| abstract | - Selûnarra was also known as Opus, and was a surviving Netherese city whose patron was Selûne. The city survived the phaerimms' magical assaults by being transported to the Gates of the Moon, Selûne's realm in the Astral Sea, in the Year of the Sundered Webs (-339 DR). Opus stood in stark contrast to the other enclaves of Netheril. Where a majority of the archwizards opened up schools for magical study to increase the ranks of spellcasters, Opus instead opened up colleges, universities, and other storehouses of knowledge. Where other floating cities had gladiatorial arenas, magical spell duels, and other barbarous acts, Opus established theaters and libraries.
