Something is wrong in passing. Dead wrong. Everything about it is broken. It doesn't spin like other planets. It rolls. It drags its magnetic field behind it as if a broken limb. It is a world that suggests a violent, ****** history. A planetary crime scene frozen in time. The only answer is violence. Catastrophic violence. Whatever found it, knocked it on its side. The seasons here are indeed that of nightmares. Deep beneath the clouds, the pressure is so intense that the molecules themselves are crushed. Just like his brother Neptune, deep within it rains diamonds. But unlike Neptune, this place is strangely cold. A frozen zombie. The rings around it are a lifeless charcoal. The cosmic pilgrims long dead; their bones having formed into battered moons smashed apart by a hammer and then haphazardly pieced back together again. They're simply an orbital graveyard of the quiet gray death known as planet seven from the sun.
