Lux ex tenebris - The Motto of House Lune, meaning "Light from darkness" in Latin
House Lune is the oldest known house within the Society, dating back to before The Conquering. The founder of the house, Silenius au Lune, was voted as the first Sovereign of the Society by his best friend, Akari au Raa. House Lune is infamous for wearing a mask of utmost composure, known by others as the "Dancing Mask."
