The system know as Riven is a well-developed system that lies remotely located, making it a good place to hunt for enemy shipping. It is a dual system, with two separate inhabited planetary systems. Total of four major worlds; one hive, one paradise, one forge, and one agricultural.

The Riven system proved good hunting grounds from the Bringer of Faith, but most of the intrasystem ships are not warp-capable (and thus low-priority targets).
