Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“So, let’s clear all this up, in simple Panglish so we all understand.” The circle of beings all nodded as Aesop wrote things down on the whiteboard. “First, we are listing what we are receiving from the Allbirther…” Aesop scribbled down some numbers, then glanced across the room. It was rather odd, having every being … Read more
“I cannot believe that we are all agreeing to this…” Rethais sighed. He and a handful of other leaders were putting themselves some food at the completely open and magically refilling canteen. While Kohra, the tiny Kronospast leader, was helping himself to way too much ice cream, Agapia and Ver, the Temthan Empress and Vrekan … Read more
“I wish I brought a lawyer or two with me…” Kayel muttered as he re-read a paragraph for the seventh time. His mutterings were met with much agreement from the heavily built Rethavok on one side, the beaked Vrekan on the other and the slender-bodied, robed Cassid sitting in front of him. “I AM a … Read more
A soft, floral scent filled the room as the colossal, serpentine entity appeared, surrounded by a haze of pink clouds and lilac sparkles. The Allbirther had arrived, with an awkward smile on her face. “My darlings!” Yisini beamed, surveying her surroundings and counting everyone up. “I am so, so sorry for the delay. Unfortunately Kinisis … Read more
Rethais’s buttocks briefly left the surface of his chair as the massive, armoured Banikan plonked herself down next to him. “Hello.” “Hello, High General.” Ct’Era wasn’t the leader of the Banikans. As a race, the colossal, horned, marsupial race were incredibly tribal and segregated, mostly in ways that other species didn’t really understand. But due … Read more
“Pssst.” Levik glanced up from the bowl of mushroom sludge he had been eating from. This whole hall had been designed with each individual in mind, from the shape of the chairs to the food on the table. However, this Vohran spread didn’t look luxurious at first glance. Compared to the other tables, coated in … Read more
“Great little Leaders, welcome to my abode, please, make yourselves at home!” Fifteen individuals of very varied sizes stood, dazed and confused, in the middle of the grand hall. All around them were vast luxuries, neatly laid out in sections related to how said luxuries were to be consumed. Light twinkled into the room from … Read more
“So, what do ya think?” Kairos glanced at Epani. Epani glanced at Kairos, then back to Yisini. Yisini stared at both her fellow gods, waiting for an answer. “You want to make life a paradise for everyone until you can find out how to make everyone immortal?” Kairos asked. “Like, everyone, everyone? Or just those … Read more
“The glowing lights are back.” Phovos grunted as she stepped outside, where Teekay was standing with a pair of binoculars. Due to their location at the bottom of the universe, technically hanging upside down, the view was quite unusual. They could see a vast distance south (at least south of the universe), but their view … Read more
Tenuk headed up the stairs towards the upper balcony. It wasn’t used much, mostly just as a nice vantage point, but he liked going there to just be on his own. However, as Tenuk reached the top of the stairs, he realised someone else was already there. “Oh, sorry Phovos…” Tenuk muttered, stepping back slightly. … Read more
“You’re late.” Elksia rolled her eyes. “By half a second.” “You’re not supposed to be late.” Elksia rolled her eyes some more. “There was a fricking black hole! I had to fix it! You’re talking a lot of shit, Kairos!” The Whenvern paused, staring at his student. Elksia had never spoken back to him before. … Read more
“Thank you for coming!” Revan beamed as he briefly hugged Relkay, then sat him down on the other side of the table. “I did not want to interrupt your busy schedule, but I really wanted to talk to you.” Relkay waved his hand dismissively, getting comfy in his rather deep seat. This small cafe was … Read more
“Oh, thank goodness! I am so happy to see you!” That wasn’t the reaction Yisini had expected as she entered the blood-red glass castle, slithering her way past a handful of guards. It seemed that Epani had immediately detected Yisini’s presence, and quickly popped into existence in the main hall. She looked a lot… different, … Read more
Lysar stared at the floor by her feet, trying to form words. Occasionally, she would stutter, mutter something then fall silent again. Rethais had attempted to put his arms around Lysar to comfort her, but every time he did so, she shook him off. A glass of water appeared on a tray next to Lysar, … Read more
“YOU AGREED TO IT?” Rethais was glad he ducked as a porcelain bowl flew past him and smashed against the kitchen counter. “I take it you are upset.” “YOU SAID WE WERE GOING TO LIVE A LIFE OF LUXURY AND YOU WOULD JUST BE AN AMBASSADOR! YOU SAID YOU WOULD NOT RETURN TO THAT CURSED … Read more
