Anvil Gate did not start out as was intended.
It is all that survived from the Commercial Fleet Vessel the Marco Polo when it crashed onto the planet’s surface.
The Marco Polo was actually carrying colonists bound for Kometenmelodie along with all the supplies needed to start a small settlement, however it did not enter the atmosphere correctly and burnt up, most of the passengers and supplies were lost.
The only ones to survive were those that managed to escape in the emergency life rafts.
The number of survivors was small, around 40 in total.
The survivors made it to their chosen planet, but in much worse shape than intended.
However they are a stoic bunch and made the best of it.
The habitation units are actually their life rafts and the settlement walls are made from the reinforced hull plating they managed to recover.
The inhabitants harvest the valuable seeds of the Deema plants.
They trade this with an off world merchant ship that arrives every 4 months for day to day supplies.
It is so named as it sits in at the gateway into the Anvil Mountains.
