It's supposed to be Versalian language, so it's not going to translate to english via google. Just use Elpam's Star of Night.
I do think that the Versal masters might be doing what they think is right... but attacking NLC certainly doesn't mean they're good guys. Whatever it is they do with the plot line it can't change the fact that the monsters that exist now are monsters, so they have to work around that.
Even if Versal has a moon, its highly likely you wouldn't be able to see it(for the most part at least). At most, you might see an eclipse during versalmas, an outline on a regularly star filled night, or possibly a reflection of the sun from certain angles(crescent moon). The last one would only work if the sun is at the right place on the other side of this funny world(I'm running with the idea that the maple world its likely flat)
.
Again, the idea of what makes a good villain is a good discussion tool.
There is a chance the Versal Grandmasters believe its for the good of it all(to save their world, someone must die, and if not them, us).
Then again, they can always be a comically inspired villains of lore, doing it not cause it benefits them, but because its evil(cue song about how its good to be a self aware terminology).
Its a bit complex, but interesting to see how it will eventually go down(read:We win).
Whats interesting is that while it may be an item, Elpam give us a translation. Think of it like what would happen if you went to a superstitious town in Europe, one that still lived in fear of specific folk creatures.
How would you you be told a story about a piece of Folklore?
Would you hear a direct translation of a giant wolf, or a werewolf?
