Kessandras System
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Kessandras System is an Imperial System of Ultima Segmentum located within Imperium Nihilus.[1]
Located near the Chalnath Expanse in the Voronin Cluster, the System is cut off from Terra due to the Great Rift. This makes reinforcements and communications difficult, so the worlds are largely left to fend for themselves. However they are aided by formidable defenses.[1]
