“I want a do-over.” The small polyhedron floated over an ancient, rusted-out bus, squinting as he scanned it for any trace of organic matter. “A deal’s a deal, Ghost.” The Warlock scraped his thumb across the side of the bus, trying to read the old writing covered by a layer of dust. The ghost turned […]

Frontier – Act01 Chapter02 – Telemica
Mars Elysium Planitia West of the Elysium Mons volcano The sinister powder brought to bare by a Martian sandstorm could be considered far more dangerous than any Cabal rocket round. Fine enough to get into everything and coarse enough to do a lot of damage once it’s there. When whipped about by super-high winds, the sand […]
Fronter – Chapter01 Act01 – Solas
Venus Aphrodite Terra, Ovda Regio The sound of distant active volcanoes seemed almost artificially muted so deep in the vast Venusian rainforest. The boom and rumble bounced and distorted off the thick trunks of the local flora so much so that to the uninitiated, it was as if the canopy itself was voicing its displeasure […]

The tall, blue-skinned woman took in and released a series of shaky breaths as she looked a little to her left, then a little to […]
Little Lights in the Darkness, Part Two
Reason. Natela tensed as the gun was drawn from its holster and then pointed directly at her. She’d stared down the barrel of a gun one or twice before, but back then it had always been with the assumption that its wielder would not fire unless she did something stupid. Now, that assumption was reversed. […]
Little Lights in the Darkness, Part One
Found. In the dark, nighttime shadows of The City, close to the outer wall, far from the skyscrapers and lights centered beneath The Traveler, something hastened across the dimly lit streets.
