The system has a Gardenworld, that was devastated by the Xunx (And marks the closest Starsystem where the Xunx exanded towards Sol)

Mepyre II was a Xunx sleeping brood world and was robot bombed by United Earth.

Today it has a heavy Union Army presence and the regions Union Fire Department HQ is on Mepyre II

There are 2 Class A spaceports in the system and the Hub is Modag

This white dwarf has relatively low temperature 5590 K (slightly cooler than the Sun), and old cooling age, i. e. age as degenerate star (not counting duration of previous existence as main sequence star and as giant star) 5.69 Gyr. Despite it is classified as "white dwarf", it should appear yellow, not white, due low temperature.
