SHIMMER

[May Wasserman]

Shimmer is a sunless oblong world a few hundred miles long, plummeting
through the void between stars. Phosphorescent clouds form above its
surface, often dropping shimmerfall: showers of rainbow sparks that
provide sustenance and light to an ecology of crystalline lifeforms. In
the highest mountains around the equator, so much shimmerfall collects
that it forms a vast lake of glowing light and energy in a mountain
valley. In this fertile place, the most sophisticated and intelligent of
the crystalfolk have arisen. They must defend Shimmerfall Lake from the
Dark Ones: obsidian monsters that lurk below, which have learned to
hoard their shimmer to survive, but crave the light and bounty that the
people of the lake need for themselves.
