Lakeshore 10:25AM
When Aleheart Colony was choosing landing spots, Cordia Peak was deemed a good source of geothermal and hydroelectric energy. This lake, snug under the mountain, is the oldest manmade thing on the planet, you have a poster of it at home.

In the early pictures, the lake is whitish, silty water in a bowl of bare rock, fed by a trickle of glacial runoff, and dammed at the south end with concrete. Now it is deep blue. The glacier has progressed so far that it forms a wall across the north end of the lake, tall enough to block any view of Cordia Peak except the summit. Icebergs float on the water. Fine black grass, rippled like velvet, grows on the bank. At the south end, the concrete too is gone; the water simple seems to stop.

The arc of Aleheart's ring system crosses the southern sky, much the same pale white as the moon in daytime.

A narrow path climbs west through a low point in the ridge and continues along the face of the glacier towards town.
