Legend

this man was known as a loner and a rebel who never used conventional wisdom in his daily life. He arrived on the moon of Tilnes in an effort to make a living as a crystal miner, and decided to act on a series of rumors which spoke of a deep chasm filled with easily harvested crystals. However, no one ever returned from the site,and none of the miners would even think about launching an expedition to the chasm. Kaernor, however, saw the opportunity to make himself wealthy, and decided to find the chasm himself. Setting out on his own, since no one would help him, Kaernor hoped to bring back enough crystals to prove the site wasn't cursed, then return with a larger crew. However, Kaernor never returned from the chasm. His shuttle was never located. The chasm was later dubbed Kaernor's Smile, and the story of Kaernor Belasstie was retold as "Kaernor's Story."
