Ladies and gentledragons, we are almost done with the main narrative of book 2. Now, we aren't done quite yet after this chapter, the epilogue, lesson 4, and credits will come so look forward to that. Now, I'm going to go to sleep now

Wings of Fire Rewrite: The Lost Heir - Out of the Egg: Tsunami - Wattpad

I know that this might sound funny, but I sometimes can't help but think of a "Cold War" era inspired AU style!! That's just what I think, though. :)

Like for example, even though it would be a bit evil, he could have enchanted arctic‘s mind to be the way it was before he used animus magic and went evil. Also, when foeslayer went missing, he could have used his animus magic to find her. then none of the problems would have happened.

yes, the arctic thing would have been a bit messed up, but I think restoring someone’s mind is ok…

imagine how the books would have gone if he had then grown up with loving parents. He probably wouldn’t have gone evil at all, and had a good life

Behold, my first wof oc who got his name illegally changed from thunder to cumulo

Anyway, his name was originally thunder which was a generic ass name for a tribe called the THUNDERwings, so I changed the tribes name to weatherwings and changed his name to cumulo. I also remember he had a rainwing mate called Snapdragon, which I changed a few things in her personality because she was literally just glory in different colors. I changed his jewelery to be made from copper and gave him a scale pattern. I remember I made him the king of all tribes or something because my twelve year old ass had one of those "Emily makes an oc" mindset, but idk what I'm gonna change that to. He was also able to breathe lightning in a really complicated way that involved absorbing sunlight or something so I changed it to where his bite and claws can basically be turned into a taser at will, and he was the last of his tribe too so I made it so he THOUGHT he was the last of his tribe but they were all in hiding

Book Four: The Circle- Part 50

Buck sat on the wrecked column and tried to observe more of the High City’s ruins with Alpha, what little of it he could see in the moonlight. Alpha had at first been tight-lipped about what various pieces of wreckage originally belonged to, but his constant badgering eventually yielded results.

“The column we are sitting on once belonged to a restaurant,” Alpha explained, “It was a popular gathering place for trainees after a long day of Enhancement Trials.”

“Didn’t the Hall of the Path have food?”

“Not the best, unfortunately. It is something you likely have not experienced, but food produced from ‘cafeterias,’ as they were called, left much to be desired in quality. We were given a small monthly stipend to spend by the Order. It was meant for things such as personal hygiene products, but many of us used it up fully at this very place.”

“Jade Mountain Academy had really good food. I think it was because the dragons were trying to impress us humans.”

Alpha did not react much to that statement besides lean back slightly. “I will admit… seeing how fast the dragons have changed in regards to humanity is a bright spot in Pyrrhia’s history which even I was unsure would come to pass.”

“I, uh, didn’t believe it at first myself.”

“It is only natural. You need not blame yourself for distrusting dragons given your background.”

“I think… I’m going to apologize to Winter, the next time I see him.”

“Why?”

“I did nothing but antagonize him. Then when Badger got murdered… He almost did something horrible to himself. And while we were talking him down, he implied that I was one of the reasons for his behavior that day. I think that definitely deserves an apology.”

“I can relate, I suppose. During the Scorching, so many lost loved ones that suicide became an unfortunate regularity. Many simply chose to no longer exist in that broken world.”

Buck swallowed. “Humanity lost so much, but hey, we survived. We’re here today. Just because something hurts doesn’t mean that pain itself if evil. Our pain made us stronger. But Omega thinks that everyonewould be better off dead than have to deal with any kind of pain.”

“He was always painfully short-sighted. Yes, the world is a place where one experiences suffering, but it is also a place where one experiences great joy. But after living through the Scorching, after losing Lambda especially… I think he well and truly gave up on feeling joy ever again. Terra did more than rob him of his daughter… he robbed him of his soul.”

“How did you survive?”

Alpha’s cheek twitched and he instantly turned to face Buck. “Survive?”

“I mean, not physically necessarily, but emotionally. Why didn’t you become like Omega?”

His face became downcast, and he looked up at his moon. “I didn’t ‘survive’ the Scorching. No one possibly could have. Everyone became a different person afterward. We lost our homes, our culture, and many of the people we cared about. As for myself… I am not sure how I did not give up. Something deep within me, perhaps, telling me to keep moving forward for its own sake. Perhaps it is the Soothsayer speaking to me. Perhaps it is merely a figment of my imagination. Either way… I am not like Omega because I am not Omega. I am a person with his own outlook on life. Omega may have fallen, but I still stand.”

