Belusha


The most famous of the Imperial prison planets, the last destination of many political prisoners. A dismal, cold world.
- Tor Paulos, Empire of Silence

Salvage/scrapping wrecked ships often done in orbit about Belusha by the Martians themselves. They stripped incoming vessels of weapons and more sensitive materials—electronics, fuel containment, and the like—before passing the hulks down to the surface. These were tendered down from a great height, carried by repulsor buoys the size of castles. Time and again, ships were dropped on the plains to smash and shatter. Then the vultures were sent out, crawling and combing over every deck, every inch of hull, every engine port for precious metals, circuit boards, and anything the space crews might have missed.

Vorgossos


A mythical Extrasolarian world said to be the domain of demons and of pirates.
- Tor Paulos, Empire of Silence

In Disquiet Gods, Vorgossos is revelead to have been located a few light years from Old Earth in the Spur of Orion. However, Kharn Sagara had "built massive engines into the planet's pole in imitation of the might star-drives of the Cielcin." When Bassander Lin and the Empire returned to the plant's original location, following the events of Howling Dark, they found only desolate space.
