The Night Sky

All across Terca Mahres, the night sky is a sheet of black. A few hours after sunset, the moon appears in a random location. It disappears again a few hours before dawn. A number of prominent arcanists theorise that where the moon appears is actually subjective, with each individual experiencing their own moon each night. Since a lot of people regard it as incredibly bad luck to talk about the moon, it's hard to conduct and publish research on the matter.
The moon has three phases, each a week long: 
# A full moon, appearing in varying sizes. 
# A shifting moon, which appears as a fingernail-like slither and slowly grows to a full moon before shrinking back to a slither on the opposite side of where it started. 
# No moon. 
A shifting moon again follows a moonless week, so a full cycle of the moons is four weeks long.
