Is there such a thing as the 3rd moon?

why would it be awesome to go there???

There are jungles too. And there's the city of Rimmen. And there's the Knahaten Flu still infecting the populace there. And there are some dungeons/landmarks that haven't showed up since Arena (or haven't showed up at all). IIIRC one of the Akaviri Potentates was assassinated in Elsweyr, which is an excellent excuse to have his ghost show up. Lots of reasons to go!

I don't know what they would have us do on the moon that hasn't already been done, but I don't object to going, I just think they need to drop more lore on it first, because right now I don't know enough about it to get hyped about going there.

There is a quest in Reapers March that involves you going to the Third Moon which is in fact truely the decaying undead Corpse of Lorkhan/ Lorkhaj. Also known as the Void Moon or Ghost Moon.

That's not another moon, but either a Daedric demi-plane, basically a pocket of Oblivion, much like Maelstrom Arena and other quest locations or in fact a location on the Jode moon itself. http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:The_Demi-Plane_of_Jode

http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Den_of_Lorkhaj

The Den of Lorkhaj is a shadowy realm created from the decaying corpse of Lorkhaj. It is at the end of the Two Moons Path, the journey that a Khajiit must take to become the Mane. This realm is said to be a third moon, a "Dark Moon" which governs the fate of the dro-m'Athra as Jone and Jode govern the fate of the Khajiit.

Khajiit hold that Masser and Secunda existed before Lorkhaj was born, whereas The Lunar Lorkhan states that they were created after Trinimac the Valiant ripped out Lorkhan's heart. Your people also believe that Lorkhaj's body was flung to the moons, and The Moon Cats and their Dance whisper of a Dead Moon in the Lunar Lattice. Are the moons really Lorkhan's corpse? And what is the 'Dead Moon?'”– Eis Vuur Warden, Wayward and Contract Scholar

Moon Bishop Hunal says, “When true cats commune with the moons and their spirits climb the Lunar Lattice, then can a Khajiit see the Dead Moon sailing behind Jone and Jode. This moon is the corpse of Lorkhaj. After he made the world for Nirni’s children to live in, the Darks in the heart of Lorkhaj also made a prison of the world—for he did not know the First Secret. Thus his heart was cut out and buried in the Dark Behind the World, and his body was hurled on high to follow the moons forever. This all true cats learn from their Clan Mothers.”

Pretty much meaning the two moons are not the real corpse of Lorkhan but the third moon remains hidden sailing behind the other moons. But cloaked in Darkness. Under the sway of the Daedric prince of Decay. I'm thinking it would also be undead like the Underking. Thus khajiit that fall under the influence of the decaying dead moon would be changed into dro-m'Athra. That is most likely the origins of the dro-m'Athra. My guess is the darkness of the scuttle void behind the moons prevents others on Nirn from Seeing the Third moon the true corpse. Or it could be the hearts darkness that prevents this moon from being seen. Either way you either have to follow the moon paths to really see it. Or when the alignment of the moons is just right it would be visible briefly when a potential mane is born.

I wonder what @Recremen would say about this?
