Plot
Prologue
Set one day prior to the brightest night, Hvitur is attempting to escape the Sky Kingdom with a stolen SkyWing egg needed for The Dragonet Prophecy. During his escape, he was spotted by lookouts and Burn captures Hvitur and stops his escape. Burn then drops the SkyWing egg over the cliff after learning its purpose in prophecy, aiming to render the prophecy impossible. She subsequently attacks and throws Hvitur over the cliff, killing him, after he attempted to save the egg from falling.
Some time later, Kestrel gathers an eggshell from the destroyed SkyWing egg at the bottom of the cliff and enters into the caves under the mountains to meet with members from the Talons of Peace. Kestrel meets with and tells Webs about the destruction of the egg and that the prophecy was over. She is told of Asha's death from Webs after Asha delivered the MudWing egg to the caves. Webs doesn't believe that the prophecy is over and chooses to go to the Rainforest to acquire a RainWing egg in place of the SkyWing egg.
