Question

which sentence from the story embers of moonlight best explains why the narrator herself has never before watched the end of night of rebirth

Answer 1

The narrator explains why she has never watched the end of the night of rebirth in the fourth paragraph, when she explains that after a while, thinking about and seeing so much death overwhelms her, so she would always return home and go to bed before the end. 

Answer 2

In the story, the author describes the Night of Rebirths which takes place at the last night of the month. Reading the first sentences of the story we can yield that this moment is related to the Moon when the author writes that "But the Moon had never landed upon my roof". Then, in the next paragraph begins with this sentence "I had heard rumors of the moon herself landing, but they were mangled and debated". The sentence best explains that the character has never actually seen this natural process.
