Summary:

Aethra is a system near the Hyades cluster.  The system is home to the Yx’s cult, a religious group that worships the stars believing that we are the children of them.  The Yx’s were once outcasts on many of the worlds were they originally had lived.  They wanted a world were they could unite and practice their religion freely, so they choose a world in the Aethra system.  Aethra was isolated from the other worlds of the Hyades cluster for a long time until eventually the Yx’s influence over the planet began to fade.  Today only a small percentage of the population still practices the Yx’s rituals.
