Line 57:
One of the largest stations in the belt, built within and around the asteroid Kirs 229-A. The station is made up of a large docking ring connected to an extensive tunnel network within the asteroid. Kirs has over the years become an extremely busy port, with traders from the Commonwealth nearby planets and all across the belt coming to ply their wares. The port is technically independent, and tariffs that would otherwise be required at a Commonwealth port don’t apply here; however, the port authority must pay an annual tribute to the Commonwealth in order to retain their independence.
For years the Commonwealth suspected the port of harbouring pirates and smugglers, but all investigations on Kirs authorities resulted in no evidence being found, and there have even been cases of Kirs officials handing over outlaws to the [[Commonwealth
Recently Kirs officials sealed off parts of the station as a response to a not better defined “accident”. Local authorities have refused any offers of help from the Commonwealth but have still yet to unseal the sections of the station. It's unclear what warranted the undertaking of such dramatic measures, but rumours are beginning to circulate regarding what has happened in the station, ranging from a toxic gas leak to an infestation of mind controlling parasites.
