just occurred to me, I don’t even know how we get important mail here. We have an address, I assume, but how does stuff get here?” Arkay and Elkay-En both glanced at Vekeus, unsure how to respond to the sudden question. In Arkay’s arms was a large box, and he was leading Vekeus and … Read more
