S-1988

Barren silicate asteroid in the Karin Cluster containing an abandoned military warehouse and depot.

S-1988 emerges in Morning Star as a desolate silicate asteroid tucked within the Karin Cluster, its surface hiding an abandoned military warehouse and depot that becomes a pivotal asset for the rising rebellion. The location's forgotten stockpiles and strategic isolation allow Darrow's forces to replenish supplies and stage critical operations away from Gold surveillance. Though its role is confined to the events of the third book, S-1988 symbolizes the hidden infrastructure of the old regime that the Reds and their allies turn against their former masters.
