Hoszh Iszhir was the homeworld of the Gektl species. Half of the planet was covered in waterless deserts, while the other half was shrouded in a poisonous atmosphere. There were rich lodes of guerrerite on planet, forcing the Gektl to build planetary defenses. It wasn't until Stafuv Rahz traded the shield codes to the Galactic Empire that the planet was subjugated.
