Ash in The Outer Worlds

Ash is a grizzled old veteran in the Amber Heights bar. Once talked to, the Stranger can give him 20 bits for a drink in return for a story as well as some insight into the geography of Monarch.

 In Ash's first story, he talks about the Hot Pole of Monarch; the side of the planet that's always facing Olympus, a gas giant that constantly releases heat. He speaks of the volcanoes that reach all the way into space, as well as an encounter that he had when he put his ear to the ground— hearing the tapping of a monstrosity coming from beneath the earth.

 In Ash's second story, he tells a tale about the massive ocean on Monarch, whose low tides ebbs back miles, and the high tide that flows back in fast, covering entire islands with water. Ash goes in detail about seeing alien structures before the tide came back; almost drowning while trying to escape. With a combined skill check of Medical and Science, the Stranger try and give a scientific reason behind what happened, but he doesn't understand what they're talking about.

In Ash's third story, he speaks of the Cold Pole, the side of the planet that always opposes Olympus. He talks about the cliffs of ice, and all of the cold air coming in contact with the superheated air from the Hot Pole, creating a massive storm barrier. Ash, pushing himself through the storm barrier and went up to the mountain peaks of Pole, stared at the beautiful scenery around him, and almost died from not remembering to breathe.
