Lokon

The human colony planet, Lokon, after the Long Night:

a large island is the only inhabitable area;

native psuedo-grasses are red;

a plant with green trilobate leaves is descended from Terrestrial clover;

the isolated colony has sunk to highland barbarism or jungle savagery;

the lowland dialect is a debased form of Lokonese, which is remotely descended from Anglic;

the crew of the Allied Planets ship, New Dawn, must recommend whether a civilizing mission should be sent;

the New Dawn crew includes a Krakenite Militech who guards the expedition's compound in the highlands while her Atheian husband explores the lowlands. (They had met when his spaceship crew incorporated Kraken into the Allied Planets.)

There's more to write but not tonight.
