GUYS GUYS GUYS. NIGHTWING TWINS. they can always read each other's minds because they were the same dragon at some point. They can be identical or fraternal, I like fraternal more though, since that would mean both of them get to be both make and female. Gonna go with a cloudy full moon, so very minimal external mind reading except from each other. They will share all their senses of they want to a well. Feel free to steal this idea, I would especially love to see any at yall come up with.
I'm up so that means yall are going to listen to me ramble about my fantribe weevilwings.
Lord Brimstone, cousin of Queen Cressida, Knight
Highly disciplined and selfless to the point of extreme, he denies all royal spoils in favor of walking a knights path. He has yet to learn balance in this life as you cant truly put others before you for so long
As most knights do they must go through Capella's cruel choice. Capella, goddess of the sun, calls forth her knights without pause... even for grief. Most suits of armor are passed down from mentor to student meaning to become a full knight your mentor must die. Truly the harshest moment of poor Brimstones life.
The weevilwing council isn't much for having the 4th in line for throne (hear brimstone eye roll) running around doing selfless knight work so they forbid him from doing it. Still he slips away at night.
Another new adventure Brimstone is on is funding weevil islands house for dragonets. Not every hatchling and dragonet has a family. Spirit started this home by herself in an old abandoned army outpost but given the place was falling apart and constantly stolen from by theives she reached out to the council for help. Denied and sent home in tears, little did she know Brimstone had witnessed the meeting.
He now funds the home referred to as "The House of Brimstone" and does his best to personally protect it. Which helps his want to be selfless but can be difficult when dragonets are everywhere pulling on your beard, asking to borrow your chest plate for sledding, constantly getting stuck in your armor.... but still it feels nice to protect those in need... and visit spirit...
Locked in tonight. Made a whole pmv. My babies...Ough my babies Ton and Olvidia. Knew each other back in Tons henchmaning days but broke apart after ton had to skedaddle. Meet up later and of course old feelings return
yall should check out Soft by Glare it is such a good song fr also getting to use my student plan paid for after effects
I am once again asking for your ocs. I love valentines day and I love drawing dragons doing cute little in love stuff . So hand over your oc relationships so that i may doodle them.

Mouse, argile, Muskeg, komodo, icequake, bubbles, flop, forestfire, etc (I have a lot of ocs lol) have no current ships.
My personal favorite oc ships rn
Snapping turtle x cove/sunhunter and Strawberry x Conifer from my canon story. Gonna ignore that currently cove is dead, hurt my own feelings having to write that chapter
Then Calamity and Ambitious from my viruswing au.
goodbye 2014 hello 2015 🫶

Oc asks!
I have a LOT of ocs and all have a LOT of Lore. So to cut down it's limited to my wof ocs as I like them the most 💀 so you may ask about the ones in already put and ask out about OR we've got some older fellas that are still up in development
Scifi wof au tribe viruswings. Ask Wannacry?, The mother, or even brightmoon (currently working on a story with these guys so I'm totally down to yap about em)

Anyways!
Thank you for keeping me busy this final day of 2024 and I can't wiar to see you all in 2025!
currently getting silly in a wof arpg server.
First fella is Bubbles, he/him, a seawing with dwarfism. He doesn't like you but loves your money. (As well as beautiful plants, he'll never say it aloud tho) Won't back down to a fight ever. He may or may not have henchmen.
2nd lady is Flop! Also known as rabbitsfoot, she/her, a leafwing with an animalistic trait (gives your dragon an animal feature. I chose rabbit ears) nickname for her clumsiness she can hear you from miles away but the moment she whips around she gets a face full of ear. She's a sweetheart and enjoys crafts
Last dude is Pickle, he/him, a seawing with both gigantism and elemental (similar to firescales but you can give your dragon scale of any element. I chose electricity for an eel look 👀) BIG fella. Not the smartest guy but he's got passion. Even simple tasks are done with 100% effort and dramatics. While not very intelligent he's really good at insults and comebacks (or at least he thinks 💀 cause what are you gonna do? Fight a walking lightning bolt?)
Final art is a piece of bubbles with another arpg members oc Haze the skywing. (Next doodle will feature Pickle cause arpg member said it would be funny if someone asked "how the weather was up there" and was met with "stormy." *lightning bolt*)
Are Snapping Turtle and Sunhunter/Cove in looovvveee? Also what were Sunhunters parents like?
