Lune Mountains

The **Lune Mountains** or the **Lune Mountain Range** is the largest mountain range in Mystopia, forming a natural barrier between the Kyanite Kingdom and the Moonglade Kingdom. The entire range is currently occupied by dragons as a safe-haven for any descendant of Dragon Mother Lune. These mountains can be entered and inhabited by any dragon, as long as they have some blood from Mother Lune, and no blood from Mother Dusk.

Ever since the Lune Mountain Rebellion, Peak and Alpine have ruled these mountains. Tundra, son of Frost-Paw and Drown, is the current heir to the mountains.

### History of the Lune Mountains:

#### Lune Mountain Rebellion

The Lune Mountains were once divided into three clans, each ruled by its own leader. But a civil war erupted in Year [?] as the clans fought for more territory. The war lasted for almost two decades and was only stopped by the efforts of a dragon named Peak, who had almost 90% blood from Mother Lune. The three clans merged into one whole, which is now seen as more of a kingdom of dragons than just a clan.

Ever since then, Peak, alongside her mate Alpine, have been the rulers of the mountains.

#### The Lune-Senja Alliance

Around Year 690, an alliance was to be made between the Lune Mountains and Seagrass, a descendant of Mother Senja and Lune who was leader of a farily large clan of dragons out in the sea. Seagrass was a well-respected and well-known dragon for the descendants of Mother Senja, and though he was not a 'king' in their eyes, he still had an immense amount of influence over his own clan, and other neighboring clans in the sea.

Seagrass believed that with a union, he and his followers would rush to Peak's aid if humans were to try to invade the Lune Mountains. He also reported that humans were getting more comfortable with the sea. So, in return for the backup, Peak and Alpine would also have to be ready in case the humans began to come after them in boats. Peak and Alpine were eager to agree to the alliance; their scouts had reported that the Kyanite Kingdom was slowly begining to explore their area, and it would only be a matter of time until they invaded.

To solidify the union, the firstborn daughter of Seagrass, Drown, was to become the mate of Peak and Alpine's son, Cold-Claw. After Cold-Claw's betrayal and subsequent assasination, Frost-Paw chose to become the mate of Drown. The Lune-Senja Alliance is still in place, as of Book 2.

### Peak and Alpine's Family:

#### The Royal Twins

Sometime near 675, Peak and Alpine had twin sons, Frost-Paw and Cold-Claw. Because of their clashing personalities, Peak knew that in the future, it was likely that her sons would dispute over the throne. Because of this, Peak decreed that her sons would never be able to take over the throne, but the firstborn child of either of them would be the true heir. Both sons, who didn't show interest in the throne at the time, agreed with their mother's decision.

#### Princess Drown

After an alliance between Seagrass was proposed, Peak and Alpine decided to present Cold-Claw as Drown's mate to solidify the union. Queen Peak had a suspicion that Cold-Claw was seeing someone behind her back, and this became the main reason for her to partner Cold-Claw with Drown, instead of with Frost-Paw.

But as soon as hearing this news, Cold-Claw fled the mountains and ran away to start a new life with Sunscraper, a descendant of Mother Dusk; this was a relationship that was strictly forbidden in history given the rivalry between Dragon Mothers Lune and Dusk when they were still alive. To protect his family's honour and to fortify the deal, Frost-Paw offered to partner with Drown.

#### The Assassination of Cold-Claw

After being gone for almost a week, Peak knew that Cold-Claw was never going to return to the mountains after the crime he had committed. She sent trained warriors after him, to hunt him down. Cold-Claw and Sunscraper were assassinated, but their newborn hatchling had escaped by tunneling away into the sand. This hatchling grows up to become Winston, the feared mount of Sakardan's King Lucifer Cobra.

Cold-Claw's body was returned to the mountains while Sunscraper's was left in the desert to rot. Queen Peak sent a new batch of warriors after Winston, but the newborn had already been taken to Sakardan.

Because he is the firstborn son of the late Cold-Claw, Winston is technically the heir to the Lune Mountain throne. But because of his parent's hidden relationship, Peak disregarded Winston as heir to the throne.

#### Tundra's Capture

Around Year 705, Tundra was born to Frost-Paw and Drown. Even though he was younger than his older cousin, Winston, Tundra became the rightful heir to the Lune Mountains. Prior to the events of Book 2, and seen in the epilogue of *Legends of Mystopia: The Royal Twins of the Lune Mountains,* Tundra goes after Winston after he learns that the two are related. Tundra ends up getting captured and locked in the secret prison of Sakardan. He is later freed by Prince Bane Cobra.
