Osey

The city of Osey is the remains of the crashed colony ship Odyssey. It is generally considered to be the center of the periphery. It is also home to the Colonial Cult.

It is situated just northwest of the eponymous Osey Mountain Range, and is in it's rain shadow.

History
The history of Osey began sometime after the ship deorbited and crashed in the desert. With none of its crew surviving and heavily damaged, it would lay there undisturbed until it was found by a group of Eridian nomads. Due to it's proximity to the planets equator, the wastelands these nomads inhabited was the least affected by the impact winter and thus saw almost no human activity. Even so, the Odyssey had been visible to the naked eye from the ground and when the eridians saw what they assumed to be a god laying dead, they flocked to it.

Memorial Drum Park
"'The more I think about It, the more sacred this place gets. We know this ship was constructed in the sky, and that they probably got almost all of their materials for it there, but not here. This place is unique. This is not just 'dirt'. This place *is* Earth.""."When the Odyssey impacted the surface, its habitation drum took critical damage and split along its long axis. No longer held in place by spin-gravity, its contents including one-and-a-half square kilometers of farming soil and enough water for a small lake would fall to one side, creating a small valley. The crack that formed in the drum allowed sunlight through, creating a unique ecosystem of a temperate climate. An oasis hidden in the desert.
