The only city above the surface of Manaan's oceans, Ahto City was the meeting place between the [[Selkath]] and offworld visitors. It was a tremendous, shell shaped structure that floated on top of the water's surface using a buoyancy system that seemed to incorporate the city's massive center. Kolto would be gathered here from undersea vents and shipped off to those who requested it. Indeed, much of Ahto City was comprised of hangers and distribution centers. Exotic and beautiful fountains dotted the many courtyards of Ahto City. There were also many cantinas, shops, and other recreational facilities present. Other than kolto, tourism was also a major part of Manaan's economy. All visitors were given a free map and guide upon arrival. The [[Sith Embassy (Manaan)|Sith Embassy]] and [[Republic Embassy (Manaan)|Republic Embassy]] were located in Ahto as well, and were the center of each respective faction's interests on Manaan.
The only city above the surface of Adru's oceans, Kinba City was the meeting place between the [[Adruan]] and offworld visitors. It was a tremendous, shell shaped structure that floated on top of the water's surface using a buoyancy system that seemed to incorporate the city's massive center. Laktum would be gathered here from undersea vents and shipped off to those who requested it. Indeed, much of Kinba City was comprised of hangers and distribution centers. Exotic and beautiful fountains dotted the many courtyards of Kinba City. There were also many cantinas, shops, and other recreational facilities present.

The Hrakert Rift was the largest source of kolto on Manaan. It was home to thousands of firaxan sharks and the Progenitor. The rift also contained a Star Map, excavated by Republic scientists. The Hrakert station was also located here. The station secretly mined kolto from the ocean floor. The machinery disturbed the Progenitor, who screeched loudly, driving firaxan sharks and Selkath alike, insane. The Republic scientists were killed by the crazed Selkath, and production ceased. Republic diplomat Rolan Wann hired teams of mercenaries to investigate the facility. They too were killed, and the mystery remained uncovered, until Revan arrived on Manaan, searching for the lost Star Map. Revan destroyed the Hrakert machinery to calm the Progenitor, and rescued the surviving scientists. The Hrakert rift was later used as the base of operations for the Order of Shasa.
The Komina Rift was the largest source of laktum on Adru. It was home to thousands of dridalum sharks and the First One. The Komina station was also located here. The station secretly mined laktum from the ocean floor. The machinery disturbed the First One, who screeched loudly, driving dridalum sharks and Adruan alike, insane. The [[VIR|Valcarian Republic]] scientists were killed by the crazed Adruan, and production ceased. Valcarian Republic diplomats hired teams of mercenaries to investigate the facility. They too were killed, and the mystery remained uncovered for many years.
