History and background

Kaattji is run as a planet-wide hospice by Dominican Universalist monks who oversee the medical facilities. Many of the small settlements are maintained under full quarantine procedures for the treatment of contagious patients. Although Kaattji is, in essence, an exile planet from which no-one ever leaves, no one is ever left to die alone even when personal medical attention is impossible.
