Cosmology[edit]
Nirn is a planet that resides in the Mortal realm of Mundus. Nirn is orbited by two moons: Secunda (The smaller moon) and Masser (The larger moon). There is a theory, most notably hypothesised by the Dwemer, that there are 8 more planets in Mundus which are the bodies of the Aedra or 8 Divines. These "planets" are said to be infinitely large but appear as spheres when comprehended by mortal minds. Therefore Mundus is, to mortal minds, a sphere. It is surrounded by the realms of Oblivion where the Daedra reside. Beyond Oblivion is Aetherius, which is the birthplace of the Aedra and where all magic in Mundus is channeled from. The stars are holes in the realms of Oblivion which allow Aetherius to be seen from Mundus, the largest hole being the sun.
