🌌 Introduction
The Pale Moon Sect is one of the most silent, feared, and enigmatic sects on the continent. Hidden deep in a range of fog-covered mountains, its presence seems to waver between the material and the spiritual world.
Little is known of its origin. Some say it was born from the ruins of a fallen sect, destroyed by a forbidden love between master and disciple. Others believe it has always existed — waiting in the shadows for those who belong to neither light nor darkness.
🏯 Internal Structure
The Pale Moon Sect is divided into three concentric circles, known as Rings.
◯ Outer Ring
Home to servants, workers, and new initiates.They receive little.They obey much.
● Inner Ring
Comprised of recognized cultivators who have proven talent and loyalty.They gain access to secret techniques and missions.Here lie those with potential to ascend.
✶ Silent Ring
A realm few dare to speak of.It is said that one does not enter by merit…but by being touched by something beyond understanding.It is where the Dao of Desire begins to pulse, even before the cultivator realizes it.
📜 Traditions and Codes
