The Caves of Molten steel, Fringeborn Hell, CX-607
Yeah we lost men, we always lose men. How we survive? Well we dont do we,
they import new men.

Tretich 5 is a mining colony mere hours of warptravel from Footfall. The
colony was created by the Scourge dynasty and sold to the Disciples of
Thule. The mine is a very rich one able to provide steel, silver and even
adamantium to the Lathe worlds. It is however as dangerous as it is rich, it
orbits very close to its star causing the mines to be less cavern systems and
more hellish nightmares of flowing metal. The casualty rates are extreme
and few miners survive a whole week of service, the gains are however high
enough to keep more recruits coming.
As Tretich 5 is an official world it was decided that it must pay tithes just as
any other, people who survive a full month are thus rewarded with a
retirement to the Imperial Guard, something that seems most appealing
after a few days of work.
