Tau Cygna Five Colony
Local Civilian Governance and Territorial Stakeholder with Diplomatic ImplicationsDescription
A human colonial settlement led by Gosheven that asserts ancestral ownership and refuses enforced evacuation. The community relies on town meetings and centralized elder authority, yet exhibits fissures as lieutenants Haritath and Kentor waver and Ard'rian conspires with outsiders to organize a covert evacuation. The colony operates as a local civic body and contested territorial stakeholder whose fate becomes entangled in a high-stakes legal and diplomatic dispute between the Federation (Enterprise officers) and the Sheliak.
