The silence of the void is deafening. Earth’s shattered corpse drifts in the dark, a third of its mass gone, Americas erased, core exposed to the freezing vacuum. Luna weeps beside the ruin, half-face scarred. Jupiter and Saturn, eyes fading from blood-red fury, stand amidst the debris of a moon massacre. Neptune chats with Iris, oblivious to the grief. Uranus scribbles in a diary, trembling. Solar, the Sun, flickers with unstable light, mumbling puns into the abyss, his sanity fraying as he ignores the chaos. The inner planets huddle, shuffling cards to cope with the silence.
