Aya is a recently settled binary system in the Telos Sector, laying in the outer reaches of Nebulon. It is made up of Ayatar and Ayamar, a close pair of young white-blue main-sequence stars. Three planets orbit the pair: Syres, Sirona, and Luia. By the present day, roughly seven hundred thousand people inhabit Aya, largely concentrated around the system's second planet. Apollo, a captured asteroid in orbit of said planet, is the considered to be the heart of power in the system.
For the past two decades, Orbital Intergalactic has spearheaded Aya's development, having acquired said rights following the discovery of a previously obscured connection to Arwall Maba.
Orbiting Bodies
Syres
Description
Syres, closest to the twin suns, is a harsh desert world scorched by temperatures of over six hundred degrees. The planet has seen only sparse activity since the discovery of Aya.
Sirona
Description
Sirona is the second of Aya's planets, a vibrant ice giant in the habitable zone enveloped by a set of spectacular rings. The discovery of complex life in the ice giant's clouds led to great public interest in Aya, cementing it as an intergalactic tourist destination. Orbital Intergalactic has established several research outposts in Sirona's clouds, and its crown jewel, the sky city of Aeris, is currently in the midst of construction.

Luia
Description
Luia is the last planet encircling the suns of Aya, its distance lending to a deadly subzero climate. Deep, briny oceans of ammonia envelop the planet, broken up by vast glacial landmasses, giving rise to desolate ice sheets, spectacular archipelagos, and massive ice shelves. Only one research outpost has been established on Luia, Sellis Station, having met a deadly end at the hands of a vast storm.
