A '''thema''' was a semi-physical and logical division of the [[Milky Way|galaxy]] created by the [[Forerunner]]s to segment their [[ecumene]]. Each thema contained a number of star systems. A thema was bordered by massive rippling magnetic fields of a galactic scale.

Forerunner displays simplified and projected the complex variability of a thema boundary as a curtain of colored light. These borders were detectable in normal space and [[slipspace]]. From the projected color of the field and the vortices within it, the overall health of slipspace could be determined.{{Ref/Reuse|S27}}

A thema or [[margin arc]] infested by the [[Flood]] was known as a [[Burn]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=S5|Sil|Chapter=String 5}} By the end of the [[Forerunner-Flood war]], the boundaries of themas became more unstable as the [[Precursor]] constructs used by the Flood gradually converted slipspace to become incompatible with Forerunner slipspace drives.{{Ref/Reuse|S27}}
