This binary system belongs to the Border Worlds and lies at the edge of the Crow nebula, in one of the most spectacular settings in the Sirius sector. The Edge Nebula sweeps across the eastern horizon, tendrils of it intertwining with the eastern edge of the Crow Nebula. A swirling world of blue and green, this is a relatively recently opened system, first discovered by GMG miners in 550 AS, searching for new deposits to replace the gradually diminishing supplies in Sigma-13. It soon became their richest grounds, its only disadvantage being a very long distance to market -- the Jump Hole that traversed the gap to Sigma-13 was too small and unstable for large commercial transports. The GMG, tired of their unequal relationship with Samura, turned to Kishiro. In exchange for 50% financing of a Jump Gate from Honshu to Sigma-19, they gave half the gas mining rights in Sigma-19 to Kishiro. The gate was built in 650 A.S., marking a turning point in the relations of GMG and the two Kusari industrial giants. Samura looked on nervously as their 300 year old monopoly with the GMG began to crumble. The newly constructed joint GMG/Kishiro base of Ogashawa is now the second largest H-fuel shipping platform, after Samura's massive Osaka facility.
In recent times it is this System that is more and more being used for tourism; this being the reason why the Luxury Liner Hawaii is here now. This beautiful ship is often used by both ASF (Alliance Star Fleet) and CSF (Confederated Strike Force) pilots who must obey just one condition before boarding: hostility between them will be put on hold while spending time in the Sigma-19 System. A few crazy pilots tried to start skirmishes, but they were soon after found floating in space without a ship or a spacesuit. This "news" spread rapidly throughout space to great effect.
