A landscape on Livari, the capital of the Empire. Picture courtesy of mum. Please do focus your attention to how much time and love my mother has put into the Sanhirr Galaxy - and please compliment accordingly.  |

I like it! The vegetation is an interest contrast to the arid landscape. You'll forgive me if I think it's not as cute as the last one though.  |

Reminds me of the vinyards of Lanzarote; I imagine the inhabitants would dig deep holes, then bury non-plant-like non-plants that sprout harvestable shoots and sprout siphonable seeds that are held in alien finger-like petals.
The geysers there probably mean there's a lifeform that uses it to spread its genes. Is there a geyser-cover plant? I'm getting technical, but you've excited quite some creativity in me.

Err, the geysers are volcanic steam vents. And the term we've conjured to describe the Livarians themselves is reptilo-marsupoid.

Double-post to say HERE'S ANOTHER ONE! Same view, just looking to the left.  |

Looking good. I'm going to assume the atmosphere doesn't have the same composition as Earth's due to all the purple, and that this is a very seismically active planet... Can't wait to invade. |

And that, guys, is the proper sentiment.  We'll have to figure out what the atmosphere's got in it, but it is breathable by Natatians. And aye, it's a very seismically active planet - the volcanic vents kept the area warm enough for the cold-blooded Livarians to evolve beyond mere animals and into sentience. |
