This asteroid belt is composed of cold earth and frozen ice masses, with ice predominant in the mix. Vegetation is difficult to find here, but a few [[Calidians|Calidian]] settlers hit upon the lucrative business of exporting water to colonies where there is a shortage. The Calidians have established a few trade cities here. The [[Antilan Empire|Antilans]] followed, but maintain only a single outpost which supplies water to the drier colonies near [[Firefall]]. Recent arrivals, the [[Beholders]] and [[Illithid Empire|Illithid]] presence here is quite strong. No one is quite sure what either race is after, but violent disputes between beholder and mind flayer are common.
