Kissing the Moon

“Kissing the Moon” is a poem written by Fitzroy Angursell. It describes The Red Company’s adventure that led them to visit the Moon's country, where the Moon fell in love with Fitzroy Angursell after he stole her Heart and the Red Company’s escape by stealing a boat from the Sun and rowing it down the River of Stars back to mortal worlds. The poem also mentions the starlight swords forged by Masseo Umrit for the Red Company

It is less popular than “Aurora”. It was banned in the Empire of Astandalas.

As well as the longer poem, there is also a version of the story that is a series of three or five shorter ballads set to music. The first three ballads are considered generally acceptable, and the last two decidedly not.
