„*Neither of us were the king or queen we expected to be… but that doesn’t mean we can’t still fight for what we believe in. We aren’t born as leaders, we have to earn that right.*”
— Abbigail to Vulcannus↑
**Abbigail** is a human and a major character in *Songs of War*. She was introduced in Episode 2 when she found the dragon egg that Jalkar and Grim stole. Later she became the first queen of the End and leader of the next generation of Enderknights.

## Lore

### Early life

Abbigail was born some time before the Second Great War as the daughter of two farmers who lived in the Kingdom of Conchord, specifically on a farm in Underwood, and had as a neighbor Mr. Finch. At some point in her life, her parents died due to what Mr. Finch describes as Abbigail's "reckless actions," although what happened is never fully explained.

Following the death of her parents, Abbigail was left in the care of Mr. Finch, and between the two of them they worked hard to bring both farms afloat. At an unspecified time, Abbigail became friends with a wolf she named Sam, and he began living with her and helping her with her work on the farm.

Although Mr. Finch always reminded her that they are farmers, just like her parents were, Abbigail enjoyed going out into the woods from time to time to hunt with Sam, and she also became skilled at using a stone sword, and although it is not well explained how she learned these skills, it is very possible that it was self-taught.

During all the time that she lived in the care of her neighbor, he in a way overprotected her in various ways, such as hiding matters from the outside world, such as information about the Ender Knights, as well as keeping her inside the farm, away from the dangers looming in the world of Ardonia, and that is how she spent much of her life. Their relationship, whilst strained at times, was still like that of a grandparent-young adult daughter dynamic. With her Ender Trials being with her talking to Mr. Finch about why she never returned home, and her admitting Mr. Finch was nice enough to care for her all this time. In most ways, Mr. Finch was like family to her more than a neighbor.

WARNING, THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS MATERIAL FROM A COMMENTARY WHICH IS NOW ARCHIVED. IF YOU DO NOT SEE THE FOLLOWING IN YOUR COPY OF THE SCRIPT, IT IS BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER WRITTEN BEFORE THE CANCELLATION. THIS FOLLOWING SUMMARY IS WRITTEN IN NEAR WORD FOR WORD OF THE DELETED SEASON 2 COMMENTARY BY THE DIRECTOR.

Abbigail's arc was also meant to have an arc, as in mid season 2, the Nether would have been teased to raise the stakes and show the true enemy of the series, and give development for Abbigail. According to David R.B., her arc thus far was purposefully lucky in order to make her story of going from a naive farm girl to becoming a competent leader more impactful. David stated she had gotten lucky with Grim and Jalkar thus far, with Jalkar choosing not to kill her at the farm, and lucky again that Grim shocked himself and was aided by Sam, and then lucky the final time that Jalkar had already been somewhat wounded from the fall induced by Sam. The purpose of this was to build a headstrong character around her who had yet to lose out of luck, but would finally come across challenges with the Nether, humbling her and stifling her ambition to aid her realization about what she was really against. During her initial flying lesson with Allister (refer to his page to understand his character revamp) a Nether portal would have appeared. Allister would've urged her to reconvene with the group and stay back, but Abbigail would've been like she always was and rushed into combat with perhaps a few Nether skeletons or even a Netheran like Vulcannus or Skorch at the entrance. Rushing in with her weapons, she would've perhaps even rushed at the retreating Nether troops and followed them into the Nether, only to be completely overwhelmed in the unfamiliar territory and the fact that the Netherans were more powerful than her.

### Beginnings of the End

One morning Abbigail and Sam had gone out hunting in the dark forest as usual. She had managed to find a pig, and she was about to shoot it when Sam started barking and scared the pig away. Abbigail was disappointed, but she still went to Sam to see what was happening, and found that her wolf found a strange purple object that gave off a mysterious aura. Abbigail decided to take the object home with her.

When she stopped to rest from her hard work, an Etherean horse rider came to the farm asking about two thieves who stole a Dragon stone from the aforementioned city. When her neighbor said they knew nothing about it, Abbigail tried to return the relic, but Mr. Finch prevented her stating that he could sell it for more than the soldiers of Etherea could offer. He then asked her to hand over the object, but Abbigail dropped it to the ground, which angered Mr. Finch and made him blame her for the deaths of her parents. Abbigail, upset, left the place and went home sadly, where she was soon comforted by Sam's company.

