Arcadian Valley
Short Description
Arcadian Valley is a major lowland expanse on the planetoid Nessus, characterized by extensive terrain deformation and pervasive machine-architecture of Vex origin. Long-range scans identify repeating angular structures embedded in rock and soil, energy signatures inconsistent with natural formation, and localized distortions suggesting active environmental manipulation. The region exhibits dense concentrations of Vex activity, with constructs integrated directly into the landscape rather than occupying it, indicating long-term alteration rather than recent incursion. The valley is considered unstable, hostile, and of high strategic interest due to its persistent machine presence and unexplained spatial anomalies.
Sites
Artifact's Edge
Artifact’s Edge is an exposed approach zone in Arcadian Valley where Vex geometry ruptures the surface and hostile movement is constant.
Hallows
The Hallows is a sunken Nessus region where Vex conversion dominates the terrain, forming enclosed passages and unstable, machine-shaped caverns.
Sunken Cavern
The Sunken Cavern is a deep, Vex-converted hollow beneath Arcadian Valley, where machine structures and stone collapse into layered depths.
Well of Giants
The Well of Giants is a vast Vex-controlled chamber on Nessus where massive constructs converge to anchor portals and stabilize network traffic.Map
