	The industrial heart of the [[~~Izweski Hegemony~~]], '''Tret''' is a planet in the [[Uueoa-Esa]] system that resembles a gigantic factory due to Vaurca intervention. It is entirely encased in machinery, appearing more like an artificial structure due to its fuming hardware. The production capabilities of the planet have been essential for the Unathi race in their recently-entered Bluespace Age. It also serves as the capital of the [[Vaurca Hives#K'lax\|K’lax Hive]], ruled by [[Zkaii, The Sleepwalker\|Overlord Zkaii]]. Although Vaurcae are the main sapients on the planet, Tret is sometimes considered the "third colony" by [[Unathi\|Moghesian Unathi]].

	In the early [[Unathi History#The Third Hegemony\|Third Hegemony]], when scientists began to dream about yet-distant space colonization, Ouerea became the obvious candidate due to its similarities to Moghes. As a result, further investigation of Tret became scarce beyond scientific curiosity, as it was considerably less attractive than the habitable Ouerea. Prior to the [[Contact War]], an exploratory probe was sent to Tret, and although the machine never returned to Moghes, valuable information was gathered during its active period. Upon review, the Unathi researchers discovered Tret possessed a surface rich in metal and ore. Following the Contact War, [[Hephaestus Industries]] became interested in mining Tret’s abundant resources. The planet was leased, with formal operations beginning in 2453 however, the underdeveloped Unathite infrastructure led to a slow expansion on the surface of the planet. Hephaestus established a shipping shuttle and introduced automated mining, while a permanent station was erected near the planet but it struggled to break even economically.

	Controversially, ~~Hegemon~~ Not’zar Izweski granted Tret to the K’lax Hive in 2459. Despite the emerging conflict of interests, the Hive and the megacorporation reached an agreement known as the '''Ksyne’kizar Economic Treaty'''. Today, while most of the current Tret infrastructure is built and operated by the K’lax Hive, they have gains of roughly 17 percent due to reinvestments in growing the planet's facilities. Many believe it is Hephaestus and the ~~Hegemony~~ that truly benefit the most from the treaty, both of whom get a large portion of the profit. The ~~Hegemony~~ receives these credits in tithe and Hephaestus in both support costs and exuberant transport fees in exchange for providing freighters with which to move the manufactured goods out to the Spur.

	The large, malleable facilities on Tret allow for the colossal factory to have one of the highest gross domestic products in the Orion Spur. Nevertheless, due to the nature of the Ksyne’kizar Economic Treaty, profits are mainly enjoyed by [[Hephaestus Industries]] and the [[~~Izweski Hegemony~~]], not the K’lax Hive. As a result, the performance of what could be the most stable Vaurcae economy is dwarfed by the other Hives, which have reached a more qualitative agreement with third parties.

	Tret is one of the largest exporters in the galaxy. The K’lax Hive is often required to aggressively increase its position as a primary manufacturer in order to keep Tret sustainable. As a result, Tret labour is inexpensive, which is an invitation for foreign states to use the planet’s industry instead of their local facilities. The cheapness of many Tret-made products has gained a bad reputation across the Spur, with the phrase "made in Tret" used as a pejorative for low quality.

	Tret's massive industrial output is primarily in ore, refined materials, and—more recently—miscellaneous goods ranging from spare parts and pharmaceuticals to tools for the ~~[[Unathi Military Structure\|Hegemony navy]]~~, terraforming equipment, and even canned foodstuffs to be shipped to [[Moghes]] or beyond. The production of these goods is massively sped up by the presence of Uta'ka'yat, or All-Factories—not unlike the ones later created on [[Xakt, Queen of Corpses#Her Brood\|Luthien by the Zo'ra Hive]]—which are extremely adaptable facilities capable of producing masses of goods very easily, limited only by size.

