Rimward of the Savage Reach is a small cluster of stars entwined with a nebula known as the Nemesis Spiral. About a dozen habitable star systems reside in its swirling embrace, clinging to the handful of stable warp routes like a lifeline back to civilization, however they are far from hospitable to the Imperium; Loyalist or Traitor. The Helix Cluster was only just discovered by an Expeditionary Fleet mere months before the Heresy occured, causing all further compliance action in the Sub-Sector to cease.
The Corabie System, comprising of only two worlds, was almost immediately brought to heel and by default has become the Sub-Sector Governor, however it is an administrative title only, for the rest of the Systems within its 'domain' are wild untamed realms controled by Orks and other Xenos empires with a scattering of human settlements yet to be reunited with the Imperium.
