(I plan on showcasing AI art from other artists with added story elements from Captain Kestrel's universe. I'm also showing my own original AI artwork of this story. All retweeted images are solely the creative endeavors of their respective artists.)

To the enclaves, exploring these ruins threatens to uncover the transgressions of the ancients and instigate the forest's remorseless anger.

More moderate opponents to exploration believe that it might cause damage to the native habitat. Others simply think it's too dangerous.

[Captain Alistair Kestrel of the C.M.S. Cygnus @CaptainKestrel]

The ancient cities of Venus are a topic of debate amongst the planet's citizens. Many in the great cities see the ruins as an important foundation of cultural enrichment and wish to negotiate exploratory rights when the rare occasion arises. (Cont.)

[Captain Alistair Kestrel of the C.M.S. Cygnus @CaptainKestrel]

Most enclaves are vehemently opposed to this. Due to the predominance of the forests they revere in these ruins, they are considered sacrosanct. It is common belief that ancient Venusians committed egregious sins which caused the forests to extinguish their way of life. (Cont.)

The worlds on the other side of the gate were often just as still. Beasts seemed to shun what they could never comprehend.

But something - someone - peered through the gate from the other side. Familiar, yet foreign, it stood out of reach, waiting for something - someone...

The chromatic gate initially stood silently on the hill, as it had for most of its existence. Suddenly, the surrounding dark was disturbed by the impossible light from it's aperture. The knoll lit up and the land grew quiet as the gate droned a sacred note. (Continued...)

She is also a board member of the Blue Iacinda Institution, which seeks to keep healthy relations between the forest enclaves of Venus with the planet's major cities and the rest of the solarsphere. She recently received the Apollon Star by the Solarian High Council for her work.

(1 of 2) Ni'alua Kadizha is, quite possibly, one of the most famous individuals on Venus, if not the whole solarsphere. She is an actress, playwright, activist, and diplomat. Her half-Venusian heritage makes her popular with many immigrants in her home of Ekil'ad.

The starseers stared in awe. The white apparition hovered as a disappearing sun stained the sky with wine. It seemed to walk toward a portal - a gate, perhaps? What did this vision mean? Did they actually witness the rare appearance of the Lightseer?

(I should mention this Twitter account is kind of a living document, constantly evolving as I go along. Most of these posts are first drafts of story snippets and ideas. I mention this because I already found a better way to write my last post with a different POV character.)

Ayla blushed. The orange star burned in young McConnell. Some grounding meditations seemed to be in order for him. In the meantime, she slyly left the seed of Hoshiki-dono thrashing him in sparring for him to dream about. Ayla couldn't help but giggle a little.

[Captain Alistair Kestrel of the C.M.S. Cygnus @CaptainKestrel]

Ayla always checked on the mental state of the crew as she retired from her daily duty. The beacons fluttered through the ship unseen, glancing into the minds of fellow crewmates. When one peered into Mr. McConnell's head, she found a vision of Hoshiki-dono she didn't expect...
