However-

This is where the similarities between the books ends, as in this Alternate Reality the Dragonets of Destiny were never born. The first, second, and third ark of the series fail to exist.

The Sandwing War of succession began when Queen Oasis was assassinated by three scavengers. They also stole some of the royal Sandwing treasure, most importantly - the Eye of Onyx. This animus touched object would show the rightful queen of the Sandwings and without it, war came to the land of Pyrrhia.

Princess Blister was the first to fall, killed by her sister Burn’s own claws. Driven by her victory over her more clever sister, battles against the Icewings increased. Growing tired of losing her dragons, the queen of the Icewings released Princess Blaze from her protection. It wasn’t too long before Princess Burn claimed her life as well, proudly displaying the heads of her sisters outside of her fortress. But without the Eye of Onyx, not all dragons believed her to be the right leader, simply the strongest. That was until Boa appeared from the desert.

Boa seemingly came out of nowhere, proudly walking to the stronghold. A copper necklace round her neck and in the center was a black, shimmering gemstone. A gemstone she claimed to be the Eye of Onyx.

Burn immediately threw herself at the smaller dragon, ready to rip it off her neck. But Boa was not as weak as she seemed. Burn’s claws shockingly bounced off her scales, unable to hurt her. Boa moved with ferocious grace, lashing her stinger into Burn until she could no longer move. With one swift movement of her neck, she grabbed the Princess by the throat and ended her life in front of her subjects. With Burn killed and with the Eye of Onyx around her neck, they bowed to their new ruler.

The Sandwing War of Succession ended after 20 years.

Queen Boa was not satisfied with simply ruling the Sandwings however and threw the continent back into war. The Great Pyrrhian War started a year after the last.. She claimed that the continent didn’t need seven tribes of dragons and that only the strongest of Queens should rule the land. She quickly made alliances with the Queens of the Skywing and Icewing Kingdoms and her forces are working to either kill the others - or force them to join her.

The Queen of the Mudwings and Seawings have banded together to fight against the allied tribes, protecting their lands and dragons.

Rainwings continue to hide away in their forests and since the other tribes think the Rainwings too weak or lazy to help...they live in relative peace. Though some dragons have heard about the war and may be willing to help.

The Nightwings have also not engaged in the war since Princess Blister’s death. Within the Tribe they fear what could happen if Queen Boa found their kingdom on the volcano and with desperation to find a new home - a prophecy, written upon a scroll was sent out to the other tribes by mysterious messengers. The prophecy text is as follows:

*A queen born of blood and tears*

*Who came to us our darkest year*

*Her slithering form came from the sands*

*She who seeks to rule the lands*

*Dragons must join on the brightest night*

*Should they wish to end the fight*

*They who climb to the highest spire*

*Shall they find the wings of fire…*

The current war has been going on for 1 year

# Pantala

Queen Dauber’s reign was seen as fair and just to the Hivewings, dragons lived peacefully alongside their Silkwing servants and besides a few defunct dragons - disagreements were heard far and few between. Until the day the Leafwings attacked.

Though to have been extinct, they struck quickly, burning down Cicada and Hornet Hive in quick succession. Hivewings were killed or fled and Silkwings freed from their captors. The Queen of the Leafwings is never seen at these battles, simply sending out her mercenaries from their home in the Poison Jungle. A forest too dangerous and deep for any Hivewing to ever hope to penetrate.

Many of the hives have been destroyed, leaving Dauber with her own and her younger surviving sister’s. Queen Dauber refuses to allow the Silkwings to know of the Leafwings causing havoc and suppresses any knowledge of the Hive Destructions, simply telling the Silkwings they’re being relocated for different jobs.

With the book of Clearsight’s prophecies having ended countless moons ago, a fact only known to Queen Dauber. She clings to her strength over Pantala while the Leafwings rage war against her forces.