### The End calls

Later that night, Abbigail had a dream in which she saw herself in a castle in The End. She saw several Endermen in the place who were watching her with interest, and then she saw a glowing purple crown on a throne, to which she was drawn. But, when she was about to pick it up, she saw skeleton and wither skeleton skulls littering the floor, and the entire place began to be invaded by Nether forces led by King Pythus wielding the Netherblade. Then she backed up, fell through an endless void, and she woke up.

Shortly after waking up, she heard Sam barking outside, followed by Mr. Finch's yelling, and she hurriedly went outside with her stone sword to find the thieves Jalkar and Grim stealing the Dragon stone again and knocking out their neighbor. Abbigail stepped in front of them and threatened them, urging them to hand over the stone and leave. Jalkar decided to face a duel with her with the sole purpose of making fun of her, and at first Abbigail was no match for him, but she managed to face him, and he acknowledged that she wasn't so bad, but he also stated that he didn't have time for that, so he hit her hard in the face and knocked her out unconscious.

Mr. Finch claimed that they should not meddle in other people's business, and again repeated that they are farmers, but this time, Abbigail flatly denied it, and told the man who had kept her on that farm all her life that she would go after the Dragon stone, and then proceeded to leave his home with Sam to go out into the unknown world.

### Fight in the stables

Not long after, Abbigail managed to intercept Jalkar and Grim at her friend Darlene's farm out of the lush Underwood forest. Here she surprises them trying to steal some horses, and she may have faced Grim if not for Sam briefly knocking him down. Then Darlene left the house, and Jalkar and Grim fled the scene. Darlene thanked Abbigail for preventing her horses from being stolen and offered her friend to stay at her house to rest so they could then chase after them on horseback, which Abbigail agrees.

### Leaving Conchord

Later, they track the robbers on horseback while chatting for a bit. Darlene reveals to Abbigail that the item they stole is not a Dragon stone, but an Ender Dragon Egg, and tells her a little about the Ender Knights who used to protect the world alongside their Ender Dragons, but that was years back and that time is over. They then talk about Mr. Finch, and Abbigail says that even though he is a grumpy and strict old man, he was the one who took care of her since her parents died and that she cannot forget about that. Then they arrive at the Tabora Crags, and Darlene tells Abbigail that she can only accompany her so far, and wishes her luck on her hunt. Abbigail then gets off Darlene's horse and before continuing on her way and thanks Darlene for everything, and then proceeds to leave Conchord and go in the crags with Sam.

### Into the Tabora Crags

Abbigail and Sam walked inside the Tabora Crags tracking Jalkar and Grim, until they found them ending a fight, and at the scene were several lifeless bodies. Abbigail found a survivor of the battle, an Ardoni named Lucidius Voltaris, and interrogated him, stating that she only wants the Ender Dragon Egg back. She was surprised to meet an Ardoni for the first time, and Lucidius informed her where the thieves were headed, and Abbigail followed the path that the Voltaris indicated.

Jalkar, who brought the Egg with him, abandoned his companion, telling him that he could not be delayed any longer because of him. An angerful Grim attacked Abbigail and Sam, and was far ahead of them, but accidentally plunged his electric scythe into a pool of water, electrifying himself and being subdued by Abbigail. She saw the shame on Grim's face, and decided to spare his life, and was about to follow Jalkar along Sam. But then the three turned around and saw three Endermen watching them from afar, one of whom had attacked Jalkar and Grim previously, and was missing part of an arm that was severed by the latter's scythe, and soon the Endermen left the place teleporting one by one.

### Travel to Biggerton

A short time later, Abbigail had reached Biggerton following Jalkar, and stopped at Marshall's shop to buy a map, and found in the shop a clanless Ardoni and a Magnorite who were trying to buy a map as well, but Marshall charged them four times the normal price due to his prejudices. The two left the shop without being able to buy the map they needed to find Ataraxia, but Abbigail decided to help them and loaned them the map that she had bought. The Ardoni introduced himself as Senn and the Magnorite as Igneous, and Abbigail told them the reason for their trip, which was to track down someone who stole an Ender Dragon Egg. Coincidentally, Senn and Igneous found on the road a thief who tried to steal their horse, and who was carrying an Ender Dragon Egg, and pointed out the direction to which he had gone. Abbigail thanked them for their help, and left to follow the way they had indicated, but not before picking up her map, which Igneous had already used successfully. When Abbigail left, Igneous and Senn were left with a good impression of the girl, even if she did not introduce herself.

