History of the Kâur Ruomâqi

The Kâur Ruomâqi was constructed at the Otâmovi Wiy Jael (Silver Moon Sect) and brought to its current location in sections. It went online in the middle of 754 CY. The persons assigned to the design team were charged to make a facility that could handle 'aliens' and provide all the requirements of a checkpoint. It was decided during the design that the Kâur Ruomâqi would be different from other Clan structure in that it would be unarmed. Its defense is handled by several rotating squadrons.
