Aghoru / Ark Reach Cluster

Fig. 1 · Location on the map

Aghoru is a desert world with a colossal Mountain, a legacy of vanished xenos, where the Thousand Sons fought the Battle of the Mountain. Nearby lies the Ark Reach Cluster — six trade-linked systems brought to Compliance by the Word Bearers, Space Wolves and Thousand Sons; the last to fall was Shrike (Ark Reach Secundus). The opening of the novel “A Thousand Sons”; the segmentum is not given in the canon.
