Pyre is a large planet. It has many heavy metals on its surface and is mined frequently. This leads to it being a key mining location.

Template:!World InfoboxThe innermost planet of Maea in the Cnara System, Pyre is among the most hostile worlds in the universe. Everywhere on the surface is either dead rock often hot enough to glow or open gashes in the crustal material filled with upwelled lava with the consistency of hot taffy. In the early days of Florathelian civilization, ancient Erlas mined the planet to assemble many orbital structures, due to its high concentrations of very rare elements.
Differentiating it from most such airless hellworlds, bizarre silicon-based life exists in Pyre's lava oceans, slowly squeezing through its viscous fluid. This wacky form of life is unique in the region, and it is unknown how it initially evolved. As such, many scientists have settled in research sites on the planet.
Pyre's volcanoes spew out vast plumes of hot gases hundreds of kilometers over the planetary surface, producing a beautiful sight from orbiting stations by refracting light from the scarily large disk of Maea into a rainbow of colors and forming complicated hazards that infrastructure has to avoid or shield against.
