Synopsis
The Kepler system is an Independent World that connects Liberty and Kusari. It contains two jump gates: one that leads to Shikoku, and another that leads to Colorado. They are connected by two trade lanes, with Ames Research Station between them. Because it is larger than the Galileo system and therefore takes longer to cross, as well as the more convenient location of the Galileo jump gate in Colorado, it does not experience heavy traffic other than those who have come to trade with Ames Research Station. Additionally, a heavy Xenos presence based out of the Denko Cloud has further discouraged Kepler's use as a significant trade highway between Liberty and Kusari.
Areas of Interest
Denko Cloud
A small cloud with dark matter. Scanners do not function within the confines of the cloud, making it a popular hiding place for Xenos who attack traffic from Kusari in an effort to drive the so-called "foreign" presence from Liberty.
Kuryo Cloud
A outcropping of the larger "Kuryo Anomaly," a large field of dark matter first charted by the great Kusari explorer Ichi Matsuo. Scanners do not function within the confines of the cloud.
Matsuo Cloud
A medium-sized cloud of dark matter. Scanners do not function within the confines of the cloud.
