Garudra (draft)

Garudra, aka Pilgrim's Rest, is a gas giant and the largest planet in the Benilli system by an order of magnitude. It has a dozen satellites, six of which are large enough to have been officially classified as moons: Mercus, Chatri, Aswini, Stitas, Morsa, and Subris.

The planet is composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, making it fairly unremarkable and of little value. Nevertheless, the ACRE-owned Johnstown Mine Project has managed to make profit off harvesting the hydrogen and helium for refinement into spaceship fuel.

The Loon 9 research base in orbit over Chatri is supposedly engaged in fairly boring atmospheric and astronomical observations. Through rumors say that this is nothing but a cover for something altogether more nefarious.

Johnstown Mine Project
The Johnstown mine project is officially run by ACRE, but in practice it is more like a commune run by an off-shoot of the Devotees of the Good Work. Its leader, Reverend Director Alex Versemann, keeps both ACRE and CHR inspections of his back via liberal profit margins and church dues.

Meanwhile, dark rumors say that Rev. Director Versemann is running a sham, convincing his flock to work themselves to death on the promise of godly rewards when the only one who is rewarded is the Rev. Director himself. Any who voice dissent are 'promoted' off the project, and never heard from again.
