L16-22GS system

The L16-22GS system, as it was known on most galactic star charts, was a star system centered around a single yellow G-type main sequence star, located several dozen s Coreward of the within.

Orbited by eight planets, three gas giants and five terrestrials, it was the home system of the Sa'ari species and contained their homeworld of T'lessia. Though inhabited throughout most of known galactic history, the natural Force-sensitivity of the native Sa'ari caused an inadvertent side-effect which caused automated space probes to perceive little of note within several million kilometers of the planet. Because of this, the system was largely ignored by the and its successor states.

However, during his and 's initial efforts to track down Laera Reyolé, happened upon the inner life zone of the system. Close enough to T'lessia, labeled as L16-22GS-3 on their charts, they were able to determine that not all was as it first appeared and chose to attempt a landing.

Behind the scenes
The system's letter-number designation was first described in the prologue of The Great Leap Forward by Sean "Goodwood" Nash. It may receive a more official name in a later work.
