Myrrhen
Yellow Dwarf · Sector J2
Medium-sized star in the prime of its stellar evolution. Solar activity within normal parameters for most technological operations.
Its asteroids gather in two Trojan swarms, leading and trailing one of the planets. Which stations, gates and relays stand here changes hour by hour, as the factions contest the galaxy.
Myrrhen IX
Ekhara
Lunareth
- Lunareth Chi Arid moon with sand-covered plains and rocky mesas. Non-aligned locals keep to cautious but fair trade. Sophisticated technology provides extensive trade and diplomatic opportunities. Primary food production makes this world valuable for supply operations.
Lambda Ursae IV
Wormholes
- Epsilon XI Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector I2, the Epsilon XI system: a wide, stable mouth. High-energy star creating spectacular nebular formations.
- Orvane Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector J1, the Orvane system: a faint, flickering tear. Ancient stellar body with billions of years of remaining fuel.
- Calyxa VIII Wormhole A natural wormhole to sector J3, the Calyxa VIII system: a strong, steady throat. Dense stellar remnant slowly cooling over cosmic time.
Phenomena
- The Ekhara Anomaly A gravitational anomaly: space bends visibly round it. It makes the wormholes here easier to find and to stabilise.
- Calyxa Storm A magnetic storm wandering the system: shields flicker and hulls take a beating inside it. It slows any construction it passes over.
- Pulsar J2-670 A spinning neutron star sweeping twin beams of radiation across the system. Nothing is built near it, and pilots keep out of the beams' reach.
Relays
- Survey log, Ekhara: Enormous gas world with crushing atmospheric pressure and violent winds.
- Old relay, still transmitting: 'This is Lambda Ursae IV traffic control. All lanes nominal.' The station it belonged to is long gone.
- Memorial buoy: for the crews lost in the 3177 war over Myrrhen IX. Fly quietly here.
- Survey log, Lunareth Chi: Arid moon with sand-covered plains and rocky mesas.
- Notice from Ekhara Works: buying alloys, selling goods. Fair prices, fast berths.
- Intel brief, Myrrhen IX: Combat readiness essential when operating in this hostile region. Sophisticated technology provides extensive trade and diplomatic opportunities. Resource extraction operations provide raw materials and fuel supplies.
- Ithrani Veil proclamation: sector J2 is under the protection of the Ithrani Veil. Trade freely; fly lawfully.
- Recovered log, drive failure off Ekhara: 'Holding orbit. Life support at forty percent. If anyone hears this, we're on the inner lane.'
- Intel brief, Lambda Ursae IV: Combat readiness essential when operating in this hostile region. Cutting-edge technology may offer access to advanced systems and knowledge. Resource extraction operations provide raw materials and fuel supplies.
- Recovered log, drive failure off Ekhara: 'Holding orbit. Life support at forty percent. If anyone hears this, we're on the inner lane.'
- From the Argosy: we call at every station in Myrrhen on our circuit. Dock under way; we'll match your speed.
