Modeled after an armillary sphere, this lyre is so beautiful it could be mistaken for a work of art. Its mysterious fleeting melody leads corrupt souls back to goodness, as if guiding them with the voice of a goddess.

Trivia

Etymology

• In Greek mythology, Andromeda is the daughter of Cepheus, and his wife, Cassiopeia. When Cassiopeia boasts that she is more beautiful than the Nereids, Poseidon sends the sea monster Cetus to ravage the coast of Aethiopia as divine punishment. Andromeda is chained to a rock as a sacrifice to sate the monster, but is saved from death by Perseus, who marries her and takes her to Greece to reign as his queen.
  • However, given this weapon’s astronomical theme—galaxies, to be specific—name is likely to refer to the Andromeda Galaxy, the closest galaxy to the Milky Way. The Andromeda Galaxy takes its name from the constellation of Andromeda, which in turn is named for the above legend.
  • Both Perseus and Andromeda are Earth element harps.
• "Milkomeda" is one name given to the future galaxy birthed as result of the collision of the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy, which will happen in roughly 4.5 billion years.
• "Lindblad" is likely a reference to Bertil Lindblad, a Swedish astronomer famous for his studies of galaxies, including the Milky Way.
• A Cepheid variable is a type of variable star. Certain cepheid variable stars, known as classical Cepheids, are used to calculate the size and distance between very large cosmic objects, such as galaxies.
• A galactic bulge is the super-dense region of stars at the heart of a spiral galaxy, appearing as a ball where the stars "bulge" out from the disc. Being spiral galaxies, both the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy have galactic bulges.
