Lyriax

Lyriax is an Imperial-catalogued world in the Segmentum Tempestus that the Aeldari monitor; it is neither a Craftworld nor an Exodite world. It appears as a map entry in the Psychic Awakening material and is placed here within the lyriax system.

Fifth-edition galaxy maps and the Phoenix Rising publication both mark Lyriax as a location that Aeldari farseers track after the opening of the Rift. No published novel sets a crusade there, and the Imperium’s own gazetteer records little concerning it. The Aeldari interest is therefore the principal documented feature of the world. No Phoenix Lord engagement is attributed to it in this record.

Lyriax remains significant as a named world under Aeldari observation. Unofficial summaries retain its parent system in the Segmentum Tempestus, decline to classify it as a Craftworld, and keep it distinct from Iathglas and Saim-Hann.
