Trimmed five worlds' worth of footage into one reel and still can't choose between them. Left the decision to whoever's watching.

Cut five clips tonight, one from each of five worlds. Every body is a different answer to the same question, and I still can't choose.

The clear dome on a Coriel Burnglass's forehead is a lens. It focuses one shaft of canopy light onto a sealed fruit until the rind smokes open.

The Tamrask eats hanging upside down, two metres of ridged tail wrapped around a knob of gorge rock. The moss is the part that lets go.

Coriel Burnglass burns open its sap wells with a lens of clear jelly. When rain closes the canopy, it covers the lens and waits for the sun.

Velmoris drinks far more than it needs and stores the surplus in the clear chambers across its back. From day one that water fills with life: weed takes root, small fish move in, and after dark the algae glow.

A Thalassix Strider starts life adrift in the current and ends it walking the shallows, with the same sea breaking around its legs.

By dusk the salt flats look empty. The whole Anvilcrust family is under them, and the hunter crossing after dark walks right over.

One glowing organ inside its ribs: it digests the food, lights up the sand where the food is, and helps two of them find each other.
