The Communal Pool, a large, swampy body of water teeming with dense plant life, existed on Queesh. Queesh is one of the two continents found on the planet Ergeshui. This location was identifiable by strange, geometrically arranged columns of flora. The Ergesh species utilized this pool as their official meeting place for governance. Monthly, the heads of every clan convened at the Communal Pool for a lengthy 40-hour session, during which all matters of planetary importance were addressed. Each clan head brought along an Ergesh individual to serve as both an assistant and a ceremonial protector.
