Outer World

Languid atmospheres churn across the giants, while the moons stand bare against the threats beyond. A void detests nothing as deeply as it detests the material, and the outer planets are voids apart.

Solar Pulse

Nuclear energy drums through the Chained Sun. It swells and bubbles, until it lashes out towards space. Each pulse is a wave of radioactivity that tears through the Sol system. Now it is also the method the sun uses to deliver reinforcements of scourge.

Solaris

sapphic love in space

We didn't believe in angels until they invaded. One by one, the sunscrapers of Mercury fell. At Penumbra, we fight back. -— A wiki for Solaris, a sapphic space opera

  A compendium of the worldbuilding written for my upcoming webcomic. Solaris is a love letter to the wonder I felt looking up at the stars as a kid, and it reimagines our solar system as vivid and mysterious place with aliens galore.   It is not a world without danger. The stars are hostile, and the sun itself has laid siege on Mercury. Angelic armies have scorched the planet, and people fear what will happen should the defence at Penumbra fail.   Winner of Most Beautiful New World 2022 at the World Anvil Worldbuilding Awards, and Worldember Best Body of World 2023
