The Thantir

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

“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

“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

“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

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

Elkay wasn’t too surprised to find himself in a hospital bed with Litvir by his side. Despite the psionic mastermind having been quite a horrible person in the past, Litvir had consistently been kind and respectful to Elkay. Weirdly though, his partner Teekay wasn’t present, and the only other being around was the colossal Itaviir, … Read more

Elkay yawned, then tutted, then grunted, then yawned again as he made his way back from the main canteen, where he’d gone to get some more pain killers from the vending machine there. The vast vacuum storm, the largest the Phantai had seen in a decade, had finally passed, and things were going back to … Read more

“Ey! Moonblade!” Moonblade didn’t expect people to cheer as he entered what used to be the private Thantir Decayling Observatory, but had been recently renamed the “Private Cool Room for Cool People Who Are Both Thantir and Cool”. Apart from a brief hello when the former Decaylings got back from their trial, Moonblade hadn’t really … Read more

Litvir wasn’t that surprised to see that parts of his shared personal quarters were on fire. He and Retvik had had two very different conversations between two very different people. Litvir had just gotten back from a nice chat with Tah, the leader of the tiny group of Decay Lords that the Thantir had adopted. … Read more

Elksia had been bouncing excitedly non-stop since she boarded Shield Six and the battered old ship had disappeared into the void. She’d been excited the whole time, because she’d accidentally discovered what Kal’s plans were, and when she told them, she offered to help and they all said yes. Which made her even more excited. … Read more

The only ship that had been leaving the Phantai’s base lately had been Shield Six. While the whole sector was still suffering the lingering effects of the strongest vacuum storm in a decade, the ancient, tattered ship was the only thing capable of travelling through the weaker edges of the storm without any real problems. … Read more

“Thanks for agreeing to come with us, Akah!” Leh clicked with excitement as the ship Shield Six began to slow down, approaching what looked like a dark, rocky mass ahead. “Normally we’d be doing this stuff in secret, but you and your four-finger-and-a-thumb hands and lean, upright, tail-less form are so, so helpful when it … Read more
