Lux - planet of the desert and the fog.

Lux is a dwarf planet which rotates around the huge blue giant in binary star system, because of it there is no darkness for half part of year on Lux. Most of the land is covered by stony soils, where water doesn't settle but lingers over the desert as water vapor.

Here's rich flora and extremely impoverished fauna. Almost all animals are microorganisms.

Current intelligent life on Lux isn't animal life form, but plant life form. Replacement of animal intelligent life by plant civilization occurred after global disaster, which destroyed almost everything on the planet. *If you want to read more about it - Story is here*

All what's left - the area of Sanctuary of the World Heart (which can protect itself) and its guardian, the last of survived, named Licci. Licci was the one who told story of Lux Guardinal and some knowledges about Harmonic energy. *information is here*

Destroyed civilisation was really powerful, it was one of the first races in the galaxy which learned to read the Book of the Gates.
Soft influence of every developed World Heart impacts on planet's inhabitants, turn all intelligent life forms using harmonic energy into humanoids. Same thing happened with Senior race of Lux.

Plant life form evolved variously, There were a few species of intelligent creatures, which kept their unital floral appearance, which called "Lowly race". Lowly race has stopped mostly on primitive social organisation
One of them 'races' is Ayasha species *you can read more here*, the other is Ras'Gai species. They are intelligent carnivorous plants who use harmonic energy though instincts from time to time.

But the third species is different. They followed in Senjor race's footsteps. They called themself "Heir race". Their ancestors found ruins of the first Lux civilization and also the World Heart with it's Guardian. Heir race picked up a lot of cultural and social specifics from the Senjor race.
The members of the Heir race look least like plant life form. However, their structure indicates that they stay be plants at the cellular level.

For example, 'halo' around the head. It's external organ, the use of which is solar energy storage. Plant species feed off the sun's energy coupled with nutrients derived from the fog. Because of physical activity members of Heir race need more energy then their static brothers, every minute, and Heir members use the energy of sun from their halo in the dark to be active.

We will talk about Heir culture and history in the next chapter.
