Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Psehon felt weirdly uneasy as he made his way to the third level of the Shimmering Blade, the colossal, armoured vessel that acted as the headquarters for the Phantai Decay Lord sect. The third level was mostly off limits to the majority of the Phantai and consisted of 14 rooms. Alongside an armoury and twelve … Read more
“WHAT ELSE ARE YOU HIDING FROM ME?” Retvik hardly moved as Voidblade wrapped his claws around his throat. He simply grunted and tutted, waiting for Voidblade to calm down. When that didn’t happen, Retvik snapped his fingers and waited some more. After a couple of seconds, Voidblade abruptly let go of Retvik and emptied his … Read more
Elkay couldn’t help but grunt as consciousness returned to him. Thankfully, he wasn’t dead, but he also seemed to be strapped to a table. Again, that wasn’t too weird, after all, back at home, most Rethans were strapped to operating tables because they moved a lot while they were unconscious. No, the problem was that … Read more
“They want to kill you. Have fun killing them.” The telepathic command had been simple enough, and Elksia was definitely making the most of things. She was currently in the middle of doing two things at once: stabbing a bunch of invading Voidborns and stopping said invading Voidborns from stabbing her friends. A lot of … Read more
“You two have some explaining to do.” Retvik took a long, deep breath and sighed. The Thantir had been with the Phantai for about two weeks now, and their leader, Voidblade, had constantly been questioning both Retvik and Litvir about pretty much everything. While, somewhat thankfully, Voidblade had not been questioning their Decaylings, they had … Read more
Litvir would have jumped in surprise as the colossal, golden sword embedded itself in the table in front of him, but he had heard Soulblade coming from a mile away. Not just via the psionic aura that the elder Decay Lord generated, but also because of his loud, plodding footsteps, footsteps that all the Beh’evok … Read more
The tiny shuttle pulled into the main hanger of the Shimmering Blade, the Phantai’s main ship and headquarters, parking somewhat awkwardly as far away from the exit as possible. Shuttles coming in and out were pretty common on the Shimmering Blade, as lower level Phantai would head out to do various missions and patrol the … Read more
“So, how are you all doing-” Litvir paused mid-sentence, surveying his small team of Decaylings, who were all sitting on the benches in front of him. However, Litvir’s attention was drawn to Elkay, the largest of the Decaylings and the one Decayling that was the same species as Litvir was. “Uh, Elkay, you appear to … Read more
Elksia found it weird how silent everyone was as they marched through the Voidborn vessel, slicing through gold and diamond grunts that were desperately trying to kill them. The Voidborn had fired as soon as they’d seen the small Phantai ship, but the Phantai had retaliated by cleanly blowing up the Voidborn ship’s bridge, freezing … Read more
“So, like you faced the Ancient Collector and didn’t die, Shattershield?” Akah was beginning to regret his codename. Being a Decayling, he technically wasn’t allowed to pick his own name, it had to be done by a Decay Lord. But the problem was that, when it came to giving him a codename, he was on … Read more
Galyn shifted his weight nervously, not enjoying how he was currently on display in a glass cage, heavy chains securing him to the ground and an awkward golden choke collar around his neck, stopping him from moving too much. Right now, the emotion that was bothering him the most was uncertainty. It had been a … Read more
It had taken a few hours, but with the help of Koh and Leh, the seven Decaylings had all been moved to some proper sleeping quarters, consisting of actual beds, as well as some food. However, no one had seen Teekay, and only one Decay Lord had offered any meaningful information, simply stating that “the … Read more
Teekay blinked as consciousness returned to him. The last time he was awake, he was inside a glass cell alongside his fellow Decaylings, Eksi, Tahvra and his partner Elkay. Phovos and Elksia had their own individual cells, and Akah and Tenuk were awkwardly sharing a cell opposite them, neither of them looking comfortable after a … Read more
It had been a while since Litvir felt so small. As the colossal door swung open and the three Decay Lords stepped into a gold-plated office, Litvir couldn’t help but be reminded of his early days as a Decayling, lost, confused and mostly just surprised that he was even alive and moving. No one had … Read more
“I will be blunt, I was under the impression that the Thantir were dead…” The Deathven-aligned vessel Shimmering Blade Seven Two (Decay Lord Vessel Code ΑΣΗΜΕΝΙΟΣΞΗΦΟΣ-072) rarely left the centre of Phantai territories, what with it being the main hub of the Phantai, but the fact that a Decay Lord sect that was believed to … Read more
