Gira Gira

Gira Gira is a zombie of a star. It swallowed Aylathiya's only neutron star eleven million years ago, dramatically reducing its lifespan and increasing its activity. Surrounding the star is a series of rings whose purpose is mostly unknown. While some hypothesize that they serve to stabilize the star, their mysterious magnetic fields are not well understood. The largest and most massive ring is Phaethon, a ring which remotely transmits power toward Eos through ancient lost technology.

In more recent years, Gira Gira has been the site of many mining rushes, focused on Mythride elements. The Mythrides are the most massive known elements on the Periodic Table. Most of the rushes have been triggered by Eitr, Orichalcum, Mythril, and Ousium. To this day, intrepid miners brave Gira Gira's radiation to scrape together mere grams of these ultra-heavy elements.

Gira Gira is far from most other stars, orbiting Cosmoria's center on a long slow orbit. Currently, Gira Gira is closest to Aylathiya, buts its orbit takes it on a grand tour of Cosmoria every hundred thousand years. The planets Hathia and Yvysil, two rogue planets orbiting the Cosmoria core directly, have, for the past few thousand years, been made fairly habitable by close encounters to Gira Gira. This situation leads many to consider them as honorary planets "orbiting" hundreds of AU away even if these orbits are highly temporal. Even so, millions call these worlds home, but most born in the system tend to leave for elsewhere.

Elisa

Elisa is a semi-constructed world orbiting within Gira Gira's corona. Were it not for a skeletal structure of Resolute Bronze, the planet would have disintegrated long ago. Trailing the planet are long tendrils, presumably broken down portions of its skeleton. While Elisa's purpose is unknown, it was likely created by the Hyperion civilization. A large accumulation of plasma surrounds the world, creating stunning aurorae across the system as its plasma cloud sweep across it. This plasma causes communication issues, only furthering Gira Gira's hostile environment.

Taek

Taek is a desert world whose inert atmosphere of nitrogen and noble gases makes it the perfect environment for its native Loresavt. While the surface is empty save for scientific outposts, over a kilometer beneath the surface the planet is bustling with activity. Hyperion created the planet-spanning factory beneath Taek to repair its megastructures, including the all-important Eos, their crowned jewel. Researches from throughout Aylathiya research Taek's inhabitants to learn their manufacturing and repairing process. Several of these ancient techniques have been used in modern manufacturing the universe over.

Hathia

Hathia was the first victim of Marred Life, a phenomenon in which Ma'eau created life in a state of madness. The result was a creative but inefficient ecosystem, one in which the conventional rules of biology hardly apply. Creatures perpetually burning, drowning, decaying, and otherwise succumbing dominate the ecosystem. Decay is a part of the life cycle of many creatures, especially the Molkor, the apex predator on Hathia. With advanced intellect, they quickly conquered the domesticated this hostile world. They strove to fight against the contradictions in their genetic code, a testament to their sheer resilience.

Hathia's distance from Gira Gira, at over 650 AU, precludes it from being a proper planet. It is officially a rogue planet whose slow rotation effectively creates a moving region of comfortable temperatures over the centuries its been warmed by Gira Gira.

Yvysil

Yvysil is a rogue world normally dominated by an endless sea of ice. With only a few volcanic islands barely poking through the surface, Yvysil would normally be an icy world. Its proximity to Gira Gira has melted its oceans, creating a band of liquid water. Much like the rest of Gira Gira, the planet has ruins from the Hyperion civilization. In this case, a massive tabulating machine whom the inhabitants worship, called Delyatu. The denizens of Yvysil constantly feed information, via punch card, into the machine and have it generate orders. Surprisingly, the result has been a somewhat well-run planet. Yvysil has miraculously remained independent for as long as it has obeyed Delyatu.