Also I really really really like your art and ocs and I can’t wait to see more of them!!!
Sunhunters parents were a pretty secretive pair. They raised Sunhunter lovingly but never really told her about how they met or what other family sunhunter may have. They passed with their secrets leaving sunhunter to only wonder alone.
As for sunhunter and snapping turtle.....👀
Snapping turtle certainly has some feelings but is a bit too nervous to express them. There is also plenty of outside factors that make it a bit hard for the two to be an offical pairing. One being the constant dangers of the war, stress over the dod, and an ever growing powerful seawing queen... who does not care for animus disgused spies.
all in all lets just say the pair would love to just do laundry and taxes in another universe
also tysm!!! im glad your enjoying <3
The girls are fighting
Un thought out plans are made... they totally won't snowball into something big
some calm (-ish) before the storm
prologue 👀 hope you enjoy meeting current skywing leadership... and her short temper with traitors
In relation to my wof ocs. Cause I know rn I've been only like telling the story through pieces with posts and art.
usually I'd just decide by myself but I'm honestly torn cause I'm good with any of the choices. So to the people it goes
Itll involve the cast below lol
Piece for playlistober day 5: I could tell you everything by never easy
"I could tell you everything I could show you anything And i could bring back anyone But know i cant be here When they come"
To me the song has this feeling of wanting to tell someone something but holding back. For any reason but with our girl strawberry she wants to tell the dod everything about their destiny and purpose but she knows the dangers around all this
for context as I dont believe I properly introduced Strawberry. Shes the talon of peace memeber who collects all the dod. She ends up getting chased into the pinewing camp where she stays with conifer. She reports to the talons about how the dod are doing, after convicing them this secret camp was the safest place for them to grow up, but they are getting to the age where they need to "save the world" strawberry keeps defending them by stating some excuse that theyre not ready,argile says he understands... the other talons are growing impatient tho

Day 4 of my playlistober (my own inktober thing) I had to draw these two because when I posted the kelp bride there I put this song to it and now ive just been associating them with it.
wish tui would have let us know more aquatic always thought that it was cool
the other two (day one was rest) playlistober pieces for those curious. Prism of feeling by soft blue shimmer and Not in love by Crystal Castles
Hand drew each kelp piece (other than the farthest background as thats just a vine brush blurred) and I can tell you its honestly very fun. Kelp forests my beloved.
Its a busier piece but there was no way I was going to get rid of any of the kelp lmao.
Anyways enjoy these two 💕
What is it like for Argile to an animus in the mud kingdom. And was their first spell?
Despite being a very rare sight many in the mud kingdom are a bit too busy with the war to deal with an animus. As well as Argile kinda keeping his powers a bit of a secret, at least from the ears of royalty
His first spell of course was a silly one for his siblings the other one... was something...
What is so weird about his appearance /gen? He just looks like a Seawing to me
me 🤝snapping turtle (Understanding that we love ourselves just the way we are but how society sees us still gets to us sometimes)
Snapping turtle by all terms is a pretty average seawing but in his universe an "average" seawing is a longer n smoother snout, bright colorful scaled, but still a short n stocky dragon. He doesnt exactly fit that (as many other seawings dont) He grew up in and around the palace so nobles were the dragons he was around most. Once he got outside and met other seawings he began to notice the differences. Greetings we from disgusted looks to average stares.
What is most frustrating to snapping turtle is how dumb these beauty standards are but how he just cant shake the effect they have on him when hes around the seawing nobles.
It would be so cool to have an oc interaction if you please :]
Insight! Darkstalker syndrome (seer, mindreader, animus) and a consistent uptightness that never goes away- and only seems to get worse when it does change. Doesn’t like to be touched, doesn’t seem to like anyone, and doesn’t want to have a normal conversation (without bringing up the topic of corruption)
He has never met anyone as consistently angry as himself, so I’m so interested about him and Forestfire! He’s definitely never met a firescales, either. Would likely try to get inside his mind and listen (even if he didn’t admit to it). Perhaps Forestfire would even be the only dragon Insight would back down to, and avoid talking back to
Your art and characters are beautiful! I find myself on your blog so often! Ty for the opportunity 💥
tysm! Love your work as well your characters are super interesting!💕
Funnily enough just as insight hasnt met a firescales forestfire has never met a mindreader or seer (he has met animus and lets just say its in insights best interest to keep that power hidden around the guy)
Forestfire wont admit it but I see him being a bit fearful over having his mind read. Specifically those deeper thoughts that dont aline with his revenge ready persona. I could also see him being very interested in in insights seer abilities, he'd love to know if he wins his battle and if not what he needs to do to win.

