My Writing
Quartz is a frozen tropical planet with different regions land, fire and water. Quartz is a rock giant. This planet is very far away in another galaxy. Lots of beautiful animals live on Quartz, they are made of crystals and are shiny like the sun. Quartz is very ātaahua. You can get there by portal on Mars. Lots of people go to Quartz to explore and relax. You can study plants and animals and also the taiao on Quartz. Nothing bad can happen on Quartz because the animals are harmless.
