D43 - Sarnath

Hiveworld. A wonder of the subsector and the pride of all mankind living in D43. It was first colonized before Old Night, and legend tells of an ancient race of xenos that were purged by the brave colonists. A few xenoarcheological statuettes are all that remains of this now-forgotten species. Sarnath is one of the rare planets that, upon noticing the Imperial expeditionary fleets in the local area, actually made peaceable contact and requested to join the Imperium of Man. The hives are self-sustaining due to a variety of deep-crust agricultural practices.
