History & Background (Dossier)

The common name for this world has no easy translation from Hiver Sign Language, even into Gurvin, and so it is known on charts by numerical designation.

This world is part of a series of six systems in the trailing rimward region of Crucis Margin Sector that are clients of the Hive Federation. The six worlds have a very loose mutual defense and trade agreement -- sometimes called the Hv’ika Kamlin -- independent of direct Hiver support (although Manipulations are no doubt in play).
