Named Glacius IX, the planet gleams like a sapphire from space, its atmosphere a translucent veil of crystallized gases. Approximately the size of Neptune, Glacius IX is distinguished by its bright, icy blue color which subtly shifts to deeper shadesโa reflection of the extensive glacial and reflective crystalline ice caverns that dominate its surface. The surface of Glacius IX is a labyrinth of immense crystal ice caverns which project prismatic light displays, offering a visually spectacular maze of interconnected chambers. These caverns, while enchanting, flourish under brutally low temperatures that often plummet to -180ยฐC, preserving the ice in pristine condition, and creating an environment rife with delicate ice structures and frozen gas pillars. The unique phenomenon of 'crystal weather,' wherein light is reflected and refracted by airborne ice particles, produces almost otherworldly skies that promise an endless variety of twilight hues.
