There are billions of stars, millions of planets, but there is only one man, Terrance McDoogal. Welcome to LIU Atlas.
LIU Atlas - Seorsus
The Ludgonian Industrial Union's galaxy contains billions of stars and billions of planets. Unfortunately, most residents of the LIU could only name a handful of these worlds. In order to improve astronomy grades across the LIU Galaxy, TV2 has started a new program called LIU Atlas. Follow our host, Terrance McDoogal, as he takes you on a tour across the LIU and some of its more obscure worlds.

Doog: “Welcome to another episode of LIU Atlas. I’m your host, Terrance “Doog” McDoogal. Today, we’re visiting one of the most remote planets in the Hyperplexity, Seorsus. Seorsus orbits the supergiant, Seorsum, a member of a quadruple star system. The gravitational anomalies produced by this star grouping make travel here really difficult. It takes almost a full week of sub-light travel and several small hyperspace jumps to reach this isolated world. The residents of Seorsus must be able to survive on their own – help is weeks away. Let’s head down and see how they do it.”
Doog: “Alright, I’ve been dropped off in the planet’s largest settlement, Kottai Depot. As you can see, I’m wearing a respirator. Seorsus has plenty of oxygen, but it is extremely dusty. Miniscule particulates of sand and rock are suspended in the atmosphere. That’s why the sky is so red. This reddish dust cloud can cause respiratory distress if inhaled, and I don’t want that. I probably should have worn even more protective gear – I don’t want this irritating dust anywhere on my body.”
Rencar: “Mr. McDoogal, welcome to Kottai Depot. I’m Lieutenant Governor Rencar. I’ll be showing you around Seorsus.”
Doog: “Call me Doog, Lieutenant. Speaking of Lieutenants, should I be saluting right now? I didn’t know this was a military outpost.”
Rencar: “There’s no need to salute. This isn’t a military depot, and I’m not a military officer. Lieutenant, in my case, means junior or second-in-command. I’m second to the System Governor.”
Doog: “That sounds important.”
Rencar: “It is, at least on Seorsus. Lieutenant Governors aren’t usually that important in other systems. It’s typically just a title. But here, it means a lot. Our isolation requires us to have clearly defined lines of succession. We can’t wait weeks for replacements. Someone has to be able to move up and take over vacant positions quickly.”
Doog: “Makes sense. I didn’t really even think about that.”
Rencar: “That’s just one of many issues that comes with our isolation. Most other worlds don’t have the problems that we deal with.”
Doog: “What’s some others?”
Doog: “Call me Doog, Lieutenant. Speaking of Lieutenants, should I be saluting right now? I didn’t know this was a military outpost.”
Rencar: “There’s no need to salute. This isn’t a military depot, and I’m not a military officer. Lieutenant, in my case, means junior or second-in-command. I’m second to the System Governor.”

Rencar: “That’s just one of many issues that comes with our isolation. Most other worlds don’t have the problems that we deal with.”
Doog: “What’s some others?”
Rencar: “Well, maintaining our food supply is a big issue. Resupply ships are rare. Imported food has to last for months, requiring us to ration between deliveries. To offset this difficulty, we try our best to grow some of our own food. There are greenhouses positioned throughout the depot.”
Doog: “Could you imagine not getting a delivery and…shudders… having to eat plants for weeks and weeks?”
Rencar: “I don’t have to imagine that. It’s happened before.”
Doog: “This place is terrible!”
Doog: “Could you imagine not getting a delivery and…shudders… having to eat plants for weeks and weeks?”
Rencar: “I don’t have to imagine that. It’s happened before.”
Doog: “This place is terrible!”
Rencar: “We must maintain a security force at all times.”
Doog: “To stop the vegetable riots?”
Rencar: “The what?”
Doog: “You know, when everyone goes mad from eating only plants for weeks.”
Rencar: “Not that specifically, but they do help maintain law and order. Their primary responsibility is to defend the depot.”
Doog: “Defend it from what?”
Rencar: “Pirates, marauders, and even the locals. Assistance is weeks away. If we ever came under attack, we’d have no help for a long time. We must be able to defend ourselves.”

