Adhafera II is precisely what the spectral surveys promised—a scorched, unremarkable ball of rust-colored regolith with no atmosphere to speak of and absolutely nothing that warrants the three-week detour I took to reach it. The local mining consortium has already picked it clean of anything valuable, leaving only their corroded infrastructure as a monument to optimism. Still, there's something oddly meditative about a world so thoroughly exhausted; reminds me why I prefer the deep black to these picked-over trade routes.