	The most noticeable difference between an all-factory and a traditional super factory is not production speed but rather that they can be re-tooled almost instantly to fulfill orders, with one factory capable of swapping from making canned food to producing consumer electronics in a matter of minutes, depending on how the demand and supply change. On Sedantis, this feature was essential considering the often very limited space that would be used by setting up multiple factories to produce items. This has resulted in what many outsiders view as a chaotic production environment, with only Bound Vaurcae, specifically created for the job, said to be able to keep tabs on exactly what is being produced at any given time. Hephaestus workers trying to keep track are often bamboozled as graphs and charts have massive changes right in front of their eyes, and freighter crews are given last-minute instructions to pick up completely different cargo than what they came for, although only very rarely does this apparent disorganisation lead to problems. Due to the K'lax Hive having no vessels of its own, these same freighter crews allow the ~~Hegemony~~ and the corporation to exercise greater economic control over the planet.

	While the Hive may produce as many goods as it desires, if only a certain amount is shipped, no credits will be made from the end product. As such, these two parties can often gain a far greater cut than they otherwise would in artificially expensive transport fees caused by "dangerous conditions." Seeing as the alternative is not being able to get exports off-world, the Hive has seemingly accepted this as a way of doing business, exploitative though it may be.

	The majority of facilities on the surface, and in many cases below it, are staffed by thousands of Bound Vaurcae who perform the same simple tasks on a daily basis. When this would be impractical, or a task requires more free thought, K'lax, and sometimes even Unathi or Human workers, are used. Hephaestus is well aware of the risk and poor conditions associated with the planet for these staff and offers generous pay, good injury compensation plans, healthcare, and typically short contracts, allowing them to work for a handful of months before shifting elsewhere. These workers are primarily used for staffing facilities during a Bound shortage, excavating mining equipment that has collapsed, transporting freight, tracking down transports that failed to arrive on time, or staffing the Neutron Forge and associated super factory in orbit.

	All of this comes together to make Tret the industrial heart of the ~~Hegemony~~, producing both a grand amount of credits and supporting further K'lax technological production. More recently, the planet, which typically exported much more to the wider Spur, has turned towards supporting Moghes as the phoron crisis deepens.

Line 51:		Line 50:
	Originally used on Sedantis as a critical way of producing resources that could not be harvested efficiently from the crust of the planet or mass-produced through other methods within the confined caves, the Neutron Forge is capable of disassembling phoron and reconstructing it on a molecular level into other objects, often in a stronger form than traditional refining. Unfortunately, despite [[Vetju, Iron Queen\|Vetju’s]] and her Workers' best efforts, the original designs are currently unfeasible to create due to the incredible cost of both constructing and maintaining them. Unwilling and unable to divert so much work away from ensuring the survival of her brood, this new version of the Neutron Forge is only capable of producing raw resources and consumes an astronomical amount of phoron. In spite of this, both Hephaestus and the K’lax Hive considered its launch a success worthy of celebration, helping further tighten the bonds between the two.

In spite of this, both Hephaestus and the K’lax Hive considered its launch a success worthy of celebration, helping further tighten the bonds between the two.

	The manufactory is staffed by a large group of both Vaurcae and Unathi who work tirelessly to maintain the forge, supply it with phoron, refine the resources that come from within it, and transport them to their destinations, typically other Hephaestus’ facilities within the ~~Hegemony~~ and beyond. The forge ran without ceasing until 2463, when it began to feel the effects of the Phoron crisis. Many of the factory’s employees were laid off within the first few months of the crisis, and more redundancies are expected as phoron becomes scarce. Despite this, it is producing nearly a fifth of the Spur’s plasteel and borosilicate glass, materials that are typically difficult to create in such large quantities.

	==Life on Tret==		==Life on Tret==
	Life on Tret is difficult. The poor conditions and long shifts have drastically reduced Bound Vaurcae’s life expectancy. Once considered some of the best-maintained members of the species, Tretian Bound live up to ten months due to their hazardous environment. More often than not, Workers repeat the same menial tasks without any respite until they drop dead. Although Vaurcae do not require many luxuries, the living sectors are considered unhygienic and breeding grounds for malaise and social disruption. K’lax Queens, wishing to prevent a situation similar to Mendell City’s [[Flagsdale]], have set up the living camps as temporary facilities, disarmed them periodically, and relocated all of their members. Resettlement often attempts to keep hive-cells together, but members may be separated if the Hive deems it necessary.		Life on Tret is difficult.