Too snapping turtle
Who is the current seawing queen? What is she like?
"Queen Isopod is the kingdoms current queen after a seawing ambush killed her mother and sisters. A small and pale seawing with eyes always on the brink of bursting into tears. The crown is awkwardly balanced on her head as its a bit too heavy and bit too big for her.
To summarize, she is completely lost in panic and worry. Some say it was due to the sudden death of her mother and others believe it is because she never wanted nor expected the throne. She was tossed into leadership with no warning. Leadership during a war where all eyes are on you for what to do. An especially heavy crown thanks to Pearl and her... strong... leadership style.
She never leaves the deepsea palace because of these worries. A big reason Argile made the earring...
Many on the seawing council take advantage of this anxious state she is in. As one whisper of possible spies or traitors sends her into a panic, she'll do anything to keep herself safe. I honestly feel quiet sad for the young queen. She had no time to grieve and I fully believe she never left that night her mother died.
More alarming is how her usually shaky run away fear is turning into an angry violent fear. Ive seen long respected generals get dragged away to shark nests for failing to catch someone she found to be threatening.... this isnt her though... it cant be...
Her new council member Prawn has become close to queen... suspicious he is..."

hey there! i'm a big fan of justice driven characters, wondered if there's any particular reason for snapping turtle's sense of justice?
(also i love his design and your dragon style in general, they're so cool :)
tysm!!
Snapping turtle was hatched during a time of great tension. which caused the seawing queen to go into a worried panic. She began to provide rewards to any couple who hatched strong dragonets and put them on the path to become soldiers. This led many to scramble to hatch the strongest dragonets which also led to many "weaker" seawing hatchlings to be left behind. (Orphanages boomed and some seawings began to adopt a more mudwing style of living with sibling troops instead of the average family)
Snapping turtle was dubbed a "weak" hatchling due to his odd appearance. His parents sent him to Baleen, a royal scientist who was trying to start a counter effort to make sure the tribe had plenty of scholars, he didnt offer as much of a reward but a reward none the less.
Snapping turtle never saw his parents after that and gladly Baleen was a kind guardian. He never really gained the full respect within the palace and among nobles which further strengthened this sense of justice. "I didnt do anything to deserve this? I like how I look... its not fair that I am looked down on..." were common words spoken to Baleen.
No wonder he joined the talons of peace and no wonder he helped sunhunter
If I may ask the artist a question (I love your blog and art by the way, it's reignited my interest for my own WoF AU), how do you draw their feet?? I am hard struggling trying to draw the talons for my dragon OCs again and I can't seem to figure out the basic shapes for their toes and talons. Do you have any advice? Perhaps a visual example?
Ty!! glad to have inspired >: ) bringing you over again into the dark side (lol)
anyways! little secret is I started off as a big time warrior cats fan so my beginnings are cat. This fell over into my wof art as many of my dragons have paws. Id say its a little less "paw like" now but still thinking of them like paws makes it much easier
my tutorial is probably not the greatest but if I can give any tips its to remeber to break down talons into simple shapes. Need a sharper look? Go for more squares or triangles. Softer or heavier? Ovals n circles. Its easy to get overwhelmed thinking of details like scales before even placing down the shape of the talon
if you need references I highly recommend big cats! or if your feeling adventurous any animal with a paw or claw. Have fun experimenting with what feels and looks right to you!
Ask for cove! What's the best and worst things in being a seawing?
Cove has been enjoying the experiences of the ocean. Sights, sounds, smells... all very fun... but there is a lot she misses from the desert.
The ocean can get spooky at times as well...
curious about lore? Have an oc who you'd think might have a silly, serious, or overall interesting interaction with my ocs? Just want a free oc doodle?
Look no further!
