Known to Easterners as Nomon and also called the Second Sister, this is the middle of the three moons. It appears as a source of pale blue-white light in the night sky, sometimes wished for when a little more illumination is needed. Its glow can brighten the horizon without making the night feel any less vast.
Description
Nomon is a moon, not a person: a bright, pale-blue celestial body that shines with blue-white light. Its cool radiance spreads across the night and can bathe the horizon in a soft glow. No surface features or other physical details are specified.
