Origin/Birth
Kabezya-Mpungu created the Moon, along with the Sun, the Rain, and the Darkness as primordial forces of the universe. However, they were intent on taking the world for themselves; the moon was the only god who did not have any plans. Kabezya-Mpungu instructed them to be compassionate, and, to make sure they did, sent down Mutima, the heart.

After this, Kabezya-Mpungu exiled himself, and the Moon expressed grief at his disappearance. Despite efforts, he was never found.

Description
The Moon is (shockingly), a god of the moon. Their physical appearance is unknown.

Of all the four Forces of Baluba mythology, the Moon is the least known; where the others are reprimanded by Kabezya-Mpungu for stating they would rule the world, he does not address the Moon at all. From this, it can be implied that the moon did not have any negative intentions.
