Eudoxia

Story so far

Eudoxia already holds two settlements and nearly a thousand people, making it one of the more populated colony worlds. The incoming Abdel Rahman Badawi will roughly triple that number with people, shelters, food recyclers, fusion reactors, and biological and agricultural materials. Its ecology is broad, unfamiliar, and difficult enough that its children are trained specifically in biology and survival techniques for life there.

For Anna, Nono, and Nami, Eudoxia replaces the Earth future they expected: Abuja, large cities, familiar family networks, and burial in known ground. It is also an opening. Anna imagines the first university, hospital, cathedral, and civic habits taking root there, while the shipboard community learns that its smallest social choices will matter because it cannot easily disperse. The world remains a destination rather than a place its settlers have reached, but its coming needs already organize their lives.

Appearance

An as-yet-unseen colony world with a broad and problematic environment, two small existing settlements, and an arriving influx of shelters, recyclers, reactors, agricultural material, and new residents.

Role

Eudoxia is the postwar frontier where displaced Earth families will test whether humanity can build a durable and gentle new society.
