The term brightest night refers to a celestial phenomenon occurring roughly once every century, when all three moons are simultaneously full.
Description
Brightest nights occur when all three moons are full on the same night.[citation needed]
At the time of Darkstalker, NightWings thought dragonets who hatched on the brightest night would have animus powers,[1] but it was later concluded the third moon would only enhance their foresight and mind-reading.[2]
Timeline
- Two brightest nights have occurred in the series — one around 3,007 AS (Darkstalker's hatching night)[2] and one in 5,005 AS (the hatching of the dragonets of destiny).[3]
- A false brightest night occurred in 5,011 AS[4] when a comet passed through the sky, acting as a false fourth moon and causing earthquakes.[5]
