+===== Astronomy of Cahyali =====
+Cahyali orbits the star **Ayat**.
+There are three moons of Cahyali, the closest and brightest one is named **Dipha**, the second brightest is named **Leine**. These two moons rise in the East and set in the West. The farthest and dimmest moon is named **Fyr** and rises West and sets East, in a highly elliptical orbit. Fyr has its own small potato-shaped satellite, named **Myn** that tumbles around in a quick eclectic orbit. Astronomers of Cahyali predict Fyr and Myn to eventually tumble out of Cahyali's gravity well in a hundred years or so. The three moons are a symbol for Seherine (the Cahyalian name for At'ena). The Seherine Seers of Cahyali often use the moons and their positions as signs.
+There are two other visible planets in the Ayat System. The brightest is a yellow-green gas giant named **Ythern**. The other is a purple-blue gas giant with faint rings named **Pthri**. Between Cahyali and the gas giants lies a thick belt of asteroids that astronomers believe could not form into a planet due to the gravitational forces of Ythern.
+===== Notable Geography =====
+**Cahyali’s Revenge**: This oceanic ridge spans north to south. The massive fault features undersea volcanoes, frequent natural disasters, and intense winds that take frigid eastern air from Pthora, warms it with intense geothermal vents, and deposits it on the western coasts of Dahabu.
+**Zhùfu Reef**: a large coral reef off the coast of Ruefang, its colorful peaks can be seen from the surface of the water

 ===== Religion in Cahyali =====
 Cahyali worships the same pantheon as Jearnians do, but have ascribed different names for each of the gods. Newcomers to Cahyali will often be met with confusion if they refer to "At'ena" or "Neptune", and many will shun those who worship these names as heretics, unless it is made clear that they are in fact the same deity that they worship. The structures of their Churches are incredibly similar to the structure found on Jearn, with minor differences. Below is a list of the Cahyalian names of the Jearnian Gods:
-  * Anubis - Anpu (Priests are refered to as Anpuians).
+  * Anubis - Anpu (Priests are refered to as Anpuans).
   * At'ena - The Lady Seherine (Priests are refered to as Seherites).
   * Isis - Aset (Priests are refered to as Asetites).

   * Zepherin - Zepherin (The three non-native Jearnian gods do not have differing names in Cahyali religion. It is unknown what in their history might have influenced this convergence).
