Susur Secundi, called Anuki or "the growler" by the Kav, is the closest planet to the supervoid Sothera in the Edge. It is colonized by the Monoists.[1]
Description
Terrestrial Susur Secundi is a dark, eerie world crisscrossed by labyrinths and monumental rock formations that appear shaped by some long-dead civilization.[2] There are too many straight lines to be natural. The world is bare, dark stone, with a thin atmosphere that leaves its surface largely open to the ravages of the Edge. It orbits Sothera at roughly 120 kilometers per second. [a]
The planet's surface is barren but for craters, ejecta, ruined labyrinths, and veins of high-albedo minerals.[2] Monitoring stations, observation blisters, and flight-command towers dot the surface, with dozens present in each hemisphere to give the Monoists a clear and redundant view of the surface of the world and Sothera above. The main strength of the Monoist population in Sothera lives underground, throughout newly excavated subterranean tunnels and in converted and expanded tunnels dug by the first Kav missions to the world. Though there are vast underground labyrinths and structures below Susur Secundi's surface, the Monoists do not live in them: these cavities are instead regarded as holy sites, evidence of the Immortal Faller's designs, and are reserved for study and used as places of worship and contemplation. Few non-Monoists are allowed to land on Susur Secundi, though many neutral-ground stations orbit the world, such as water-ice dealerships, various neutral-party monitoring and comms stations, and quarantine stations.
History
The Kav of Kavaron knew the world as "Anuki" and had previously targeted it for exploration during their first forays into the Edge centuries ago; they found it thick with common minerals and not worth exploiting.[2] After Pinnacle opened the Sothera system to the rest of the Edge, the Monoists came to Anuki, drawn at first by its proximity to Sothera. Upon surveying the world and discovering its labyrinths, monumental columns, and gravitational tides that conformed to existing hymns and scripture, they were elated and moved to claim the planet for themselves.[4] The Kav did not contest their claim.
It has been decades since the Monoists settled Anuki and renamed it "Susur Secundi" after the capital of their order, the great monastery at the Lip of Susur.[2] This is intended to be a great honor and signify the importance of the Sotheran supervoid, the thousandth supervoid claimed by the Monoists since the founding of their order. It is only fitting, then, that the world nearest the dying star carries a diminutive honorific, has a monastery constructed throughout its great subterranean chambers, and becomes the main staging ground for Monoists in the Sothera system to advance their project.[2] Monoists dig mines on Susur Secundi to feed Monastery Singul, the growing monastery orbiting the planet. Some of this work is done by mechans.
Known locations
- Monastery Singul, a monastery under construction in orbit above the planet.[1] Was fired upon by Dawnsire after a Monoist strike on the spacecraft.[3]
