Congratulations on surviving 12/21/12.......no I'm joking, what a mess that was, with all the people believing it was going to occur, so many lulz were had. In any case, I can't believe I'm wrapping up this chapter with my final Rise series artwork, but fear not, for the Quiet series will succeed it, starting in January 2013. Thank you everyone for your downloads, faves, and support, especially after having received my first Daily Deviation with Into the Distance. As we reach the end of 2012 I look back and see just how much this year has enhanced my life, not only through my work here but through my art studies as well. As the holidays approach I will be off Deviantart until the second week of January(Monday the 7th), and with that I have only one thing left to say: I am SeraphZer0, and I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! See you in 2013!!

Story: We have reached the end of our journey through the Ethiian L system as we arrive at Aexis 5R. It is a beautiful sight to behold as the inhabitants of Oniplax view their former home. This planet was resilient like Hathis 4R and being the second most massive, it had quite a powerful gravitational pull. This allowed it to hold nearly 3300 moons in a stable orbit expanding nearly 53 million miles in diameter. Only three moons and the planet survived the hypernova. They carry their sorrows and tears in the form of hyper rings, an exotic type of ring system composed of very rare minerals such as Diasthorium and Q.S.D.M. These minerals all originated from the very moons surrounding Aexis.....

The last planet has been observed. The data has been written. We now leave this system and head out to spread the Tales of the Survivors, the Rise of the Planets, and beyond that we shall head into the unknown, the once piercing, twice consuming peace known as....The Quiet.
