The Threnodite System is the planetary system that contains Threnody, where Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell takes place. Though none of the planets in the system have Shards residing on them, the Shard Ambition fought against Odium and was mortally wounded in the empty space of the system. It contains four planets, one of which has a moon.[1] It is significant that most of the celestial bodies in the system are named after songs of mourning.[2]