Rencar: “Pirates, marauders, and even the locals. Assistance is weeks away. If we ever came under attack, we’d have no help for a long time. We must be able to defend ourselves.”
Rencar: “Energy is another issue. We only get fuel and energy imports a few times a year. We have to ration fuel and energy just like food. Solar-energy systems supplement our imported supply and insure we at least have some energy if imports cease.”
Doog: “So…I guess this isn’t a good time to ask if I can charge my phone…”
Rencar: “I’m afraid not.”
Doog: “Bummer.”
Rencar: “We also have to be able to repair any system that fails, so we have a full maintenance and engineering crew stationed here.”
Doog: “I see. Why go through all these hardships? What makes it worth the trouble?”
Rencar: “Follow me.”
Doog: “So…I guess this isn’t a good time to ask if I can charge my phone…”
Rencar: “I’m afraid not.”

Doog: “I see. Why go through all these hardships? What makes it worth the trouble?”
Rencar: “Follow me.”
Rencar: “Seorsus is loaded with a rare mineral that we call ‘euhedral coal’.”
Doog: “Eu-what?”
Rencar: “Euhedral coal, a crystalline compound of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. It’s the pink rocks on those mining carts. If it makes it any easier, we sometimes call it ‘fuki’.”
Doog: “Fuki?”
Rencar: “Yep, because it’s used to fuel Fusion kilns.”
Doog: “I’ve heard of fusion kilns before…I think.”
Rencar: “Nothing burns hotter than euhedral coal. It’s used in many of the LIU’s metallurgical industries and fuel cell factories.”
Doog: “Speaking of fusion kilns, have you ever eaten microwavable pizza rolls?”
Rencar: “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
Doog: “Oh, I forgot. You guys have limited food here. Well, they’re like mini-fusion kilns, and they fuki your mouth up every time you eat them.”
Rencar: “I feel like you’re doing some type of wordplay here, but I still have no idea what you’re talking about.”
Doog: “Eu-what?”
Rencar: “Euhedral coal, a crystalline compound of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. It’s the pink rocks on those mining carts. If it makes it any easier, we sometimes call it ‘fuki’.”

Rencar: “I feel like you’re doing some type of wordplay here, but I still have no idea what you’re talking about.”
Doog: “Is this fuki underground, below the depot?”
Rencar: “Euhedral coal is underground, but it’s not under the depot. Deposits of this rare resource are dispersed across the region, where an ancient forest once stood. Kottai Depot is central among these many deposits.”
Doog: “So, all the fuki from these deposits come here?”
Rencar: “Exactly. It’s transported here by track, and we ship it off-world every few months. Think of Kottai Depot as the regional mining hub.”

Rencar: “Automated carts transport fuki from the deposits to the depot. Some must cross vast distances.”
Doog: “How far are we talking?”
Rencar: “The farthest deposits are hundreds of kilometers away.”
Doog: “The miners at these deposits can’t rely on the depot then, can they?”
Rencar: “No, but they’re not alone. Our security forces are spread throughout the area. You’ll also notice security towers positioned around the region. We’ll see more as we leave the depot.”
Doog: “We’re venturing out of this joint?”
Rencar: “We have to if we want to see the mining operations.”

Doog: “We’re venturing out of this joint?”
Rencar: “We have to if we want to see the mining operations.”
Rencar: “Due to fuel rationing, we’ll have to walk.”
Doog: “I don’t like the sound of that.”
Rencar: “Relax. We’ll be fine. I’m bringing a security team with us - two security officers and a security-bot.”
Doog: “Oh, I wasn’t worried about my safety. I don’t like the walking part…too much exercise.”
Rencar: “Well, there’s nothing I can do about that. We won’t venture too far though. There’s a deposit a couple of miles from here.”
Doog: “Tell me you didn’t say miles with a ‘s’…”
Doog: “I don’t like the sound of that.”
Rencar: “Relax. We’ll be fine. I’m bringing a security team with us - two security officers and a security-bot.”

RUN2: “Lieutenant Governor, Robotic Unit Number 2 reporting for duty.”
Rencar: “R.U.N.2, our guest would like to visit one of our closest mining deposits. Lead the way.”
Doog: “Do we have to take the robot? I’m not a big fan of mechanicals, even ones aptly named Number 2.”
Rencar: “These plains are crawling with indigenous peoples, Doog. We don’t have any relationship with them. We’re not sure if they’re hostile or not. We do know that they have rudimentary weapons though. It’s safer with R.U.N.2.”
RUN2: “I possess a Rivlin Auto-Gun that’s accurate up to 1000 yards and can fire 600 rounds per minute. You’re safe with me.”
Doog: “Am I though? I rather risk the natives than deal with a robot.”
RUN2: “My advanced map processing software has discovered the shortest route to our destination. Follow me, and I’ll shorten the route by half a mile.”
Doog: “Appealing to my lazy-side, huh? I guess the robot isn’t that bad.”

