these are mostly concerning Hypernova (previously Zenith Lore (cringe)) and planets within them:

  1. i won't spoil a lot, but should Zenith break the 5th wall during the final fight?
    essentially he battles a god, and as a distraction he reveals that both he, the god, and everyone else in the universe are just fictional characters inside my mind, shocking the god and allowing Zenith to get extreme plot armor and set up a final attack... should this be implemented into the finalized version of the story or should i replace it with something else?

  2. realistically, how would blueish-gray rocks form?
    a lot of my planets (many things in Mortan and ZG2, but also in the new system i'm making) have funky rocks that are a grayish blue color (see the surface images of said planets to get a reference) ...how would this color be attained realistically, i.e. what would the main composition of the rock be, and what other elements could be featured in it?

  3. is there a name generator out there for making fake Scandinavian words that i could use for celestial body names?
    in the new system, there will be a gas giant with strong Scandinavian motifs (and yes there'll be a moon that is a nod to my favourite sports car company, Koenigsegg) but i only wanna use names that sound Scandinavian but don't mean anything in any of the languages in order to avoid accidentaly naming a planet after a swear word (i'll still throw in some real words though)... so, is there a good name generator for this?

    @JanusSpaceIndustries in a way yes it's similar to an epic in some but not all aspects, and it's also very very long
    that said, here's a link to an outdated version (pre-read disclaimer & parts 1-9), currently it's written up to part 20 but i haven't added those to the public version yet so it will be quite old

    Is your Zenith Lore like an epic? I do not want you to spoil the Zenith Lore (because the story sounds interesting), but can you provide some things? I write random short stories so I can use my knowledge to help you if you need it (that's is how I made (and still working on it) my story/lore dubbed, "TOWFITTS", or "The Only Way Forward Is Through The Stars").

    @Zenithspeed for questions number 2, according to chat ppt, the closest grayish-blue rock that earth have is Blue Schist, a type of metamorphic rock. Its grayish-blue coloration is primarily caused by the presence of the mineral glaucophane, which is rich in sodium and aluminum. Blue Schist typically forms under high-pressure, low-temperature conditions in subduction zones, where one tectonic plate is being pushed beneath another.
    Another answer is blue minerals or iron that have blue oxidation under specific condition.

    @Zenithspeed Well if you have google account (which probably everyone have since it's just Gmail), you can try Google BardAI. I never used it though, but i think it's good i guess.

    @Zenithspeed you just login and get free access of GPT 3.5 (which is already powerful tool if the enough context is given). Though if you use it too much or during peak hour, they might limit your access for a while. Or you can try other Chat AI like Bing or Google BardAI.

    For number III, I’d recommend giving meaning to your planet’s name, then adapt it for a language of your choice.
    For something Swedish, call it Stordimma, for instance, which is a compound word formed from the translation of Great Mist.

    for question number 3, you can probably ask Ai Chat like ChatGPT, Though sometime not accurate.
