The Freya sector located in Aragoth is called by some the ancient gateway to the universe. Located on the non Sol side of Akerons Gate it is used by pilots as a way to reach interior sectors of the Aragoth System, the Alpha Centauri System, and the Nifleheim Cloud. As with all sectors in Aragoth system it carries the name that comes from Norse Mythology. The exact meaning of all the elements of this sector can be found here: Encyclopedia of Norse Mythology.

Freya is located near the the Nifleheim Cloud, in fact pilots can see the brown dwarf in the distance from within the sector. The sector is based around a small ice world for which the sector is named after. Around planet Freya lies it's four moons Falk, Siedr, Folksang, and Brisings. Falk is a small moon with areas of ice on it, Siedr is an asteroid that has been encased in ice, Folksang and Brisings both appear to be large asteroids that have been caught in the planets orbit. The rest of the sector mostly is rather void of natural features except for large ore fields scattered throughout the sector.

The sector is home to several species of creatures. Small squid like creatures called Mist Runners and Mist Lords can be found floating in the ore fields to the south of the planet. You can also find the strange Ostrea species that seems to be the dominate species throughout Aragoth. Naglfar's can be found at the side of the sector closest to the Nifleheim Cloud. This is no doubt due to the promixity to their native habitate in the orbit of Modi. For more information on the Naglfar please read the information about the Nifleheim Cloud sector.

As Freya is a central sector to get to many other parts of the galaxy one can find many different human races and political groups flying around. The sector seems to be a hotbed of Pirate activity. Not only have the notorious Red Dragons been seen in the area, but also the Chavez clan of pirates. Several innocent pilots have died as a result of being caught in the middle of a spontaneous battles between the rivals. In addition to both of the most famous Pirate groups members of the Jenquai Cult can be seen scouting the area just to the east of Planet Freya. Finally if one is not careful they could run across the militant Psionics known as Anseria.

It is known that the current leader of the Red Dragons Shou Tzu is responsible for introducing the Anseria to Freya and Aragoth. His intention in doing so have never been made clear though it is one of the few things the leader admits was a bad decision.

As with many of the areas in the known galaxy the historical records detailing the events surrounding the sector have been lost. We know that Freya was the first sector that humans arrived in Aragoth. When Akerons Gate near Pluto was uncovered the Jenquai set a group of explorers though the gate on a long expiditon to explore the uncharted system. Akerons Gate leads from Sol into Freya so the sector would of had to been the first thing area the explorers  investigated.

If one surveys the area around the planet they will come across two wrecks. The first is that of the Jenquai ship the Nisharu Maru. It is unclear what the fate of this ship was though speculation seems to point that it was part of the original expedition party. The second wreck is the Gaius wreck. Not much is known about this ship.  Pilots flying out to wreck are warned to exercise extreme caution as the site is surrounded by the Ancient Guardians known as Zenshai. The Zenshai were one of the creatures that the original Jenquai expedition noticed remain heavily around sites that contained some sort of ancient ruin or object. The Zenshai seem to have formed a circle around the wreck of the Gaius, almost as if protecting it from intruders. It is very possible that the Gaius is the wreck of an ancient space craft the Zenshai are sworn to protect.

Just to the North of the planet is a listening post that is believed to have been set up by the first Jenquai expedition to keep watch over the sector and warn of any Terran or Progen intruders. The listening post was originally hidden in a holographic image of an asteroid but with age the satellites power supply has become weaker exposing the device. The listening post was abandoned when the gate war ended and Akerons Gate became open to all races. As such no attempt has been made to repair the aging spy satellite.

As Akerons Gate was the first gate to allow us to reach great distances the Terran and Progen races quickly used to to expand their empires. The Terrans have used it to build access to the Alpha Centauri System. While EarthCorps and Infiniticorp were colonizing Alpha Centauri, the terran race known as the Freespacers expanded into Ragnarok, and the Progens started to expand into Jotenheim. It is also believed that at a later date the Progens also opened access into the Nifleheim Cloud for use as a top secret training area.
