The Remnant system is composed of seven planets and is the main setting of Achron. When humanity first arrived at the Remnant system they found vast alien ruins tens of thousands of years old on the surfaces and in the orbits of the third, fourth and seventh planets. Evidence of inhabitation was also found on a few of the moons in the system. Research on the ruins began immediately, and led to the discovery of teleportation. The Remnant system became a research and development focus for the best minds in the human empire because of this. The Remnant system was the fourth system invaded by an alien race and a huge fleet was amassed to meet the invasion. The human fleet was decimated, despite having superior firepower, because it was out-thought on every level by the aliens. As discipline in the fleet began to break down, the data feed from the Remnant gate went dark. The player is one of the survivors in the Remnant system and must piece together what happened and unravel the mysteries of the alien invasion and the Remnant system itself.

All places in Remnant except one have at least a nominal atmosphere.

Moore's Point and Drasil are the only places with vegetation in Remnant.
