Wolves at the Door

“The harvest is in, and its time to celebrate! School is definitely out! And it’s going to be a great party as Gramps and Ma always cut us more slack than Mom and Pop and they’re away doin’ the deal for the new trader for the fleet to handle the new contracts with the Megacorps in the Imperium next year. There’ll be dancing and a carnival that just arrived and we may even get to try some of the Apfelwein if the adults aren’t looking.”

A backwater colony on the edge of the Vargr Extents comes to the end of harvest. Only the older folks and the kids are on-world, as the adults have gone to the Imperium to contract a new starship for the planetary corporation.
