Have you ever been to our benighted world? Its name literally means 'night', but we do not dwell in darkness. Hell comes to our cities and our peoples, it visits upon the earth such ravages as to make the sky black as sackcloth and the ground spew red, molten death. It is not a hospitable world, this world, for monsters lurk in its fuliginous depths and death is but a slip away for the careless, the unwary or the simply ill-fortuned. It is not a populous world because much of it cannot be populated. The mountains are bleak, craggy places, their summits wreathed with poisonous fumes. The deserts are many, and they are desolate, unforgiving plains of ash. Our few rivers are veins of acid and alkali, tainted by the sulphurous earth. We have no forests, save for the petrified groves that lurk in the hot shadows of our tallest peaks. Our fauna takes to the air on leathern wing or hunts the dune with tusk and claw. It is serpentine and reptilian; chitinous and saurian. But it is home, this broken land, and we defend it with our blood and breath. Woe betide any who come here seeking to put it asunder. They will find it a terrible place, a very terrible place."

— Anonymous Nocturnean tribesman of Themis

end log.

 As Izuku and Vulcan have made their way to the planet with difficulty due volcanic activity of the planet sensor were mess up and the heat shield couldn't handle the planet temp causing the ship to look like a fire ball. Moment later they crash landed into a field just outside the of the settlement called Hesiod. 

A stranger came out of his home and safe the destroyed craft and begin making his way towards it searching for any survivors. once arriving at the craft, he sees a small boy and a very tall man coming out of it with some scratches.

???: Hello, are you two oks, do you need any assistance.

Vulcan: hello and thank you but i believe we are both ok, my name is Vulcan -looks at Izuku just shaking the dust and the little number of ashes on him- and this is my little brother Izuku.

Izuku: hello good sir -bows to show respect- we apologize for any trouble we may have because we will clean up the mess.

???: Oh no harm down young wyrmling i saw the ship coming down luckily it didn't land in the settlement. oh, let me introduce myself. 

 N'bel: I'm N'bel a black-smiter for our settlement or in easier team a metal worker. i have the responsibility of the forge in our settlement, please come with me to my home for some shelter.

Vulcan and Izuku: thank you for your generosity.

N'bel begins leading them to his home making sure they don't get hurt along the way tells them the history of the planet and how the inhabitants are surviving during the changes of weather and climate. As they arrive in his home the settlers look at both Vulcan and Izuku a little boy ball slips out his hands and went towards them. The child scare of the two was surprised to see Izuku pick the ball up and hand it to him.

Izuku: hi I believe this belongs to you be careful now ok.

Izuku then walks into the home of N'bel after helping the child and sits next to his brother Vulcan to learn more about the planet. N'bel begins to talk to them learning where they came from, why they came here and let's just say he was shocked by it, but he believes it will be a good thing for the planet. Izuku being the child he is was thankful that he got the tablet from Malcador because he started writing everything down fast for his own studies and log. both N'bel and Vulcan look at Izuku as he looks up and cover his face in embarrassment while the two laugh.
