The Abyss on Holmfirth Depot

[farmerman]

A cold, misty air hung in the air of the series of rooms on the lower decks of Holmfirth Depot affectionately dubbed "The Abyss". The low gravity combined with a steady breeze, estimated by some to be approximately 5%-10% of that on Planet Cambridge, caused the Gilded Ferns of Gaia that grew from the walls to wave lazily in a way reminiscent of seaweed on the ocean plain. The thick banks of fog, which were caused by the bar being located between the secondary power relay system and the outer edges of the station, tended to drift by lazily as well, though the bar was always clear owing to the many fans located there for just that reason. While containing several small rooms, it was still a bit on the small side, which greatly annoyed the proprietor, Will. Nonetheless, he was prepared for business.

The bar was stocked with the both the finest and cheapest Gallic wines, Gaian Absinthe, Rheinlandic beers of all sorts, and even some fancy sake from Kusari. All manner of other luxuries, both legal and not, were also available at the locale - for a fee proportional to the risk involved in acquiring it, of course. Even hypno-tainment bands from Gallia were starting to show up, though due to their scarcity and demand they cost a pretty credit indeed. Even special graviton field generating glasses were available at the bar so that the patron's drinks didn't float off with an untimely bump. Many, but not all, of the tables in the place were equipped with similar graviton field generators to better enable patrons to sit in more comfortable environments.
