A planet in a desolate area of the Omicron Xi system. As yet, this planet has not been charted, surveyed or explored. No details are available about its exact size, mass or terrain.

For the longest time, Knossos has remained largely untouched due to its location within the North Aegean Nebula. While it was known to exist, its location deterred most from attempting to chart the planet nestled within the depths of the hostile nebula. However, with the Corsairs further advancing into Omicron Xi, it was only a matter of time before someone stumbled upon the remains of an ancient Nomad installation that had been constructed within the upper atmosphere of the planet. Appearing utterly destroyed, the installation shows signs of having been damaged by an especially heavy atmospheric storm a long time ago, although the reason for its abandonment is just as arcane as its original purpose. Thus it only floats, slowly getting pulled in by Knossos' gravitational pull until the jagged remains of the alien installation one day burn up in the planet's lower atmosphere.

The discovery did not go unnoticed, however. Both the Outcasts and the Corsairs have set their eyes on the site, as rumors had quickly spread about a new source of Xeno Relics that would fetch exorbitant prices on the black market of Sirius. Due to the contested nature of Omicron Xi, however, the journey to Knossos is one littered with dangers and so it remains to be seen as to whether Malta or Crete manages to assert dominance over the site or whether they content themselves with merely denying the other access to it.
