The '''Taldain system''' is the planetary system that contains [[Taldain]]
==
;[[Taldain]]: Taldain is the sole planet inhabiting the Taldain system. It is tidally locked and located at a Lagrange point{{wob ref|2765}} such that [[Dayside]] always faces the larger star while [[Darkside]] always faces the smaller, weak star, which is obscured by the Particulate Ring.{{au ref|taldain}}{{book ref|ws|part=ars}} </br> It is in an unstable orbit known as "Wombear's Saddle", where it is kept from ever entering into its natural stable orbit by the gravity of Ridos, and by some other, unknown force, presumably Autonomy.{{book ref|ws|part=ars}} </br> A single moon, '''Nizh Da''', is in a polar orbit around the planet.{{au ref|taldain}} Its orbit is actively manipulated by an outside force to keep the same orbit relative to Taldain.{{book ref|ws|part=ars}} Its orbit is used to define the length of a day on Taldain.{{book ref|ws|part=ars}}
;AisDa: A blue-white supergiant that holds the Eye of Ridos and Taldain in its orbit.{{au ref|taldain}}{{book ref|ws|part=ars}}
;The Eye of Ridos: A relatively faint white dwarf surrounded by a particulate ring.{{au ref|taldain}}{{book ref|ws|part=ars}} Sometimes shortened to simply Ridos. It sends out pulses of light and Investiture through the particulate ring every seven orbits of Nizh Da, which Invests the [[Starcarved]].{{book ref|ws|part=ars}}
