:''Main article:'' [[Selish Systemsystem]]

The Selish Systemsystem orbits a yellow star named [[Mashe]]. There are five planets in this system: two within the habitable zone, then two gas giants named Ky and Ralen, and finally an unnamed dwarf planet.

Donne is the closest planet to the sun. While it is in a habitable region, it is barren and suffers from terrible dust storms.{{bookau ref|auselish}}

The second planet from the sun, Sel wasis an Earth-like Shardworldplanet inhabited by humans and artificially created beings called [[Seonseon]]s and [[Skazeskaze]]. The planet was the location of [[Elantris (book)|Elantris]]. Sel was dominated by the [[Fjordell Empire]], with [[Arelon]] and [[Teod]] being the only remaining free nations. All these nations (except Teod which is located on a continent to the north) were situated on the continent of Opelon (named Sycla by the Fjordell Empire).{{au ref|selish}}{{map ref|Sycla}}

Sel has a single moon named Oem.{{au ref|selish}}

This planetary system has four planets. The habitable zone has three planets named Monody, Elegy, and Threnody. Elegy has a single moon named Coronach. Beyond the habitable zone is a single gas giant named Purity.{{bookau ref|authrenodite}}

Threnody, the third planet in the Threnodite system, is the minor Shardworld that contains the [[Forests of Hell]]. It is the setting for the story [[Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell]]. It has many features that are similar to Earth, including forests, mountains and oceans. Silver seems to be a fairly common resource on the planet, but because of its importance to survival, it is still finite and valuable. It has no moon.{{bookau ref|authrenodite}}.
