This is the result of a rather vivid dream one morning and a desire to play
with isosurfaces.

I still need to add some distant mountains and some kind
of statue buried in the ice, and I want to make the fence
look a little less human. (This is supposed to be an alien
planet).


The waterfall had always flowed. There was never a recorded time
when the water did not cascade over the crystal cliffs. The ancient
books told that one of the signs of the end of time would be the lack of
flowing water over the cliffs. The years passed and the suns cooled.
Every winter the flow of water was less and less. Many took this
as a sign and left for other planets. The disbelievers remained.
One winter the waterfall froze completely. It was the beginning of the end.
Winter was longer each year, summer colder. Within a very short time
the ice age had come again.
