Just curious.
I only know of Eweca, the red moon of Erinn.
What's the Sun called?
And there's another moon too. What's that called?
Also, what's Noitar Arat?

Is Ladeca visible all nights?

Yeah, but maybe not so much if it's a new moon IRL.

What does Ladeca have to do with Erinn's mana tunnels btw?

Ladeca is the blue moon that orbits Erinn. Aside from events and matching phases like the real moon does (meaning Ladeca is our moon pretty much), it has no real purpose.
Palala is the sun. Nuff said.
Noitar Arat is just the key to the dark realm of Luitalata, and isn't actually a celestial body I believe.

Someone told me Noitar Arat is actually the sun (like, the physical one you see when you enter) in the Shadow World? Also, there's only one moon in TNN (Fomor world), I think.
Technically, that blue moon has two variations of its name: Ladeca (Mabinogi) and Lateka (Mabinogi: Heroes). It serves as... a home for giant space bunnies.

Noitar Arat is the Shadow version of Palala. It is, as you said, the key to the dark realm and is also the source of power from which Alchemy is derived, somewhat like Ewaca is the source of power for Magic.

I think you're right about only one moon in TNN, but it's not the fomor world-- it's actually Erinn. Ladeca Lateka is probably just a typo, kinda like how Milletians is always spelled differently.
I'm not sure what the hell is up with the story of Heroes though. They seem to be trying to get to Erinn which, insofar as I can tell, they're already in, despite the fact that TNN was supposed to be the paradise.

Eh, haven't gotten past Fomor's Counterattack, and just going off of the story recap on the Wiki. :/

You mean the moongates? Ladeca is the source of the giant stones at the center of the gates. They contain vast amounts of mana that make teleportation between them possible.

So does that mean that Ladeca is up during the day?

No, because moongates are only active at night. Iria's mana tunnels are powered by Erg from Palala.

No, that's Ewaca again. Ladeca is a normal moon, Ewaca is the one that's absurdly magically charged. But yeah, the druids used the power of the shards to power the teleportation spell.

Eweca is the source of mana, but Ladeca is where the actual stones attached to the moongates come from. Jabchiel used Eweca's power to drop fragments of Ladeca onto Erinn during the Second Battle of Mag Tuireadh, so while the mana may actually originate from Eweca, the power emanates directly from rocks that came from Ladeca. Thus, they are both involved with moongate activation.

I thought "Erg" was the sun...?
