Comettail's Clan

-Clan of the Whispering Athenaeum-

Clan History:

Formerly, the dragons of this clan were from the Clan of the Whispering Plateau, in the Wind Flight. However, the Clan of the Whispering Plateau split peacefully after clan members asked that the clan move to the Light Flight. This was due to the fact that the clan was already in between Light and Wind ideologies, and as time went on the dragons felt they'd fit better in Light.
About two thirds of the clan left the Clan of the Whispering Plateau, including the two original founders. The Clan of the Whispering Plateau was left to be led by Atlantic and Antarctica, two high-ranking members. The departing clan members formed The Clan of the Whispering Athenaeum, keeping the same prefix to remember their heritage but changing the name to fit the spacious, although at the time somewhat crumbling library the clan had settled in.
Currently, the clan has fixed up the library itself and even improved it, and an inn was created for curious visitors. They also have trade going on with other clans, gathering books from all over the continent. However, the clan is now learning about the secrets of the floors underneath the libraries and the ruins around the Athenaeum. The clan's explorers are discovering how mages ran this place in the past, but the details of what happened to this place still are yet to be figured out.

Athenaeum History:

Long ago, the building this clan now lives in was once created and run by mages. The mages had the library at the ground and upper floor for public use and to study themselves. This library became popular with other dragons, and a small settlement formed around it, with an inn, and some mostly-magical shops. The mages welcomed visiting scholars, happy to exchange knowledge.
Meanwhile on lower floors, areas for private study and experiments were built. Not all of the mages there even knew of the extents of these lower floors, since more powerful mages kept their more dangerous and questionable studies in secret rooms protected by magical puzzles and traps. However, these experiments did not stay secret forever, as a magical catastrophe resulted that left the settlement in ruins. The library itself, surprisingly, wasn't left too badly damaged due to having more magical protections on it. However, the mages abandoned it, due to either fear of outrage regarding the lives lost or disgust with the no-longer-secret experiments, depending on the individual.
Long after these events, the soon-to-be Clan of the Whispering Athenaeum discovered this place and rebuilt the library, causing it to be inhabited once more.
