Planetes
Prologue (edited)

When you look up, look at the vast night sky. Stars, moons, even planets are scattered there. Is beautiful. Everything looks so glittering in the dark sky. Of course that's what you're watching from where you stand, isn't it?

Let's suppose that you have the ability to penetrate the earth's atmosphere and see all of it from where you stand. What's in there?

Look at the infinite space, where as far as the eye can see there is only a dark color. Unable to know where the end of the room is. Scientists say that there may be an end to space. Even though it is still a theory.

Long ago, before the solar system was created. It is said that there are celestial objects that are the 'core' of all celestial objects that exist in the present. The sky thing then exploded and that's what we call the Big Bang.

The result of these explosions, one of which is what we call a galactic system. Not just one, let alone two. The number is said to exceed what we know today based on information from scientists.

Within the galaxy, there is a solar system that is the beginning of this story begins. In the beginning with the change of the warm figure of Mentari— who is the giver of life for his children (planets, moons, asteroids, etc.), into a figure of tyranny, until the adventure of the eighth planet of the solar system in Mayapada.

These celestial bodies have a duty, protecting the earth creatures from the minions of Mentari. Even from the evil of other celestial objects that alternately come to earth with a bad purpose.

They all have a human form— which was originally a gift from Mentari, to make it easier when carrying out their obligations. With different abilities than humans in general. Jua represents the natural strength of each of its major bodies.

What about their real bodies as planets or other celestial bodies? They're still in space there. Stay in their respective positions without intersecting with each other.

Those in human form are blessed to live long and almost eternal lives. Yes, almost immortal. Because their immortality only applies if they get an attack from an earth creature.

Errata, a rude creature to be exact. Because astral beings or other creatures that you think only exist in fairy tales, can affect their lives.

Wounds caused by earth creatures have no effect on them—celebrity beings. But it will have a big impact if the one who does is a celestial creature too.

The heavy wounds they received from the celestial beings could cause a loss of consciousness. Whereas if they die and lose their human form, they will not be able to have that form again.

The story will focus on the embodiment of Neptune. How he came to earth, his adventures, and also loved the sorrow of spending time with earth creatures called earthlings.

He is a complex, complicated person when described one by one about him. But you will understand if you understand how his life on earth.

This is where it all starts. A person's nightmares, tragedies, fears, even senseless things will happen in this story.
