Notable Locations[edit | edit source]

  • Vethia District: The heart of the Union, the Vethia district housing some of its most prominent colonies.
    • Alrukai: Alrukai is the homeworld and former capitol. Most of the civilian population resides in underground cities, though many settlements have grown to the point that they have expanded back towards the surface. Alrukai was the first planet to have a planetary shield array installed.
      • Faea: Faea is Alrukai's moon. It is currently occupied by the military, who have integrated the celestial body into Alrukai's defense grid partly by installing several large anti-orbital batteries on the surface.
    • Valakar Station: Valakar station is a gargantuan starbase that serves as the empire's capitol and as the headquarters of the AFTU. It is effectively a mobile fortress featuring factories, hangars, docks, and a variety of weapon systems for self-defense. Under normal circumstances, Valakar Station and its escort fleet travels in a circuit across the core worlds.
    • Volusai: Volusai served as the union's primary military command center until it was superseded by Valakar Station. Today, it is an exceptional training and production center that manages the AFTU's activities within the Vethia District.
  • Alaghax District: Once a modestly developed sector sitting near the edge of the middle sphere, the Alaghax sector was seized by the AFTU when the empire joined the Pact. It primarily serves as a staging area for the Diab Theatre and hosts supply chains feeding into the Baltreos Foothold. The 843rd armada is stationed in the sector to defend it from invaders.
    • Alaghax: Capitol and namesake of the Alaghax sector. Current headquarters of the 843rd armada.
    • Vilgorod: Initially founded by a community devoted to the god of engineering and of the arts, Visar, Vilgorod has become Alaghax's largest manufacturer of military equipment and is regarded as the cultural heart of the sector.
    • Thalnaeva: Fortress world which serves as a logistics base for the Diab theatre.
    • Yulzek: Manufacturing colony taken by the military to serve as a logistics base for the Diab theatre.
    • Hruthar: Command center and logistics base committed to the Sauran theatre.
    • Osgara: A gas giant home to a number of gas-harvesting facilities. Two of its moons, Zarlr and Ilhiv, house Marganite research facilities.
    • Tyzu: Over 95% of Tyzu's surface is covered in water. Deep beneath the seas are the ruins of an ancient civilization that archaeologists have been studying since their initial discovery.
    • Zyaltha A relatively new colony whose primary export is food.
    • KZE Occupation Zone: A group of five colonies home to the recently-annexed Kizanthe.
  • Linalu District: Named in honor of the late kaiserin, Linalu, the Linalu sector is a large and developed sector of space that is adjacent to Alaghax. Like its neighbor, Linalu was seized by the military when hostilities began.
    • Zigala: Sector command center for the Nuverian theatre.
    • Teogoth: Sector command center for the Zaretian theatre.
  • Vedrthar Military District: The Vedrthar sector is a sector of Diab space that was captured by Pact forces during Operation Sledgehammer. Vedrthar has seen some of the bloodiest fighting in Telkevan military history and is regarded by some as a warrior's paradise despite the ongoing stalemate and the sometimes abysmal conditions as a result of the consistent usage of both marganite and biochemical weapons.
    • Baltreos: Baltreos served as the capitol of the Vedrthar sector. It currently serves as a local command center for Pact forces. The command staff of the various armadas operating in the sector reside here.
    • Sevethos: Sevethos was a prominent colony that now serves as a major logistics base, its supply lines connecting it to Thalnaeva.
    • Glasos: Glasos is a gas giant currently housing several harvesting platforms.
    • Alvainos: Alvainos was a small Diab colony in which much of the infrastructure was situated underground to shield the Diabs from the frigid surface and to bring them closer to valuable ores. The Telkevon fought a prolonged and bloody conflict to secure these facilities, making the continued occupation of the planet a point of pride for those units responsible for Alvainos' capture.
    • Urdos: Urdos was a rapidly developing frontier colony which suffered an extensive marganite bombardment during Sledgehammer, initiating an infestation that has since engulfed much of the planet. The Telkevon maintain a small garrison here and harvest the crystals for use in their weapons.
    • Falkeos: Falkeos had served as a military colony until its capture by Pact forces. Though the planet suffers from a severe crystal infestation, the Telkevon continue to occupy the settlement and use it as a production center.
    • Veos: Veos is a colony which had narrowly avoided capture during Operation Sledgehammer only to fall under occupation two years later. The planet features an extensive stardock, which was repaired and retrofitted to serve Pact ships following the invasion.
  • Drekelsis: Drekelsis is an isolated world on the furthest edges of Telkevan space that is used for Xenochytrid research. The world was selected due to its distance, frigid climate, lack of biomass, and its uninhabited state. The installations on Drekelsis require life-support systems as Repzork cannot breathe the planet's atmosphere.
