They split the decision of Burn, Blister, and Blaze for the position of next SandWing queen, and finally, the allegiances. The group begins to play out the death of Queen Oasis at the hands of a scavenger.
Proceeding to study with Sunny, the odd-looking SandWing dragonet, Clay meets with Starflight, the NightWing from the prophecy, and Glory, a RainWing who substitutes for the dead SkyWing, along with Tsunami, in the study cave. Tsunami then proposes and discusses the idea of leaving the mountain early with Clay.
The Dragonets acting out the beginning of the war After the SkyWing leaves the cave, Tsunami proceeds to shove Clay into the freezing river and reflects on their desire to leave the cave to make their own life. Before she can do any more harm to him, the SeaWing dragonet, Tsunami, bites Kestrel's tail, yanking out a scale. The SkyWing taunts him and pins him down. However, he does this during a training battle with the infamously grumpy Kestrel. The main timeline begins six years later, with Clay, the MudWing dragonet of destiny, reflecting on his position and importance he thought he could never have. Webs instead goes to find a RainWing egg to replace the SkyWing egg while Kestrel gripes about it not being a SkyWing. Kestrel tells him that the SkyWing palace hatchery would be heavily guarded by now, and it would be foolish to go running back for another egg. Webs disagrees with her and insists that they need a fifth dragonet. Kestrel gets frustrated and says they should just break all the eggs they have and run away before the rest of the Talons of Peace come for the dragonets of destiny. Webs tells her that Asha, the member who delivered the MudWing egg, had also died. She informs Webs, another member of the Talons of Peace, of the egg's destruction and Hvitur's death. She recovers the eggshell and brings it back to a cave underneath an unknown mountain in the Claws of the Clouds Mountains. Sometime later, Kestrel, a member of the Talons of Peace, finds Hvitur's body and the shattered egg. She throws his corpse off the cliff and flies away, wanting to kill something else. She then kills Hvitur by shredding his wings and stabbing him through his skull with her venomous tail. She drops the egg off a cliff, supposedly ruining the prophecy. Burn realizes that he is a member of the Talons of Peace, and the stolen egg is of the SkyWing Dragonet from the Dragonet Prophecy. However, he gets captured by Scarlet's ally, Burn, who is one of the three contenders for the SandWing throne. Hvitur, an IceWing in the Talons of Peace, attempts to steal a large SkyWing egg from Queen Scarlet's palace for the prophecy during a storm. What if they could escape, and survive, and save the world … their own way?įor Jonah, my little bigwings. Back to the marshes, to the swamps, to a whole tribe of MudWings who looked like him and thought like him … back to his parents, whoever they were … Still, part of him couldn't help imagining what it would be like to go home now. "We can't stop the war by ourselves," he said. "If we can find a way out - why should we have to wait another two years? I'm ready to save the world now, aren't you?"
Maybe they can break free and end the war at the same time - or maybe they'll risk everything. When one of their own is threatened, Clay and his friends decide to escape. The five young dragons are destined to end the war that's been raging between the tribes of Pyrrhia - but how they'll do this, none of them knows.īut not every dragonet wants a destiny.
