"So, just as Earthly geographers divide the world's globe into five zones depending on their astral phenomena so Levania is divided into two hemispheres: Subvolva and Privolva. The Subvolvans are eternally blessed by the light from Volva—which is to say, from our Earth—which assumes the role of a Moon to them. But the Privolvans are forever deprived the Earth."

“History is said to be written by the victors. Fiction, by contrast, is largely the work of injured bystanders.”

to ev'rything there is a season
there is a stain
to ev'rything
black fathoms churn
at the near horizon
to ev'rything
there is a season

Best Moon joke ever.
