NASCENT UNKNOWN SETTLES INTO ORBIT Court Mage Miskton today held a Town Hall meeting in Shard to discuss the latest happenings in Ilithi. In the middle of his presentation, something caught my eye above. Darkewolff told us that he received word from a Moon Mage that they felt like they were being watched, to which Miskton replied, "Yes, that's what drew my attention to look up." The skies were clear enough to reveal the anomaly even to my eyes. See below. [A sketch is included of a coalescing whorl, expansive rings of light emanating from it. Tiny notes indicate its coloration as dark blue, and that it continues to pulsate, is growing in luminosity, and the rings about it are expanding and shedding harsh light.] The astronomer went on to describe it to me from his perspective. He said, "Continuing to develop, this body has now achieved a synchronous orbit with Elanthia, maintaining a fixed position in the sky... As it orbits, it appears to be moving and orienting itself. The sensation that is coming to mind is looking at the shaft of a notched and drawn arrow. It looks like, for the moment, it's still fine tuning its position, but I don't know how long that's going to take." I urge all my readers to make an emergency plan in case this Unknown proves to house some sort of hostile entity or entities, or otherwise poses a threat to us. Stockpile supplies, and prepare a place to stay underground. Dame Elurora had the interesting suggestion to prepare the Crossing Temple's shield in case of danger, though I am uncertain if it can be mobilized so quickly. I approached Kssarh for comment and found him frowning as he stared at the sky. When prompted, I was forcefully expelled from his office, the door slamming in my face.
