the Red Goddess herself

I have a question for all you Lunar propagandists out there. Pity me but I really have never paid too close attention to the quibbles and details of the Lunar pantheon, (or is the thread about KIBBLES of the Lunar pantheon?) but I have a question brought up by close reading of the GoG.

If the Red Goddess herself was apotheosized only 27 years after her birth, why are wanes 2x (54 years) long?
The only thing I can think of is that if the 7 Mothers began the ritual of her birth 27 years before....
So, in fact there would really never be a Lunar date 0/28? It would go 0/26, 0/27, 1/1. That's screwy.

On another subject, I have a friend who has casually sat in on some RQ games, but was never really interested. I lent him the Prosopaedia to give him an idea of the depth of the mythology, and it hooked him! Aside from the fact that i learn something new every time I read the darn thing, that makes it a pretty useful book.

Gosh, now if we only had some fiction. (I started some on my web page, I wouldn't mind feedback.....)
