Dreams of Horizon
Documenting the lives and times of worlds far removed in both time and space, Dreams of Horizon is a speculative fiction series pushing the limits of what is physically possible in order to explore some of the most exotic and wondrous denizens of deep space. From exploding galaxies to chromatic ice worlds, we embark on an atlas of the fictional Mira Cluster in an exploratory vision of what may lurk out in the endless void.

The Saturnia System: One Last Time For the Road
Between the nebular shells of the Gordian Reach is the inconspicuous Saturnia system. This array of once Mars-like worlds has been rendered unrecognizable by the activities of an intruding civilization, converting it to a scientific testing ground of nightmarish appearance.
The Erebos System: The Light, the Dark, and the Hateful
We come to a seemingly serene system in the middling reaches of the Comatula Nebula which hides a dark secret - a massive black hole, slinging around a normal star from its invisible perch. But this monster is still lying dormant - for now.
The Oroseira System: The Young and the Old
Our travels bring us to the edge of the Tommotia Cluster, where we find an old system shrouded in dust, dying for the first of two times. Even as the first sun of this motley assemblage pulses in its violent opisthotonos, new life is forming in the wings, exhaled as soot in its dying breaths.
The Oceanus System: The Primordial Waters
Near the edge of the Comatula Nebula, we find a demure old binary system with a magnificent entourage of planets. This system, Oceanus, hosts a diverse set of small worlds from sun-baked deserts to magmatic hells to azure ocean worlds. But all is not well, for Oceanus toes the line of instability, inviting a future that may bring cosmic tragedy.
The Horizon System: At the Hubble Horizon
We first arrive in a system unrivaled in its majesty. This wide four-star system hosts an astonishing twenty-five planets of all shapes and sizes, from tiny, Mars-like desert worlds to brown dwarfs on the road to stardom. With thirty-one inhabited worlds, one will struggle to find a more lively system on this side of the galaxy.
