Early Luna Portrait, 1995

Zafiil's friend, an ambitious Faulfenzair female.

Appearance and Personality

Blue-black, peach, and white with orange eyes. Spiral curled mane.

A restless, ambitious female, but with a good sense of humor. A natural leader. "Luna and Zaun, in addition to their physical changes, had balanced one another, the one becoming less brash, the other less taciturn. They were far better company now than they had been, together or apart, before their formal Mating."[1]

Biography

Met Zafiil on the Hearth; her ambition was to become a Faulfiirla and discover the Lost Kin, "and then everyone will know my name."[2] They became friends on meeting, and it was during that first meeting that Luna teased Zafiil about being the messiah: "“You’re like something out of a Scroll, Zafiil Paidiiza. Visions, the incense, meeting the Voice, dreams and all these other things.... I guess you’re not an Other after all. Maybe you’re the next FireBorn.”[2] Which led to Luna claiming (accurately, more or less) that she was the first to realize who Zafiil was, much to the latter's amusement.[3]

Because of her close relationship with Zafiil, Luna's time at the Hearth was eventful. It was Luna who organized the trip to Liiza where Zafiil saw Daqan again for the first time since Qodii. Her Bonding ceremony was interrupted by Feliiza's rizanapenu prophecy.[4] Her Womb Blessing ceremony, which was scheduled just prior to the final test for their school careers, was the event that saw Zafiil blessed with both the MindFire and the Dance, which she used to seal Luna to a vow, that she would be called upon to do a favor for the FireBorn not long after she conceived her first child.[5]

She spent her post-schooling community service at Dezal's ground-to-air port, helping load and unload cargo shuttles, after which she became an Emissary like Zafiil, of the vessel Baitafzendai.

After Zafiil's return she remained intimately involved with the FireBorn's ministry, serving as administrator and social coordinator (while pregnant with Nelopii, at that).

She is presently the Faulfenzair in charge of home defenses for Qufiil, a role she took up during Zafiil's life and continued in after her death. She was also present when the Alliance met the Faulfenza officially, in 311 BA.[6]

Timeline

  • As one of Zafiil's yearmates, Luna shares the same date/timelines as Zafiil. She outlives Zafiil, however, and is in her 600s around the time of the First Chatcaavan War.
  • Zafiil wrote her a letter, to be opened after Zafiil's death, among the group she wrote in her last days.[7]

Family

Luna Entwined during her student years on the Hearth with Zaun, who was one of the students assigned to her rooms with Zafiil and Iiden. (Guessing she was between 60 and 80 years old at that point?). Her first child wasn't conceived until after Zafiil's return to Qufiil the second time, which puts Nelopii's birth somewhere around the late 170s BA.

Quotes

  • “Faulza didn’t give me a brain and a sense of humor so I could somberly nod my head over His prophecies like an old, toothless mother’s-mother.”[2]
  • "It’s a sad day when a female this pregnant has more energy than any of you!" And later, to Zafiil: "I take it back. You don’t just have more energy than I do, you also have more patience.”[8]
