	The earliest documented reference to Raxxla dates to 2296 and originates from an entry in the personal journal of Art Tornqvist, a shipboard mechanic based out of [[Tau Ceti]]. The entry does not describe Raxxla or its possible whereabouts, but its existence is evidence that the Raxxla legend was already in the public consciousness by that time.<ref name="KB-R" />

	In some versions of the Raxxla story, which were later shown to have a striking resemblance to the children's story "Princess Astrophel and the Spiralling Stars" (see Wikipedia: ''[[Wikipedia:Astrophel and Stella\|Astrophel and Stella]]'') and consequently became discredited, Raxxla is said to hold an alien artefact called the Omphalos Rift, which acts as a gateway to parallel universes. Even after it was discredited, staunch supporters of the Omphalos Rift theory insist that the author of the children's story had knowledge of Raxxla's exact location and deliberately wove clues into his book. Other Raxxla seekers claim that Raxxla is something else entirely, with theories running the gamut from an unremarkable moon to a state of cosmic enlightenment.<ref name="KB-R" />

	A number of conspiracy theories assert that Raxxla has already been discovered by either a sinister cabal or a lone individual who has harnessed Raxxla's power to become the shadow ruler of all of humanity.<ref name="KB-R" />

	Students and commentators of Raxxla lore have noted that the legend of Raxxla is unusually influential, often leading Raxxla seekers to become singularly obsessed with it. This has been compared to the concept of "[[wikt:fernweh\|fernweh]]", which is experienced as an inexplicable longing for a place that an individual has never seen.<ref name="KB-R" />

			== Codex Entry ==
			''The following is the RAXXLA entry from the Elite Dangerous Codex, available in-game.''

			"To the jewel that burns on the brow of the mother of galaxies! To the whisperer in witch-space, the
			siren of the deepest void! The parent's grief, the lover's woe, and the yearning of our vagabond
			hearts. To Raxxla!"

			— Alleged toast of the Dark Wheel

			The legend of Raxxla has been circulating, in whispers, for centuries. The quest for this mysterious
			place, the location of which is a deadly secret, was said to be the principal aim of the Dark Wheel, a
			putative fraternity of legend-chasers from the early days of interstellar travel.

			The earliest recorded mention of Raxxla dates from 2296, from the journal of Art Tornqvist, a
			shipboard mechanic based in the Tau Ceti system. He writes: 'Cora comes home soused and raving
			with wild stories, a new one every night. She claims she's found a map to some pirate stash, and all
			have to do is loan her my ship so we can go dig it up. Maybe we should go find Raxxla while we're a
			it!' Although Tornqvist's account is the first known attestation of Raxxla, it is clear from context that
			the myth was already in circulation.

			It is extremely difficult to find consistency among the various fragmentary rumours of Raxxla. Much
			like the ancient myths of Atlantis, El Dorado and the kingdom of Prester John, interpretations of the
			story range from the sceptical to the outlandish: Raxxla has been suggested to be anything from an
			unremarkable moon to a state of cosmic enlightenment. The earliest documented stories tend to
			agree on several points, however: that Raxxla is a definite place, and that it holds a mystical secret.

			Several versions of the Raxxla story mention an alien artefact, the Omphalos Rift, described as a
			gateway or tunnel through which parallel universes can be accessed. These details, however, were
			later shown to bear a striking resemblance to the children's story Princess Astrophel and the
			Spiralling Stars, and soon lost credibility. Undaunted, some Raxxla seekers insisted that the story's
			author had cunningly concealed facts about the mysterious locale in his book as hints for those with
			eyes to see.

			Students of Raxxla lore have noted that the legend exerts a strangely potent fascination on the
			minds of seekers. Commentators have compared this sensation to 'fernweh', the unaccountable
			longing for a place one has never seen. More than one interstellar treasure-seeker has become
			obsessed with Raxxla to the exclusion of all other dreams, and spent his or her entire life in a futile
			search for it.

			Raxxla also plays a role in several conspiracy theories, most of which attest that it has already been
			discovered by some kind of sinister cabal (or sole tyrant), which has leveraged its power to establish
			covert dominance over humanity.

			Whatever the truth of the matter, one thing remains irrefutable: the legend of Raxxla continues to
			inspire explorers and conspiracy theorists to this day.
