Sun

Rising

A cold grey light slowly lays bare the landscape about you as the sun rises, hidden behind heavy clouds.
A cloud-ridden sky hides all but the faintest hint of the rising sun. Dim grey light devoid of color or warmth creeps across the land, diluting the dark but not quite chasing it away.

The sun nears the far horizon as the clear blue sky deepens into a rich indigo.
The sun sinks below the horizon, turning the clear sky a thousand shades of ever-deepening blue as the day fades into night.
The sun vanishes behind a multicolored splendor of clouds as night slowly drapes its starry banner across the skies.

Muspar'i

Feathery streamers of high gossamer clouds race swiftly towards the horizon, fleeing the stern gaze of the sun.
The dusky gold image of the sun seems a watery mirage as it wavers in shimmering ripples of heat reflected from the ground.
A dazzling sapphire sky frames the blazing jewel of the golden sun.
The blazing sun turns crystalline skies incandescent with shimmering bands of translucent heat.
The unbroken expanse of azure sky allows no relief from the torrid touch of the burning sun.
The fitful wind smudges the sky in a rainbow of prismatic colors almost obscuring the sun in a cloak of dust and sand.
A few determined sunbeams flicker through the pervasive haze, of the dusty air.
Swirled sand dances to the wild melody of the wind under the blazing bronze heat of the obscured sun.
Delicate tracings of dust swirls streak the harsh blue sky, softening the edges of the sun's glare.
A faint dust veil shrouds the sun in a hazy glow, intensifying the sweltering heat.
