Phi-1
Its story
Phi-1 Ceti is an orange giant some 234 light-years away, on the whale's flank. Its light, cold by stellar standards though warm to the eye, runs across a vast and dim constellation where notable figures can be counted on one hand. There, amid relative voids, its muted glow works as a silent marker of the monster's outline.
