===Previous Satellite Names=== :It's probably safe to assume that, during the height of the Obsidian's Empire's power, their scholars may have, indeed, designated the moons as being related to the Seven Aspects of Rulership (Dominion) plus an eighth at the center of this symbol; the culminating energies of illumination and vigilance (associated with the Obsidian Eye)... But it would also make total sense that these eight meanings would have been abandoned after the fall of the Obsidians hundreds of years ago, and substituted instead for the eight Anti-Virtues, as commoners might associate them with the corrupted evil use/aspect of these as they might apply to the ongoing depredations of the Cabalists (and the general bad memories attributed to the Obsidian Order itself when it was trying to take over the world in the ancient days)...<ref>Scottie Jones, [https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/forum/index.php?threads/gotta-say-that-uo-forever-stream-was-brilliant-made-me-appreciate-sota-in-a-whole-new-light.108448/page-2#post-933933 {{SotA}} Forum]</ref><br> :Well, we have eight smaller moons (other than shattered Daedalus), each representing one of the eight Anti-Virtues,...so I imagine that the Obsidians may have depicted that seven of those smaller moons represented the seven "Aspects of Rulership" (whichever ones that later might vaguely match up to the somewhat-similar Anti-Virtues) while the remaining eighth smaller moon (perhaps the nearest or the furthest) would represent the "culminating energies of illumination and vigilance (associated with the Obsidian Eye)..."<ref>Scottie Jones, [https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/forum/index.php?threads/gotta-say-that-uo-forever-stream-was-brilliant-made-me-appreciate-sota-in-a-whole-new-light.108448/page-3#post-933969 {{SotA}} Forum]</ref>
