Small and distant: a quiet, stable companion.
Tidal braking locked the planet to its moon: one face forever moonward.
Cold enough for nitrogen and methane to lie as frost on the surface (Triton-like).
Inside the synchronous orbit: it spiraled inward and was torn apart at the Roche limit (Phobos's fate).

Small and distant: a quiet, stable companion.
Outside the synchronous orbit: slowly receding, like Luna (~cm per year).

Merged with an adjacent moon: too close for both to hold a stable orbit.
