{{GalaxyPortal}}The '''Hazeroth Abyss''' is a [[subsector]] lightless and barren region of space that dominates much of the [[Calixis Hazeroth Sub-Sector]] and is home to a [[Black Templars]] former bastion, the [[Drusus 23 Dragoons|23rd Drusus Dragoons]] and the deadly [[Phyrr Cat]].{{Fn|1}}
==Notable Planets{{Fn|1}}==See '''''Distinctly lacking many active [[Planets Wikipedia:Star|stars]] (the few of which it does boast are near-death), the Abyss resembles a void in space and serves as a natural border between the trailing/coreward edge of the [[Calixis Sector#Hazeroth ]] and the rest of the [[Segmentum Obscurus]] beyond it. With the lack of starlight, the Abyss is full of dead and frozen planets. Even with the lack of inhabitable worlds to travel to, potential visitors are further discouraged by the fact that, even before the opening of the [[Cicatrix Maledictum]], the light of the [[Astronomican]] was difficult for [[navigator]]s to see in the region, and the [[Warp]] itself is prone to squalls and becalmments making [[Warp travel]] difficult and dangerous. Still, elements and substances that form from the death of stars are incredibly valuable to certain industrial processes, so some people do try and venture inside to harvest them. Nobody who does this though, does so lightly, as rumours swirl about space hulks, pirates, ghosts, and xenos residing within the Abyssthat make sure anyone headed inside does so in very heavily armed ships.{{Fn|Planets 1a}} How many of these rumours are true, and how many are fantasy, is hard to determine, but there is definitely another threat to be found in the Hazeroth Abyss]]'''''*, and they call themselves the [[HilarionSlaugth]]*. While the [[MaraCalixian Conclave]]*of the [[PercipreInquisition]]is aware of the existence of the Slaugth, they suppress all public knowledge of them.{{Fn|1b}}
