*Normality had begun to once again return to the wilderness of Garqi, the disturbance of the slightly recent invading forces now just a blink in the vast depths of Garqi's memory. The only disturbances, which the wilderness played host too, were the vast number of farms which once again sprang to life, the farmers happy to once again be working after near to seven months of inactivity.
The newly formed Planetary Senate had recently approved a proposal, brought forth to it by the widely known Jedi Master Barden Sarrow, which formed and gave 70% of all agricultural rights to Sarrow Industries. Although a small number of politicians still adamantly fought against it, the farmers were rejoicing. They were once again working, and being paid much more then the small amounts they had collected during past harvest seasons. Now they were paid for labor, given a balance for equipment and repairs, and paid for their product as well. They knew that a golden economical age was soon to come to the city of Pesktda, and in extension, all of Garqi.*
*A small transport had landed, carrying a small survey crew and their equipment. Since the formation of Sarrow Industries, an emphasis had been placed on collecting geological samples and determining exactly what minerals the planet had to offer, what materials they could be used to fabricate, and the most eco-friendly way to go about extracting the minerals. This team was just one of many survey teams which were currently scouring what the experts had determined as mineral "hot spots" located on Garqi.
They began by setting up ground penetrating scanners, using a combination of sound and detection devices to determine if there were any vast deposits of significant minerals located below. They repeated this process in a 200 yard diameter circle. Once they had collected all their preliminary data, they began to drill in locations they had marked, aiming to reach the located deposits and acquire samples from them. they would then label the exact locations the samples were collected, store them, and eventually take them back to their main base of operations (Sarrow Industries Lab Corps.) and determine what each area had to offer.*
