Koornacht Cluster/Legends

The Koornacht Cluster was an immense luminous disk of blazing stars and interstellar gas located in the Farlax sector of the Core Worlds, near the fringes of the Deep Core. 
==Description==
The Koornacht Cluster was an array of approximately 2,000 star systemsCoruscant and the Core Worlds of The Negs region of the Core Worlds, on the frontier of the Deep Core, which was named after Aitro Koornacht, a palace guard on Tamban who befriended the astronomer that first discovered it. Despite this high concentration of star systems with around 20,000 worlds, only a hundred or so planets bore life and only six produced sentient lifeforms. It was believed that seventeen planets outside the Duskhan League had lifeforms of some kind, but it was difficult to survey or contact them.Before the Storm
The Widek Bypass detoured around the cluster and the Metellos Trade Route terminated at it.
The Koornacht Cluster was known by the Fia as "The Great Multitude of the Circle of the Heavens" or simply "The Multitude", by the Wehttam as "God's Temple", by the Ka'aa as "No'aat Padu'll" or "The Little Nursery", by the Yevetha as "Home", and a number of other names.
==History==
The Crucible had operations in the Koornacht Cluster through the Sungrazer cooperative which operated in 3964 BBY. The Gladiator was one such vessel that operated in the region and was involved in a fight against Zayne Carrick.
During the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi once traveled through the Cluster where he once encountered a bounty hunter using a lightwhip.The Cestus Deception At some point, the Yevetha began expanding from their spawnworld of N'zoth by using Aramadia-class thrustships with sublight capabilities, and used them to settle eleven worlds in the Koornacht Cluster.
Following the end of the conflict, the Galactic Empire established a presence in the region where they placed the core of their Black Sword Command in the Cluster with the directive of protecting the Core from attack. However, following the Battle of Endor, their base of operations around N'zoth was overrun by the Yevetha slave forces who managed to usurp the yards from the Imperial Navy. Through the technology they had acquired, the Yevetha formed the Duskhan League and later were involved in the Black Fleet Crisis when they attempted to bring about their Great Purge of the region.
