u'There is but one law in Vo\u2019shun: no one is turned away. Ruled entirely by tribal law adapted and modified from Minmatar folklore, the colony is a mishmash of utter savagery and social enlightenment the Republic quietly envies. Murder is more than common, suicide is rampant, but above all the people of Vo\u2019shun know freedom. Those stained with the Slaver\u2019s fang can sing war songs rather than be condemned to a lifetime of silence; those marked with the pale eye can live among kin.

The Sisters of Eve attempt regular clandestine aid shipments to Hidden Hope, which exists in a state of near-poverty. Due to Starkman Prime\u2019s location in the Arzad system \u2013 a disputed border zone between the Minmatar and the Amarr \u2013 many of these shipments are interdicted, which in turn forces the Outcast to turn to piracy. While the Amarr Navy is brutally efficient at curbing Outcast raids, the only reasons the Empire has not allowed slave raiders to invade Vo\u2019shun, is an eagerly perpetuated and not altogether false rumour that the colony is rife with communicable diseases that render its populace unsuitable for enslavement \u2013 and, unbeknownst to the bedraggled citizens of Hidden Hope, a curious edict put into law by Idonis Ardishapur himself, whose royal family has domain over Starkman Prime. Enacted shortly after Ardishapur scouts stumbled upon Vo\u2019shun a mere decade ago, the edict, not widely publicized or even understood by imperial lawyers \u2013 yet tacitly enforced nonetheless \u2013 states unconditionally that no further harm shall directly befall this shattered world.

This edict\u2019s name: Khadrea\u2019s Law.'
