[[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]] has two '''moons''':

*The larger, bright and silver moon is known as the '''White Lady'''. The night elves know and worship it as [[Elune]] while the tauren refer to it as [[Mu'sha]] (the left eye of the [[Earthmother]]) in [[Tauren mythology#Sorrow of the Earthmother|Sorrow of the Earthmother]].
 
*The smaller cool, blue-green moon is known as the '''Blue Child'''. The "Blue Child" is currently not visible in [[WoW]], though it once was. It was removed from the game at the release of ''[[World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade|The Burning Crusade]]'', possibly due to a graphical error, but has yet to return.
 
:Just before [[Loken]] in [[Halls of Lightning]] there is a globe/projection of Azeroth with its two moons in orbit around it.
 
*[[Outland]]'s moon is known as the [[Pale Lady]].
 
 
==Sources==
 
*The prologue of ''[[The Last Guardian]]'' indicates two moons:
 
:''The larger of the two moons had risen first this evening, and now hung pregnant and silver-white against a clear, star-dappled sky.''
 
*The quest {{quest|Of Love and Family (2)|Of Love and Family}} refers to the twin moons of Azeroth.
 
*''[[Lord of the Clans]]'' also makes several references to two moons.
 
*''[[How to Win Friends]]'' also makes reference to the moons.

==Trivia==
 
*In the Warhammer universe, there are also two moons: Mannsleib, which is like Earth's moon, and Morrslieb, a green (however not blue-green), smaller and magical moon.
 
*Multiple moons are a common element of many fantasy and science fiction settings.
