Indra watched the black dragon soar straight into the hurricane. What in the moons is she doing? Indra thought it was crazy, but she had to follow her. Her queen, Queen Scorpion, had demanded it. Follow the NightWings she had said, learn what they’re up to she said. She hadn’t said to fly straight into a hurricane, but Indra was pretty sure it had been implied. 
Indra followed the NightWing into the hurricane. The water and wind tore at her wings and limbs, almost throwing her out of the sky. The rain battered at her, threatening to rip her out of the sky. 
An entire hut flew over her head, clipping Indra’s wing as it crashed down into the water. Indra stifled a scream, she couldn’t let the NightWing know she was there. She flapped awkwardly, the tip of her wing ached. 
Indra’s wings were started to get tired, and she noticed the black dragon was getting farther and farther away. She bent her wings and tried to shoot forward, trying to catch up to the NightWing dragoness. Her wings ached.
Something came out of the mist far below, and Indra saw the NightWing flying towards it. It was land! The NightWing had discovered a new continent! 
Indra flew downwards, following the NightWing, who had collapsed into the soil. Indra arched towards the trees, landing in one she happily rested her aching wings.
She watched two dragons come out of the trees below her. They walked towards the NightWing who was still lying in the dirt. One was a forest green, with wings that looked like leaves, and one was sparkling shades of pink, blue, and gold, with two pairs of wings. 
“Leefromichou?” asked the green one in a language Indra did not understand. “Wayroot?”
“My name is Clearsight,” the NightWing said, touching her talons to her forehead. Oh, that’s her name, Indra thought. “I came from far over the sea,” Clearsight pointed to the ocean. “Anyone speak Dragon?” 
The other two dragons exchanged a glance. 
“The old language,” the sparkling dragon said awkwardly and slowly. 
“You do know it!” Clearsight said excitedly. 
“Some little,” the sparkling dragon replied. “Much old.” He smiled.
Indra listened, but their voices lulled her to sleep, the pain in her wings dulling. 
“Dragon yellow,” Indra felt talons prod her. 
Indra sat up quickly. One of those dragons with four wings was staring down at her, though he wasn’t quite as sparkly as the other one had been. “Uh yeah,” Indra replied, “My scales are yellow.”
The dragon cocked his head, “Old language?”
“Maybe?” For Indra this was the only language, but obviously this continent’s dragons spoke something else. 
“Colias,” the four-winged dragon pointed to himself.
“Your name is Colias,” Indra nodded. She pointed to herself, “Indra.” 
The dragon nodded, and smiled, “Come.”
He flew, and Indra followed him, as they soared towards a sparkling kingdom, decorated with strands of iridescent silk. This is gorgeous! Indra thought, looking around at the other metallic four-winged dragons flying about. 
“Come, meet,” Colias flew towards what seemed to be the biggest, and sparkliest building. He entered it, and Indra followed.
A dragoness sat perched on a throne, she was dripping with jewels, and looked ever sparklier than the whole palace. Her blue wings were stretched out and on display, and Colias led Indra towards the dragoness. 
He talked to her in their language, before turning back to Indra. He pointed at the glittering dragoness, “Queen Gossamer.” 
The queen! Indra curtseyed. She pointed to herself, “Indra.” 
Indra wondered what would happen to her here, she doubted she could make it back over the ocean. She guessed she would have to spend her life here, and Queen Scorpion would wonder what happened to her spy. She decided she could come to love this city, and all the glimmering dragons in it.
She would be the only SandWing, but that didn't matter, she was going to make a life here.
