Sunnydale was out on the end of a nice little trade route back before The War started. Ships took the Alpha Centauri-Tranquility Run, took the next run to Unity, and then completed the final hop to Sunnydale. One hundred and nine lightyears of hyperspace compared to ninety-four lightyears of normalspace. That’s a real direct route let me tell you. And once in Sunnydale, traders could branch off to all the little systems in the neighborhood. The Chinese and the Shang took most of them out during The War, but Sunnydale was still on the end of that nice little direct route back home. And our best ships could maintain an effective one thousand lights all the way into Sunnydale. It was the fastest route to the Hyades Cluster that we controlled. That’s why Sunnydale was worth everything we sunk into it.
