The Moon has not been seen for hundreds of years. And except for the elders and their dwindling followers, the moon-worshippers' belief in the Moon slipped, first into myth and then only into stories that mothers would tell their children to get them to sleep.
One day, as the elders were lighting their evening pyre, a speck of silver light caught the eye of a child. Could it be possible? Where was the pinprick of light coming from?
Ilang siglo nang nawawala ang Buwan. Wala nang naniniwala rito, bukod sa mga nakatatanda at ang iilang tagasunod nila. Naglaho na ang mga tagasamba ng Buwan. Naging alamat na lang ito, at nang tumagal, ay naging kuwentong pampatulog ng mga ina sa mga anak nila.
Isang araw, habang nagsisiga ang mga nakatatanda, isang kisap ng kulay pilak na liwanag ang nasulyapan ng isang bata. Totoo kaya ito? Saan kaya galing ang mumunting kisap?
