Landros

Landros is a fictional planet featured in the science fiction novel "Echoes of the Nebula" by author Anya Sharma. The planet is described as a terrestrial world with a rich and diverse ecosystem, characterized by vast, bioluminescent forests and deep, crystal-clear oceans. Its atmosphere is breathable for most carbon-based life forms, though it contains trace amounts of exotic gases that can induce vivid hallucinations in unprepared visitors.

The dominant sentient species on Landros are the Kaelen, a reptilian race known for their advanced bio-engineering capabilities and their deep spiritual connection to the planet's natural cycles. The Kaelen society is structured around a council of elders who govern through consensus and prioritize ecological harmony. They have a complex system of communication that involves both vocalizations and subtle pheromonal signals.

Historically, Landros has remained largely isolated from the wider galactic community, preferring to focus on their internal development and the preservation of their world. However, recent discoveries of rare mineral deposits beneath the planet's surface have attracted the attention of off-world corporations, leading to a growing tension between the Kaelen and external factions seeking to exploit their resources. The narrative of "Echoes of the Nebula" explores these burgeoning conflicts and the Kaelen's efforts to protect their home.
