Laeran (also known as Twenty-Eight Three[1b]) was the Homeworld of the Laer, non-humanoid xenos exterminated by the Emperor's Children during the 28th Expedition Fleet's campaign later known as the Cleansing of Laeran.[1a]
An Ocean World, the Laer's population centres were based on floating atolls made of a peculiar form of crystal coral. The atolls were holed by a myriad number of tunnels and burrows, with towering spires and narrow streets covering the surfaces. Flaring pillars of energy emerged from the centre of the atolls, directed downwards and upwards; it was theorized by the Adeptus Mechanicus that these pillars kept the atolls airborne. The glare of the energy pillars reflected in the crystal coral, combined with the shrieking of the wind whistling around the towers, made the Laeran atolls a disorienting place to the human senses.[1b]
