The station was brought to the Calixus Sector as part of the Angevin Crusade (322.M39) as a forward base.
Contact with the station is lost during the ebb and flow of the Crusade (331.M39) and thought destroyed.
The station was rediscovered by Rogue Trader Jacoby Meddington (552.M39) and claimed for the Meddington Dynasty.
By 600.M39, the station is under the effective control of the Imperial Navy.
- Due to litigation (and fights) the Navy never actually paid the "seizure" fee to the Meddington Dynasty.
A marriage alliance occurs between Rhett Meddington and Noella Drake. (622.M39)
The last member of the Meddington dynasty is declared lost in the Expanse. (866.M39)
Control of Lycurgus station, like Port Wander and others, are slowly handed over to civilian authorities as part of Navy restructuring. (~100.M40)
Severen XIII moves to bring the station closer under the subsector government's direct control. (~750.M40)

Strategic Attempt: Lord General Ghanzorik petitions the Astartes to takedown the strategically critical station. The request is turned down.
Poor Alternative: The Death Spectres Chapter offers to send a team to destroy the Lycurgos station. The Lord General turns down the offer.
Modest Request: Lord General Ghanzorik attempts a more modest request, petitioning the Astartes to spearhead a landing for Millitarum Troops. The request is turned down.
The Navy back an attempt to overwhelm and secure a landing of the Lycurgos station. The light cruiser Argonaught is destroyed and several cruisers are crippled before the general retreat is called. No ship ever got close enough to force a docking.
After a few months of skirmishes, the 1047 Vastyoan attempts an assault by boarding shuttle with orders to secure a beachhead for the 616 Kreig, who had just transferred to Calixus. Despite a valiant attempt by Navy pilots, the few shuttles that survived until landing struck disparate parts of the station. The entire 1047th Vastyoan was marytered. (Dominica has this after-action report.)

The station is in the firm control of the Dominate, under the command of General Frederique Constantine. The Constantine family is known to have been in the Severan court from before the succession.
The population of the station seems to be reduced to a significant detachment of the Severan Legion and essential dock personnel, without the extra bustle of civilian commerce exchange.
The station contains Adaptable Manufactorums, able to produce a wide variety of manufactured goods. It appears to have been recently used to create STC pattern lasguns.
The station, at least at the time of the secession, was considered a typical example of the sanctified Ramilies design. (Like Port Wraith, unlike Port Wander.)
The station receives regular shuttle shipments of agriculture from Helena II. The station also (reportedly) receives Severan convoys on an irregular, about a weekly basis. Mostly these convoys bring in materials and are loaded with agricultural produce bound for the rest of the Dominate.
The station has the ability to perform dock repairs for nearly any class of imperial vessel, though none were undergoing service when Redbeard visited.

The people and infrastructure discovered on the planet make for a good start, but more will be needed to reach true establishment.
Specialized equipment will be necessary to extract the biologics at a commercially valuable level.

The system housing Killian's Rest is an unregistered one located in a dark area of the Markayn Marches, which places it within the bounds of Calixis Sector.
The Mechanicus jealously guard the skills needed to refine, transport, and apply rejuve treatments.

Something that was witnessed by the captured Navigator has Arcturos extremely conserned.
He requested that the party recover a particular codex from the lost home of a 'retired' inquisitor.
Septimus Strophes noted that Inquistior Arcturos departed for a distant sector on the far side of the Periphery Subsector
