Explora 2. The Development. Explora Project, #2

Did you know that the higher you soar, the harder you fall? Even on Locus, where gravity is lighter than on Earth. The "Cruel" Alliance is about to prove that old saying right - at the expense of one man who can't seem to stop climbing. The arrogance of newcomers has a way of irritating everyone: bandits and free alliances alike. Ron has taken on more than just construction and gunfights - now he's playing diplomat and merchant too.
Has he bitten off more than he can chew? And what happens when he discovers that being stretched too thin is the least of his problems? Will the young engineer remember in time that gravity spares no one - without exception? Neither do proverbs.
