Funayūrei
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Funayūrei is a sulfur-streaked ice giant planet found by the crew of the Huygens-class survey ship Anjin.[1]
History[edit]
Circa 2557, the giant planet was discovered and recorded by a researcher working with the UEG Cartographic Corps during a three-year deep-space survey voyage. While initially seeming like an uninteresting place, a scan of one of its moons, Onryō, revealed the remains of a small settlement and a lone derelict ship of archaic design. Viks Taa, a Kig-Yar crew member of the Anjin, told the researcher a story about a resentful San'Shyuum naval commander who took his vessel and vanished into uncharted space after the War of Beginnings had ended in peace. The lone ship found on Funayūrei's moon matched the old San'Shyuum design pattern from that time.[1]
Trivia[edit]
The planet was named after the vengeful sea spirits of Japanese folklore, the Funayūrei. They are restless ghosts born from the people who have drowned and died at sea.
