I Am Reikonscian

Sometimes, under the darkness of the dead of night, beneath the wisps of hope cast off by the glowing moon, I think of home. The beautiful countryside, a crisp road cutting through the untamed hills. The twinkling stars. Reikonscia. When … Continue reading

Why I Have Nightmares

Part 1 I can think of precious few things that scare me shitless like Tyranids. Actually, nothing comes to mind at the moment, and I’ve seen some scary stuff out there. I’ve heard some guys talk about demons being worse, … Continue reading

Son of Nagarythe

Sweat. Silence. I ran forward—not the lumbering, clumping run of a human, but instead my far lighter, elven step. The breeze rustled as it blew past, making more noise than my footsteps. Ingrained by the drilling of decades, the training … Continue reading

The Man From Nowhere [20K]

This is the tale of the XMS Southern Cross, a pioneer ship of the Terran Navy. Captain Jacob Darnall and his crew had guided their Canyon-class cruiser through the perils of Solar Segment, besting pirates and alien raiders in fraught combat, exploring unknown anomalies in space… ensuring the survival of the fledgeling Empire.

The Southern Cross was nearing the end of a two-year tour of duty. Its crew were already looking forward to their return to Sol for refit, resupply and well-earned shore leave, when Lieutenant Lim detected a faint but insistent distress call. The communications specialist alerted her captain, and the Southern Cross moved to investigate.

The incident is provided in narrative form, reconstructed from recordings in the ship’s log and certain on-board sensor footage. What conclusions you draw from this information is your own business; though you will surely experience some of the trepidation our brave Navy crews must feel as they venture out into the haunted darkness of space.

Documenting A Necron Invasion

Do not trust anything I say in this vox log. What you hear will be hard to take. I speak the truth, and the truth is a lie.

I am a survivor. My name…I’m not going to tell you that. It’s important they don’t know who I am. Oh Throne, oh Throne…they won’t get me in here. They can’t. They don’t know me, they don’t know what I know. I can feel them searching for me! It brushes against me like fingers down a chalkboard, like fingernails being drawn along the curve of my spine. That reaching mind…like a searchlight beam sweeping the foliage, looking for hidden soldiers.

Toy soldiers, all in a line. All dead without their skins or their faces. Meat for the machines.

Hahahahaha! Continue reading

Electronic Mind Map [20K]

I have spent fourteen years in a prison of my own devising. I created it. Placed myself within it. And I drew the door closed behind me. The walls are a blue laser grid. The grid represents circuity; arcane technology … Continue reading

Anointed In Blood

There is a place, they say, where disciples of evil meet in open worship. They gather together in the grounds of a monastery long since desecrated with blood and excrement. This defiled place stands alone in the bleak plains of … Continue reading
