Diana blinked and chuckled softly. Mnemosyne would have been amused to see Diana trying to explain things so they made sense. She drew in a deep breath and then leaned back a little bit as she thought over how to best explain it all.

"There is a force between Earth and the moon called gravity. Because of gravity, larger objects pull smaller ones toward them. Most planets are larger than their moon, so they tend to pull on the moon. At the same time, the planet is being pulled by the sun. The sun is larger larger than the planet. The balance between those two “pulls” is what keeps the moon in orbit around the planet."

She shrugged and flashed Moana a smile. "Though I knew people who would have said it's just the will of the Gods."