Rencar: “Euhedral coal is a fossil fuel. It’s only formed when ancient plant matter is subjected to millions of years of heat and pressure.”
Doog: “So, fuki is not renewable?”
Rencar: “It is not. Deposits of euhedral coal are permanently depleted once we begin the extraction process. It didn’t make sense to build a depot over any particular deposit, because said deposit would be exhausted in a matter of time. Instead, it was placed in the region’s geographical center. In a few decades, Kottai Depot will be obsolete though, and we’ll have to relocate and rebuild in a new central position.”
Doog: “The nearest deposit is miles away. Maybe you should consider relocating even sooner.”
Rencar: “Nah. The auto-cart rail system has a pretty good range. Coal is still easy to transport between the mines and depot. The track system can be extended for hundreds of miles before it becomes too troublesome.”
Doog: “But these walks, though. I’m so…”
RUN2: “Not to interrupt our guest, but I detect motion in the plains below the steppe. Use caution.”

RUN2: “Not to interrupt our guest, but I detect motion in the plains below the steppe. Use caution.”
Doog: “Whoa, what are those?”
Rencar: “The sentient bipeds are the Seor. They’re the native race I mentioned earlier. Those big creatures are their livestock. We call them, Perikali.”
Doog: “Perikali?”
Rencar: “Yeah. From what we can tell, that’s what the natives call them.”
RUN2: “While my knowledge of their language is limited, I believe the natives are actually saying, ‘periya kalai’. It loosely translates to big animal or big bull.”
Doog: “No one asked for your input, robot. Can’t you turn this guy off, Lieutenant?”
Rencar: “Uh, sure. R.U.N.2 enter mute mode. Limit speech to emergency situations.”
RUN2: “Confirmed.”

RUN2: “Confirmed.”
Doog: “So, the locals eat these Perikali?”
Rencar: “We’re not sure. Due to resource constraints, we haven’t really studied the Seor. We sort of operate on the principle – if they don’t bother us, we don’t bother them.”
Doog: “How’s that working out?”
Rencar: “Not too bad. We occasionally have run-ins, but violence is usually limited. We try to give them space. The stuff we want is underground. They can keep the surface…well, outside of Kottai Depot.”
RUN2: “I’ve detected damage to company property. Protocol dictates that we investigate.”
Doog: “I thought you told him to shut up.”
Rencar: “Damage to company property is an emergency situation. My hands are tied. Let’s go.”

Rencar: “Not again.”
Doog: “What happened here? Are we at war with the natives!? Turn the bot back on! Save us!”
Rencar: “Settle down. It’s nothing like that. Looks like a Perikali walked through a section of track. I don’t think it was purposeful.”
RUN2: “I have targeted the offending creature and its master. Awaiting firing commands.”
Rencar: “No! Let’s not start trouble! Stand down!”
RUN2: “Confirmed. Standing down.”
Rencar: “This happens from time to time. I don’t think the locals do it on purpose. Our track is just in the way of their route. We’ll just dispatch a repair team. Let’s go.”

Rencar: “We need to establish relations with the natives to avoid these types of situations, but we don’t have the time or manpower to do it. It’s cheaper to make repairs than it is to befriend the Seor.”
Doog: “At least you didn’t have them murdered. Costing the LIU money usually means death.”
Rencar: “Murdering the natives might start a conflict that is more expensive than the replacement track. The LIU will understand.”
Doog: “At least you didn’t have them murdered. Costing the LIU money usually means death.”
Rencar: “Murdering the natives might start a conflict that is more expensive than the replacement track. The LIU will understand.”
Rencar: “Wow. That’s new.”
Doog: “What?”
Rencar: “The natives have a settlement close to this mine. I’ve never seen anything like this before. We assumed they were nomadic and followed their herds.”
Doog: “What?”
Rencar: “The natives have a settlement close to this mine. I’ve never seen anything like this before. We assumed they were nomadic and followed their herds.”
Doog: “What does that mean?”
Rencar: “It means we know even less about the natives than we thought.”
RUN2: “I estimate that we can expect further disruptions to mining operations if this settlement continues to grow. Authorize me to end this productivity threat.”
Rencar: “No! For the last time, we’re not starting a conflict. At least, not without the LIU’s permission. We might have to adjust our track system. Raise it or reroute it.”

