imperium
Shrine world of the Order of the Wounded Heart, invaded by a Nurgle plague-fleet
A hot, arid shrine world of the Ras Subsector, held by the Sisters of Battle of the Order of the Wounded Heart since M37 from the mountain city of Hjec Aleja and its Cathedral of Blessed Alexia. In late M41, after the Adulators Chapter withdraws its protection, a plague-fleet of Nurgle lands an army there; the Space Wolves send Járnhamar Pack to its aid (Blood of Asaheim), and the Rune Priest Njal Stormcaller and an Ecclesiarchy force follow (Stormcaller).

wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Ras_Shakeh (read 2026-10-12 with fetch-page.mjs, citing Blood of Asaheim (Novel), Chapters Three to Eleven): 'Ras Shakeh is a Shrine World of the Imperium, governed by the Adepta Sororitas of the Order of the Wounded Heart since M37'; infobox Subsector 'Ras Subsector', System 'Ras Shakeh System', Class 'Shrine World', Segmentum and Sector blank; notable locations Hjec Aleja, the Cathedral of Blessed Alexia, Halicon Citadel, Ighala Gate, Jedaj. Also https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Hjec_Aleja ('a city on the planet Ras Shakeh … Built on a series of mountains', Chapters Nine and Ten) and Black Library's own description ('an important shrine world'). A planet. NAME-COLLISION CHECK: no index record uses the id or label.
book-joinhigh
PRIMARY for Blood of Asaheim: Lexicanum's chapter-cited synopsis and its Ras_Shakeh, Hjec_Aleja and Járnhamar_Pack articles set the void-battle over the world (Chapters 6-8) and the whole defence of Hjec Aleja (Chapters 9-23) there. PRIMARY for Stormcaller too: Lexicanum Járnhamar_Pack (section 'The Stormcaller', Chapters 1-7) sets the breakout from besieged Hjec Aleja, the arrival of Njal Stormcaller and Cardinal Delvaux, and the Ecclesiarchy purges there; Black Library's description opens on 'the plague-wracked world of Ras Shakeh'.
segmentumhigh
null, stated rather than guessed: Lexicanum names only the Ras Subsector and the Ras Shakeh System and leaves Segmentum and Sector blank (category 'Segmentum Unknown').
classmedium
'desert', by the look: Lexicanum Ras_Shakeh, Geography, 'Ras Shakeh was noted for its hot, arid climate' (Chapter Eleven), with a mountain city. Not 'shrine': that is its Imperial classification (the infobox tag), and the palette is chosen from the page's terrain words, not the tag.
gposlow
inferred: named and unplaced, with no segmentum, sector, bearing or theatre published (only a subsector and system name). Unsurveyed rim: rim_xy('ras-shakeh') = [394.2, 75.6] (the generator's function evaluated on its own, reproducing nurades's [574.2, 926.7] and argo-secundus's [899.7, 700.0]; build_locations.py not run). The position carries no information. Z -8.8 is the zPolicy value (compute-z.mjs ras-shakeh 394.2 75.6).
erasmedium
m41 only: Lexicanum Uwe_Bajola, 'in late M41 when the planet was attacked by Chaos forces aligned to the Chaos God Nurgle'. Allegiance 'imperium' (Ecclesiarchy). No permitted page states its fate after the novels, so no later era is authored. Lexicanum Njal_Stormcaller (Stormcaller, Chapter 6): 'Around the same time as the 13th Black Crusade, Njal Stormcaller accompanied an Ecclesiarchy fleet to Ras Shakeh'.
systemIdmedium
'ras-shakeh', after Lexicanum's 'Ras Shakeh System'.
