The Rose and The Pearl
POV: Vardan; Mentioned: Avoria

I’m sorry, Vardan.

“Harrai!” Vardan woke with a start. He saw the empty sands before him, dark and ebony in the night, and he felt the chill of the wind brush against his feathers. He was outside, he was outside. Forcing himself to breathe the chilly night air, Vardan ducked his head and stared at the ground beneath him where his paws had burrowed beneath the sands. Harrai.

The Saints
None mentioned

The Saints. Nine dragons caught in time who sacrificed themselves—their very lives—for the glory of their cause. We remember them for what they were and what they are: heroes.

Ravens and Crows
POV: Orpheus, Nyx

Two assassins stood alone in a wood. Hidden in the brush, they kept their ears turned towards the south of the forest, two pairs of green eyes intently waiting for movement. Around the skydancers, snow fell in a quiet, slow way. It muffled the sounds of the forest, but the ears of the assassins were keener than most.

Trust
POV: Aelius, Rairye

“Aelius.”

Rairye stood primly, hands clasped behind his back. The cool air of the caves chilled his arms, but he’d long since grown familiar with the sensation. Before him was an imperial, with wings like a sunset and his body lined by dark kohl and shimmering gold paint. His wind green eyes met Rairye’s and an easy smile fell into place when he saw his old friend.

Mira’s gaze was empty, unforgiving. “It’s too late for that, Atorus. Bellaria is already dead. And you can’t undo something like that.”

POV: Euria

He was a king and the father to future kings. From his throne of roots and stone, he bled his lifeblood into the heart of the forest. “This,” he would say, old bones creaking with the trees, “is what it means to be a nature dragon. This is what it means to rule.” The clan was believed to thrive from his yielding of life, as the forest returned the gift threefold.
