Decades ago, it was said that at the very outer edge of the Taiwei Star System, there were four large planets of similar size and shape. They were named the Four Auxiliary Stars.
From the innermost to the outermost, the people of the Taiwei Star System had named them Auxiliary Star One, Two, Three, and Four, according to their distance from their sun. The outermost, Auxiliary Star Four, sat at the very edge of the Taiwei Star System.

The ring was formed by light reflecting off countless dust particles and crystals. It appeared in space as mysterious, vivid bands of color. Paired with the colorful nebulae in the distant reaches of space, it would make for a breathtakingly beautiful cosmic tableau.
They said that every year, on Canopy Star's traditional Binary Festival, the distant nebula was at its most colorful and appeared largest to the naked eye. When the planets' rings slowly rotated and shimmered against the vast backdrop of space, and the Four Auxiliary Stars' enormous colorful rings joined the display, it was enough to enthrall anyone, whether they were interested in Astronomy and the stars or not.
And if, on the day of the Binary Festival, people boarded a sightseeing ship and traveled to the best vantage point, then turned off all the lights on the observation deck and immersed themselves in darkness, they would be astonished to find themselves seemingly transported in an instant to a dreamlike world of stars.
At that point, even the most inept and untalented photographer
