You study the pieces Scattered around the room Failing is fruitful So long as we do not forget to move

CRAZY to think that I'll have been in @forgotten-elegy for FOUR years this july- it's been one heck of a ride and I enjoyed every minute of it!

Usually with big ref updates i like to post comparisons of the old and news ones but, instead, ya'll can enjoy this cheeky little age progression <3 she's changed a lot in four years.

what's the planet like? I'm curious about how harsh the territory is, the different kind of threats they might run into, that sort of thing!

I am actually soooo glad you asked and I hope that answering this will help return my fervor in working on this fanclan. I'll try to keep this FAIRLY brief.

Keep in mind that I am a layman who is by no means an expert so there will be mistakes and things wrong- this is a warrior cats blog and I am NOT an expert in any way.

Now! To start things off! As you may have noticed on the character pages, our casts' residence is listed as Gliese 667Cc. This is a real planet! However, we really only know it exists because of its interactions with the other bodies in its stellar system soooo A LOT of what you'll see below is stuff that either scientists believe to be true about it or that I have made up.

The Gliese 667 is actually super interesting, it is a TRIPLE star system located in the Scorpius constellation [the stars are named A, B, and C... you see where this is going]. Planet "Vegas" aka Gliese 667Cc is a planet orbiting the star Gliese 667C and in our fictional setting it was renamed "Scorpio" by the colonists. Scorpio is a red dwarf and therefore a lot dimmer and cooler than our Sun and, because of this, the habitable zone is a lot closer to the star itself.

One of the consequences of this closeness is that Vegas is tidally locked, or in other words, the same face of the planet always faces the sun. Vegas does not rotate on it's axis the way earth does. This means ONE side of the planet is scorching hot and the other is freezing cold. The only part of the planet that is livable for human colonists is a band of twilight that lies between these extremes.

This tidal locking also means that Vegas doesn't have a day and night cycle the way one would expect. It's named after Vegas, the city that never sleeps, for a reason. While it is never fully dark, there are periods of dimmer light and brighter light. "Night" is an eternal, wine red sunset that casts the landscape in a ruddy glow. "Day" is determined by the presence of the moon as it reflects the light of the sun back down, casting everything in silver. Vegas's moon was named "Chronos" for this reason.

I have a lot of other notes and fun facts typed out in but they aren't quite as interesting to me. I've also got some fun alien critter planned for future pieces! I'll leave you with this early sketch page of cast concepts [and a suprise] as a preview of things to come.

Judgement

While the card itself is usually a call for self-reflection, to me it also represents the intervention of the divine or an absence of it. Are the stars watching? What will you lose if they act? What will you lose to make them act?

Happy Secret Swap @forgotten-elegy
