Little more than a large planetoid, Shirane is a lifeless rogue planet captured in the massive combined gravity well of the Nagano stars. Parts of the planet were ripped apart by the conflicting stars' gravity wells, resulting in the formation of a dense asteroid field that remains caught in the planet's weak gravity. Its current orbit is erratic, and it is likely the planet will either be flung into deep space, or be consumed in a collision with one of the stars within the coming century.