	===Transportation===		===Transportation===
	A logistical issue the K'lax Hive had to resolve when colonisation of the planet truly got under way was how best to manage the movement of sapients across what would become the winding factory surface. While shuttles appeared to be the obvious choice for many K'lax and Hephaestus employees, simulations revealed that the amount required would only add to the already congested skies. K'~~laxian~~ engineers proposed many solutions, but the one that gained the most steam was the "Tyik'Opakt," or "Vacuum Train System." Not unlike similar human designs, the train uses magnetic levitation inside vacuum tunnels to accelerate to extremely high speeds, so much so that it can cross the entire surface of Tret in a little over an hour.

Not unlike similar human designs, the train uses magnetic levitation inside vacuum tunnels to accelerate to extremely high speeds, so much so that it can cross the entire surface of Tret in a little over an hour.

	Several years after first being proposed, vacuum trains are now the most prevalent form of transportation on the planet. Train lines and their tunnels create an ever-expanding criss-cross on maps, moving alongside and over one another in a complicated pattern, and transport not only takes workers from one location to another but is the backbone of moving supplies to and from spaceports to be picked up and utilised or transported off-world by Hephaestus freighters. Many of these trains are crowded and illuminated with dim light, if any, and created primarily for usage by the Vaurca majority of the planet, who prefer such conditions, but a few do exist that provide more amicable conditions for the other sentients that inhabit the planet.

	===Power===		===Power===
	Experts determined early in its colonisation by the K'lax Hive that Tret would be extremely power-hungry. While some of this initial energy could come from existing Hephaestus infrastructure and an abundance of solar panels coating buildings, a more permanent solution would need to be devised before long as factories swelled in size and the barren rock was industrialized. This solution would come in the form of "Tyu'kata," or "Radiant-energy spires," which are large, towering structures that dominate the nearby cityscapes. These contraptions work by capturing bursts of gamma radiation emitting from the local star and turning it into energy at an extremely efficient rate, which is enough to sate the energy appetites of the rapidly growing web of machines. This general idea was originally implemented by a K'~~laxian~~ engineer on Sedantis, who suggested striking such towers up through the roof of the caverns to the radioactive surface, which was employed with much success. The modern version of Tret is considered an iteration of these original designs.		Experts determined early in its colonisation by the K'lax Hive that Tret would be extremely power-hungry.

	The Industrial Shipping Center is Tret’s primary port. The facilities also include domestic warehouses, where goods are stored before shipping. In order to maintain the quality of many products, the Industrial Shipping Center maintains an environment free of the planet’s notable pollution. Nevertheless, pressure conditions are similar to space—tolerable for Vaurca Workers but demanding a voidsuit for the occasional Unathi laborer. While Warriors are employed to patrol the site, the amount of imported and exported cargo exceeds the capabilities of Vaurca surveillance. Thus, the Industrial Shipping Center has gained the reputation of a freeport. This fame has made the port vulnerable to space piracy, particularly from the Sinta and Queenless Vaurcae groups.

	Located on the southern pole of the planet, the Impact Site is the location where the K’lax Hiveship originally touched down. Upon contact with the ice sheet, the fiery landing meant that much of the ship’s body sank, rapidly creating a lake of molten lead. The K’lax Hive believed this situation to be a boon, and since then, Queen Vetju took advantage to begin an aggressive process of industrialization. Although not much time has passed since the event, the Kloz’xera Impact Site no longer resembles its primitive state. Instead, it was quickly transformed into the primordial foundry, upon which all infrastructure was built. Since early 2461, the workshop has been closed. Currently, specialized teams are responsible for salvaging the interiors of the Hiveship. It is considered a complicated process, as debris and brimstone make the abandoned ship difficult to traverse. Though it remains a rumor, it is said that Queen Leto is interested in turning the Impact Site into a museum.

The infrastructure for the farm has improved over the past few years, with more safety measures to ensure no K’ois spread beyond the field. Nonetheless, breaches still exist, which endanger cargo and passing ships.

