Planet factory, you say? Do they do custom jobs like Magrathea? I'll have one made entirely of spongecake!

They do do custom jobs, but all of the continents have fjords.

Gives them a lovely baroque feel.

As a Dane, I'm very much used to fjords anyway, so no problem if my spongecake planet has a bunch of them ๐Ÿ˜
