'Sky' is an adult male
SkyWing who was introduced in Dragonslayer. He was hatched with an
inability to breathe fire and is much smaller and weaker than normal
SkyWings. He is the son of Chameleon (in his Soar form) and Kestrel, and
the twin brother of Peril. He currently resides in Pyrrhia with his
Humans|human friend, Wren.

## Description

Sky is skinny, with pale orange scales the color of the palest sunset
over the mountains. His enormous, baby-seal eyes are a pale, washed out,
watery blue, like a frosted-over puddle. Snowfall described his grin as
"sweet as baby hedgehogs". He also has a crooked daisy chain wound
around his horns.

## Personality

Sky often smiles with huge, ridiculous grins. He speaks and behaves very
oddly, and is adoring, rapturously delighted, smiley, kind, relaxed,
innocent, adorable, dreamy, and hopeful. He laughs often. He is goofy,
kind, affable, and gentle in nature, as well as giggly and excitable.
Despite his normally soft nature, he can become jealous and even angry,
especially when those he loves are in danger. He loves all animals,
especially small creatures with shells, such as snails, hermit crabs,
and baby turtles, becoming protective and/or excited when he sees them.
He is a vegetarian, most likely because of his love for animals. When he
was still a baby, he cried for a rabbit that Wren had killed, stroking
its fur then bursting into tears. He used to stare at snails for ages,
until Wren dragged him away. He is also somewhat insecure about his
inability to breathe fire. Wren describes him as smart and perfect.
Snowfall said that he reminds her of Mink, most likely referring to his
innocence. Tsunami once described Sky as "the least SkyWingish SkyWing
ever." Wren mentioned that battles scared him deeply and that he was
"not that kind of Dragons|dragon".

## Biography

left
Pre-Series
Kestrel and her
newly-hatched twin dragonets were met by Queen Scarlet at the Diamond
Spray River. Scarlet offered Kestrel forgiveness for her former
disobedience if she killed one of her dragonets. Kestrel was believed to
have killed Sky, the dragonet with too little fire, but it is probable
that Kestrel hoped Sky would survive the river, considering she went
searching for him shortly after his "death." Before Kestrel could
reunite with him, however, Sky was rescued from a tangle of bushes
downriver by Wren, after the dragonmancers attempted to sacrifice her.
Wren was unaware of Kestrel and Sky's kinship, and as Sky appeared to be
afraid of Kestrel as they watched her search, it can be assumed that he
believed his mother had real intentions to kill him.

### The Dragonet Prophecy

left The Dragonet Prophecy (book)|The Dragonet
Prophecy
Sky was mentioned indirectly when Peril realized the
truth about Kestrel being her mother and about the supposed death of her
twin brother during Kestrel's trial. Peril rejected Kestrel for Sky's
supposed death at her talons, claiming "I may not want you dead, but I
don't want to know you."

When Clay asked Peril to save Sunny for them, Peril jealously asked why
Sunny was so important to Clay and dragonets of destiny|his friends.
Clay told her that Sunny was like a sister to them all, and asked if
Peril would try to save her brother if he was here and alive. Peril
thought for a moment and agreed that she would try to help.

### The Jade Mountain Prophecy

left Escaping Peril

Sky was mentioned indirectly in the prologue, when Ruby recalled that
she heard gossip of an egg hatching twins. He was later mentioned
indirectly by Chameleon, while he was talking about how Soar and
Kestrel's dragonets would be full-blooded SkyWings instead of hybrids.

### The Lost Continent Prophecy

left
The Dangerous Gift
Sky appeared when
he and Wren helped rescue Daffodil from the scavenger enclosure in
Sanctuary, with him distracting the IceWing queen. After Snowfall
confronted them, Wren revealed to her that she could speak
Languages#Dragon|Dragon, much to the queen's shock. Sky teased Wren by
saying that she was his pet, much to her irritation, and laughed when he
found out that Daffodil was named Pumpkin by Winter.

