Dreaming Moon

“Many say the green moon split asunder the first moon out of envy. Some say it was a show of strength. I, with a few others, believe it was to demonstrate its power, and thus to spread fear among us. Fear – is the tool it used to spread its influence and anchor its presence in the world. As if its looming shadow wasn’t enough of a reminder.
“I for one, am glad when it is out of view from our skies. My body feels like it has emerged from a deep abyss in which it was held. A prison. And all the time I hear its sweet sickly whispers and a part of me longs for it.
“I’m so ashamed.”

– Tywin Ballamire, Leader of the Hylacion Guard. 142 (after arrival).
