First appears in: The Absent Memory
Argul is the name of "the red moon" visible in the night sky over the planet Eryn. During the humid, insect-swarmed nights in the Kalmansa Wilds, its crimson presence is considered "a bad omen" by those who walk beneath it. Its stark, singular appearance in the heavens serves as an eerie backdrop on the night of a massive cavek feast, signaling to the enslaved elf Cariel that "something evil was afoot tonight" just before she seeks refuge in the rylak village of Skallgr.
