Legend

this moon, the only satellite in orbit around the planet Almas, was one of the most popular tourist worlds of the Mid Rim. Once an inner planet of the Cularin System, Dorumaa was knocked out of its orbit by a massive impact. The impact pushed Dorumaa into Almas' gravity well, and its surface was literally flash-frozen as it moved into its new location. The frozen world was thawed out by terraformers of the Dorumaa Investment Group, who recognized the moon's potential and believed that there was no life left on the moon. Unknown to DIG, a variety of eggs and spores were also frozen, and began to revive as the moon warmed up. While the "rebirth" of the moon has been used as a marketing tool, many investors worry that some terrible creature has been released into the seas.
