   The keph is an analogue of a ghaa'ghu head, complete with vocal apparatus

(though lacking the weak ghaa'ghu equivalents of ythogu, eyes, and with no ingestive apparatus or chemoreceptors connected to the mouth or nose). Mimicking this inefficient construction is generally considered a waste of vorgaal, and noshoggoth would expose its central neural apparatus to easy targeting by placing itthere, as ghaa'ghu persist in doing, but some shoggothim who interact with ghaa'ghu or use devices designed for them find g'keph useful. Note that, should you find that ghaa'ghu are put more at their ease by your fl'hlgath of a keph, that does not necessarily mean that they will find two g'keph twice as reassuring.
