World of the Mad

Langdon has become immortal on the strange planet Tanith, a world of ever‑shifting violet mists, crystalline flora and a sky lit by three moons. He hopes to share this ageless existence with his wife, but first he must keep her mind from unraveling in an environment that constantly warps perception. Guided by a sense that defies sight, he moves through forests where flowers bite and the ground itself seems to hum with unseen voices.

The planet’s alien city flickers into view, its luminous spires and winged inhabitants shimmering like living constellations. Though the air is silent, Langdon feels the pulse of a civilization that is both beautiful and utterly alien, a reminder that even eternity can be lonely. As he returns toward his secluded home, the surreal landscape—glowing trees, ever‑changing skies, and strange, ever‑mutating lifeforms—offers both wonder and a quiet warning about the price of living forever.
