Cyra's Lament
The poem delivered to Cyra's early followers, detailing the history between the sun and moon, and basic tenets for living.
The Lament vaguely describes the breakup between Cyra and her lover, Talune in its first section (the lament proper), followed by a number of fables that have been interpreted into moral obligations for her followers to abide by.
Historical Details
Background
It was originally given to the early cult of Cyra in the form of a carving in petrified wood, from which many rubbings were taken so that the work could be disseminated. It was originally written in Old Elvish, and has a number of translations into all of the languages of the world.
