Solace lies upon the desolate Imperial World of Lind. It is by far the most important manufacturing hive on this poisonous planet. For this reason, many call the world itself 'Solace' despite the fact that it's listed in the Roll of Worlds as 'Lind'. The planet has other monikers as well, most of them related to it's close proximity to the 13th Sation of passage. 'Warden of the Vortex' is one, 'Gateway to Hell' another.
Whatever the planet's name, Solace sits upon a well-traveled route (relatively speaking) that leads all the way from the Kononus Expanse, via Port Wander, to the Spinward Front. For many years, while Calixis Sector was still a sector and the Spinward Front was still a front, the hive profited greatly from the export of war materials.
The planet doesn't have its own warp-capable fleet, but it's one of the most heavily defended sites in the former Calixis Sector. It's dreaded Perdition Cannon can destroy a capital warship with a single shot, and that's just one of many weapons. Heavy defense monitors circle the planet, endless minefields lurk in the void, and shoals of hunter-killer servitor craft patrol the space lanes.
