Countless worlds span the universe! Hundreds of planets are civilized. Thousands are uncharted or unexplored. And all of them offer death to unwelcome visitors. But where to go? What to do? Need the best weapons and armaments modern technology can offer? Visit Alforro, where elves run the largest manufacturing companies this side of the known universe! Want a custom ship with mods unavailable anywhere else in the universe? Hurry over to Verrgal, home of the legendary dwarven engineers! Searching for the best organic, farm-grown steel? Then the hills of Buurzeim are a must-see, but make sure to offer a hefty tip to your giant tour guide! With so many worlds to manage, only the most vast and powerful planetary councils can do the job. But with all the varied opinions and agendas spanning the universe, it’s only natural that no single regime has managed to control it all. And always keep an eye open for outlaws. Whether you’re in the outer corners of the known universe or in the center of an intergalactic capital. Outlaws are everywhere… especially with the Mob Lords controlling the universal underworld. Luckily, the last Outlaw Overlord, the most wanted man in the universe, was done in less than two decades ago! In such a vast, chaotic universe, who would dream of adventuring as an outlaw? Why not become a bounty hunter in search of prestige and wealth? And there’s always an opening among one of the many intergalactic patrols, offering promotions to the most dependable, powerful soldiers! Then again, with no other option available, that’s everything Ayse can possibly dream of. To be an outlaw on the run! To see every sight imaginable! To explore an entire universe of fantastic worlds! Even if he has to avoid possible capture and death at every turn. But can Ayse survive that long? Will Ayse be able to dodge his unavoidable past without consequences? Can Ayse successfully form his own outlaw posse with his recruited, self-founded family? Or will Ayse drag his newfound friends into the deadliest conflict the universe will ever face, risking the total extinction of sentient life? ****************** A Sci-fi/Fantasy Epic!!! ~ BULK RELEASES!

Ayse took a moment to collect the knife he had thrown. That's when Ayse realized that the archer's wonder was now focused on the serpent corpses.
As LaRee felt the short, wing-like membranes of a dead snake, Ayse said, "They're called skythons. There's no actual sky in the dymension. But when these things fly around like that, the name makes sense."
"Skythons… A sky python?" LaRee deduced.
"That's right! And don't think these are the worst of them. There are all kinds of skythons, and these are some of the smallest we'll come across," Ayse stated, blowing through LaRee's homeworld expectations with a single phrase.
Ayse continued, "The good thing about skythons is that they're not venomous. So they're easier to butcher and eat. By any chance, do you have any experience with harvesting meat or animal skins?"
Smirking, LaRee laughed, "That's all I have experience with. I never handled a skython. But if this is just a sky python, I can do it."
