Introduction
While documentation of astrological research is sparse, some records depicting the lost Armillogion have miraculously survived both The Conflux and The Irruption. These documents detail a heliocentric solar system with five or six planets, an asteroid belt, and a sun which they collectively orbit.
Various cultures on Nave have worshiped or otherwise acknowledged some or all of these celestial bodies as Gods, and while it is very clear that the Gods are real, whether or not the planets, moons, and stars are the physical manifestations of the Gods which share their names remains a matter of intense theurgic as well as astrological debate.
Two major points of these debates often center around the alleged existence of far more Gods than there appear to be planets and moons, and the fact that many stars are named after Gods as well.
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Sunna
Sunna is the star at the center of the solar system, and no doubt the inspiration for or the deity of the same name.
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Maal
Closest to Sunna, Maal is the smallest planet in the solar system, has one moon, and is associated with the strikingly red mineral known as Maalite as well as a towering mountain or volcano named Mons Maal in Herabalter on Nave.

Moon of Maal
No records survive of any common names given to or associations with Maal's single moon.

Thalassa
Thalassa is the second planet from Sunna, has one moon, and is the first of two planets associated with water in some way. Borrowing from its name are a common water snake, the Lesser—and perhaps Greater—Thalassa Snake, and an unusually massive whirlpool somewhere to the south of Sarducaa on Nave called the Mouth of Thalassa.
Moon of Thalassa
No records survive of any common names given to or associations with the singular moon of Thalassa.

Nave
If you are reading this, you are here. If you are not here, then some calamity greater still than The Sundering of Asterra, The Conflux, and The Irruption combined has occurred, and the generations before applaud you for your tenacity in the very face of existence's end.
If you are here however, then Nave is the third planet from Sunna, a vessel whose boundless blessings serve to enable survival for myriad life. Our planet has three moons—of which two are only visible for reasons unknown—and by all appearances is the central point upon which the Gods are fixated.

Nyx
The largest of Nave's moons is known as Nyx, and is often depicted in statues of the Tindremic Old God of War, Camulos, with Camulos holding the moon aloft and demonstrating his control and dominance over both Nyx herself and her domain of War.
Taking the namesake of Nyx is also the black—and sometimes purple-hued—mineral Nyx.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Ophion
The middle of Nave's moons is known as Ophion, and is often depicted in statues of the Tindremic Old God of Wisdom, Zelua, with Zelua holding the moon aloft and demonstrating her control and dominance over both Ophion himself and his domain of Wisdom.
Perhaps taking the namesake of Ophion are the Tindremic horn-instrument Ophis, a green stone favored by the Sator called Ophite, and the fabled Ophiosquami, Ophiodermi, Ophium, and Ophiocorni—the scales, hide, teeth, and horns of Dragons respectively.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The Least Moon of Nave
No reliable records survive of any common names given to or associations with the third and smallest “hidden” or “missing” moon of Nave.
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Crepitea
A belt or band of countless asteroids between Nave and Skadi, Crepitea is associated with a deity of the same name who is said to govern insects, as well as materials sourced from them such as Crepite and Dense Crepite.
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Skadi
The fourth planet from Sunna, Skadi has but a single very large moon, the largest in the solar system. The planet is associated with ice, the incredibly dense silvery-white metal Skadite, a very rare mineral known also as Skadi, and a massive ice floe on the northern coast of Nordveld called the Shards of Skadi.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Moon of Skadi
No records survive of any common names given to or associations with the sizeable but singular moon of Skadi.
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Pontos
Fifth from Sunna is Pontos, the second planet associated with water in some way. It is simultaneously the largest planet in the solar system, and has the greatest number of moons with a grand total of eight in its orbit. The only known association with this planet is the Flow of Pontos on Nave, a massive flow of water erupting from the ocean somewhere north of Herabalter.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Moons of Pontos
No records survive of any common names given to or associations with the eight moons of Pontos.
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Erebus
The furthest planet from Sunna, Erebus is even more enigmatic than the rest of the planets. Conflicting documents indicate that it either has one or no moons, and some surviving tapestries or banners depicting the solar system as a whole exclude Erebus entirely.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Moon of Erebus
No records survive of any common names given to or associations with the singular moon of Erebus, if it exists or had ever existed. Among the limited depictions of the planet which are available, some present it with a single moon, while others present it with no moon.
