Redemption
Darkness swept across the entire galaxy, and shadow overtook every particle that existed, everywhere. No stone was left unturned, and no corner was left untouched.
The void had completely taken over everything.
In one moment, everything was nothing.
And in the next, everything was back in place.
Azrael’s eyes were firmly shut tight after experiencing such absolute pain. But it had somehow passed, and she once again felt Kali’s beating heart next to hers. The wild thumping struck her chest hard, and told her that they were, in fact, alive.
She reluctantly opened her eyes and saw that the athletic hall was still around them. Whichever soldiers were there at the end were still there as well, along with all thei

And as she regained consciousness, she realized that for the second time in her whole life, she was lying comfortably in a skin-tight medical suit inside of a regeneration pod.She turned her head slightly to the side and looked at the small medical status display set into the inside of the cocoon-like bed.—Condition: Conscious, Stable

Please enjoy!~@~It was within Central Park on the Unnamed Cruiser of the Corvus Republic that the shapeshifting wolves made their home. Scattered all over the lush park were numerous hilly mounds covered with fallen logs and large rocks, all of which were cozy dens where the wolves themselves resided.Amarok padded all around the park itself as she surveyed the homes of her people, and ensured that they had absolutely everything that they wanted or needed.Sure, they were offered more modern structures to live in, furnished with the most advanced technology the Republic had to offer.

Ravens of Eternity Afterword
Hello Wonderful Readers! First things first, I want to give big, huge thanks to each and every one of you who read Ravens of Eternity. Whether you read just a handful of chapters or every single one - I appreciate your support greatly. Extra thanks and shoutouts and hugs to those who directly support me as patrons. Without you all, I might have stopped halfway through the novel itself. Been working on this novel for just about two years straight with a few breaks here and there. Writing the novel energized me greatly, mainly because I’ve had a ton of humanist themes I’ve wanted to explore through writing. You know, like most good science fiction and space opera stories. =) Ravens of Eternity in particular has so many themes about power, corruption, identity, purpose, and togetherness. I tried my best to weave all of these into the narrative through a myriad of characters, and I hope I was able to accomplish it well. I’m sure many of you saw the numerous references to all kinds of
Ravens of Eternity Respawn
Eva’s eyes blinked slowly as she woke in a light haze. As consciousness filled her mind, something told her that things just weren’t quite right. She realized that she wasn’t in her own bed, or even in her own clothes. Instead, she was wearing some kind of skin-tight, pressurized medical suit that covered every inch of her from the neck down. And then, words materialized in her mind’s eye, as though there was a literal computer screen inside of it. — WELCOME — Eva shot upright in absolute alarm at the sight of it, but immediately hit something with a BANG! “What the f…” She rubbed her head after she hit the spotless clear canopy above her, which felt far more solid than glass. “What in hell is going on here?” she cried out. She looked around her frantically, and saw that she was in a cocoon-like, egg-shaped bed about the size of a twin. It was covered in sterile sheets that reminded her of beddings found in a hospital. To each of her sides, just where the glass canopy met the

Eva’s heart thumped steadily as she ran into the busy emergency lifeboat chamber. Once there, she instinctively stepped to the side out of the way to catch her breath, but found that she really didn’t need to. Although her breathing was heavy and labored, she was actually far from tired. Not only that, but she could physically see her stamina bar recharge through her DI’s internal display. Her breathing eased as it rose up, then went back to normal once it topped out. At which point, the stamina bar vanished. “That’s ridiculously nice,” she breathed out. “Could I maybe improve that?” Of course, her DI replied. All people are able to increase both their maximum stamina pool, as well as increase their regeneration rates. “And how do I do that?” Through the act of exerting effort. The more you do, the more you gain. Obviously. “Well that makes sense, I guess.” As she chatted quietly with her own DI, she watched the lifeboat chamber all around her. The room itself was a semi-circu

“Hey you, with the moves!” shouted a crewmember. “Get yourself in a boat already! We don’t have the time for any of this!” Eva nodded before she dashed over to a different lifeboat and ducked inside. The lifeboat was long and thin, like a sausage. And also extremely cramped. There was a gangway down the middle that led straight to the pilot’s chair, which was currently empty. There were seats on both the left and right of the gangway, in pairs and in three rows. So basically, six seats on each side. The seats themselves were bucket-like, and had six-point harnesses that kept the passengers strapped in tight. She swiftly made her way past the anxious passengers and secured herself the only remaining seat up front. Next to her was a teenaged Asian girl who was small and slender. She also had black hair like Eva, but hers was long and straight rather than shoulder-length and tousled. More importantly, she was also wearing the same pressure suit, which made Eva wonder if she was also a

Eva shook herself out of her reverie and got back to reality. She switched the live feed to show what was happening back at the station, and what she saw was a grand spectacle. She quickly decided to analyze the situation and study the battle in greater detail. It oughta be useful to watch how things play out, she thought. I'll probably be in these sorta situations plenty of times down the road. This really could be useful later. The station was surrounded by a handful of cruisers, each accompanied by a few dozen fighters. It didn't look good from any angle. The station looked almost exactly like the game counterpart: a huge rotating disc-like hospital-hab with a docking ring that circled its perimeter. Its gigantic Tetragrammaton Technologies logo was painted on each side of the disc, and made it look like a massive coin. The only difference between this and the in-game version was that it had far less turret emplacements. This made things much harder for them to fend off the s
