During the [[Reef Wars]], it was the site of the Battle of Iris. Following the tragic Raze of [[Amethyst]], Paladin [[Abra Zire]] pursued [[Drevis, Wolf Baroness]] to Iris, but unbeknownst to Zire, Drevis used Iris' intense brightness as cover to escape. When Zire encountered a [[Ketch]] above Iris, she assumed it was Drevis' ship and ordered her squadron to open fire. By the time Zire discovered she had eliminated [[Parixas, the Howling]], one of the claimants to the vacant [[Kell|Kellship]] of the [[House of Wolves]], instead of Drevis, the cunning Wolf was long gone. | During the [[Reef Wars]], it was the site of the Battle of Iris.

The incident had been staged by another Wolf claimant, [[Skolas, Kell of Kells|Skolas, the Rabid]], who ordered his minion [[Grayor, Wolf Assassin]] to lure Parixas to Iris at the same time Drevis attacked Amethyst. Although the [[Awoken]] had killed a powerful figure in the House of Wolves, the Battle of Iris was regarded as a strategic defeat due to Drevis' escape. | The incident had been staged by another Wolf claimant, [[Skolas, Kell of Kells|Skolas, the Rabid]], who ordered his minion [[Grayor, Wolf Assassin]] to lure Parixas to Iris at the same time Drevis attacked Amethyst.

Iris was named after the rainbow goddess Iris in Greek mythology, who was a messenger to the gods, especially Hera. Her quality of attendant of Hera was particularly appropriate to the circumstances of discovery, as she was spotted following 3 Juno by less than an hour of right ascension (Juno is the Roman equivalent of Hera). | *Iris was named after the rainbow goddess Iris in Greek mythology, who was a messenger to the gods, especially Hera.
