A freak of nature, the Monad system is a cluster of 5 stars, a quintuple system of red dwarfs; Monad A , a two component subsystem consisting of Monad Ba and Monad Bb, Monad C and Monad D
Monad A is the biggest and brightest individual star, while the Monad Bab subsystem is more massive, it is less bright.
Monad A and Monad Bab form a triple subsystem, A Monad Bab.
A Monad bab is in orbit with Monad C and Monad D.
The system is named for the Precursor God A.I. of the Telosian Prophet Iskander Null-A.
Bio-enslaving Moravecs called the Telosians occupy an artificial planetoid called Telos orbiting in the failed planetary dust cloud of Monad Ba.