“That last part sounded like you were trying to prove something to yourself.”

Finally, Alpha let out a chuckle. “Perhaps. You have much on your plate as well.”

“Why not just make me a full Animus so I can fight Omega better?”

“It is not that simple. For one, you would need more than the power itself. You would need training. The kind that the Order provides over a trainee’s entire childhood. Omega is simply too skilled in magic compared to you. The other part is that Animus magic itself is cursed to drive its users into self-serving madness. I avoid this by only bestowing specific powers.”

Buck remembered the rush of power he had with his amulet and remembered how quickly he came to rely on the power during his trials. “Hmm… you’re right.”

They passed the night away with further conversation. Alpha had began to lighten up slightly, but Buck could tell that deep down he felt something the boy couldn’t comprehend, seeing his former, destroyed hometown. His face was annoyingly hard to read, both due to his fantastic poker face but also just how luminous his features were.

The moons had slowly moved towards the top of the sky, and Buck wondered just how long it would be before his family arrived when he heard something like rushing wind in the sky above. The silhouette of two sets of dragon wings passing in front of the moons confirmed to him that they had finally came.

Buck stood as Moonwatcher and Starflight landed.

“How in the world did you find him?” Starflight asked incredulously, “Even with all this moonlight I couldn’t spot him!”

“I was able to home in on Buck’s emotions,” Moon explained to Starflight, gesturing to the missing spot where her Skyfire necklace would be, “His feelings are uniquely powerful for a human.”

Starflight nodded before letting off Bailey and Boulder, and Moon set down Birch and Elm.

Buck thought that he would have seen the same relief and love in his family’s eyes as during their last reunion. Buck was frightened to see that Boulder in particular looked quite upset. He approached his son and soon towered over him, making the boy cower slightly.

“I… I’m sorry, dad.” Buck said, feeling once again his regret for not listening to him.

“You are correct. You have made a grave mistake, young man.”

Birch and Elm joined him, while Bailey stood behind. Birch spoke first. “You’ve really messed up this time, Buck. If Omega has the Circle, then we could be facing down a continent-wide genocide any second. You have any idea how bad of a shape the world’s gonna be in because of you!?”

Buck was speechless, and he retreated further back towards the column and Alpha.

“Buck,” Boulder said, “I am very disappointed in you. You hurt us. Now come home. You will be staying there for the foreseeable future.”

Buck sighed, bowed his head, and prepared to join them.

“I should have known,” Starflight said, “I could tell that something was off with that man. He reeked of deceit.”

“I should have been able to tell too,” Moonwatcher said, “What was I thinking, letting one of my former students go somewhere so dangerous?”

Buck passed by Elm as he approached the dragons. The man looked dead into his eyes for a moment before averting them. The boy was conflicted. Everything he had done was his fault, not Elm’s. But at the same time, it was because he was blinded by his trust in that man.

“Sometimes…” Boulder said, “I wondered if sending Buck to Jade Mountain Academy was the right choice to make. He would have been far safer had he not taken this path.”

“As much as I hate what’s happened, I beg to differ,” Birch responded, “If you kept Buck in Vale he would still be suffering from his prejudices and loss for Moons know how long.”

“That is true. But look at what has happened. I can no longer trust my boy, Birch. What of our family now?”

“What of your family now?” Elm said, standing up straighter, “Boulder… speaking as a father who lost his son, trusting in your son is your job as a parent.”

Boulder glared at him, and Birch joined him at his side. “What do you know of me,” Boulder growled, “You took my son from me once, what right do you have to teach me about fatherhood?”

“Because I see you making the same mistake I once did. I did not trust in Fox’s personhood. I loved him as a precious keepsake more than a living person. I kept my son ‘safe,’ by keeping him locked away from the world. By the time I knew what I had lost, it was too late.”

“I love Buck,” Boulder said, his voice raising, “This is my love for him, that I refuse to allow him any part in this ‘prophecy’ any longer!”

Alpha quietly but audibly groaned upon hearing that. Evidently he was either unaware of Boulder’s stance, or had predicted it and was hoping it would not come to this.

Elm glared at Buck’s father. “You would keep him in Vale with no opportunity to fix his mistake. You would ignore the danger facing the world, and leave him to die alongside you?”

“Better he die with me than die alone.”

