Wren POV

Sky landed next to Winter. Apparently, they were in the NightWing village. Wren had decided it was best not to speak Dragon in front of anyone else. It might be dangerous.

The dragons that had brought them here - Orchid and Greatness apparently (Not that there was anything great about Greatness) - had been told to find Deathbringer and tell him that Murderbasket wanted to see him.

Meanwhile, Winter had gone and sat done glaring at all the NightWings who all glared back, Kinkajou had bounded away with a wave and Sky had started cooing at a sloth. So now Wren was extremely bored. She swung her sword out and started to slice a nearby watermelon. Her sword skills had improved since the day she met Deathbringer and she cut the watermelon into sixteen slices with minimal effort.

Sky bounded over with a sloth sitting on him and sat next to her. Picking up a slice and, he offered the rest to the NightWings who all gave Sky very haughty looks and ignored the watermelon.

Wren remembered just in time that she wasn't supposed to speak Dragon, so she glared at the NightWings, patted Sky's talon, and started swinging her sword again.

Then Deathbringer came flying down with a green-coloured RainWing that looked sort of familiar. He saw Wren with her sword and immediately said, "Stop that, I do not want to get stabbed again." That earned him some odd looks.

Wren grinned, beckoned to him, and they went to a more remote part of the forest. Sky, (the sloth,) the RainWing followed, and Winter flew away with a huff.

They sat down in a small clearing with the RainWing giving Deathbringer questioning looks.

"This, my Queen, is why you should be cautious around scavengers," Deathbringer explained with a sigh.

Queen, this must be Glory then. "Hello Queen Glory, my name is Wren. This is Sky who is basically my brother. And we both know Deathbringer."

Glory's scales turned to a mixture of light purple and dark green before flickering back to their original state.

Deathbringer looked at her, amused, "You know, Glory, that little scavenger managed to stab me twice in one day. I bet even you couldn't do that." He held up a talon, and Wren saw that there were two small scars in the spots she had pricked him one and a half years ago. "I bumped into her just before I met you actually."

Glory rolled her eyes at Deathbringer, "met is not the right word. Anyways," she turned to Wren, "Hello Wren, and of course Sky and Prince Winter. Welcome to the Rainforest. I see Sky has already acquainted himself with a sloth. One thing though, Sky, no fire in the forest, agreed?"

Sky looked down at his talons, "ActuallyIdon'thavefire."
