New Ceres Issue 1

By Alisa Krasnostein

Meet the world of New Ceres, an exciting and dangerous place. Its water is green and its inhabitants are sophisticates.

New Ceres is precarious: its New Enlightenment constrains society as well as liberating old thoughts and literature and drinking customs. The planet plays interstellar politics to defend its independence and it recruits refugees from Old Earth and the conquered New Alliance planets to maintain some dangerous habits. On New Ceres you will find coffee houses and highwaymen, drinks, gambling and illegal high technology.
