The autocab turned into the mid-afternoon sunlight, flying for a half-moment as if straight toward Archavia’s moon, Selana. It was a breathtaking sight, but Aisell was in no mood to enjoy it. Her morning with Bedra and Degu had been fun – just what she’d needed, really. They had a nice meal, did some shopping, …

Chapter Twenty-Five: Castles in the Sand Titan: Nomad, Chapter by Dann
Luke sat on the window ledge and absorbed the pale white sunlight filtering through the glass windowpane. Lezah was working just off to the side, legs crossed slightly; her long form stretched out on the sofa that sat underneath the window. She was working away on a data pad, her long hair cascading about her …
Chapter Twenty-Four: Adapting, Learning, Fellowship
Lezah shifted her weight and crossed her arms over her chest. She had a conquering smile across her lips that suggested she was quite interested in hearing the next words that came out of Tizen’s lips. She looked for a moment to Luke, who at first seemed put-off, but upon seeing the wry smile on …
Chapter Twenty-Three: Getting to Know Her Titan: Nomad, Chapter by Dann
Lezah flipped through a number of archived documents on her data pad, but the one she was looking for had managed to elude her. “Why can’t I even find it? They’re supposed to be in order by date,” Lezah mumbled to herself as she sipped the contents of a steaming mug of brown liquid beside …
Chapter Twenty-Two: Parlay Titan: Nomad, Chapter by Dann
Lezah Maris stood hunched over the marble kitchen counter, her hand wrapped white knuckled around the hilt of a black kitchen knife. The sounds of the steel making contact with the wooden chopping board remarkably louder than it had any right to, was the first sign that she was not, as you would imagine, in …
Chapter Twenty-One: Boiling Point Titan: Nomad, Chapter by TinyDann
Thurfrit stepped onto the small wooden board just seconds after Quendra. He closed the rickety latch to the gate and stepped aside in order to allow Quendra to operate the pulley. Once she released the stopper, the elevator swung into action, taking them swiftly from the leaf- and twig-covered forest floor to the canopy of …
Chapter Twenty: Heartache and Tension Titan: Nomad, Chapter by Dann
Lezah carefully walked towards the old red barn, her steps slow and deliberate. Her curiosity had managed to get the better of her, and she was attempting to stalk her way over to where she had seen the shaar scratching at the wood of the barn. She narrowed her eyes as she drew near. Rodents …
Chapter Nineteen: Lezah Knows Best Titan: Nomad, Chapter by Dann
“Please Luke, I just wanna talk?” Aisell’s face took up the entire southern wall of the clear human terrarium. She had a hopeful but worn smile across her thin lips, her eyes told the tale of her exhaustion. She had spent a majority of the last three weeks attempting to make Luke’s life as comfortable …
Chapter Eighteen: Saying Goodbye Titan: Nomad, Chapter by OpenHighHat
Luke was woken by a deep rumbling noise. The world around him was vibrating quickly, almost to the point it hummed. He glanced around as the shaking subsided, expecting to see the familiar dank walls of Aisell’s small room but this room was different. It was brighter, cleaner and looked quite new. It was also …
Chapter Seventeen: The Last Day Titan: Nomad, Chapter by OpenHighHat
“EUUUUGGGHHHH!” Aisell strained as she pulled with all her strength on the stuck grate above Luke’s home. “Almost…there…” Aisell fell back on her ass sending a jolt through the floor that knocked Luke to his own rear end. “Wow that was in there tight!” She gasped. Luke hopped to his feet and ran to the …
