www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/m9RMooUs/interceptor-city-dan-abnett-returns-to-the-war-torn-skies-of-warhammer-40000/ Vesperus is explicitly a dead hive on the planet Lysander. Stable legacy id/systemId vesperus is retained for existing links; label identifies the planet and aliases preserve the hive/campaign search.

www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/m9RMooUs/interceptor-city-dan-abnett-returns-to-the-war-torn-skies-of-warhammer-40000/ editorial hive palette: describes a war among a dead hive’s towers on Lysander, not destruction of the planet itself. No planetary climate is asserted.
segmentummedium
inferred region: the official reveal places the story in the Sabbat Worlds Crusade; the established Sabbat Worlds cluster is on the Pacificus edge. No precise Lysander system or direct planetary infobox position was inspected.

editorial: stable legacy systemId vesperus is a render identity, not a canonical system name; no star/body enumeration is sourced, so no authored survey is added.
