The subsector is split into coreward and rimward worlds by a small but regionally substantial rift requiring jump-3 to cross. Starships rarely travel across the rimward portions of the Ghost Rift. The best route is the Broken Chain, a string of jump-2 accessible systems across the rimward portions of the Spinward Drift, Ghost Rift, and Siren subsectors.
