Neweverton's outer ring nearly blew open — the engineer who caught it hasn't slept since.
Neweverton drinks from its own disasters — a crashed parasol-drone still hangs overhead, its wreckage rerouted into the rain-catcher plumbing nobody asked for but everyone now depends on.
Siliandra cracked open Neweverton's first landing pad and walked off with a jury-rigged rain-catcher and a boot cache nobody remembered burying, leaving a fresh drip-mark on the colony. Meanwhile, an engineer patched a hull breach seconds before it went catastrophic — and hasn't slept since.
Long before the current chapter, a drifter wandered through camp, traded stories with Ven beside the fires long into the night, and slipped away before sunrise, leaving embers and unfinished rumors.
Days later, a dark mood crept over the settlement; Dr. Sable Iriyama withdrew to camp's edges, watching the horizon rather than her usual instruments, saying little.
Then the sky itself left a scar — a wrecked parasol-drone crashed and lodged overhead, permanently marking Neweverton's silhouette against the blue, impossible to ignore, impossible to remove.
This week, a visiting scavenger dug up the original landing pad, hauling off a jury-rigged rain-catcher and a forgotten boot cache — while an engineer sealed a hull breach just in time, and still hasn't slept since.
