Nocturne is a large black hole located on the border between [[Aylathiya]] and [[Florathel]]. Its four companion stars and one dozen frigid planets have long been disunited. Nations from across Cosmoria have laid claim to Nocturne's untamed system. When [[Sagittarium]] briefly united the endless realms around Nocturne, it was a terrifying empire unmatched by any other. As Sagittarium fell, its client worlds have slowly been taken from it. Currently, there are five major nations that reside under Nocturne's gaze. The immense megastructure of [[Aubade]] tirelessly harvests energy from the system's center. |
|||
The megastructure of Aubade is a classical birch planet. Constructed around Nocturne perhaps as long ago as the [[Moridian High Command]] its sheer age can be bested by few objects in the universe. Older than even [[Eos]], Aubade has been extracting energy from Nocturne since before most intelligent species existed. What was built around this impressively large star was an impressive structure. Currently the second most massive in existence, the Aubade megastructure has a long history of waxing and waning in relevance. Currently, it is under the control of Sagittarium. |

Below is a list of worlds that orbit Nocturne. |

<center><span style="font-size:16px;">[[Dorok]], known to the Un'oit as ''Elegy'', is an ultra-cool red dwarf that numbers amongst the smallest stars in Cosmoria. It distantly orbits the black hole of [[Nocturne]] and hosts the planet [[Garrea]], capital of the furthest member of the [[United Nations of Florathel]]. After the final destruction of [[Pecay-Po]] in 80,424, the few remaining Elkeres fled the [[Rhapsody]] sphere and any surviving habitats at [[Valme]], only to be pushed away by almost every other civilization. Their only choice was Dorok, found at the edge of the borders of [[Florenta]]. The Elkeres made their home into a new Florentan province before gaining independence and then being taken by Sagittarium. Today, Mandras has finally gained independence for good as an associate state of Sagittarium and has taken great pains to lift its population out of their cripplingly poor quality of life. As it is also a high-ranking member of the [[United Nations of Florathel|UNF]], Mandras is punching well above its weight and rapidly becoming among the most influential states in its region.</span> |

<center><span style="font-size:16px;">Finale is a medium-sized star orbiting the black hole of [[Nocturne]]. Its most distant satellite, Finale has always been the most independent of the systems under the control of [[Sagittarium]]. Despite being so remote, the star has only retained its three closest planets, a series of terrestrial worlds whose population represents over an eighth of all of Sagittarium's people. Despite the relatively small populous, Finale hosts more of Sagittarium's industry than all other stars save for Nocturne itself. The system hosts a large [[Ekrosian]] and [[Vlanoan]] population who make up the self-ruling republic known as [[Rendell]]. Other nations in the system are protectorates of Sagittarium, colonies, or the personal property of nobles who often act with little oversight. Economically-productive regions are ruled directly from [[Thalia]].</span></center> |

<center><span style="font-size:16px;">[[Oratorio]] is the youngest star in Aylathiya, having only just begun fusion thirty thousand years before the present day. Even so, it has retained the protoplanetary disk that itself is only 500,000 years old. Extensive tampering by [[Ma'eau]], including the strategic placement of shepherd planets, prevents the disk from collapsing into new planets. Since protoplanetary disks are quite dense, it has allowed for Ma'eau to introduce a diverse [[Spaceborne Life|spaceborne]] ecosystem. Oratorio's worlds universally have low gravity, giving the [[Un'oit]] easy access to their neighboring worlds. Since they were able to tame much of the spaceborne life in the disk, they resided within a low-tech space-faring civilization that persists in some areas to this day. Overture is one of [[Nocturne]]'s four stellar companions.</span></center> |

It is dominated by a large spinning ring-like structure that is made up of the planets it once hosted. While [[Sagittarium]] finished the structure, it was built over tens of thousands of years by previous civilizations. It is often compared to [[Eos]], a star system with a fairly similar configuration. </span></center> |

<span style="font-size:16px;"><center>Adagio is a small icy world whose surface has adopted a characteristic deep red color due to ferrous impurities. The frozen remains of billions of creatures jut out of the ice. Intelligent species from every era can be found on the world. No artificial structures or materials have been found in the ice, including the equipment needed to reach this remote world. Numerous expeditions to Adagio have revealed that the corpses stretch deep into the planet's mantle. The deeper the fossils, the more [[Marred Life|marred]] they are, suggesting that [[Ma'eau]] is the cause of Adagio's strange properties. Due to the high levels of phosphorous concentrated on Adagio, in addition to readily-available nitrogen compounds, a number of mining operations call the rogue planet home. Adagio has one moon, Divertimento. The moon is a typical airless world of a little more than a fourth of Adagio's mass. The moon hosts thousands of red-tinted geoglyphs all pointing towards Adagio. To date, over six thousand spacesuit-clad [[Carlean]] bodies have been discovered near the glyphs. It is unclear how the Carleans ventured to the planet, however, unusual igneous formations suggest the use of [[Thaumaturgy]]. The glyphs, while crude, are usually depictions of Carlean faces with pained expressions, some of which have been scribbled out. Drawings of what seem to be clouds interlaced with gears make up a substantial minority. It is unclear why there is no text anywhere on the planet. There are no settlements currently on Divertimento, but a handful of relatively recent abandoned military bases dot its surface.</center></span> |

<center><span style="font-size:16px;">Berceuse is a barren world whose only atmosphere is a cloak of radon gas produced in large quantities by the planet's remarkably radioactive mantle. There are bacteria that thrive in the core that create large tree-like structures which take advantage of the mantle's heat. Since the planet is home to a great deal of radioactive material, it was highly sought after for much of history before cheap fusion reactors became common. Since only the largest of craft can bare the load of a fusion reactor, however, the planet's strange supply of elements is a major source of income for the planet's mostly [[Un'oit]] inhabitants.</span></center> |

<center><span style="font-size:16px;">Courante is, on average, the most distant of Nocturne's satellites. Its sister worlds are hardly visible in the perpetual night sky. Courante's north pole points toward Nocturne's four stellar companions. These four stars dance in the northern hemisphere while the southern hemisphere points towards Aylathiya's orange clouds. Due to its cool temperatures, Courante is home to heat-sensitive industry, in particular computing. The planet's millennia-spanning freeze-thaw cycles has encased ancient settlements in neon ice. Courante has the highest concentration of noble gases in Cosmoria, including a light but dense atmosphere of nearly-liquified helium. It is difficult to move about on Courante because of this.</span></center> |

The megastructure of Aubade is a classical birch planet. Constructed around Nocturne perhaps as long ago as the Moridian High Command its sheer age can be bested by few objects in the universe. Older than even Eos, Aubade has been extracting energy from Nocturne since before most intelligent species existed. What was built around this impressively large star was an impressive structure. Currently the second most massive in existence, the Aubade megastructure has a long history of waxing and waning in relevance. Currently, it is under the control of Sagittarium.
