This boy really thought that he could just waltz in and make demands, what could he...
37. Justice Knowing that Rift 5 was that close to Earth, made Mark a bit nervous. Earth was his home and all that remained to defend the planet was the Earth Spaceport. Sure, it was a space-based version of an aircraft carrier, but it was simply a fighter base with pulse cannons, laser turrets and TRDs... it had no singularity drivers, which was the only w...
Bex Thresh, of the Singularity Principalities, knelt low and touched his snout to the obsidian floor of the Pulsar Castle of House Xosh's freehold. His palms spread and despite hardening his scales for the kick, the impact of the Bryaugh bruiser that stood to the left of him still felt like being hammered by a gravity-drill.

Dante Davis stepped out of his chair and stretched his legs. The athletic shorts he was wearing exposed the deep, dark brown color of his skin and the taut muscles just underneath, having been strained and fatigued by a rigorous workout regimen just a short time ago.

I felt something wet, sticky and jelly-like under my fingers. Unintentionally, and without any prior warning, dim lights appeared. There was barely enough illumination to enable me to see more than a few m...
The sickle moon shall fell theeIf the Mere's waters touch theeFor Shokushu will take thee The Mere seemed as old as time itself. Older than the town, older than the fields and forest, older still than the very hills themselves. When this world had yet to be formed, a desolate rock in a desolate corner of a desolate universe, perhaps the Mere was already the...
Juniper pressed her head to the bar's counter with the force of someone hoping to sink into it. "You know a good psychic?
