Planet: Amargosa
Location: Foothills west of the reservoir
Type: Homestead / Remote cabin
Summary:
Walden is the name John Parker gave to a remote cabin and its surrounding property in the foothills of Amargosa. Named after the famous book Walden by Henry David Thoreau, it served as the Parker family’s “summer place.” During the Gelt invasion of 429 IE, Lizzy Parker led JT Austin there after they fled the Parker farm, intending to use it as a place to hide and recover. The route to Walden led them away from the reservoir and the alien landing site.
The homestead, while isolated, became a symbol of retreat and safety for the characters. Though later taken over by Colonial Guard and Marines under command of Quan Jiang, it represents a place untouched by war—at least temporarily.