Im currently working on a bunch of Lore for these guys and would love to flesh them out a bit more. Really find their characters. So feel free to send in any questions or send in your oc and lmk how they'd interact or connect with a character.
Character run down:
Cove (or sunhunter.)- she/her, was a sand/night future seer but is now hidden as a seawing by the power of an earring. Overall nervous, inquisitive, and has a strong sense to try and find justice
Echis and Gecko- she/her & he/him for Gecko, sandwings. Married noble couple. Overall sassy, a bit spoiled, but very protective and loving of their family
Snapping turtle- he/him, seawing, regarded as an odd seawing for his short snout and duller colors. Overall intelligent, grumpy, but also has a urge to find justice.
Argile- he/they, mudwing animus, a laid back leader his eye is focused on protecting his fellow mudwings. Overall strong leadership, charming, but a bit too laid back (especially when it comes to protecting fellow talons of peace)
Mouse- he/they, skywing ex talon of peace. A short and lanky skywing he tries his best to speak confidently bit often gets a jittery. Overall secretive, nervous, and cowardly
And if your feeling brave you can ask a question of big villain himself
Forestfire- he/him, skywing with strong firescales, not much is known about the guy other than he is huge and angry. Overall a giant ball of rage.
rules
Nothing NSFW. Please be appropriate
Dont be afraid to ask complex or super simple questions. I do not mind letting yakl know their favorite colors or food 😂
If sending in oc connections or interactions try to keep it to one or two ocs per ask
Other than that go crazy
Sunhunter waited silently in the sand. She hated being so… out in the open. Especially now. She jumped hearing a dragon rise from the water.
"Relax. Just me." Snapping turtle shook off a stray piece of seaweed. His spots gave a faint yellow flash in the moonlight. "If your here just to tell me that I'm in danger I know…" sunhunter frowned at the familiar look the seawing held.
"I'm here to offer you a way out actually." He trudged through the sand as it began to clump on his wet talons. He shook the sand off and opened his talon. Within it was an earring, a shiny pearl carved in the shape of a star. "Oh its beautiful… but how is jewelry supposed to help me?" Sunhunter took it into her talon to further examine.
"Argile made it so he could come with me into the deep palace. He doesn't really come into the ocean these days." He glanced toward the deep blue "it's enchanted. It'll turn you into a seawing as long as you wear it."
Sunhunter felt her scales shiver "Snapping turtle… I can't… all my visions... they come in water I don't want to imagine how awful it would be in the water…" she shook her head. "How do you know? You've never been in the ocean." He leaned forward "Sunhunter you don't really have a lot of options here. The skywings are after you… they can't go into the ocean."
Snapping turtle was right. The mercenaries and assassin's were getting more crafty. Even those against the skywings would give longing glances at her. No doubt gaging whether or not the bounty was worth it. "I..I dont know how to be a seawing.." she frowned "I don't know aquatic or how to swim or or-" "I'll teach you." Snapping turtle flashed a rare smile. "What about the talons? I still want to help the peace effort…" she looked at the earring. "Oh for moons sake forget the talons! This is your life in danger!" He exasperated "Sunhunter… please… I dont want to see you become some trophy for the skywings.." His eyes were weirdly desperate.
Sunhunter sighed and slipped the earring on. A deeply cold chill ran through her scales. She shut her eyes tightly as the world spun, she stumbled forward and met Snapping turtles chest. Past the pounding in her head she could hear him "Its alright… Argile struggled a bit as well…"
Her scales stopped tingling and the pounding headache faded. She felt snapping turtles wing on her back, brushing softly. She also felt her new gills, webbed toes, and flashy spots. She opened her eyes to find her new night vision. Also finding herself needing to look up toward snapping turtle "Oh making me shorter than you is unfair." Snapping turtle snorted "Welcome to being the short and stocky tribe."
Sunhunter stumbled steadying herself. She used to be shoulder heavy but now her weight was all over. She felt stronger despite being shorter. Snapping turtle stared and sunhunter rolled her eyes "I know I look stupid don't I.." "No.. I think you look good as a seawing. I like that the earring chose a mix of more saturated green-ish blue scales. Unique in pattern but not out of place for a seawing." He smirked "but I do miss your original look."
