Zafon
The sacred mountain
Legend says the peak of the mountain's top is outside of atmosphere "above the heavens". The truth: it is absurdly high because it is an artificial construct that is also the root point of a space elevator. The OAI is the primary destination of the elevator as the tethered end. The OAI was originally housed in the ships that brought it to the ZZZ system. Much of the ship was cannibalized for the initial settlements after the OAI was transferred to the former asteroid that was moved to become the weight on the end of the tether keeping the elevator in place.
Pole tilt-zafon points to sin. Toward Sol?
Zafon is the center or the Origin (0:0) point of the Gentu (polar) mapping system. All other locations are given in degrees from the Z Line (line from Zafon to Z point, parallels equator or international date line as the base from which measurements are taken) and distance from the center point.
For example, Zafon is 0:0. 0 degrees and 0 distance.
PDQ example is xx:yyy [Padrang] (xx degrees up, yyy distant)