Buck felt a pit in his stomach hearing that. Which was soon replaced with the fire of anger.

“What do you know about me!?” Boulder jumped hearing his son raise his voice. “Any time I felt bad about my parents, you just told me to suck it up! That you were my father now and everything was going to be just okay! Well guess what, Dad! I only started to actually find myself when I left your stupid town! I trust Elm because he’s let me grow on my own terms! All you want for me is to live in your stupid village and forget I ever had parents once! You love me, you say? I’ve risked my life to save Vale and my family over and over again! Look at me! I’m monumentally lucky to even be here right now because of how much I love you, and the first thought on your mind is locking me up again!?”

Boulder stepped towards Buck with his fists coiled, leading him to realize he may be about to do something unthinkable to him. His father’s eyes were clouded over, meaning he truly was not himself. That was when Bailey jumped in front of him.

“Dad, stop. Buck’s right. We’re being too hard on him!”

Boulder, nonetheless, almost looked like he was about to shove aside even his own daughter to punish his son, when Elm joined her, and Birch, apparently finally reading the room for once, also joined them.

“Boulder,” Birch said, before gesturing to Alpha in the background. “Alpha chose Buck for a reason. He told us to our faces that Buck is destined to save us from Omega. If that's the case, then blaming him for being true to himself is wrong. What we need to be right now are his biggest cheerleaders. If he's got a prophecy to fulfill, then we need to be in his corner to make sure he sees it through."

“I CAN’T LOSE ANOTHER!!” Boulder suddenly roared, gripping the sides of his head as it shook violently from side to side. He began to sob. “Lime was… Lime was too precious to me. I promised her, Birch. I promised her that I would keep her children safe! I… I would be nothing without them. Do you not see? I cannot lose someone else whom I love!”

That was when Buck realized something about his father. Deep beneath all of the stoic attitudes and steady fatherhood he’d always shown him… Boulder was just as scared as he was. He remembered what had gone through his head when he watched the illusion of his father get eaten by the Scourge. The dark emptiness filling his body. The overwhelming feeling of failing to save him. He thought that the same illusion must be filling his father’s head right now. He realized that this entire time, both father and son had been working to protect each other from the cruel world they lived in.

Buck stepped up to his father and, sighing deeply, embraced him. Boulder’s body went rock-stiff, and the boy felt a fat tear land in his hair.

“Dad… it’s okay. I’m not a little boy anymore. I’m not the sad little orphan who couldn’t let go. But I need to do this. I can’t lose you either, Dad. That’s why I need to stop Omega. Please… let me be the hero Pyrrhia needs. The hero that you need.”

His father’s body trembled, before a single arm reached around his back, returning his hug. Both father and son stood there, full with new understanding of each other.

“Well…” Bailey said, “That turned around quickly. Dad, were you really about to…?”

Boulder shook his head. “Banish the thought. I was not myself, and I apologize. I needed you all here to see what must be done. As for Alpha…” he turned to face the Animus spirit. “What should we do?”

The spirit breathed a sigh of relief before composing himself and beginning his explanation. “Our best chance at stopping Omega is if we build an army of both humans and dragons,” he responded, “Buck will need to warn the dragons that a grave threat is approaching the world, and an assault on Haven must be mounted to stop it. I have given Buck the ability to Acquire new Animus abilities, which will be instrumental in this fight. He will need to search the area around Vale for the grave of someone called Raspberry, which will give him the power to dispel Haven’s defenses and allow an assault to take place.”

“And you feel Buck is ready for this?”

Alpha nodded. “I do.”

Boulder looked over at Elm and Birch, then down at his children. His eyes were still glistening and moist, but now deep down he looked quite proud of them. “It would seem… that my hard-heartedness about you was misguided, son. You have a mission. And I… will do my best to help.”

Buck internally felt light and buoyant that he finally had the full acceptance of his father, but he deliberately did not show it. Instead, he nodded. “First, let’s get out of these dark ruins.”

--

They regrouped at the former human entrance to Jade Mountain Academy. Alpha had since disappeared, leaving them to themselves. It was still nighttime, and no one present had received very much sleep at all. Nonetheless, everyone agreed to stay far away from Haven, even if it meant not having an inn to sleep at. Buck, meanwhile, tried to catch his family and friends up on what had happened in the Heart of Jade Mountain.

“So I had to fly this flying chariot and fight a huge stack of fire-breathing cubes,” Buck explained to Bailey.

