Considered one of the "work horse" systems of the Corporate Sector, the worlds of the Lythos sun contain four agriworlds and two mining worlds.

  • Lythos I is a tidal-locked super-heated world with mining operations on its dark side.
  • Lythos VI through Lythos IX are agriworlds
  • Lythos XIV is a frozen world with supersonic winds and active mining operations.

Culture

  • The Lythos mining conundrum - that is, choosing between super-heated Lythos I or super-frigid Lythos IV - has come to spawn a phrase in the Corporate Sector: "Picking between One and Fourteen," meaning being forced to choose between two equally bad outcomes.
