Hark Prime

Ice planet, named after the large scale asteroid belt near it. Impossible to move a large fleet near, therefore impervious to large scale invasion. The asteroids around it make it a strategic stronghold and listening outpost. We relay incoming invasions from this location. Outpost Xiovi: Xiovi is a scarcely populated for a city, but a huge amount for a communication outpost. The  Fringe  contains 85% of the population's jobs. The apartments and market sections of the semi-city run a mile long into the ground below the surface.