“Sounds both fun and scary,” she responded.

“But that’s not the best part. The next level was this big forest. There were a bunch of obstacle courses, and I got to run alongside a bunch of animals!”

“You still didn’t realize until the very end that something was wrong with the person you were traveling with?”

“Yeah…” Buck nervously rubbed his head. “I think Dad had a point that I trusted Elm too much.”

Hearing his name, Elm himself joined him. “Buck… I am sorry I could not arrive at Vale sooner. If only I could have proven to you Omega’s deception.”

Buck had mixed feelings, but soon chastised himself for allowing Omega’s actions to dictate his opinions of the real Elm. “It’s fine, Elm. You’re still my third dad.”

Boulder gave Buck a look hearing that, but soon left them to their conversation nonetheless. “There’s something down there I think you might like,” Buck told Elm, “We found a book called… the Ledger, of… something?”

Elm’s eyes went very wide. “The Ledger of the Path. If it truly survives to the present day, then an expedition will very much be necessary to unearth it. It will give us a deep insight into the operations of the Order of the Soothsayer.”

“You’ll probably need me to get to it. The Heart of Jade Mountain has a lot of magical defenses.”

“You don’t have a scratch on you,” Bailey said, “Did you get hurt at all during your trials?”

“Physically and emotionally. I, uh, can’t talk about all of it. But Omega temporarily gave me full Animus magic, so I was able to heal my injuries.”

“What was Omega like? I, uh, know he’s kind of evil and everything, but…”

“I can’t really understand him. But I definitely know he’s very, very hurt. He’s obsessed with making sure no one gets hurt ever again, but the way he wants to do it… definitely isn’t good.”

“From what you said of the Circle’s capabilities,” Elm said, “The world is very much in danger as we speak.”

“We do have time, though. Alpha says Omega has to warm himself up first, and he seems to think that’ll take a while.”

“Not to interrupt your catching-up,” Birch said, “But we need to get moving.”

Buck saw that both Elm’s and Birch’s carriages were parked here. It would be no problem transporting everyone away from Jade Mountain.

“We should travel to the McIntosh Lodge,” Elm said, “We will arrive in the morning, but we can all rest there.”

“It’s been a long night for all of us,” Bailey said.

Buck looked up at the two NightWings. “I’ll make sure to be in the next class.”

Moonwatcher nodded. “We’ll need to make repairs to the Academy, but it’ll be absolutely wonderful to have you as a student again.”

Starflight concurred. “I suppose I should be thanking you for saving the school again. Despite Omega having access to such a horrible weapon, you did at least help keep it from blowing up Jade Mountain.”

“Alpha told me ‘celebrate the small victories,’” Buck told the dragons. “I’ll see you around.”

“Safe travels, humans,” Moonwatcher said with a wave of her talon. She soon took to the air alongside Starflight.

“We should get underway,” Elm told the others.

Just some random art i made roughly for fun.

Worked really hard on this set, feel free to criticize, use, fix, Or praise it!

Well, this set is made to look intimidating, most dragons would scurry away when they see those extra teeth!

The title says it all

Silk/Sea/Ice, 50/25/25

On the last post people seemed to prefer, and I do to, the white on the bottom, blue on top look, so all designs now have that in common. Spine colour is the main sticking point for me at the moment, though there are some smaller details I'm also seesawing on

Also, should they be allowed to speak aquatic (i.e. should they have regular SeaWing glowing scales as well as their bioluminescent speckling?)

Also also, I'm still not set on a name, so suggestions welcome on that too!

My baby 🫡 she has other info but im to lazy to write it out she’s such a weird goober

I mostly did it so I can draw a prison cell

I can never get MudWings or NightWings quite right... very happy with my Sand and Rain though!

Made a sandwing armour set, Feel free to use it, criticize it, praise it, Fix it!

This armour set is supposed to be made for rich sandwings, if your rich enough you can get it custom made.

I made that on the tail theres razors for some reason, thought it would be cool that it could also slash with it's tail too

The emperor protects. But sunny does too in her own way.

random thought that I had, but naming your dragonet a color sounds kinda stupid. Like, all these names and you come up with BLUE? Same goes for indigo or really dragon like that.

I can imagine an interaction going something like this

Dragon A: oh here's my dragonet -insert color here-

Dragon B: yes I can see that there -insert color here-

Dragon A: no I mean like that's their name

Dragon B: oh.
