Ylesia

Ylesia is covered with shallow seas broken by several island chains and three continents. The northern continent is located near the north pole, while the other two are located along the equator. The weather patterns on Ylesia are marked by incredibly wild air currents found in all layers of the atmosphere, making it difficult to land a ship there. These patterns are due mainly to the planet's swift rotation, which results in a ten-hour day. Much of the land is hidden under shallow, brackish water, resulting in swampy areas which abound with a strange fungus that thrives on fresh blood. The Hutts and t'landa Til have set up a huge glitterstim processing plant on this world, using the front of a religious colony to obtain slave labor. An orbiting space station is positioned over Colony One, and is the primary debarkation point for new pilgrims and outgoing slaves.
