A non-industrial world located in the Glisten Subsector of the Spinward Marches.
The whole population of Lydia live in a single natural cavern, surviving on hand-made life support machinery. The largest living thing on the surface is the Akenplant, a cactus like growth surviving on the surface. The roots of the Akenplant can split rocks to enable the plant to survive in unlikely places, a trait exploited by the locals.
TL–6 is barely sufficient to maintain the colony domes in the trace atmosphere. Formerly a mining colony founded to exploit massive quantities of silver, it has been on the decline since the silver gave out around 1020. ConTech closed the starport in 1035, and most of the population emigrated. The remainder are expert garbage pickers--a fair amount of useful salvage at TL–12 remains from the mining operation, enough that free traders occasionally call to pick up the junk.
