| Commissioned in 2626 under the [[human_settlement_plan_hsp|Human Settlement Plan]], the Medical Station of Firetown served as the settlement’s principal general‑care facility. Aside from a single Chief Physician, all diagnostics, triage, and routine treatments are performed by [[medical_bots|Medical Bots]] — residents trust the same automated care they once had aboard the [[last_frontier|Last Frontier]]. Services run from basic check‑ups and inoculations to emergency trauma stabilisation and nano‑therapies. | Commissioned in 2626 under the [[human_settlement_plan_hsp|Human Settlement Plan]], the Medical Station of Firetown served as the settlement’s principal general‑care facility.

| |
| Stepping inside, you feel the contrast of Firetown’s frigid gloom and the warmth of engineered comfort. The black basalt walls absorb the torches' glow, casting soft reflections across polished stone floors A Butler Bot glides up to the metallic counter to greet you, while the quiet hum of Medical Bots punctuates the air. | Outside, the building blends into Firetown’s dense industrial streetscape: stacked containers, heat pipes, cable bundles, floodlights, and drifting steam press in from all sides. Snow on the ground is trampled flat and stained with ash and grit. The entrance canopy glows harsh white against the permanent night, reflecting off frost-rimmed steel. |
| | |
| | Inside, the air is warm and dry, held in place by constant mechanical effort. Medical lighting is bright but narrow, focused where it needs to be and nowhere else. |
| | |
| | The Butler Bot’s voice is calm and neutral as patients queue in heavy coats, breath fogging briefly before the heat curtain disperses it. Medical Bots move with precise, economical motions, their servos humming softly beneath the louder rhythm of ventilation fans and pressure valves. |
| | |
| | This is a place that keeps people alive — amid the noise, vice, and desperation of Firetown’s streets. |