Sunhunters face scales felt faintly like her sandwing warm ones but it went away quickly. She smiled "I have a great hunger for fish now." "Beats those awful roasted tarantulas you used to eat." He stuck his tongue out. "You never tried them so don't start." Sunhunter raised her head, her shiny sea ready scales catching the moonlight. Watching the moons for a moment she turned back to snapping turtle "Well what should my new name be? Sunhunter isn't... seawing... like."
He glanced away "hm.. clam?" "Clam?" Sunhunter retracted "Are you saying I have a big mouth?" She glared. "No! I just- ugh ill get something else…" He rubbed his chin "I'm not good at names…"
Sunhunter sighed before flopping into the sand. A faint dizzy feeling hitting her like a wave "So when does the dizzness stop?"
Snapping turtled perked up as she curled into a C "Cove! Your new name should be cove." He smiled as sunhunter titled her head "Hm... I do like it... but it doesnt mean something dumb does it?"
"No no... A cove is just a small bay often secluded. The waters often have a greenish blue look." He nudged her with a wing "I can show you."
"Ok... but dont let me drown..." She steadied herself and headed toward the water
Snapping turtle chuckled "Of course."
The skywings have been claiming the mountain near them has become a volcano. Saying that the nightwing volcano must have woken it up... highly doubtful to me, but when the tremors began the rumor grew more widespread... Which is why im now in this cave.
Toad stuffed the scroll back in his bag as the mountain shook again. He managed to pin pont the exact mountain the tremors were comming from. So far it was just a boring old mountain.
"You hear that? She says youll be released soon." The voice shouted with a nervous chuckle. Toad hesitated before following the voice.
"I... I was so worried she wouldnt believe me and she'd have me killed..." The voice continued as Toad curled around the dark stone corners. His thick mudwing scales scraping against them, the heat was rising. "Imagine what we can do once your out... Like we can go flying and hunting and and you gotta see some of the festivals!" the dragon stopped falling into a coughing fit.
The cave opened up... suffocating smoke filled the belly of the mountain. Chains scattered the walls all connected to somthing in the middle. It would shift and send a chorus of clangs echoing off the walls. Claw marks of varying sizes lined the walls among charred bones and ash.
Toad crept further out trying to see what was behind the smoke.... A dragon... a giant one...
He struggled to hold himself up from the weight of the chains. Anywhere he places his talons melted, even the mountain itself. He shifted toward the ant like form of the other dragon, a wing flew over toads head sending smoke swirling past. Toad bit his tongue to prevent himself from coughing.
"I cant wait..." His voice hissed. his tongue flicked out running it over his teeth "I need to stretch my wings and get this rope off..." his neck and wings were squished into the mountain. To toad this cave was giant but to him it was a cramped cage. "revenge will be sweet I promise you that little brother..."
The dragon below gave a whimper "I wish you wouldnt think of revenge. Let them ruin themselves... the war certainly isnt going in her favor.." The large dragon reared up, he slammed his wings and talons into the mountain. The treamors... it was him...
"Dont you DARE tell me what to do." He roared, another tremor, his jaws struggled against the rope "Once im free I will do what ive been wanting to do for CENTURIES..." The small dragon whined and whimpered apologies under him. The large dragon gave a sigh, rolling his eyes "but I also wish to hang out with you...I have plans but I do wish to catch up on our lost dragonet years..."
Toad had many questions. How could a dragon of his size stay hidden. How was he burning so much? Why dont his ropes or chains burn? but he was also terrified... he needed to leave. now.
Toad turned to escape but the large dragon moved his wing, it slammed into toad. Toad heaved as the wind left his lungs, he stumbled to catch himself in the air. The two whipped around to face the eavsdropper. Toad froze. It was like starring into the sun.
"Who whos that?" The small one yelped
The large dragon opened their mouth as much as they could with a hiss "An unlucky visitor..."
While Argile introduced me to many more talons they barely gave me any mind. Mouse, the ex skywing solider was the final one who seemed rather intriuged in me.
Mouse is a small and scrawny skywing. He coughed little flickers of flame every so often almost as if his body kept trying to make fire. Despite his size and lack of strong flame he is crafty. Every plan he makes works out perfectly. Im quite impressed and he seems rather nice... though he can get nosy
He says he joined the talons of epace because he saw the destruction of war and wanted it to end. The whole reason he was exiled from the skywings was due to wanting peace. I feel bad as his years as a soldier seem to weigh heavy on him
overall he is a decent dragon to hang around
LIAR! LIAR! LIAR!
