Sorcha looked out over the city from her second floor office of the small Titan compound on the colony. It was rather spartan, even by Sorcha’s usual standards. The walls were cold metal as they were throughout the entire compound. There was no money in the budget to even add a basic aesthetic layer; the …
Chapter 28: Arrival on Avalon Titan: Sovereign by Johnny Scribe
“Well ladies” Taron said as he angled his ship towards the massive gas giant Herakleos. “There it is: Avalon.” Myona pressed her hands against the viewport of the Elysium’s cockpit and looked down at the pretty green and blue ball of the terraformed moon. She felt a well of excitement rising in her chest at …
Chapter Twenty Two: Altered Perspective Titan: Hybrid by Openhighhat
Hab Lemescu waited patiently, watching the coverage of the riots on the viewscreen in the Floor Leader’s anteroom. Typical Imperial slant, going after the Federation for its provincialism. They were letting the Empire slip away, and tut-tutting the only people left willing to fight for it. Ah well, he was unsurprised. This was never going …
Chapter 18: Ultimatum Titan: Pursuit by Johnny Scribe
Ourellia shrunk back from the blazing look of anger that suddenly appeared on the tol-bot player’s face as she charged towards her. For a moment she wondered if this was a good idea at all. “Le-…Dibilique wait!” The man who had left the stadium with her called out, but Dibilique ignored him. Her eyes remained …
Chapter Five: It’s all about a good Poker Face Tales of Avalon: Training Day by Dann
“Everyone’s set up, separated into their platoon’s sir! First Royals have canteen duty, latrine duty as always to the last soldier to arrive…” Darren’s second in command, Palemst Huval Jorenton finished his report, as the Epistratichos stood looking out the front window of his small on-base office. Georgia was about as backwater as there was …
Chapter Twenty One: Run Titan Hybrid by Openhighhat
The morning of the rally dawned grey and windy, though it was comfortably cool, and no drizzle was forecast. Aranta and Jako had been pleased with this; mediocre weather usually drew the best numbers for rallies. If the weather was too bad, people stayed away; if the weather was too good, they found other things …
Chapter 27: Taking a Little Trip Titan: Sovereign by Johnny Scribe
“Are you sure this is a good idea?” Shaar asked worriedly as she glanced around the busy spaceport. She was stashed as safely as she could be in Myona’s pocket but, there were a lot of titans milling about in the busy terminal. And, understandably, being around so many beings that were so much larger …
Chapter Twenty: Turning up the Heat Titan: Hybrid by Openhighhat
Five hours later Sorcha finally terminated the connection to the remote meeting with the Deputy Floor Leader and the Interior Committee. It had been a farce but since the Interior Committee approved her budget, but it was a farce she had to take part in and smile through. She had done her best to stay …
Chapter 17: The Final Round Titan: Pursuit by Johnny Scribe
“Okay Molly, I think Cae’s finally left for…” Ourellia stepped back into the room and found only an empty cage where Molly had once been. At first, Ourellia was confused. She briefly wondered if maybe Molly had escaped on her own and was hiding, but she rejected that idea outright. There was no point in …
Chapter Nineteen: And so it begins Titan: Hybrid by Openhighhat
There was the familiar distant rumbling that anyone who grew up in a type one civilisation would recognise of a large ship attempting to slow itself for landing. “Still can’t see it…” Manka said sweeping back a lock of soaking wet red hair. Sorcha kept her eyes trained on the sky as the rumbling intensified. …
