I'm amused by #fantasy works that are clearly in a different world: different cultures and histories; different species; different continents... but still a single #moon like our own.
It is remarkable how the moon, of all variables, seems constant, especially as the moon was a symbol of inconstancy in antiquity.
Doesn't affect my enjoyment of the works!
