I find something oddly reassuring and comforting about one simple fact: it may be a distant planet with a civilization we know nothing about… but a tractor is still a tractor.
For someone who is far too aware of the tropes used in fiction, this scene fills me with dread because the only thing going on in the back of my mind is that these people are going to die.
I’m pretty sure that’s how they made meth in Breaking Bad.

remember how when speck was returning he barely dodged one of cort’s practice shots with the star caster? The Starcaster Chronicles, 10.02 – Ctrl+Alt+Del Comic Ctrl+Alt+Del (cad-comic.com) im 99% sure this is gonna be the poor scrum town on the other side of the sector that the energy is gonna dissipate all the freak over the galaxy. and the captain marvel wannabe is gonna use that as a excuse to go kick cort’s ass as a enemy.
I was thinking the exact same thing, but then it occurred to me that this looks like a “fringe planet.. densely populated with settlers.” (Phone won’t let me link, check out Ch 10 Pg 15 from Aug 10, 2022.)
either way, whether its a scrum town on the other side of the sector, or a fringe planet densly populated with settlers, they are gonna end up with a lethal sunburn from a starcaster, whether accidental (cort) or on purpose (vectanix) either way, someones last words are gonna be “OH SHI-” *boom*
Essentially the only way that could ever happen is in fiction. Space is ridiculously big. – If the beam spreads then its not a danger, if it doesnt spread it’s not going to hit anything before it passes out of the universe.

I find it interesting that your concept of alien cattle is basically a cow/yak… with more eyes. It’s very human 🙂

I’m guessing this is a cross between “Little House on the Prairie” and “Episode IV: A New Hope”.

Aaaaaand…snap
Lovely scene setting, actually. Yhough I wonder one thing, if this is somehow a shoutout to the planet of hats concept.

Its probably a family heirloom 😀
If it works…
Deep Protoss voice: “We require more minerals!”
Opening on a Blue Harvest? That’s a classy hat-tip.
Looks like he’s planting Blue Tiberium.
Kane wants to know your location.
Visitors want to know your location.
I thought it was the minerals from Starcraft.

The last sunset
well, that farmer family is dead.
Is he…farming glowing crystals? Are those edible? Like organic rock candy?
Anything is edible if you’re determined enough. Not everything is edible twice, though
I’m pretty sure that’s how they made meth in Breaking Bad.

“ol mcdonald had a farm. e-i-e-i-OH SHI-” *boom*
More probable this is the planet the Dranglaex marked to show their strength.

This looks like a good read, imho.
