Star Wars: Dawn of Rebellion The Visual Guide, a new visual guide charting the dark times after the fall of the Republic and the establishment of the Empire through authoritative text, by Pablo Hidalgo and Emily Shkoukani is out now.
The book starts off with a galactic map, and while we couldn’t place all the new star systems on the map just yet, Ferrix did have a spot. Its placement stems from discussions during production, as the question came up from the show’s graphics team and I was lore advisor on Andor. For the book, I fished out an old email from February of 2021, where we confirmed it was in the Morlani system, neighboring Preox-Morlana.
This explains Preox-Morlana’s jurisdiction there, at least until Inspector Syril Karn royally screws up a raid and the Empire annexes the system and the entire ‘Free Trade Sector’ it operates in. I figured the Free Trade Sector was a classification, not a proper cartographic name. Basically, the Empire reclaims an extension of the classic Corporate Sector introduced in Han Solo at Stars’ End (1979). – PH
