The Ilus gate is a wormhole gate, part of an ancient network built by the Ring Builders. It connects the Ilus system to the rest of human-colonized space.

History[]

The Ilus system is the first planet outside the Sol system colonized by humans. The first settlers were Belter refugees from Ganymede, reaching the planet in a commandeered Mao-Kwikowski freighter, called the Barbapiccola. The settlers formed the settlement First Landing, claiming the planet Ilus IV and naming it "Ilus". This took place one year after fleeing from Ganymede, in 13 XTE, and shortly after Bering Survey 4 returned results.[2]
