Aya is a recently settled binary system found in Nebulon's outer Telos sector. 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 center 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.
History
The independent exploration vessel Ayleria came to discover Aya in 7596 and quickly overlooked the system, believing it to be a desolate dead end in the frontiers of Midonia. Unbeknownst to them, they had missed a connection to the star of Tarnyali, harboring the lush garden planet of Arwall Maba. The planet's discovery four years later led to a detailed survey of nearby stars that could theoretically have been linked to it in the past. By sheer luck, a long-standing connection had been uncovered, its signature heavily distorted by a dense gas cloud in the L-2 Lagrange point of Sirona.
Subsequently, a deeper survey into Aya's reaches had been conducted, leading to the discovery of a rich biosphere in the clouds of Sirona. Shortly, the astrohabitation corporation Orbital Intergalactic, in cooperation with Triton Institute of Biology, acquired development rights to Sirona. Various research outposts have been established on the planet ever since, including the presently under-construction Aeris, the eventual capital of Aya. In addition, Orbital Intergalactic has excavated vast cityscapes in the captured asteroid of Apollo in order to house their workers. It has since become the system's de facto center.
Orbiting Bodies
Syres
Description
Syres is viciously scorched by the suns of Aya, its temperatures reaching upwards of six hundred degrees. That, and the fact that Aya was colonized only two decades ago, have led to very little activity on and around the planet. Those who have ventured to Syres note the suns' unrelenting luminosity amidst its azure skies.
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.

Description
Luia is the last planet encircling the suns of Aya, its distance leading 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. Three research outposts have been established on Luia, including Sellis Station, infamous for having met a deadly end at the hands of a vast storm.
