The void beyond Neptune hums with eldritch energy as Iris, the colossal eye-planet, looms over its chaotic court. Halloween preparations are in full swing: Cyst plots pranks, Macula frantically updates a sanity list, and Vitreous watches in silent judgment. Umbilic, a greenish submoon, careens through the dark carrying a crudely painted asteroid-pumpkin. 'I MADE A PUMPKIN!' she shrieks. Macula sighs, 'That's just... great.' Suddenly, Cyst leaps from the shadows, startling her. 'Let her have fun!' he grins, until Umbilic’s deadpan glare freezes him. '*Umbi*? What kind of name is that?' Cyst retreats, muttering apologies.
