Sarvat is a vast ocean planet with only a few small islands. It was colonized by the Argonasti Empire over one and a half millennia ago. Its main purpose has been to help supply the empire with fresh drinking water. The planet has a large space elevator, built to haul large quantities of water into space for cargo ships to then distribute, cutting out a huge amount of fuel that would otherwise be used to get the water off-planet. Several attempts have been made to explore or colonize the deep oceans, but all attempts have resulted in failure. Expeditions never being seen again.
