In Malefor's kingdom only the richest of the dragon families were allowed to do as they pleased. To their dismay only one dragon was born during the last season, Lumenos. Since he was the only dragon born that season he was always protected and always given everything desired. Except for one thing. He wanted to be Malefor's apprentice. When Malefor refused he couldn't understand why. So he pestered many of the aristocrats until he found out why. Though many of them didn't know why the ones that did wouldn't tell him why. Until one of them finally did. He told Lumenos about Malefor's plan to use Cynder to find the true black dragon to be his apprentice. After that, Lumenos swore that he would find the black dragon so he could kill him and then kill Cynder so he could be Malefor's apprentice to become king.
