Sarelle is the fifth and second largest planet around [[Maea]] and the third largest planet in the [[Cnara System]]. As of the present day, it and its 31 moons are home to 14 trillion inhabitants (the vast majority of which are [[Carleans|Carlean]]). The planet's two major moons are Azelis and Erenne. |

Although some percentage of the population has advocated for creating artificial cosmetic rings around Sarelle, similar to [[Jupiter]] in the [[Sol System]], this has not happened as it has been deemed kind of pointless. However, Sarelle sort of has rings, made of the various orbital habitats, satellites, and other artificial structures. |

Sarelle formed as a massive rocky body which then attracted a large amount of hydrogen and helium, which increased its mass twentyfold. It then formed a huge disk which formed at least three generations of moons, the final generation containing the two Sarelleian Major Moons, Azelis and Erenne. |

The Carleans' first manned mission to Sarelle was in 74 AFO (4535 CE), to study the interesting icy moon of Azelis. Since then, the gas giant itself was only studied by probes for a while, until proper pressure-resistant manned spacecraft that could actually ascend were developed. |

Azelis is the larger moon of Sarelle, and the third body in the [[Cnara System]] with life. It has a thick ice shell with a kilometers-deep ocean beneath it, filled with life.

The first city to be established was known as simply Sarelle Colony A, but it was later named '''Fabula''' by its inhabitants. It was placed in the middle atmosphere a few hundred years after the first mission. Fabula has grown to become the capital of Sarelle.

Sarelle, the third largest planet in the Cnara System and fifth world orbiting Maea, is a major world of the nation of Illuin. As of the present day, it and its 29 moons are home to 14 trillion inhabitants spread through its sphere of influence, particularly on its two major moons Azelis and Erenne.
Population
Most of Sarelle's trillions of inhabitants live in orbital habitats rather than on a natural body, and most of those remaining live on one of Sarelle's two moons. However, there are still several billion individuals who live on floating cities in the planetary atmosphere. Each city is encased in a large dome to hold in the atmosphere and keep temperatures livable. Rather than using expensive and impractical antigravity technology, these cities operate like balloons deep in the atmosphere with the comparatively thin atmosphere inside making the structure less dense than it otherwise would.
The largest and oldest city, Fabula, has a population of over 13.5 million, but most cities on the planet are much smaller than this and are based around helium-3 "mining" plants.
Sarelle has a large set of rings, the only planet in the Cnara System to have them. These rings are protected from mining due to their status as a natural historic site.
History
Moons
Sarelle has two major moons, Azelis and Erenne.
Azelis

Azelis is the larger moon of Sarelle, and the third body in the Cnara System with life. It has a thick ice shell with a kilometers-deep ocean beneath it, filled with life. Its surface is covered in many cities, populated partially by researchers and miscellaneous people. Azelis' most major population center is Materica, a sprawling city across the center of the leading hemisphere.
Life
Azelis has a massive array of life forms, ranging from tiny bacteria to vast squid-like creatures prowling the dark waters. No intelligent life-forms have evolved in the oceans of Azelis as yet, although some of the squid-creatures have begun to show pre-sapient behavior.
Erenne

Erenne is the outer major moon of Sarelle. It is a rocky body, perhaps captured from the asteroid belt between Carlea and Sarelle. The moon is being mined due to its large concentrations of heavy metals, and may be terraformed.
Erenne is home to the headquarters of many mining conglomerates, which give the local population well-paying jobs remotely controlling the mining bots. Erenne plays host to the shipyards at Ascerai Planitia, assembling many impressive ships for the Illuin fleet.

Rings


Sarelle has a large set of rings, created by the breakup of a medium-sized moon. These rings, originally believed to be two extra planets, are extraordinarily complex, with millions of thin ringlets and gaps carved out by tiny asteroids and resonances with the two large moons.
The largest shepherd moon, Yoro, is the site of an expensive hotel that is one of the largest tourist attractions in the UNF.
