Tycho is Andromeda's sire and the king of Herd Starlight. He has always played a big role in her learning as princess, making sure she receives a proper education.

Astara
Astara is Andromeda's dam and the queen of Herd Starlight. Andromeda loves to adventure with her, as she is the more free-spirited of Andromeda's parents.

The Name Game
Andromeda in Greek mythology is the daughter of the king and queen of Aethiopia and was sacrificed to a sea monster as punishment for her mother's boasting. She was saved by the hero Perseus. "Andromeda" is also the name of a spiral galaxy that is approximately 2.5 million-light years from Earth and is the closest major galaxy to the Milky Way. The name is of Greek origin and comes from a combination of words individually meaning "ruler of men", "man", and "I protect, rule over".
