“We could have had this meeting in your office,” Raum Kolta said, apologizing for the clutter. His office was small for a man of his status. Truthfully he much preferred it over some grandiose one, though with his workload the place often became filled with files and paperwork awaiting his...

“Sometimes I worry about my son,” Sherwin admitted. He slapped at a mosquito on his arm, missing. “I didn’t exactly leave him a peaceful realm. Though I did try.” He felt himself judging all his actions, all his choices. He could feel himself falling into the despair that comes with self-doubt...

“He poisoned himself?” The question was one of incredulous disbelief. And then repeated. “He poisoned himself?” This time angry. “We’re trying to figure out who gave it to him, and when.” “Was he not fucking searched?” “He was searched before transfer and again at the courthouse.” Alwur...

Richard had retreated through the town, gathering villagers with him as he went. He hadn’t seen Braeggo, but knew the Esplandian could take care of himself. Eventually he led the group to the town hall. It was the most secure building, made of stone, with iron bars protecting the windows and...

Coarin Surface, House Drof-Antier The High Inquisitor entered the great hall. He was a thin and wiry man, his dark eyes darting from each corner of the hall, from each piece of art to each tapestry. From statues to columns, as if he could pierce out any hidden secrets at a glance. Hiram and...

There was no pomp as the old Prince was led into the court room. Murmurs and hushed conversations. No announcements of his titles and achievements. He was led by armed guards to stand before the judges, accompanied only by his lawyers. “State your name for the court,” spoke the lead judge. “I...

Admit Arcanstotska into the Pact? Nation: Arrandal Vote: < Yea >

The ship dropped out of warp then entered the starlanes on its approach to the planet. Thousands of ships passed to and from the hundreds of Star ports in orbit. But the ship didn’t make towards any of those, instead passing into a less crowded lane, one making for the green and blue planet...

The silent archway stood before them. Izine and the Guardian came to a stop in front of it. The doorway to the Tomb. She readied her pistol, watching the shadows around them. The Guardian turned on a bioblade and it’s green flickering blade pushed the shadows back ever so slightly. The Sekari...

"I say we move this discussion to a vote," said Jadzia.

Valoras Kor, The Grand Cathedral of the Piatha Blood cries for blood. The words of the god Marmas still rang true centuries after their transcendence at the hands of Tyran. Blood had been spilled in the imperium. Even now, months after the devastation of the Battle of Taer Atlos, the ripples of...

Izine didn’t have time to answer Eyleene’s accusatory question, as a fire fight broke out between their small party and advancing Rhodoni. If they had already moved into the city that meant they’d secured most of the Starbridges. The Sekari knights had used a fancy weapon that was tossed, and...

January 21, 2015 4:17pm Szepsfel, Arrandal They stopped near the ruins of a church. Its roof, and the arches that had once held it up, had collapsed long ago. Only stone walls and crumbling belfry sticking out of the deep snow remained. Valkiric called for a halt to rest the horses and the...

They gathered in the great plaza beneath the bows of the Drasul. A chill filled the morning. Izine could feel a growing static charge in the atmosphere, but the Sekari seemed not to notice. Perhaps they were not as attuned to the changing energies of the maelstrom. The strabridges stood off in...

Pendragost Izine had drunk too much ale, and could feel the alcohol going to her head, turning her giddy. So she subtly pushed her cup away and took a few deep breaths, hoping to regain her control. Now was not the time to let her guard down and let slip something better kept secret for now...

Map of Tellus Space OOC: I made this map with Andy’s permission. The planet names are vaguely Carthaginian. I did no other worldbuilding aside from planet locations and naming things.

Archaeus The monolithic structure of the long dead doom engine had towered high above the bramble thickets. It’s sides too steep for the thick growth to gain purchase. Though cracks and pits, formed from centuries of wear, had become home to numerous flowering plants. Draevin and his force...

The rays of the setting sun shone down on the street, turning the green summer leaves hues of silver and gold in the light. The days hustle and bustle had died down, leaving a stillness that permeated the air all along the riverfront. Older folks lounged about on park benches and outside cafes...

Bravondy, 2007 - Aszard Krynzik We ate the rats we caught among the old market stalls then seasoned them with rosemary and parsley we picked from the overgrown gardens of the Palat Roz and when night came we'd barricade ourselves in our houses sleep coming uneasily our dreams disturbed and then...

17 December, 1990 8:27 am Wyzkruzyz, Arrandal She considered herself a civilized person, but watching the life drain away from someone as she crushed the air out of their throats also left her with a giddy sensation of power. She squeezed firmly, and they fought to rip her hands away, their...

Braeggo slammed his shoulder against the door, cracking the jam as he burst through. Two villagers followed him in, and then he pushed the door back shut. A large armoire was pushed against the door. Something slammed into it, snarling and clawing at the wood. And then there was a terrible howl...

Helgadae Shaifur collapsed into the chair in front of the command consul, sighing in relief at being off his hooves. “All offline sections have been restored,” HEL informed him. “My repair bots should have everything up and running in a few weeks.” “I’m just glad we didn’t run into anymore...

Archaeus There were a dozen Skyrres waiting at the top of the tower, along with a number of Shyanar hunters and three Frondauri Guardians. Brydleif was busy chirping orders to her people, and the three Guardians were just standing off to the side giving the flying beasts sidelong glances. But...

“The Witangamot is demanding blood.” Irwin simply acknowledged the words. He was exhausted from the many sleepless nights of the last few weeks. But they’d won and soon his wife and daughter would be returning from Goyannes. That’s all he could think about. “They want Albrekt tried and hung.”...

OOC: Because of a lack of motivation and also RL stuff taking up our time, I and @Nogori have decided to just wrap this thread up so we can move on. This will be a massive overview post. The Sovereignty War November - December, 2020 The Sovereigntist forces under the leadership of the...

Frondauri Society The Frondauri hold to a spiritualistic way of life, one that balances oneness with nature against scientific discovery and exploration. They have a polytheistic religion, with their gods being personifications of the planets they have settled on. Frondauri organize themselves...

Taer Atlos From the small round viewport on the rear of the shuttle, Imersa watched the Virammar’s last moments. The fires from the overloading reactors blasting outwards, the hull twisted and broken, spinning away towards it’s end and its final resting place among the stars. She turned away...
