Well, it _does, but it moves north in summer "up to the middle of the sky". It doesn't actually go much north of the Pole Star, but it dips quite a bit South of it in winter.
It is, of course, following the wobble of the Sky Dome, which mimics the original moment when it was tilted up from the North, sending all the fire pouring off the south to wipe out the Artmali Empire, and leaving a big gap in the North for the army of chaos to sneak under.

Spare me. I meant _inside_ the Truestone -- you know, like you store magic in the stuff? It wouldn't be visible from the outside, and it would be impossible to destroy the Truestone. But if you knew how, you could extract the wisdom within.

Now now. As has been stated more than once, the Blue Moon cycles are _not_ random, but can be predicted as far in advance as anyone cares to figger.
