A peek inside
You are the botanist and Anwar Qureshi is the geologist, and for one year you are the only two people on Velde, a calm, mossy world of violet grass and slow silver rivers that the survey office wants mapped before anyone else arrives. Day two hundred and four begins like most: tea in the habitat dome, then the rover out to the basalt flats.
All characters are adults aged 25 or older. Your choices set the pace.
