Binary Worlds


        One orb-like object, smaller in size, dances with a careful grace around a larger orb. They spin and move together around in a circle. The darkened skies lit only by the trillions of stars, whose varying colors come together to make a beautiful backdrop for the two orbs. The large orb, lit by the nearest of the bright stars, slowly guides its friend around the bright ball of blue flames.

The large orb, a giant in of itself, radiates with an elegant, deep shade of cobalt blue.  Deep beneath the layers of cobalt blue lay nothing but an endless sea of viridian. A consistent world seeming to only containing swells and infrequent atolls, yet deep below the pristine surface of the viridian seas live multitudes of alien life forms.

The small orb compliments its partner with its deep vermilion and burnt orange surface, its tremendous craters and vast seas of flame. A perpetually changing world with colossal mountains and the most desolate landscape. Brightly colored geometric stone and ore formations that can seem organic when looked at under the light of the night-time sky dot the orb, even in the most hellish of places.


The fiery mass very gradually increases its temperature and size, slowly approaching the two orbs, but never intruding upon their dance. The ball of bright blue flames finally bursts, as if it had collapsed in on itself, and a wave of vivid blues and reds tenderly encompass the orbs.  A luminous white orb takes the place of the bright ball of blue flames, continues to let out the waves of reds and blues that gently caress the binary worlds.
