History

Created by bubbling lava and tectonic action, Safe Shallows, a bioregion of the subnautic world, is a peaceful haven teeming with marine life. In prehistoric times, this shallow space with occasional volcanoes and enchanting caves was a haven for sailors and explorers.
Located near the crash site of the starship Aurora, Safe Shallows is a delicate testament to the survival and exploration history of planet 4546B. This place was the first living beacon discovered by the Aurora survivors, inviting them into an enchanting underwater world, albeit full of ambiguous dangers.
In the years since the Aurora incident, the diverse population of Safe Sekių has adapted to the changing ecosystem. A splash of color against the harshness of the ocean abyss, the flora and fauna of Safe Shallows provide an original charm. Whether it's a delicate swimming fish, a luminous pufferfish, or a glowing toadstool, each species lives in harmony with each other.
Safe Shallows also includes stories of survival, most notably from Ryley Robinson, the sole survivor of the Aurora crash, whose first base was established here. It may seem peaceful during the day, but when the three moons rise, the region glows with an ethereal bioluminescence, transforming it into an otherworldly spectacle.
Further exploration, hidden beneath calm shallows, reveals an incredible labyrinth of caves rich in quartz, copper and titanium. Also known as Coral Tube Caves, these underground wonders are a treasure trove of resources just waiting to be discovered.
The story of the Safe Shallows is a story of fiery creativity, survival and natural beauty. It is a testament to time, echoing silent tales of exploration and adventure, hiding an abundance of life and resources within its depths.
