Helios
System Information
X:Y Coordinates-367.855 : -411.338[e]

The Helios system is an independent system in the rimward and anti-spinward region of the Periphery.[1]

System Description

The Helios system is located near the Islington and Thraxa systems and lies in the unclaimed territory between the Magistracy of Canopus and Marian Hegemony.[1]

System History

The Helios system was either settled at some point during the FedCom Civil War,[2][3][4] or was an already-inhabited system that became significant enough during this period for Inner Sphere nations to begin recording its location on maps. Helios vanished from maps during the Dark Age,[1][5] indicating that the system had either been abandoned, depopulated, or rendered too insignificant to merit further recording.
