"The Stolen Moon" by Valeria Kotsareva.

Introduction

This is a story inspired by the painting above that I found on The Enchanted Booklet here:

The music is "Sisters Of The Moon" by Fleetwood Mac

Why The Night Was Dark

Every night the moon rose and bathed the village in brilliant starlight, but tonight was different. The moon did not rise.

There were distant stars, but the night was very dark,

People were worried.

They did not know but the moon had been stolen by two weird sisters who were taking it home to give it a rest,

After lighting up the village for many years, the weird sisters knew that if the moon did not get a rest, it would die, and there would be no more moonlight in the village.

The weird sisters were The Sisters Of The Moon, and when the Moon was ready, she would rise up into the night sky, spreading silver light over the village.
