There are five planets in the Ordanian Hub, all orbiting a dark energy star," he said, zooming in to the center of the image. "Each one is home to some breed of criminal.

The two largest worlds - Talth and Skolar Major - were rumored to be controlled by some of the most violent families in the history of organized crime. Believing themselves to be safe from even the most eager officers of the law, these Mobsters filled their planets with goons, hitmen, drug dealers, money launderers and every other type of lowlife individual they could make contact with.
The result was a political and financial ecosystem that - so far - appeared to govern and police itself with an astonishing level of success. Thugs and racketeers were dispatched by the heads of these families in order to establish Mafia outposts in other systems, feeding back the profits from their many questionable enterprises via a variety of smuggling routes.

Many of the wealthier criminals had gone so far as to buy pieces of land and build their own vacation villas there.
This was the reasoning behind the Weather Control Center's newly excavated basement shelter. Each major building constructed in the early days of Alma Nine's colony included such a space, stocking it with canned food and water should the room be required in the event of an incursion.
