Warden Gate

A Terran fortress system largely devoted to suppressing smugglers and other criminal activity over the closed border. Bypassed and conquered in the 3rd and 4th months of the war and now a vestigial logistics hub serving the first open trade routes between Tiatholon and the Empire of Summer.
During the recent conflict Warden Gate was besieged by Kitsune forward raiders and finally assaulted by a joint Kitsune-Vaiaelon task force, and afterward served as an ftl supply bottleneck for further movement into the province. Warden Gate had quickly established itself as the safer route into Tiatholon, as it is insulated from the much more destructive battle for Polaris province.
In the aftermath of the war in the province, but with Polaris province still unstable, civilian and non-frontline craft still keep to the system when they can. Most do so in an affort to avoid opportunistic raids by imperial forces or the start of long-dreaded reprisal attacks against Tiatholon's population.
A static fleet in the area provides security and customs checks for ships passing through, operating under largely ceremonial provincial oversight as the start of official international cooperation over what was recently a long watched border. At the centre of this administrative operation is the massive Steel Gauntlet class PAC, the Caestus of Jewels, which has the comms and hangar capacity to deal with every arriving ship or party through this increasingly frantic natural bottleneck.
Known NPCs:
Parra
A male Fennec of Sestian extraction, with thick, pale fur and wearing heavy clothes. Arrogant, argumentative and self-confident, Parra is a bully first and an inspector only occasionally. Celeritas, Inf and Gale/Semyorka all have previous with Parra, whose attitude is only just not bad enough to see him fired...
OK (no name known, yet)
A female Kitsune of Sestian extraction. Older, more mature sounding, and one of the few customs officers in the system who is good at her job. Thoroughly tired of Parra's antics but not really able to do anything about him, besides keep him as far away from the 'customers' as possible.
