Silverseer

== The Darkest Night in a Thousand Years ==
=== Prologue ===
Almost twenty-one years ago
Sandstone was hidden, covered by the shadows. Her heart raced as she pressed her body to her cave, barely breathing. Dragons in midnight blue hoods were roaring and shouting and yelling at least eight different instructions at each other. Five dragons raced past her tiny cave dragging a sandy yellow dragon who clawed at the floor, screaming and cursing. 
Wait, that looks like Cactus, but it can’t be. Where are they taking her? And why? Sandstone thought as her mind whirled through terror and questions. Her cousin, Cactus, fled the Kingdom of Sand after learning about Queen Oasis’s death. Having no other family and being barely older than a dragonet, Sandstone was forced to abandon her town and the warmth of the desert. 
“I know Princess Blister. She’s smart and evil and she’ll find a way to get her claws on the throne” Cactus had said. 
“I’m doing this for your own safety”
This isn’t fair! Why should I leave just because Cactus is paranoid and scared! She’d been having thoughts like this during their escape but she never said it to Cactus’s face. 
Cactus had told her that she had friends who would help them hide and lay low for a while until they’. They had both reached a small tavern, hidden by a thick forest. Sandstone didn’t know the geography of Pyrrhia well, but she had assumed it was nestled somewhere between the Claws of Cloud Mountains. Cactus’s “friends” were hooded dragons who had led the down many winding corridors it seemed like a whole system of complex tunnels and pathways. No one would’ve guessed that the small cave barely big enough to fit to dragons side by side would lead to an underground society. 
Sandstone laid as still as a statue debating whether or not to follow the dragons or stay here and hopefully not get killed. Eventually her curiosity won out and she crept out of her cave following the screams that echoed through caves.
Soon, they reached a large room that was surprisingly well decorated with gold and diamonds embedded in the walls and long floor to ceiling mirrors. There was a large sky hole at the top and Sandstone could see the glittering stars in the night sky. There was a couple beautiful pearl studded wading pools and a large stack scrolls dispersed around the room. She could see Cactus being led to the center, snarling and clawing. Sandstone glanced around pressing her body to the cave wall. A massive Skywing strutted through another tunnel
