The brightest night is a celestial phenomenon occurring once every hundred years, wherein all three of Pyrrhia’s moons are full at the same time.

Description

A brightest night occurs when all three of Pyrrhia's moons are full on the same night.

NightWings in the time of Darkstalker knew that a thrice-moonborn dragonet would be exceptionally powerful, with their powers of prophecy and mind-reading enhanced by the third moon.[1]

Timeline

Two brightest nights have occurred in the series — one in approximately 3007 AS (Darkstalker's hatching night) and one in 5005 AS (the hatching of the dragonets of destiny.)[1][2]

A false brightest night occurred in approximately 5011 AS, during the events of The Brightest Night.[3] This was caused by a comet passing through the sky, acting as a false fourth moon and causing earthquakes on the Pyrrhian continent.[4]

Trivia

  • The NightWings once believed that the third full moon granted animus magic.[5]
