Description
"In the years that followed the crash-landing of the passenger freighter on this alien world,the survivors began to explore their new home,the knowledge that they may never be found always in their minds.The planet,it was discovered,offered many surprising comforts...underground geothermal springs capable of supplying power and heat,fresh water from mountain streams,and fertile valleys in which to plant crops.With cautious trepidation,native plants and animals were sampled to ensure their potential as food sources,with one plant being a source of a sticky substance that actually burned for long periods of time and thus became lamp fuel.
As time progressed,small settlements arose,with dwellings fashioned from quarried rock and salvaged metal from the liner wreck.Pioneers set out to discover new areas to settle,and villages distinguished by many forms of interplanetary building designs soon dotted the landscape."
