    The Formation of the Way of Trinity Moon
    Religious event

    The Way of Trinity Moon is a spiritual order dedicated to celestial observation and contemplation of the mysteries of the cosmos and its greater setting within the Discontinuum. Its origins are incredibly ancient and are thought to belong to the time when the first Fey visited the realm and imparted their wisdom to indigenous shamen. For thousands of years the world itself was known as Trinity Moon by the Fey and by its own peoples, until the unfortunate events of the Sundering gave it the name we now use.
