Overview

Harrowdeep Claim

Charts mark TR-B-774 in Torchless Reach (TR-4419) — a nickel-iron potato the size of a small city, wrapped in a red-buoy no-fly cage. Concord traffic calls it a Red Zone: no civilian approach, no salvage charter, no "just looking." The buoys pulse ember-red on a twelve-second cycle and scream on every band if you cross the wire.

There is no gate to this system. You cannot buy a hop on the network. Old dock stories say a real-space company mine paid too well and closed too fast; younger pilots only know the buoy ring and the Navy cutter that sometimes sits on the dark side like a bored shark.

If your nav cache still has a pre-closure ore route, delete it. Torchless Reach isn't on the Meridian board. The buoys don't care about nostalgia.
