Planet Xylophara gleams like a polished opal from orbit, its atmosphere shimmering with refractive clouds that scatter light across its vast, vegetative landscapes. Colliding with its dense, humid air, its unique meteorological phenomenon—crystalline rainfall—occurs. This spectacle is not only mesmerizing but also vital in shaping Xylophara's lush, biodiverse terrain. The surface is dominated by vast rainforests, where towering trees glisten with mineral-rich bark. Here, the crystal rain fosters unique botanical life, the flora equipped with sparkling, translucent leaves capable of photosynthesizing low light. This adaptation is crucial in seasons when thick crystal deposits form canopies, filtering sunlight into a spectrum of radiant hues that dance across the forest floor. One can observe the constant interplay between light and life here—the illuminated heart of Xylophara.
