Alanspace (ALL on)
Reginspace
Alanspace, often shortened to Alan, is the official term used by the Jenuwan Order for the solar system of those dwelling on the planet Aldern. It is known as Reginspace to the Elf, and is called Hisherat on the major continent of Dergonhad. To the common folk of Ethae it is often referred to as ‘the Dark Awful,’ or ‘the Heavens Above’, depending on how and why they are talking about it at the time.
Alanspace is a binary star system within a Crystal Sphere. These stars Uatu and Juva, sit exactly a light-year apart, orbiting one another in what is known as the Celestial Cycle. This cycle is a twelve-hundred-year orbit. The crystal sphere of Alanspace is roughly a half a light-year away from the orbit path of the two stars.
Aldern is the only habitable planet within Alanspace. It orbits Uatu, and has two moons, Ahrima and Ahura. Juva, on the other hand, has several thick asteroid belts, known to astronomers as Juva's Belt.
A nebula of blue gases, known as the Sea of Creation gathers at what could be considered the southern pole of Alan's crystal sphere. Throughout Alanspace, along the two stars orbital plain, are orbiting circle of great dust rings. These rings are largely harmless, unless someone flying through them. These rings have settled into a slow orbit around the two stars center of gravity. There is also a phenomenon known as the Cloud that rest in the path of the orbit of the two stars in their journey on their orbits.
Uatu and Juva are the only two true stars in Alanspace. Beyond these two, other lights in the sky exist as 'stars' to the people of Aldern. These 'stars' are gargantuan Nura like orbs of light. These orbs range in size but are generally the size of the moons of Aldern. They vary in color, though new orbs are usually white or light blue, turning yellow, then orange stars as they age through the Cycle. These orbs follow the Celestial Cycle appearing at the beginning of the twelve-hundred-years cycle. Then blinking out at its end, with a new set of 'stars' appearing in new random locations. This event seems to coincide with Juva passing through the Cloud. The exception of this is the three constellations. These are the Draco Constellation, the King's Cup Constellation, and the Orion Constellation. The nura like 'stars' of these constellations have remained in place throughout time. The three constellations sit along 'equator' of the crystal sphere of Alanspace. Each equidistant from each other. While many theories exist on why these stars remain the same throughout the ages, there is little evidence pointing to any holding the truth.
