Everdien

Everdien is a fictional planet located in the fictional galaxy of Xylos. It is known for its lush, bioluminescent flora and fauna that thrive in its perpetually twilight atmosphere. The planet’s surface is characterized by vast, interconnected cave systems and towering, crystalline structures that reach towards its twin moons. The dominant sentient species, the Lumina, are a silicon-based lifeform that communicate through a complex system of light pulses and resonant frequencies.

The Lumina civilization has a deep spiritual connection to the planet's geological and biological cycles, believing that the planet itself possesses a consciousness. Their society is organized into communal enclaves, each specializing in different aspects of planetary stewardship, such as energy cultivation from geothermal vents or the careful tending of bioluminescent fungi gardens. They are known for their intricate, light-sculpted art and their philosophical pursuits regarding cosmic harmony.

Everdien’s ecosystem is a delicate balance of light and shadow. The planet’s unique geological makeup influences the distribution of its energy sources, leading to distinct biomes within the cave systems. Research expeditions from other galactic civilizations have shown interest in Everdien for its unique biological compounds and potential for advanced energy research, though the Lumina are cautious about external interference, prioritizing the preservation of their homeworld.
