There was a stunned silence in the room as not only Nero, but everyone else came to the realisation at the same time. The abstract curse did nothing, and only floated above Nero's fire as if it was deriving energy from it. But the sight of it was too stunning.
The dark moon was one of Neire's two moons, and was the one that was always present in the sky. At night, when the normal, white moon was more visible, its silvery light illuminating the darkness, the dark moon was ironically the least visible. But it was, nevertheless, always there.
During the day, if clouds were not blocking the sky, the dark moon could be clearly seen. It never moved, unlike the other celestial bodies, and seemed to be stuck in one place. Many people had concluded, after studying it for countless years, that it hung directly over the Jagged lands in Creta though that hardly made a difference since no one could reach the moon, or enter deep into the Jagged lands either.
