“There it is, the primordial festering wound you crawled out of. You’re already nauseous. —Xera, (NK:02 Ch.17)
Zolitanya is a small ringed planet largely covered in water. It is geothermically active and has one continent above sea level. Its rings were artificially created due to the destruction of its moon [WHEN?]. Due to its high average temperature, there are no polar ice caps.
Zolitanya is the ancestral home of Litans, who became Compies after the Ankar Revolution 7,000 years ago (4450 BCE).
Zolitanya is currently populated by Compies, who are the dominant life form on the planet. Approximately 500,000 Compies call Zolitanya their home, with the remaining members of their species residing elsewhere in space.
