Of Cybertron: What Once Was (Version 2)

It was a haunting, tragic thing. Cybertron's Alpha Preserve had once been a glorious, peaceful preserve, dedicated to the natural wonders of Cybertron, dominated by twisted, glittering metallic plant life and ancient, hypnotic abstract sculptures. But now, the place was a ruin of its former self. Metallic vines hung like limp hair from steel tree-like structures. Silver-grey corpses of flowering plants with cog-like petals and iridescent metal blossoms lay half-dead on the metallic Cybertronian earth. The remains of those ancient sculptures stood like decaying tangles of rusted metal; their brilliant shine reduced to faint echoes of what once was. Above this place, Cybertron's two alien moons cast an eerily tragic, yet almost frightening glow on the devastated landscape.
