Wide Sky
The Sable Reach
A newly-reachable deep cluster at the blank edge of the map — the setting of Wide Sky.
In full
Not a system but a region: a cluster of stars that came within reach when the Span opened onto it, and that no expedition had ever charted. Dark on the node-ledger until a ship goes there and makes the first authenticated observations — which is precisely why you send a ship. Contested from the moment it opens: rival powers, freebooters, a human people already living in it, and one fixed door in and out.
Key facts
- Opened and first charted by the NV Dawnward in 2312.
- Dark on the node-ledger until a vessel seeds nodes and makes first authenticated observations.
- Contains Ostry (the Ferren world), the Veray systems, and the Sable throat.
- By 2313 it is a licensed industrial corridor crowded with freight.
