Scylla

Scylla is the largest asteroid of the Charybdis Cluster, and one of the largest asteroids in the Halcyon system,Halcyon map description which contains some laboratories and transmitting stations. It was originally claimed by the Hephaestus Mining Company, which has since abandoned it and focused its attention on the planet Hephaestus.
==Background==
When the Hephaestus Mining Company first arrived on Scylla, three years before the Hope was classified as missing, they performed an initial survey and found a mineral vein with high densities of yttrium and scandium. To make mining operations easier, Hephaestus Mining Company installed an environmentally sealed dome on the asteroid, constructing within it a terraformer to produce oxygen and a mining outpost to house miners. The Company also supplemented human staff with prospecting automechanicals.Message #1: Preliminary Survey Results
By day 127 of mining operations, the initial mineral vein had already been unexpectedly fully extracted. While the miners searched for other mineral veins, a team sent by the Board visited Scylla to search for signals from the Hope, presumably to no avail.Message #2: Status Report - Day 127
By day 268 of mining operations, all mineral veins within the dome were fully extracted. As a result, the miners submitted a request to Hephaestus Mining Company to relocate the terraformer elsewhere on Scylla after surveys conducted by the site's automechanicals showed promising results on other parts of the asteroid. Meanwhile, the miners prepared the outpost for a visiting circus conducted by CircusTime to improve employee morale.Message #3: Status Report - Day 268
When CircusTime arrived at the outpost on their freighter, the primals to be used in their upcoming performance immediately escaped due to a "malfunction," which was really an enclosure error that was covered up instead of repaired. Three teams were sent out to recover the escaped primals, the third of which was lead by the circus ringleader, and all of which presumably were killed by the primals. CircusTime then abandoned the primals and their freighter on Scylla.Ringmaster's Log - CircusTime Primal Performers
One year into the mining operation, Hephaestus Mining Company rejected the miners' request to relocate the terraformer and abandoned Scylla due to the supervisor S. Needhams's "incompetence", failure to produce a profit, and the loose primals damaging equipment. The entire site was abandoned and the miners were relocated to another asteroid.Message #4: Denial of Site Relocation
Since then, Scylla lay abandoned and the asteroid became a hotbed for outlaw operations. A number of outlaw bands have set up camps and bases within the dome and elsewhere on Scylla, including Harlow's Base and CircusTime's abandoned freighter. Additionally, the primals have made the dome their permanent habitat. Left behind were the terraformer, still operational, and a number of now hostile automechanicals. A lone hermit has also taken residence within one of the buildings of the outpost.

* Logs from some of the crashed freighters can be found around Scylla. These appear to be related to Felix's quest, Friendship's Due.
