The Artahkan Lands (or Sikalom Cluster to Imperial Charts) is the zone of space beyond Segmentum Tempestus under the dominance of strange bio-mechanical Xenos. Ruled by Artahka, this region has been strife ridden and isolated since the time of the Great Crusade. Surviving only through it's insignificance and isolation, the cluster embroils itself in various conflicts as it staves off complete collapse. The inhabitants of this cluster tend to their own struggles, unaffected by the events of the galaxy at large.