HES DOOMED ME! THAT BACKSTABBING SNAKE!
Mouse ran back to the skywing queen and ran his big chicken head mouth off about my visions and prophecy! The whole of pyrrhia knows of me! THE SKYWING QUEEN HAS A BOUNTY ON MY HEAD.
Whats worse is that none of the other talons seem to care.... Argile just shrugged and told me to stay out of sight.
I... I.. dont know what to do... I dont know where to go... I...why couldnt I have gotten a vision of this? Am I just some cosmic messenger? Some meaningless pawn?
The moons have forsaken me....
-Sunhunter
"Sunhunter, Meet me on the coast along the rainwing rainforest. Please HURRY - snapping turtle"
Echis and her husband Gecko were the pair I met next. Echis isnt a sandwing im unfamiliar with. Her family is well known among the sandwings.
Echis is a hooded sandwing. To have a hood is to be noble, you hatch with a high status and dont worry about any of your needs going unmet. Her hood indicates extremely lethal venom that even queens fear. Other than the infamous hood she is a dragon of unique patterns and cactus needle thin teeth. Her glossy dark eyes stare through your soul. Shes also big... very big.. I heard because of her size she was able to defeat her mother. Echis's mother wanted to marry her to the youngest of the lizard family. Echis fought her, won, also fought the youngest, won, and then married the eldest.. Gecko.
Gecko is the exact opposite of Echis. Hes short, round, and has warm scales. Despite this though his attitude is exactly like hers. They both enjoy the luxury life of nobles and complain often about the conditions in the talons of peace's hide out. The only reason they stick with the peace plan is for their future hatchlings... which is noble I suppose.
Argile wasnt lying when he told me Snapping turtle was the "nice one" They hate me. No doubt about it. In fact Echis actually told me. Which... I guess I prefer the honesty. They dont like that I am half nightwing. They turn away their eggs like ill somehow curse their future dragonets with my nightwing powers OOOoooOOOOooo. Gecko is a tad nicer as he'll look at me if he needs to speak to me Echis will just hiss and wave her talon like im a fly annoying her.
Thankfully Snapping turtle informed me that "Those spoiled eel faced lizards" dont stick around long and so I wont have to worry about them.
-Sunhunter
Snapping Turtle was the first of the talons of peace Argile introduced me to.
Only slightly shorter than the mudwing, Snapping turtle is an odd looking seawing. His scales arent vibrant like usual and his snout is short. His larger form is almost all muscle, learned this as his tail crushed a large log like it was a twig. I doubt anything could pierce through his thick scales
As his name implies he is extremely snappy. I hadnt got a word in before he complained about my timelyness. I fully believed he hated me until he paused and complimented my scales. An odd interjection but a welcomed one.
From what Argile explained Snapping turtle is very smart with strength to back it up. It makes him perfect for information collecting in more dangerous areas. He has very few scars which makes me wonder how often he actually fights... or more so how good he is at it. I wasnt going to try and find out. Why make enemies so early on.. he also did compliment me.
Im nervous to meet the others as ive hear argile refer to Snapping turtle as "The nice one" Not giving me a lot of hope right now
-Sunhunter
"Nightwings aren't the only ones with special magic powers." His lip curled into a small smirk "At least now they aren't." He turned slightly and carefully picked out another scroll. Unrolling it there was a drawing of sunhunter with her name under it… as well as the word "now."
"What is it?" Sunhunter frowned
"I enchanted this scroll to show me who would help me stop the war." He rolled it back up "as well as tell me when you would arrive." He put it back in the pile. "Most of the others in the peace effort joined awhile ago… I knew we were missing somthing…someone." He tapped his ear "My ear iches everytime something is off. It's never been wrong yet."
Sunhunter couldn't help but wrinkle her nose. This mudwing was weird. Enchanted? Ichy ear? Peace effort? "I don't understand. How did you enchant something to do that? How… how did it know me? What is this?"
The mudwing sighed "look this isn't the time to be going over all this… You seemed to be looking for me too… so why were you?"
