Arcane Apocalypse ~ 113
******************************************************************************************************************************************https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ESMsj3zWuUfAwu_fKFdIvvF2ZsK5Nwkt1Zz_b8AxbGs/edit?usp=sharing******Mia slowly chewed the tear-jerkingly spicy slice of pepper, scrunching her eyes close as she just went through the motions of chewing despite her entire tongue and mouth having gone numb after the first slice. It would be worth it, and more importantly, this was the very last slice of that evil pepper she had...

Space Marine minds were tough cookies, I found. Some I could crack open and fish around for information in, while others sorta … imploded when I pushed too quick or too hard. And being inside a mind while it collapsed around you, on top of you? That was not a fun experience, let me tell you. It was distinctly uncomfortable, like being stuck in a sandstorm where particles of sand kept flying into your eyes and ears.I suspected a lesser telepath would have had their minds crushed had they not been quick enough to vacate the mind in question, bu...

All that talk about how being able to work together was just as important as pure firepower and the man had the gall to name both her team and the one led...

Solomon Tetrarchus stared at the holographic display showing the war happening aboard his ship. His face was set in a grim line, and he waved a hand to make the 3D floating replica of the labyrinthine interior of his ship zoom in on the section around the final boarding pod.Just minutes ago, the call came in alerting them that the Watch-Captain, the Emperor’s foremost Angel of Death in the entire Fleet, was fucking dead. Worse, the damned abomination in the shape of an Ork that did him in just got back up and laughed.How did they know that? W...

I had my Space Noodle head for one of the largest ships, a cruiser floating right besides the flagship. The flagship itself had too many ‘protagonist’ grade people on it, along with good old Solomon, who I wasn’t quite done with yet. Still, I wanted the space snake to be too close for comfort to them.Plus, there were also a few people I was keeping an eye on among the ones aboard the targeted cruiser. Heroic Guardsmen, rugged veterans, determined Space Marines … even some Space Marines with their helmets off.Space Wolves almost always h...

A/N: First of all, sorry for the late upload, I thought I had this chapter scheduled but I didn't. Exam season is in full force, and my mind is all over the place.******https://docs.google.com/document/d/1edDg-PtUrr1e7IfUARNFwi8jbNGLeUInlHNo-MKdCOo/edit?usp=sharing******As far as fights went, the final push towards the Rift’s entrance had been surprisingly painless. A handful of factors worked together to achieve that, of course, from the soldiers — all of whom were now starting to close in on level 10 — to the fact they knew where th...

Barros Keir held a deep scowl on his face, hidden behind his black Astartes helmet as he fired away at the incoming wave of greenskins. His weapon spat out thick blasts of plasma, incinerating the unarmoured flesh and bones it came across with little effort.It would have sparked a malicious joy in his heart any other time to smell the scent of burning flesh, to hear the dying screams of the Emperor’s enemies.That treacherous joy that had landed him in the Deathwatch, dishonoured, disowned and among the rest of the discarded wretches.It was no...

A/N: Sorry for the late upload, my tax return has been a monumental pain in the ass, especially with my dumb, procrastinating ass left it for the last minute.

Heh.**********************************************************************************************************************************https://docs.google.com/document/d/1q5RfmHz-REZVBG5Q4pM8PXE94D05-L1jl6p3ai4Hb0Y/edit?usp=sharing********************************“Were those things rea...

Nulls, Blanks, Pariahs. Was that the extent of their tricks? Did the Deathwatch think that would be enough to kill me?Or were their ‘pocket-blanks’, as that one Marine called them, just the means they were using to hide their true ace in the hole from my sight?Well, if nothing else, the Orks were proving useful in drawing the Deathwatch out and making them play this game on my terms. Better yet, they did so without any risk to myself. Only a select few Orks, like Throgg, had a link to me through the eldritch implants I’d given them, but t...

The emphasis was on purr-like. It was an ethereal rumbling sound that was just not quite what a real purr would sound like.Is there such a thing ...