After Snowfall fainted, having another vision, Sky introduced himself
and the other humans. After Snowfall mentioned that she wanted to show
the humans to the others, Sky convinced the initially reluctant Wren to
meet them, saying that it would help establish dragon and human
communication. He teased her again by asking if they have any cute hats
and Wren agreed to come back with Snowfall.

The group returned to the enclosure where the other dragons were
waiting. Wren showed the other dragons present that she could speak
Dragon, surprising them, and Wren complemented her speaking the language
well. After Snowfall told the others about the abyss, Qibli suggested
bringing Wren and Sky with them to communicate with the humans in
Pantala. Wren initially refused, saying that Sky was not much of a
fighter and expressed concern that he would be taken over by the breath
of evil.

Sky was shown to not be paying too much attention to the conversation,
focusing on a chipmunk nearby, and joked about Leaf having bad breath.
After Wren declared that she wanted to keep Sky away from any danger, he
reassured her by saying that he would just do the talking. Snowfall
convinced Wren to come with them by saying that her and the other queens
will pass an edict forbidding dragons from hunting and eating humans in
exchange for her help, a plan that Sky strongly agreed to.

Later on, as a ceremony was being held for the Pantala stealth team,
Snowfall watched Sky. He was visibly excited to go with them and his new
valiant and heroic purpose. Snowfall worried about him heading into
danger.

After Snowfall destroyed the IceWings#Animus magic|gift of order and
talked with Opal, Lynx was mentioned to be flying with the other
representatives to Pantala, with Sky among them.

The Flames of Hope
Sky was first
seen searching for a dolphin underwater at the beach near Jerboa III's
hut with Wren and Pineapple. He then left with the representatives and
began their journey to Pantala. A few days after leaving Pyrrhia, Sky
and the rest of the representatives were ambushed by Wasp's dragons -
Earwig, a few HiveWings, and an unnamed characters#SilkWings|unknown
SilkWing - on an island. Wren hid with Sky in the island's forests, as
Wren stated later that Sky was not a fighter and that fights scared him.

When the representatives split up after Moonwatcher, Qibli, Pineapple,
and Tsunami were captured by Wasp, Sky was part of Luna, Wren, Bullfrog, and Cricket's team in finding the abyss where the breath
of evil grew. While he and the others waited in a cave for the members
who had went to save the captured members of the crew, they encountered
a human named Axolotl.

After waiting for three days, Sky and the others decided to follow
Axolotl, who had agreed to take them to the abyss village. While
traveling through underground caverns, they encountered Pokeweed, who
brought them to the SilkWing refugee camp.

The next day, Sky traveled with Tau, Luna, Cricket, Wren, Dusky, and
other members of the group toward a lake where Tau had seen some humans,
hoping that it would bring the group closer to the abyss. On the way
there, Dusky was captured by Raven and Mole who brought him to the
abyss.

When Luna reemerged from the abyss with Dusky and Vole, Sky was at the
top with Wren, Axolotl, Raven, and Mole. Sky was also with Luna when she
flew to Cicada Hive to reunite with Swordtail and her family.

### Legends

left
Dragonslayer
Sky was found by Wren
and rescued by her from a tangle of thorny bushes.

Afterward, Sky and Wren spotted Kestrel looking for Sky. Since Sky
panicked at the sight of the older dragon, Wren concluded that Kestrel
was a threat to both of them, so they hid from her. After Kestrel left,
Wren and Sky fled towards the Claws of the Clouds Mountains, where they
began to live in hiding.

A year later, Wren and Sky stumbled on a hole in the top of a mountain
where they spotted the dragonets of destiny in a cave below. Sky
lamented on his inability to breathe fire before being interrupted by
Kestrel and Webs. Sky panicked at the sight of Kestrel, and they left
the hole. Some time later, Sky traveled to a dragon city with Wren. He
was captured by General Sandstorm as a gift for Burn's weirdling tower,
and was taken to the SandWing stronghold. Wren followed them with the
help of Deathbringer, and freed Sky from his chains with a key obtained
by Rose.

