Room, perhaps, but not resources. The city is small and unsustainable to the numbers we currently have on hand in our ship. The Abandoned City is dangerous and full of monsters, many who have given me a hard time and requires at least fives times the size of our current Perimeter Guard to manage.

We don't have years. We have a full months in space and if we're not careful, we will run out of food and water much sooner. The portal is erratic and unreliable and cannot pull out an entire ship full of refugees.