A/N: Another non-Echidna POV. Here comes our 'heroes', the maybe-protagonists of this story where they must overcome the Big Bad Evil Girl™. Or maybe they will die horrifically by the end of this chapter like the poor guardsman from the last one. Who knows.*****Haegar Tarn, Watch-Brother and Scout of Kill Team Varran — formerly of the Space Wolves Chapter until he put a fist through the wrong person’s head — kneeled over the corpse of the strange beast laid out before him. Even with the always overeager Brother Merek having done...

A/N: Another kinda-sorta Interlude, though it really isn't. I just thought seeing the fight from the Imperial Pov would be far more engaging than from Echidna's, who's treating it as a super-realistic wargame. I added some new illustrations to the latest SH chapter, if you're interested. Echidna with elven ears, classy echidna and casual echidna illustrations at the beginning of the chapter, in the Author's Notes.

Solomon stared forward, his face set in a grim scowl as his mind surveyed the information the Machine Spirit was feeding him.First contact with the enemy was still far away, but he couldn’t be prepared enough. With the majority of his psykers out of commission or dead, the rest of his arsenal had to be in perfect shape.“The sensors are picking up something, heat signatures moving through the frozen asteroid cloud,” the auspex operator said, his voice rising in alarm and going almost shrill as he continued. A pathetic showing for one of th...

It was pretty handy that all my Arcologies were mostly made of organic materials. It meant I could take control of them from afar, grabbing the seed of eldritch flesh I’d left behind in each to shape the Arcologies as I wished, letting me add in extra things I’d forgotten without having to tear down parts of it and rebuilding it the old-fashioned way.Some of the Mayors or their general staff who’d gone through the blueprints I’d provided were probably scratching their heads, or suspicious, at a brand new room that seemingly didn’t exi...

Building a fleet of spaceships was surprisingly easy. Making them match the Imperial Fleet in strength, was less so. They had Void-Shields, and I didn’t, the tyranids usually went with thick carapace and a swarm of fliers surrounding bigger ships to make hitting anything of real consequence practically impossible.But that was lame. Swarm tactics were not cool, I wanted quality instead of just sheer quantity making up for the lack of any real quality.I wanted my sleek and elegant gigantic spaceships that inspired shock and awe in people, damni...

We have food and water too.”Mia waited for a few seconds, hearing only weak shuffling from the basem...

“What a disgusting, paranoid little man,” I murmured to myself, holding the whimpering mind of Solomon Tetrarchus in my hand. “Well, I still have some use for you yet.”I might have broken his mind just a tiny bit, but I made sure to make a snapshot of it beforehand. I’d used the time we spent chatting — he spent it trying to shoot me and then himself while I was the one making small talk, but it still counted as chatting in my books — to map his mind, and to record it in detail. I made an artificial replica of it too, back in my R...

If this was a trap made specifically to ruin my day, what would it be? How would I mess with me, if I was an eldritch asshole thriving on messing with people? I thought to myself, floating in the void of space with distant asteroids slowly floating by me. In the distance, well beyond what even my eyes could see by themselves, I could see the thermal signatures of the Fleet’s exhaust plumes as infinitesimal little pinpricks of light. What can even hurt me as I am?Nulls were the obvious answers. A suitably powerful Pariah could sever my Avatar ...

Running a few hours late, but here it is. *****“Lady Echidna, I felt something horrible just minutes ago!” Zara said the moment she laid eyes on me, and if she wasn’t scared out of her mind and trembling like a newborn fawn, she would have probably realised it wasn’t a coincidence that I gathered everyone for a meeting right after she felt a pair of gods swing their giant green dicks about in my territory.“Really?” I asked curiously. “And what was it you felt?”“Rage and bloodlust flooding everything, making the very air shimme...

The tiny vials were the size and shape of her pinky finger, and held just a single gulp of the stuff, but that’d be enough to get her back to a full mana pool.Zeigler had surprised them when he sent the things ov...

I got , caught, have tinnitus (or something similar, inner ear inflamation I think?) and as a result I’ll be spending the next 5 days in the hospital, with an IV making my right hand useless for most of it. I’m not outright saying I won’t be uploading chapters, I fo have the next GWH chapter written (though not edited) so maybe I’ll manage. But no promises. This bullshit came out of the left field and completely blindsided me. Apologies, I know I left you guys on a cliff and am now blueballing you. Sorry for that. I’ll probably manag...
