A Pleasant Meal

Gath nodded a thank you as a waiter placed a basket of bread and some menus on the table of five in front of him. He, his partner Talmin and his daughter Rett sat on one side of the table, while their new friends Kuta and Trismit sat opposite them. Rett immediately picked up a … Read more

Playground

“Yay park time park time!” Gath smiled as he let go of Rett’s hand, letting her run off to her favourite thing in the world, a swing. The swing set was nothing special, in fact it was actually a little bit run down. But Rett absolutely loved the fact that the swing was made from … Read more

Arena Redesign

“What is this? A gladiator arena for ants?” “It’s just a model.” Yisini laughed somewhat awkwardly as Kairos and Epani inspected the little model battle arena that she had just built. She had taken a lot of time to make sure that everything was perfect and, more importantly, to scale, so it could be built … Read more

Haunting Tears

Trismit sighed as he opened up his hand, letting the crushed remote controller fall through his fingers. This was the second time in two days that Trismit had destroyed something. “Is everything alright?’ Relkay called from upstairs. Trismit glanced at the bits of plastic that now littered the floor. “It’s fine…” “You do not sound … Read more

More Luck Than One Expects

“You are up late again, my dear. Are you well?” Rethais grunted as Lysar made her way over, carrying a plate of small, freshly cooked meatballs. The High General had been staring out towards the city for a while now, feeling rather conflicted about, well, lots of things. “Am I well? I cannot truly say…” … Read more

Friendly Get-Together

“I am still not used to you being so small…” Timik muttered as he and Kayen entered the cramped, white office. All over the place were tons of filing cabinets, all filled to the brim with documents and folders, but also somewhat organized. One corner though didn’t have filing cabinets, but instead had a small … Read more

A Sudden Reunion

Retvik grunted as he hauled large bags of coal from the storage facility at the back of the Kinigi Oasis, dragging them over to the main entrance where Kinisis was building a fancy campfire. The Allmaker had requested that Retvik help with a few tasks, and Retvik needed distractions, so he was happy to help. … Read more

A Political Slap

The sound of skin slapping skin echoed a little more awkwardly than it should have in the small office. Outside, on the street below, Rethans were mostly going about their business, heading home from work after a busy day. It had taken a little too long, but finally there was some normalcy in the Rethan … Read more

Honesty Below

“Kinisis, may I have a word with you, in private?” The Allmaker looked up from what she was doing. Considering the door was both squeaky and had a bell for when anyone entered, Kinisis wasn’t quite sure how Galyn got in. Then Kinisis remembered that Galyn was probably as old as she was, and doors … Read more

Impromptu Dinner

Rethais straightened himself up and quickly threw his shoulder armour and cape back on as the door to his office opened abruptly. The High General had requested an hour to himself while he read through various paperwork he had missed over the last few weeks, as well as some time to finish off the debriefing … Read more

Contract Signed

“What happened to signing things like civilized individuals?” Rethais glanced down at the table in front of him. On it were one large sheet of paper, 16 soft, cotton towels and 16 needles, hermetically sealed in plastic. “You would rather just use a pen to sign your name on this?” the purple, serpentine monster behind … Read more
