Yuick (You-ick)

The Last Stop Before the Wilds

Yuick is a small CFAS settlement situated in Herakles Bay, on the edge of the Anapteros Forest. Officially founded on 10th May 2581, it is the largest Commonwealth settlement in the region and considered to be the last bastion of civilisation for many miles around, making it the staging point for most expeditions venturing into the forest, whether they are on a scientific endeavour or trying to reach a remote research outpost. Yuick harbour is connected to that of Longsands, the latter of which acts as the port for larger ships before passing up passengers and goods on smaller boats capable of traversing The Anapteros River. With a small population of just under 350 people, Yuick boasts the bare necessities of frontier survival, such as a hydroponics facility, security outpost, waste management facility, and solar power arrays with back-up batteries. It has some laboratories but no permanent on-site scientific staff; the rota changes throughout the year, accommodating scientific teams that need to work in the Anapteros for extended periods of time. Beyond the residential buildings and a few community spaces, Yuick is small, reliant on imports, and only important because of its strategic placement for expeditions to more remote areas. It has close ties with The Northern Alliance, who provided a small fleet of Solar Skiffs to the colonists in exchange for various construction materials, as a means of providing expeditionary crews quick and reliable transportation to wherever they need to go. It is the only settlement outside of The Northern Alliance, besides those of The Southern Alliance, to use the vehicles.
