The Prophecy

When war has lasted twenty years... 

the dragonets will come.

When the land is soaked in blood and tears...

the dragonets will come.

Find the Seawing egg of deepest blue.

Wings of night shall come to you.

The largest egg in mountain high

will give you the wings of the sky.

For wings of earth, search through the mud

for an egg the color of dragon blood.

And hidden away from the rival Queens,

The Sandwing egg awaits unseen.

Of three Queens who will Blister and Blaze and Burn,

two shall die and one shall learn

That if she bows to a fate that is stronger and higher,

she'll have the power of wings of fire.

Five dragons to hatch on the brightest night,

five dragons born to end the fight.

Darkness will rise to bring the light.

The dragonets are coming....

Wings of Fire

Wings of fire is a book series about 7 dragon tribes at war. Queen Oasis of the Sandwings( I will inclose a Nightwing guide to the dragons of Pyrrhia at the next post, along with the prophecy ) was killed by a scavenger, and now her three daughters, Blister, Blaze, and Burn, are fighting over the throne. The Nightwings have made a prophecy that 5 dragonets, from different tribes, born on the brightest night, will rise up to stop the war and chose the next Sandwing queen. However, the Skywing egg was smashed and the dragon carrying it killed, so the a Talon of Peace(a underground peace movement that believes in the Prophecy and is determined to stop the war) go's out and gets a Rainwing egg as a replacement. This is a great series about dragons.

The books: The Dragonet Prophecy, narrated by Clay, the Mudwing Dragonet of Destiny. The Lost Heir, narrated by Tsunami, the Seawing Dragonet of Destiny. The Hidden Kingdom, narrated by Glory, the (mistaken) Rainwing Dragonet of Destiny, as a replacement for the smashed Skywing egg. The Dark Secret, narrated by StarFlight, the Nightwing Dragonet of Destiny. The Brightest Night, narrated by Sunny, the Sandwing Dragonet of Destiny. The Brightest Night will come out April or March 2014.

 Commentery on the Rival sisters: "Blaze is about as smart as a concussed sheep, Blister is probably plotting to become the Queen of all the tribes right now, and if Burn wins, she'll probably keep the war going just for fun." - StarFlight.
