The Prophecy

A young black dragon stood in front of a coudren of lava, out of which the head of a she-dragon stuck out. "There must be a Sandwing and a Seawing. Blister will want dragonets in prophecy to be allies. There must be a Nightwing, two at least." the she-dragon rasped. "And no Icewings; one of those would cause problems."

"Agreed. How about this, as a begining?" the young dragon suggested.

"When the war has lasted twenty years ,the dragonets will come. When the land is soaked in blood and tears, the dragonets will come." he said in poetic form.

"Good. Yes. Need more. Mudwing, perhaps? They aren't known for intelligence. One wouldn't be smart enough to betray us." the she-dragon suggested.

"Yes, and a Skywing too; they are know as good fighters. There must be a warrior among them." the male urged.

"Yes,yes, very good, very good. The sixth? Another nightwing?" she asked.

"Yes. Another Nightwing. I was thinking about something along the lines of this." he began.

"The Seawing egg of deepest blue. Wings of night will come to you. For wings of earth, search through the mud, for an egg the color of dragons blood. The largest egg, in mountain high will give to you the wings of sky. And hidden alone form the rival queens, the Sandwing egg awaits unseen. Then from western winds that blow to the east, the greatest shall come to end the war."

"Of three queens who blister and blaze and burn, two shall die and one shall learn, that if she bows to a fate that is stronger and higher, she will poses the powers of the wings of fire."

"Six eggs to hatch on brightest night, six dragons born to end the fight. Darkness will rise to bring the light. The dragonets are coming…"

"Very good, Marrowseer. Very good for young dragon. But there are some parts that might cause I point them out for you?" she asked.

"Yes, Queen Battlewinner." he replied obediently

Battlewinner spoke again, "' Western winds that blow to the east'," she repeated," that is the part that concerns me. As far as any dragon knows, there are no lands to the east of the Seawing kingdom. Even the seawings themselves dare not venture that far. That is how we have kept our home secret for all these long years."

Marrowseer thought for a moment. "Perhaps," he said slowly," there is more to the complications of this than there appears."

"And I expect you to sort them out, before you publish this prophecy." Battlewinner growled. She let out a series of racking coughs that shook her whole body, and she ducked her head under the lava again as Marrowseer thought. When she came up again, he spoke.

"I shall employ Stonemover to help with that line. And I'll find some Nightwing pairs who are willing to time a laying to accord with the Prophecy." he told her, looking up at her expectantly, hoping that he had pleased her.

There were a few moments of silence, and then Battlewinner spoke up. "Then it is agreed. This will be the prophecy that will lead us to our new home?"

Marrowseer nodded slowly. "Yes. It will. I will organise the Talons of Peace to start looking for a safe place to bring up the dragonets. I will see to it that the eggs are set up."

"Good. Do not make any mistakes." Battlewinner told him, nodding. He turned to leave, looking back at her as he reached the secret exit to her "throne room".

"Have I ever?"

And with that, the gears of fate began to turn.

Okay, sorry about how late this is. I've been cought up with this Destiny fic I've been writing, and then I started A Tale Of Grandeur, to be honest, I completely forgot to re-post the chapters for this fic.

I can't wait for Darkstalker to come out! ^^ Who thinks as much as I do that Grandeur also deserves a Legends book? I mean, there is so much lost history she implies about in The Hidden Kingdom, and Tui still has yet to touch on that stuff plot wise.

Hence why I wrote A Tale Of Grandeur.

Also, is anybody interested in a co-op fanfic? I've got some ideas that I haven't written down yet, but it's a little AU featuring Turtle and Peril as the main characters. An AU where the Queens were never established after the Scorching, save the Skywings, the Mudwings, and the Nightwings, and three Sandwing sisters are now fighting for an establishment of a Sandwing throne.

So, just if anyone is interested, PM me. I'll check out your writing, and decide if I like you, then we'll see about writing the thing.

Read and REVIEW!

Cheers!^^
