If anyone with keen eyesight were to look closely, they would discover it wasn't a blood moon at all, but an impossibly massive serpent.
Its body, like a continuous mountain range, stretched majestically across the night sky, currently coiled into a sphere.
A strange, bloody light shimmered on the surface of its black scales. Though motionless, it gave one the distinct impression of being alive.
This was no illusion. The event from half a month ago was no secret. While not everyone on Earth Star witnessed it, information traveled at incredible speeds in this digital age. It took only half an hour
for news about it to hit the headlines of every major news outlet, social media platform, and short-form video app.
But there was something strange.
No matter what equipment was used to photograph it, the result was always a blurry, pixelated mess.
It could only be seen clearly with the naked eye.
