History
The star system of Vega is the original home of the Citadel and was the base of operations for the Omega Men. Vega is home to the Psions, an alien race who were experimented upon by the Maltusians. In time, they learned how to master the technology the Maltusians left behind when they immigrated to Oa. When the Psions tried to make contact with their creators, the Guardians of the Universe expressed remorse over their actions and disappointment that the Psions had not learned any understanding from the technology. They sent them to Vega in the hopes that could develop in peace, but the Psions grew to hate the Guardians. To prevent any further interference on their part, the Guardians added a law to the Book of Oa forbidding them and their agents, the Green Lantern Corps, to enter the Vega system. As a result, the system became a refuge for criminals and aggressive entities. Vega is also of critical importance to the activites of the Spider Guild and represents a major Guild nest.
Just prior to the War of Light, it was revealed that the realize reason that Vega was forbidden was due to a deal made with Agent Orange, the wielder of the orange light of avarice. The pact stipulated that Guardians would not enter Vega while Larfleeze would be allowed to wield the Orange light in peace, as long as it stayed buried on Okaara.[1] When Larfleeze declared the treaty null and void, the Guardians enacted the Fourth Law in the Book of Oa, which provided them jursidiction in the Vega star system. This brought them and the Green Lantern Corps into conflict with the Orange Lantern Corps. [2]
