The dust storms on Almach II are relentless—I've been through worse, but not by much—yet beneath that rust-colored hell lies something that made the tedium worthwhile: vast deposits of crystalline silicate formations that catch the light in ways I haven't seen since the Kepler Expanse, back when I still believed every world had something to teach me. The geological layering suggests ancient water, and where there was water, there might have been *something*, though the readings confirm only the usual arid desolation now. Still, I've flagged the formations for the xenogeologists; sometimes the most mundane rocks hold the most interesting histories if you know how to read them.
