The queen as cold as ice
The talons of a dragon who rushed against the cold stone of the underground room clanged desperately and the thunderous frantic wing beats accompanied the distressed dragon. In her side pouch, which was a silky leaf texture, a jingle of sounds could be heard, signifying jewelry or gems. “Queen DuneStone!” she cried out desperately and impenitently, her claws finally coming to a stop and seeping into the stone cracks unconsciously. The gold and ruby of her scales danced and glowed slightly in the fragments of darkness. The sky wing looked up at the queen, not directly in her eyes but nowhere else in particular either, She noticed her own body shook against her will slightly. Dune stared at the Sky wing, practically challenging the animus dragon to look her in the eyes. When that didn't happen, however, she sighed a pitiful sigh “You’ve disturbed my peace, young one. What is the matter?” she asked in a cold tone, the venom which laced it even dangerous than her poisonous tail.
“Your wife, riven.” The dragon started nervously, suddenly she looked down, feeling as cold as ice wing breathe. “She’s dead, your Majesty. I-I couldn't protect her..” she mumbled quietly. The room was filled with silence, the long-forgotten guards which were at their post near by didn't dare make a sound or even breathe. The silence was defining but the queen seemed less than fazed “Let me guess.. her secret lover.. the one we shall not name, killed her. Am I right?” She lazily checked her claws, moons ago the Sky wing had inform her about her lover’s unfaithfulness. In the beginning she was very upset and heartbroken until she just stopped caring and became cold and distant, not wanting to seem weak and vulnerable in front of her kingdom. It was unspoken of until now, “Yes your highness.. I kept a close eye on them for a long time. Last night, on the full moon your lover laid a egg. It was indigo black, similar to his scale color but also a hint of her majesty’s dusty brown specks.” Amaranth spoke, making everyone’s eyes widened. “After that, he killed her and took the egg.” She added quietly.
Suddenly the queen’s mood changed, It became deadly “And your let the egg get away?” She spat with anger, making the younger dragonet look down with a crest fallen look “It was too fast, i was so shocked that I merely forgot your highness..” she squeaked lowly, her eyes suddenly looking at the floor as if a thousand Lizards started to crawl out of them. The Guards complemented punishing the idiotic dragon who failed miserably in the name of their queen, but they knew better. The queen hated when they went anywhere near her little pet, even if she agreed with their opinions, the dragon was special to dune.. Almost like the sky wing was her daughter and everyone knew that despite her strictness. The queen roared in irritation before taking a deep breath “Find the egg, destroy it. I care not that it's the egg of my lover” she responded coldly making Amaranth nod quickly, the terror visible in her eyes. “Shall I go to the rainforest, as where most night-wings live, her majesty?” She asked shakily with worry. Queen glory was a champion, and the foremost reason for peace. If she had never went to the rainforest to find her parents, history would have been different for all of Pyrrhia. It was critical history for all.
“Mmmm~ yes darling. Maybe we ought to teacher those night wings that they should have never gotten too comfortable here, just because some itty bitty colorful chameleon saved them does not mean they respect any more respect. Their insolent fools, even if most of them are good it does not change their all mighty 5 percent..“She snarled, the sky wing didn't say anything and nodded obstinately “Well I suppose we can maybe start small, it only making small fires here and there. Make them paranoid darling, make them see and hear things, then strike. Just like you always do, got it?” she smiled sweetly
“Just be sure to BURN THAT EGG” she added with a roar “NOW GET LOST AND DONT RETURN UNTIL THE DEED IS DONE” Said dune, showing her fangs as if to challenge the Dragon to disobey “Y-yes ma’am!” said Amaranthas she ran, leaving the palace to do her obligations for the sand wing queen, Queen DuneStone.
