The Settlers is a story about space creatures who try to find a planet to settle in. The search takes so long until they find a suitable planet which has another group of local creatures on it. The settlement starts, time passes, the number of the settlers grows, but, conversely, the locals gradually disappear. Until there are no more locals found on the planet, the settlers need to leave this planet to find another one that they can settle in, with an anxiety if they would ever find any planet they can really live on.

“Just another trip to find another planet to live…”