### Success and loss

Abbigail and Sam later stopped in the middle of the forest to rest, but they ran out of food, so they decided to go hunting something, as they used to do in Underwood. When they got out, Sam found something and Abbigail readied herself with her bow, but then they were ambushed by Jalkar, who yelled angrily at the girl that he'd had enough of her. The two began to fight, and Jalkar managed to knock Abbigail to the ground and was preparing to kill her, when Sam bit him on the foot and dragged them both into a large fall. Abbigail ran there and discovered that Sam had been mortally wounded. She ran to where her only friend was and tried to save him, asking him not to leave her, but even if she tried everything, it was too late. Then, Abbigail emerged full of anger and hatred, and pursued Jalkar relentlessly. As the thief fled the place, an arrow struck him in his side, filling him with pain and causing him to drop the Egg he was carrying. Then Jalkar took his dagger once more and was preparing for one last fight, when suddenly another arrow struck him in the chest. Abbigail approached her enemy, now that he was facing her and kneeling before her, prepared another arrow, aimed her bow at Jalkar, and finished him with another shot that went completely through him. Abbigail then approached the Ender Dragon Egg that she had hunted for so long and that she was finally holding in her hands. But although she met her goal successfully, she felt a strong emptiness inside for all that she lost.

### The future of the Ender Knights

Not long after, Abbigail was burying Sam, and said goodbye to the only friend she ever had. Then, the Ender Dragon Egg began to glow more brightly than before, and it hatched in a huge purple explosion. She was confused by the event, and then she discovered a small Ender Dragon that was trying to fly with its small wings. Abbigail avoided its fall, and the Dragon immediately became fond of her and stayed on her shoulder. Abbigail felt somewhat confused by the fact, but still decided to take care of the female Dragon she named Luna, who was the first Ender Dragon to be hatched in over a hundred years, and without her knowing it, that was the moment that the path began for the rise of a new generation of Ender Knights.

### Hunting down the Unyielding Legion

For the next several months, Abbigail has been hunting down members of the Unyielding Legion and gathering information for the purpose of completely destroying the organization, this as revenge for what Jalkar did to her. Even the Unyielding Legion has come to regard Abbigail as a problem. During this time, Luna has been growing, reaching the size of a horse at six months, also she and Abbigail seem to have found a way to communicate with each other through body signs.

### Skirmish at Havenshire

One night six months after Luna's birth, Abbigail arrived in Havenshire to intercept a group of Unyielding Legion mercenaries who were transporting a mysterious cargo in boats.

Abbigail killed several legionnaires with her bow and sword, but faced another, who was much more skilled. The legionnaire spoke about the problems Abbigail was causing the Unyielding Legion, but he scorned her by saying that she was "out of your league" and that the Legion works together while she does it alone.

Luna tried to help Abbigail, incidentally causing a fire on a barn in the process, which she tried unsuccessfully to put out, so she was not much help. During the fight, the chest that the legionnaires were carrying was opened, revealing an Eye of the End within. The legionnaire escaped, leaving the Eye of the End behind and now knowing that Abbigail has a dragon with her. Although Abbigail was frustrated, he took the Eye of the End with her.

### Meeting Merlin

Shortly after, Abbigail talks to Luna about being grateful that she tries to help her, but wishes she didn't show herself, because people will know there is a dragon out there, signaling her unsubtle involvement in the skirmish in which she burned down a barn.

Soon, a bird approaches them talking, introducing itself as Merlin Abbigail is surprised to hear him speak, but soon identifies him as a messenger bird when he asks if she is Abbigail. Merlin is distinguished and graceful, calling himself "a highly certified communications emissary", before being attacked by a playful Luna. When Abbigail puts Luna in her place, Merlin, quite disturbed, delivers his message to Abbigail, claiming that he has no time to waste.

### Abigail arrives

Abbigail and Luna arrive to Ataraxia, and they meet Senn and Galleous. They introduce each other, and tells Senn to go work in the forge, as they have to discuss things. Abbigail recognizes Senn and smiles. It cuts to the lower level, where Galleous explains how he tracked Abbigail, and how she is not hunting down the Unyielding Legion out of nobility, but out of vengeance. He asks if she knows anything about Enderknights, and explains that Enderknights are not born, but chosen, and there has never been a female Enderknights before. Continuing, he tells her that she must track down more chosen Enderknights by using the Eye of the End she recovered, and one of them will become the Enderking, or, for the first time, the Enderqueen. He offers her a new sword, and tells her that only one blacksmith in Ardonia can create obsidian armor, so she must go to the End and reclaim said armor. If the Nether follows, she must fight them.

