To those who are still on 16th of June, :-)
Anyways... LORE TIME :D
So, we're touching up upon a bit of planetary biology today in the Sentience AU (Again, a temporary name).
Planetary biology this time would be sort of focused on the operations of 'Powers'.
Powers are something that are explicitly gifted to a planet or star by the universe and can't be taken away by any other means, only disabled. Powers are connected to 'true names' or 'first names', which are also gifted by the Universe. In essence, the Universe grants each planet, star, or moon a 'true name', and the planet, star, or moon will get powers based on the symbolism or stories attached to the name.
In this GCMV or GL2MV (I made this using GL2), there is a split second frame where Saturn's 'true name' is shown. Those who catch onto it can probably take potshots at who has what names in the God Games - Divine Intervention video, however, I strongly suggest just not spoiling too much of who has which name, or just put 'Spoilers' before discussing it in the comment section.
To go a bit more in-depth to reach the actual point, Saturn in this video shows quite a bit of envy, jealousy, exasperation, frustration... etc. sort of emotions. This is going to be explained with the information below.
It is known that the power hierarchy typically follows those with the strongest gravities, so oftentimes, a Gas giant would be stronger than an Ice Giant or a Rocky Planet. However, there are cases where Gas Giants are not the first to awaken in their Star Systems, hence some stabilization the Universe opts to do to ensure every Star System has an equal chance of flourishing and thriving.
In the event an Ice Giant awakens first, the Ice Giant would then siphon off power from a Gas Giant's original capabilities, evolving their own Power, but diminishing one of the strongest weapons a Star System can have as a result. This phenomena is called an 'Evolution', and the resulting Power would be punted into the category of 'Evolved'.
In the extreme event where a Rocky Planet awakens first, it would have to sacrifice a Gas Giant's original capabilities again, much like the Ice Giant would have to in such cases. But in addition to that, to ensure a Rocky Planet can literally fight off against a Gas Giant invader, they are forced to abandon much of their mental faculties, (i.e. sanity), to keep a tight control over that amount of power they were never made to be able to store. Instead of an 'Evolution', this is called 'Hybridization', and the resulting burden of Power is categorized as a 'Hybrid-mix', meant to make the Rocky Planet as much of an All-rounder as possible.
The Solar System is as special as it usually is, so guess what happened to Saturn?
ANYWAYS lore is over :D
Hahahaha I posted this on Father's Day on purpose.
Do not ask me the amount of screenshots this took. I deleted as I edited to save space :/ But I can probably estimate at least 800.
(I hope Saturn is not too 'evil', but they will receive their unpaid dues, be at rest :D)
