Entry point 1
NPCThis lone mountain chain is composed entirely of a mineral with a shiny, mirror-like surface. The mineral itself has no particular value for production, but its properties make this place incredibly beautiful. The sky is brilliantly reflected in the many surfaces of the plateaus, oddly shaped rocks, stone arches, and columns. The view is especially stunning on clear starry nights, or when aurora trails dance in the sky. The enraptured crew have asked the Lord Captain's permission to visit this remarkable place.
YOUGrant shore leave.
NPCThe shore leave passed without incident, and the ship's officers talked about it for weeks afterward. The place made a particular impression on Lady Heydari, and she could be heard saying over and over, "This would make a fine spot for a palace!" and "Pity you can't bring highborns here on tours..."

Lady Cassia spent a great deal of time in the mirror mountains — one cannot say whether it was in awe or contemplation. Upon her return to the ship, she spent several days in her quarters in front of her easel... but the canvas remained unmarked.
NPCThe shore leave passed without incident, and the ship's officers talked about it for weeks afterward. Even the xenos Yrliet marvelled at the rock columns sprinkled with reflected stars. She even deigned to speak to the other officers, telling them the place reminded her of Crudarach, her homeworld.

She thanked the Domin for the opportunity to see incredible places so different from the darkness of the lower decks.
NPCThe shore leave passed without incident, and the ship's officers talked about it for weeks afterward. Proctor Anthar went for a short training session with his faithful cyber-mastiff and was satisfied with the results. However, according to eyewitnesses, the training session was rather strange — the Arbitrator simply sat on the edge of the mirrored plateau next to his dog, silently staring into the distance.
NPCThe shore leave passed without incident, and the ship's officers talked about it for weeks afterward. As for the Lord Captain, his/her dreams were haunted by strange creatures that watched the expedition from the other side of the mirror mountains.
YOUDeny shore leave. There is no time for such frivolous and potentially dangerous activities.