### The Pinkolsons

Abbigail and Luna begin searching for their team of EnderKnights, and the first person they encounter is Pinkolsons Farm. The farm is attacked by an army of undead and skeletons, but the dragon Luna drives them away with her roar. Abbigail meets Denny and John Pinkolsons. Denny and John are amazed and ask Abbigail why she is here. She explains that she is looking for Enderknights and the Eye of the End led her to Denny. Denny is surprised and tries to deny it, but Abbigail explains that she was a farmer too before she left to get the dragon egg. John invites her to stay the night. She obliges, and picks up the Ender Eye and follows them inside. In the morning, John says farewell and gives Denny his own stone sword. After saying goodbye to Rusty, they leave, following the Ender Eye and drinking Denny's stew.

### The Future Enderknights

Abbigail travels with Denny, following the Eye of the End and recruiting more Enderknights. Luna is growing bigger by the day. She finds Saxon, an illegal potion brewer, and Trevor, an enchanter ( but he did not enchant a single weapon). On the way, she spots some Unyielding Legion bandits, but decides not to pursue.

### The final Enderknight

Meanwhile, the Enderknights follow the Ender Eye. Saxon gives Trevor a potion, which makes him extremely fast. After this, the Ender Eye starts jittering around aimlessly. This is revealed to be because the last Enderknight they are searching for, Allister Evanstein III, is riding an Enderdragon named Thunderdome. He finally stops in front of the Enderknights to introduce himself. Allister asks if Abbigail had ridden Luna yet, to which answers no. Allister encourages Abbigail to try it, to which Luna agrees. As Luna jumps of a cliff and spreads her wings, she indeed flies. Saxon loves to watch them fly and he dreams that they have dragons too. Trevor is tired of this speed potion, and Denny does not trust Allister and does not like him because he is from Diamond Heights.

### Proper Introduction

The Enderknights follow the Ender Eye that suddenly stops glowing and falls to the ground, to which everyone is surprised and Abbigail decides to settle there for the night. A little bit later when it's dark, Saxon offers to properly introduce himself as having years of experience with porions. Next up goes Trevor, who describes himself as an apprentice enchanter (who however hasn't enchanted anything yet) from Twin Pass, hoping to once train in Etherea. Denny says he is a farmer whose family supplies much of the food for Hyperia and Diamond Heights, from where Allister is. After Allister acts superficially, Denny can't stand him and leaves. Afterwards, Allister asks if Abbigail is ready to rule the entire Ardonia and offers her that he rule with her, as king and queen of the Enderknights. This angers Abbigail as well and she leaves too. She finds Denny chopping wood and he says that he just can't stand Allister because he is "a Diamond Heights person", who does no hard work, yet stays rich, while the Pinkolsons do all the hard work, yet stay poor. As he says this, the Ender Eye turns on again and the seven follow it once again.

## Personality

Abbigail has a sense of justice, and is courageous in her endeavors to aid in the fight against the Nether and Voltaris. However, unlike the other leading figures of factions in the story such as Achillean, Pythus or Ingressus, Abbigail does not have extremely strong traits in nobility, ruthlessness or desire for equality as the 3 formers have respectively. Instead, her story focuses on finding herself and becoming worthy of being the Ender Queen.

## Abilities

Abbigail is reasonably skilled in combat for a farmer. However, she is extremely inexperienced in it, being about as skilled as a regular enemy grunt or sidecharacter. Unlike the other leading figures in the series such as the Tidesinger, Deathsinger or Pythus, Abbigail is much weaker and loses many fights. However, it is not for her combat prowess that earned her the spot at the top, but embodying what the ruler of the End should be. In terms of skill Abbigail is around or below Lucan's level. Even by the end of the series, it can be inferred that at best, she has improved enough so that if she redid the fight with Jalkar, she would be able to at least stalemate the former, although a definitive win is not guaranteed.

## Trivia

* Abbigail appears in every episode of the series besides Episode 1, making her total number of appearance 29 episodes, the most of every character, showing her great importance in the series.
* In one of David's notes, it was said that Abbigail was originally supposed to be named Amethyst. However, it has been scraped out.
* Originally, Abbigail would immediately name the dragon "Luna" upon hatching, inspired by the scene of the baby dragonet perched on the rock beside the moon. However, David felt as though it were unnatural to instantly come up with a name for her on the spot, and scrapped the idea.
* Interestingly, Vulcannus has shown some romantic interest in Abbigail during the epilogue of the series though it is unknown if Abbigail reciprocates these feelings.
* David also said in a video that they actually planned to let Abbigail leave Sam to Darlene
