====== Orhan ======
The largest of the moons, Just over 3,800 miles in diameter Orhan’s gravity is 40% of Myaasia’s. Orhan is also to only moon with an atmosphere,making it more a planet than a moon. It has a very slow rotation 28 days; the same as its orbital period around the world. Orhan is  reputedly the home of a group of gods, the [[Lords of Orhan]]. 

The atmosphere is remarkably similar to that of Myaasia, and it is possible that the world was terraformed long ago. The distribution of continents and oceans is uncertain, as the moon is invariably shrouded in thick clouds. Orhan also shows only one face to Myaasia; the other remains forever hidden. The Great Moon (as it is sometimes called) orbits nearly
on the ecliptic at a distance of 210,000 miles. There are powerful Flows of Essænce between Myaasia and her largest satellite. 

Orhan has phases as it orbits Myaasia, each full cycle requiring 28 days. The moon is so large and bright that it is quite visible, even in daylight. Such an overwhelming feature
in the sky inevitably influenced Kulthea’s civilizations, and virtually every society’s calendar is based upon the 28 day cycle. On the first of the month, Orhan is new; it is
full on the 15th day of each month.

====== Varin ======

The second largest moon, Varin is much smaller than Orhan; just over 1100 miles in diameter. Though small, it still has a discernible disk. It orbits in a period of seven days,giving rise to the Myaasian seven-day week. In appearance Varin is a strange, mottled orange, possibly as a result of volcanic activity

====== Charon ======

Small, featureless, silvery-gray moon. It orbits in a peculiar polar orbit,and is rarely in conjunction with Orhan. Little is known about it, but it is considered an evil presence by most myaasians, who believe that the orb is a haven of strange, otherworldly beings and presences. Astronomers believe that it is covered by a permanent layer of ice of unknown depth. Because of its anomalous orbit, Charon is invisible for more than half of its rotation, as it is between myaasia and the sun. As it comes around the planet, however, it rises slowly from the south,every night rising higher and becoming more full,until one night every 149 days Charon is full and at Zenith in a given location. The full moon occurs in different places at different times, of course, and the latitudes far from the equator are fortunately spared this event. It shines much more brightly, and with a reddish glow. There is no mistaking the Night of the Third Moon. Dark cults worship Charon, and they consider the Zenith to be a time of particular importance,a time when servants of the Unlife are able to leave their home on Charon and come to the Myaasia.

====== Mikori======

The least visible of the myaasian moons. It can barely be made out as a gleaming mote in the night sky.

====== Tlilok ======

Actually a satellite of Orhan, rather than of myaasia. It is a tiny moon, Only about 40 miles in diameter, it is not a significant feature,and is only visible as a mote against the backdrop of Orhan on clear nights. This moon may have originated as an errant asteroid captured by the powerful gravity wells of Orhan and Kulthea. It has no atmosphere.

====== Quotes ======

"Of Orhan, many Tales are spun, It is the home of the Gods, and cradles a wealth of lore.To look at it aglow,pearly silver in the velvet night,it is easy to talk of gossamer castlesand ethereal lords."

"Of Charon, no one will speak"