Sunhunters face fell. Dread filled her again as the visions images returned "I saw a vision… I know what the skywings are hiding… that.. that they're wrong to think it will work in their favor…" She shook her head burying it into her talons. "Fire! Lots of fire! The whole of pyrrhia will burn!"
"Shhh…" The mudwing stretched a wing quickly as her voice grew. "What else?"
"A giant dragon under the mountains. He wants to kill us all… if he is released pyrrhia will be destroyed… pantala too… then he'll go after the moons…" sunhunter brushed her mane "Everything will burn to crisp… it will be our final sunrise…"
The air grew cold despite the fireplace. The mudwing glanced about silently. His wing left her side "Have you gotten any other visions? How do we stop this?"
"I don't know…" she huffed "I've been flying for so long I haven't slept… I haven't even checked if I felt any signs of a vision…"
He turned and glanced toward the maps on the wall "You should stay here. Rest for the night… then I'll introduce you to the talons of peace. You can stay with us till you get another vision.." Sunhunter could only frown. She had no clue if she would get another vision. She didn't really want to stay with this mudwing and his peace group. Tiredly her head fell into the pillows. She couldn't fight it though… her whole body ached with exhaustion.
Getting from the sand kingdom to the mud kingdom wasn't easy. The war didn't make it any easier. Sunhunter had flown day and night, fueled only by fear. The sight see saw in the vision still haunting her. She couldn't bare to look at the mountains when she had passed them. Finally over the rainforest the outskirts of the mud kingdom were in view. This side of the kingdom remained untouched by war. Once a place regarded for only the low born mudwings was turned into a bustling city. Being the closest to the rain kingdom it made for a good base camp. The Diamond spray was were battles were often held. A faint burning glow sat on the horizon. Sunhunter wondered where the queen was. Her palace was so close to the war and yet sunhunter hear she refused to leave it.
In her thoughts she missed the rainwing patrol. The slender soldiers shot into the air slamming into her wings. She tumbled downward failing her wings to try and catch some balance. The rainwings followed and wrapped their tails around her limbs yanking in different directions. It took about six to slow her fall. Seven to full restrain her. Sunhunter growled as she thrashed "let me go! Please! I must find someone!" Her eyes caught a few of the soldiers faces as they were back down within the camp. Their noses wrinkled as their tails let her go "hybrid…" one grumbled to the others. "We're giving you mercy but dont think trying to sell Queen Gila or Queen DiamondCrusher…" they slithered back to their posts.
Sunhunter knew all too well both queens distaste for hybrids. Just last week her hybrid friend goldtail tried to trade rainwing secrets for immunity…. his head now sits stuffed on Queen Gilas wall. Sunhunter shit her eyes tightly trying to forget the image as well as to quiet her spinning head. After a moment of regaining her footing she looked around. While mudwings and rainwings were crazy about hybrids they held less murderous urges. Worst sunhunter got was a weird look. It could also be they were too busy fighting the war to care. A few large mudwings with frills and rainwings with heavy plating walked about. They didn't seem to be worried about it. Sunhunter had to shake her head again. She had gone off track thinking. She started into the city. Mudwing of amberscales…. Mudwing of amberscales….
She could only frown finding hickorys, chocolates, umbers, mahogany, russets, chestnuts, and even a few siennas. Out from a large mud den glowing from inside, came two figures. One mudwing of darker browns scales, they waved to mudwing behind them before disappearing into the crowd. The mudwing they waved to….. covered in sparking amber scales. He was large and had a few deep scars on his shoulders. His sides were speckled with amber like stars in the sky. Sumhunter could tell if they were apart of him or if he embedded them himself. She wriggled past the crowd and made it to the den. She didn't pause before entering. The mudwing looked up with a jolt. The inside of his den was cozy with blankets and pillows. The glow was coming from a burning fireplace, warmed the place to a it felt like the desert to sunhunter. He laid near it was a scroll at his talons. Instead of being angry, shocked, or screaming at sunhunter to get out… he raised a brow. "I wasn't expecting you so soon." "What?" Sunhunter shook her head. "Take a seat you must be exhausted." He motioned a talon to the pile of deep purple pillows.
Sunhunter didn't protest despite her shock. She flopped into the pile and curled her barbed tail in. So soft. She could feel her eyelids growing heavy already. Quickly lifting her head she continued "How do you know me? How did you know I was coming?"