Rencar: “While we’re here, we need to analyze what we can. I only see one structure on the surface, but there appears to be a tunnel leading underground. Are they tunneling into our mines? That won’t be good.”
Doog: “I don’t know about that, but I see some type of shrine. Is this a graveyard or something? Maybe the underground tunnel leads to a cemetery?”
Rencar: “It’s impossible to say without further studies. I wish we had the resources to figure this all out.”
Doog: “Want me to go down and talk to them? I have first contact experience.”
Rencar: “You do?”
Doog: “Technically yes, but I wasn’t very successful. Also, I might have run way. Now that I think about it, I might retract my offer. I’m not getting murdered by these guys. Not for free anyway.”
Rencar: “Well, I guess we’ll maintain the status quo for now. Maybe the LIU will budget more for xenological studies sometime down the road. These studies are getting more and more cost-effective as time goes on.”
Doog: “I don’t know about that, but I see some type of shrine. Is this a graveyard or something? Maybe the underground tunnel leads to a cemetery?”

Doog: “This is a mine entrance?”
Rencar: “Actually, it’s the mine’s maintenance entrance. It looks like R.U.N.2 was looking out for you. He knocked a half-mile off our journey by bringing us here.”
Doog: “I usually hate robots, but this guy gets me. Maybe mute mode was too much.”
Rencar: “Want me to reverse it?”
Doog: “I’m not saying that, but I wouldn’t mind keeping him around for a bit.”
Rencar: “Glad you said that. We’ll need to ditch our human escorts here. They need to get back to their posts at the depot. We’ll keep R.U.N.2, though.”

Doog: “Yikes. This descent is giving me freefall vibes in my stomach.”
Rencar: “Yeah, it’s quite the drop. The euhedral coal seams are at least 200 feet deep, if not more. At this depth, I think we’re safe from the locals. At least, I hope we are.”
Doog: “Maybe I’m right about the cemetery scenario. If I am, it’s doubtful they’d be this deep. Six feet under is the norm, right?”
Rencar: “We have no way of knowing. It’s a valid theory, but we don’t know if the Seor subscribe to our depth ideologies, or, if the Seor even bury their dead.”

Rencar: “You can definitely tell that this is a maintenance portal. There’s still mineral here. That means the extractors haven’t made their way here yet.”
Doog: “Can I hand-mine this stuff? I could make a few bucks while I’m here.”
Rencar: “You could, but taking the LIU’s minerals is basically theft.”
Doog: “Never mind. I’m not looking to get the death penalty for some coal.”
Doog: “Can I hand-mine this stuff? I could make a few bucks while I’m here.”
Rencar: “You could, but taking the LIU’s minerals is basically theft.”
Doog: “Never mind. I’m not looking to get the death penalty for some coal.”
Rencar: “And, here we go. This is an actual euhedral coal mine. Pretty standard stuff.”
Doog: “Mining mechs and tracks. Yep, pretty standard.”
Doog: “Mining mechs and tracks. Yep, pretty standard.”
Doog: “Anything else to add?”
Rencar: “No, I think that’s about it.”
Rencar: “No, I think that’s about it.”
Doog: “Well folks, that’s Seorsus. This remote world is home to the fossil fuel, fuki. Workers extract this resource so it can be used to power fusion kilns. The mining isn’t that difficult, but life here is hard. There’s little outside assistance. Food and fuel must be rationed. There are also some mysterious natives. What’s the deal with…”
RUN2: “Rencar! We need to evacuate!”
Rencar: “Doog! Follow me! R.U.N.2 will cover us!”
RUN2: “Rencar! We need to evacuate!”
Rencar: “Doog! Follow me! R.U.N.2 will cover us!”
Doog: “What’s happening!?”
RUN2: “We are being ambushed by a superior force. We won’t win this fight. Evacuate!”
Doog: “I’m freaking out! I’m too scared to run!”

Doog: “I surrender! I surrender! Do they understand me?”
RUN2: “We’ll find out in a few seconds….”
