Venus is a planet in the Solar System. Venus was, like many other bodies within the Solar System, terraformed and colonized by humanity during the Golden Age.[1] The ruins of that era remain choked in vegetation,[2] though humanity has regained a presence on the planet.[1] Sulfuric gasses are vented from the surface of the planet.[3] Crackling lightning flashes through the sulfuric yellow sky, and the jungle has grown over the remnants of the scientific research settlement that humanity once held here. Now, the city's buildings are slowly being swallowed up by the Venusian ocean. Instead, the towering Vex citadel now draws the eye - a hulking obelisk Jenga tower of weird geometric shapes. It's purpose remains unknown, but the robotic Vex unceasingly defend it.[4]
