Aren's Moon
Aren's moon is a craggy, pock-marked satellite with a very high albedo. It's surface alternates light and dark, with many distinct surface features. Throughout Aren's long history, these features have been interpreted differently. Most agree that the shape of a dragon's head dominates the appearance.
From a ground perspective, Aren's moon appears to orbit the flat world, rising and setting each night. However, much like the Aren's Sun, this is an optical illusion created by the Aether. In fact the moon orbits the sun in a pocket of vacuum high above the surface.
In addition to the modern lunar phases as imported from round worlds, the moon above Aren has a set of 'ancient' phases(original language unknown) used in esoteric practices. Each day of the lunar month is also named for characters in the Sepal Alphabet, as used by the Lion Calendar.
