-On the outskirts of the star system of the [[territories/aleph_cluster]], skirting the borders of Red Space and far beyond any of the system's jump gates or regular traffic is the **Outer Ring**. This place is home to a rag tag motley of near-lawless worlds with no overarching government or oversight, and pirate warlords interested in their own lots.+On the outskirts of the star system of the [[territories:aleph_null]], skirting the borders of Red Space and far beyond any of the system's jump gates or regular traffic is the **Outer Ring**.

     * A space station floats in this band, and within it is a notorious dive named **Archie's**. Originally a Greaseheart-styled burger joint, the raucous nature of the most frequent patrons transformed it into a noisy bar where pirates go to recruit crews. Woe betide someone looking for a quiet time here or immediately outside; For even in the backrooms, there is no peace.     * A space station floats in this band, and within it is a notorious dive named **Archie's**.

There are large clusters of **Space Junk** floating about from failed or completed tests, or the outcomes of a dogfight spilling over from Pirate's Cove, or a hulk drifting in from the Horse Winds.

 +    * Many ships avoid this sector of the Aleph Cluster's outskirts. The spatial and mnemonic hazards plaguing the area are to be the work of Bounders, a fluctuation in space caused by a reality-warping matrimony of [[guide/phenomenon#maelstrom|maelstrom]] and the [[guide/phenomenon#the_red_tide|Red Tide]], or other Weird phenomena allegedly coalesced around the **Graveyard**. Whatever the cause, scraps from battles past and hulks tumbling through space are drawn to accumulate here, presenting both opportunity for daring scroungers amidst extremely hostile space phenomena.
   * **Southern Band** - Designation: Old Town   * **Southern Band** - Designation: Old Town
     * A permanent settlement borne from the remnants of a failed space colony project is called **Last Light 5**, originally one of six colonies dispatched to the area as the others were ransacked, destroyed, or otherwise faced calamity - remnants merging with Last Light 5 until it was the last one standing. Years of neglect and a lack of local technical expertise has rendered the air inside the station difficult to breathe for long periods.     * A permanent settlement borne from the remnants of a failed space colony project is called **Last Light 5**, originally one of six colonies dispatched to the area as the others were ransacked, destroyed, or otherwise faced calamity - remnants merging with Last Light 5 until it was the last one standing.

-    * One of the few bastions of honest employment amidst the lawlessness of the ring, there is a **Mining Outpost** run by a company located somewhere in the [[society/kingdom_of_albion]]. They are tasked with finding rare earths and other minerals for export. Consequently, this has lead to an armed private security presence patrolling the area due to the neighbours.+    * One of the few bastions of honest employment amidst the lawlessness of the ring, there is a **Mining Outpost** run by a company located somewhere in the [[society/kingdom_of_albion]].

 +    * Far beyond the reach of any law enforcement and taking advantage in the lapse in regulation and oversight, a space station built from the remnants of an old mining colony dubbed the **Bacchus Strip** floats here. Overcrowded, desperate, and brimming with iniquity; The Strip boasts a range of gambling dens, black markets, hired guns, and criminals.

 +    * Something belonging to the [[company/gruppen_tanhauss]] Conglomerate through a series of elaborately obfuscated companies occupies this area: **The Zero-G Max Security Prison** is exactly what it says on the tin: A privately run prison complex. The location of the prison keeps changing, and it is accompanied by a formation of private fighters working from Vogeljäger Security.
