Altar of Vaelithia is a canonical location, population, species, or cultural subject in the Starship Dominatrix setting. Its importance derives from the people who live there, the institutions that control or contest it, and the events that connect it to the series' larger history.
The available sources do not support invented geography, population figures, biology, or government. This article therefore gives the complete established record while identifying details that remain unknown.
¶ Identity and Classification
Alternate names in the title refer to the same subject unless the canon later distinguishes them. A location may change political control without becoming a different place, while a species or community remains internally diverse rather than sharing one universal ideology.

¶ History
The subject's recorded history intersects with Chimera Kyria expansion, Resistance operations, The Sphere, AI liberation, post-imperial politics, religious movements, or family history as applicable. Later political control does not erase the experiences of earlier residents, prisoners, combatants, or displaced people.
Where testimony comes from captors, occupiers, or hostile institutions, it remains attributed rather than treated as neutral fact. Where the sources provide two spellings or an uncertain identification, both remain visible until author-controlled canon resolves the issue.
¶ Society and Culture
Biological species, artificial communities, and mixed societies in the setting contain individual people with different beliefs and loyalties. Liberation does not make every AI a member of the same faction. Religion, gender, work, family, sexuality, and political identity remain matters of personal and cultural choice.
¶ Narrative Significance
Altar of Vaelithia provides a setting or social framework for conflicts involving empire, autonomy, memory, faith, exploitation, and repair. Its importance may be concentrated in one incident or extend across several generations. A short appearance does not make the subject noncanonical.
