No surprise that it can't be allowed to exist in Abraxas — a ship like that would represent freedom of movement like no other he can imagine, and for all that the Summoned are given in food, clothing and the necessary sundries for life, the ones who brought them here will never give them that.

From the look of what's left, they could have been a climber. But maybe not only out of practicality or survival. Maybe they simply enjoyed being up high, seeing the world spread out below them. Maybe it helped them feel centered in some way.
