Overview

A fable as old as space travel itself. Popular opiniong has it tagged as a planet, but no one has ever seen it or been to it. Infact, it's very existence is disputable, spread by rumour through bars on the edge of space during the height of the Thargoid Wars.

Myths

There are many myths surrounding Raxxla. Some of them include:

  • That it is a planet, older than the Galaxy itself.
  • It is a gateway to different dimensions and time (as explained in Drew Wagar's follow up novella Mutabilis).
  • INRA has a base established on the planet, thus allowing them access to the gateways above; this has featured in much FEU, such as Jason Togneri's Darkness Falls.

Hunt for the Pot of Gold

Like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, many have tried to find Raxxla. No one has yet to succeed, or return from such an expedition. If someone starts acting strange, people often scoff in their direction, saying: "They'll be looking for Raxxla next."

Reality

When such legendary myths are interwined with talk of INRA, there is only one thing you can believe: Don't believe everything you hear. The sad fact is that you will only ever find out the truth if you are a member of INRA and then you wont be able to tell anyone.
