	The most notable Dionae ~~faction~~ within the [[Coalition of Colonies]], the Narrows, is a large supplier of mined ore and their refined products, from metal alloys to fuels, making up a small but considerable share of the Coalition's metal and alloys market. However, due to the Narrows’ links with [[Hephaestus Industries]] and the Narrows’ disastrous impact on a number of otherwise flourishing exoplanets, it often finds itself at the centre of discussions on mining regulation, with a representative occasionally summoned before the House of Members. [[Hephaestus Industries]] continues to fiercely back the Narrows to ensure they can continue to mine where they wishes. [[Himeo]], naturally, is often the most vocal member state which calls for the ejection of the Narrows from the Coalition space, claiming it is self-sufficient enough to leave permanently.

	The Narrows has become one of the most profitable enterprises undertaken by the megacorporation; though different from its original intention. Despite the unforeseen losses incurred by [[Hephaestus Industries]], the leadership of the Helmsman of the United Drill has proven to be a lucrative advantage, especially since rejoining the megacorporation as they journey throughout the [[Coalition of Colonies]] – engaging in resource extraction and refining before selling their surpluses at a significantly discounted rate to Hephaestus Industries, who also gets a cut of the profit should the Narrows fill the quotas set by the Coalition. The megacorporation has expressed a desire to expand the fleet, and formally incorporate them as a subsidiary within their ranks, but has not yet revealed when they plan to do so, or if it merely shall continue to persist as a possible idea.

Those from this Octave, befitting their rank, are afforded the largest refitted cells to reside within and have the luxury to share their cell with no one. Additionally, 5th Octaves have total control over their Block’s ~~Biocomputer Library~~ Terminal; the Captain has their own Terminal in their room for Captain’s logs and personal use. The position of Captain is the highest position in the ship’s chain of command. Originally established by Helmsman of the United Drill, the Captain is able to use their executive powers to veto any decisions made by the Overseers or make any new edict they see fit, however, they generally will refer to the Overseers for their input on decisions based on their experiences. The position is held by the Dionae until they can no longer work or retire, however, since the role’s inception, it has been held by the Helmsman Of The United Drill. The Overseers make up the heads of each department, with each Block having one Overseer at the top of its command chain. Currently, there are four Overseer positions together forming the ship’s Council of Overseers. Much like the Captain, the positions are held until either the Dionae is unable to work or they decide to retire, and much like the Captain none of the Dionae in an Overseer position has become too old to work or retired.

	Under the watch of [[Hephaestus Industries]] and the Council of Overseers, the ship’s crew have diligently continued mining operations in and around the Orezela System. With Hephaestus’ support, the Narrows has since signed several contracts with the [[Coalition of Colonies]], becoming one of the more well-known contractors for the sovereign state, which the vessel now relies on for protection and ease of access to trade ports. The Narrows continue to mine to meet quotas for Hephaestus. However, due to the massive surplus owed to the Narrows’ efficiency and prowess, a considerable amount of mined resources and refined metals flow from the vessel and into Coalition ports. In 2432 CE, the Council of Overseers, deeming the Narrows fully capable and provisioned, opened the gates for allowing Narrows Dionae to work off the vessel. Today, Narrows Dionae can be found in skilled positions at many facilities with a Hephaestus ~~or Coalition~~ presence.
