Details
If the player is a Balance-specialized Druid, this function returns either "moon" or "sun". If the player is not specialized into the Balance talent tree, or is not a Druid, this function returns "none".
It is unknown at this time whether the return values from this function are localized.
Note that the return value from this function indicates which Eclipse state the player is heading toward, not which Eclipse state the player is currently in, if any.
In the game's default UI, the value returned by this function corresponds with the direction the pointer on the player's Eclipse Bar is facing.