	The term Lii’kana is usually translated as "Hell." Although Vaurcae lacked the religious concept of eternal fiery damnation, the term has been used metaphorically since the [[The Great Hive War#The Battle of the Ryitu'kya Abyss\|sinking of Illau’tia]] to refer to the Lii’dra’s capital. In the context of Tret, Lii’kana, or Hell, refers to the deepest forge of the planet. Due to its significance in the production process, it is also considered the heart of Tret. However, despite its importance, Lii’kana has a bad reputation for being the most brutal area on the planet. Here, only advanced engineered bioforms can survive. As all workers in Lii’kana are Bound Vaurcae, the Unbound and other sophonts often speculate as to how the facility actually looks. The reported high temperatures, the colossal quantities of refined metals, and the short lifespans of its workers all suggest that Hell is an apt name for this workshop.

	Unlike other areas on the planet, Tret’s primary crater was domed and better preserved for historical purposes. Hephaestus Industries originally selected Ksyne’kizar to build an amenity surface base, much like the lunar cities in the Sol system. The project was halted in 2459 with little infrastructure prepared—nothing much beyond a local gravity generator, oxygen systems, and a reinforced borosilicate dome. Since the arrival of the K’lax Hive, Ksyne’kizar has been chosen as the de facto capital. Nonetheless, preparing the rest of the planet’s infrastructure was a more pressing issue, and the crater remained undeveloped beyond the Royal Chambers. After the unveiling of the Zo’rane city of New Sedantis in late 2463, the K’lax Hive placed more effort into creating its own cosmopolitan capital, a strange sight amidst the planet's sprawling industrial maze.

	Before the K’lax arrival, Tret was characterized as a barren, lifeless rock. Due to its unique orbit, most of the planet receives heavy radiation from Uueoa-Esa, the system’s star. The poles are permanently in darkness and have a very different temperature than the rest of the planet. On these poles, the only water deposits on the planet were found completely frozen. While these factors were significant for the small-scale operations on the planet’s surface, the complete transformation of Tret by the K’lax Hive has deemed them irrelevant. Today, no areas of the surface are visible to the naked eye. Instead, narrow metal passages, many poorly lit, connect the megastructure’s sectors.

Today, no areas of the surface are visible to the naked eye. Instead, narrow metal passages, many poorly lit, connect the megastructure’s sectors in a cubical shape.

	Tret's interior varies depending on the sector. Most of them are used for industrial purposes, while some were adapted for living. Only a few areas of the planet are equipped with oxygen, known as "Oasis bubbles" by the unfortunate Unathi and human workers. By far the most hostile areas of Tret are the giant forgeries, with only a few specialized Bioforms able to tolerate the extreme heat. The outside areas of Tret’s machinery are covered entirely by solar panels. These panels serve as an auxiliary power source, and the reflective nature of them makes Tret appear as a radiant star in the Moghesian sky. During some seasons on Moghes, nights have become shorter as Tret’s brightness impedes the dusk.		Tret's interior varies depending on the sector.

	In the early [[Unathi History#The Third Hegemony\|Third Hegemony]], when scientists began to dream about yet-distant space colonization, Ouerea became the obvious candidate due to its similarities to Moghes. As a result, further investigation of Tret became scarce beyond scientific curiosity, as it was considerably less attractive than the habitable Ouerea. Prior to the [[Contact War]], an exploratory probe was sent to Tret, and although the machine never returned to Moghes, valuable information was gathered during its active period. Upon review, the Unathi researchers discovered Tret possessed a surface rich in metal and ore. Following the Contact War, [[Hephaestus Industries]] became interested in mining Tret’s abundant resources. The planet was leased, with formal operations beginning in 2453 however, the underdeveloped Unathite infrastructure led to a slow expansion on the surface of the planet. Hephaestus established a shipping shuttle and introduced automated mining, while a permanent station was erected near the planet but it struggled to break even economically.

	Controversially, Hegemon Not’zar Izweski granted Tret to the K’lax Hive in 2459. Despite the emerging conflict of interests, the Hive and the megacorporation reached an agreement known as the Ksyne’kizar Economic Treaty. Today, while most of the current Tret infrastructure is built and operated by the K’lax Hive, they have gains of roughly 17 percent due to reinvestments in growing the planet's facilities. Many believe it is Hephaestus and the Hegemony that truly benefit the most from the treaty, both of whom get a large portion of the profit. The Hegemony receives these credits in tithe and Hephaestus in both support costs and exuberant transport fees in exchange for providing freighters with which to move the manufactured goods out to the Spur.