Soon after, while Wren was riding Sky, Cereus appeared, unknowingly
carrying Leaf on her back. Leaf and Wren were happily reunited, but Leaf
ultimately decided to go back to Burn's stronghold. Wren had trouble
talking to Cereus, as she cooed about how adorable Wren was and how she
wanted to "snuggle her and put little hats on her." Sky had to explain
to Cereus about Leaf riding back on her. Sky continued to tease Wren
about how she would look better in a little hat, to which Wren responded
that she would make a hat that Sky would not be able to resist.

Wren used Sky to intimidate the citizens of Valor and to expose Heath,
who falsely took credit for killing Oasis. Ivy claimed that he was a
sand dragon looking to avenge his queen, which successfully scared Heath
into confessing his lies.

Wren also returned to Talisman alongside Sky, using him to terrify the
dragonmancers as well as exposing their greed.

## Relationships

### Kestrel

Kestrel was Sky's mother. He was afraid of her, shown when Wren rescued
him from the river and she flew over them, roaring. Sky seemed to
genuinely believe that his mother wanted to kill him, shivering greatly
whenever he saw her. When he spied on the dragonets of destiny with
Wren, he trembled at the sight of Kestrel yelling at the dragonets.

### Pineapple

Sky and Pineapple became great friends during their travels to Pantala
and were both on the stealth team together. Sky wanted to rescue
Pineapple and the other members of their team when they got captured by
the HiveWings. Sky was determined to rescue him, despite Wren's
protests, and considers Pineapple a friend.

### Snowfall

When Sky met Snowfall, she thought he was one of the weirdest dragons
ever. When Snowfall compared her friends to friendly turtles on the
inside, Sky gave her a gigantic grin. Unknowingly, Snowfall felt worried
for him, and wanted him to be able to access her Ice Kingdom|Kingdom
whenever he needed her. Sky never knew that Snowfall built him a small
snail shaped sculpture. Snowfall will miss him and get sappy and
sentimental about him.

### Wren

Sky was found by Wren after he survived what they thought was Kestrel's
attempt to kill him. She hid him and decided to spend her outcast life
with a dragon instead of the humans of Talisman, who ruthlessly threw
her out.

Initially, Wren was a mother figure to him, raising him and teaching him
her Languages|language. As they grew up, Sky considered Wren an equal
and taught her some Dragon as well, and they have developed a "hybrid
language" between them. The two often rely on each other and since they
grew up alone; they travel together on every journey, never separate for
more than a day, and always worry over each other. On multiple
occasions, Wren frets over Sky and reaches out in great lengths to save
him. The bond between them is extremely powerful, to the point where Sky
agrees to help Wren even on occasions like establishing peace between
dragons and humans, starting from weakening Heath's and dragonmancers'
rules over their cities. Sky is often disapproving of how much Wren
yells and he makes jokes about her temper. Sky considers Wren to be
family. They traveled to Pantala together as representatives of the
SkyWings and humans respectively, to stop the Queen Wasp and the
othermind.

## Trivia

  - Sky is a vegetarian.
  - In Tui's annotation of The Dragonet Prophecy, she mentioned that in
    her first draft, Peril and Sky were in the prophecy, as well as an
    IceWing, but eventually decided that eight dragonets were too much.
    She also said in this annotation that she would have named Sky
    "Ember".
  - Sky's favorite animals are snails. He also likes baby turtles.
  - Sky would be confused if someone told him that they had a crush on
    him, as he is oblivious to that concept.
  - It is possible that Sky is transgender due to being Peril's
    identical sibling. When asked about it, Tui acknowledged the
    possibility, but said she would need more time to properly address
    it. However, it is very rare but not impossible for identical twins
    to be one male and one female.
  - Sky loves tiny hats.
  - Sky would often give out Wren's nuts to the chipmunks, which Wren
    would scold him about.
  - Sky has brown eyes and darker orange scales on the cover of The
    Flames of Hope,[1] despite being described as having blue eyes and
    pale orange scales.
