Luyiy System
A System in the Yiy Sector.

Sedesia
A high-gravity planet located in the Mid-Rim, Sedesia is an arid, cold world of tundra, forests, and mountains. The planet's severe axial tilt causes extreme seasonal changes and unpredictable weather, and all planetary travel is restricted to ground vehicles due to the violent windstorms. Sedesians cross the planet's surface on six-legged reptilian mounts called striders, and sometimes on unique, single-wheeled machines called wheelbikes. Sedesia has been colonized for several hundred years, and its 1.5 million settlers are primarily stubborn breedtash ranchers known for their independence and sympathy towards the Rebellion. The planet's capital and largest city is Besia Osurne, home to 250,000 people and containing the popular Trail's End tavern near the stockyards. The Empire, testing a pathogen-based loyalty enhancement project, infected the entire population of Sedesia with a deadly plague called the Gray Death through aerial spraying. Imperial forces set up medical facilities, ostensibly to protect the citizens from the plague, but in reality forcing them to become dependent on the Empire for their continued survival.

Sedri
Covered by warm shallow seas, Sedri (in the system of the same name) is home to both the aquatic Sedrians and a communal intelligence of tiny polyps known as Golden Sun. Golden Sun is attuned to the Force and provides power, healing, and other necessities to the Sedrians, who worship Golden Sun as the center of their society. Golden Sun's use of the Force also creates massive gravity readings, causing problems for hyperspace navigation near the system. The peaceful Sedrians have constructed underwater cities (the largest is Fitsay) and have appointed a High Priest to safeguard the cave in which Golden Sun lives. The Empire came to Sedri to research a possible artificial gravity well generator and constructed an Imperial garrison. A group of Rebels infiltrated the garrison, studied the Imperial's aquatic equipment, and discussed strategy and techniques with the Sedrians. This information resulted in the formation of the Rebel Sea Commandos, who later saw action on Calamari fighting the Emperor's World Devastators. The SedriMotors corporation, based on Sedri, has recently produced the Amphibion combat speeder for New Republic use.
