“So as these realms of stars are, so once were all realms that are now counted amongst the Imperium of Man: rich with the fear and darkness, and rank with the smell of secrets that belong to the dead.”
–Attributed to Rogue Trader Solomon Haarlock
Overview
Beyond the larger nebulae of the
Koronus Expanse are regions visited only by the silent
Disciples of Thule and few others. Tales are told of ghost-vessels, beauteous but deserted worlds, dust-nebulae that claim the souls of the damned and forsaken---and of course, wealth beyond measure, awaiting the courageous
Rogue Traders who will claim it. Among other dangers, the Eldar Corsairs known as the
Crow Spirits hunt here.
History
In the far corner of the
Koronus Expanse, Rimward of the The
Foundling Worlds and Trailing of the Accursed Demense lies the region of the subsector named the Unbeholden Reaches. Shielded by the Alenic Depths, it is only accessible by passing close to ‘Undred-’Undred-Teef, or passing up through the
Rifts of Hecaton before heading down. The difficulty of reaching these region means that it is ill-explored by
Rogue Traders, and the first ships laden with fabulous treasures have begun to come back to
Footfall, inspiring rumours and great salvage fleets fuelling up ready to plunder its depths.
