* ''Literature/RWBYFairyTalesOfRemnant'': The fairytale ''The Gift of the Moon'' recounts how humanity once implored the sun to move faster through the sky to create permanent light. The effort shattered the sun, leaking its light into the world. Humanity attempted to fix their mistake by collecting the light and putting it into a new sun made from glass. They tied it to the old, broken sun to be dragged across the sky. The old sun remains shattered, unable to glow as brightly as it once did; all it can do is brighten the night a little while its replacement lights the day.

Secondly, it's not tidally locked, and visibly rotates. Remnant's moon is always depicted in full glow, but the degree of shattering that's visible depends on the moon's rotation. There is a phase which displays the unbroken face; during that stage, there's no sign the moon is damaged at all, and no sign of any of the blasted chunks. As it rotates, more and more of the shattering appears. When the shattered face is fully in view, the blasted fragments seem to extend out towards Remnant slightly; the full view of the shattered side of the moon has only been seen during a period the characters described as 'the night of the full moon'. The reason for the shattered moon is given two sepparate explanations InUniverse:
