It's not directly representable in the lore, but I like to think as Shar as the dark side of the moon to selune's shining face of the moon. Can't have one without the other.

Wha ?
They were as one before this break in concord caused them to split.
Lazily copied from the wiki: "The goddesses were beautiful, identical but polar opposites, raven-haired and silver-haired, one representing the dark, the other the light in the manner of yin and yang. Yet they were so close they saw themselves as one being, known later as the Two-Faced Goddess or the Sisters-Who-Were-One. They complemented each other and brought order out of the chaos."
Apologise if it was the original state of my post you were getting at. I cleared up the autocorruptions and added the dropped letters
Indeed! I now fully understand the meaning of your original post.
This is fitting, in a way: getting into a relationship with Shar as one's patron is arguably entering into the epitome of abusive relationships. Abusers tend to have demons of their own...and Shar is no exception.

Hardly surprising, people love the misunderstood trope these days. Quite scary when it comes to real life, quite questionable when it comes to fictioncal dieties of murder, everlasting darkness and the like.
Oh, no. I hope they don't introduce a retcon in the spirit of "She's not evil, just misunderstood." .
