When I posted Chapter 19, I know I said I'd post the next day, but I got my iPad taken away. Just got it back today, so here's the big reveal.

After a minute or two of silent walking, Angel announced "We're here." She opened the door and they all walked in. "Wow..." Nova whispered. The others seemed to be in awe as well, except Angelfish, who seemed to be used to it. It was huge, with large stalactites hanging from the ceiling. There was a hole in the ceiling too, big enough for dragons to fly through. There was no one else around, so this was perfect. Nova turned to Angel, "Thanks. This is good." She took a deep breath. "Guys, I've been keeping something from you. Something really, really important." Everest looked a little wary after this statement, but stayed silent. Amber, on the other hand, "Are you a mindreader?!" She gasped. "No wait, you don't have those pretty scales next to your eyes." She went silent again. Nova forced a smile, "I'm not a mindreader, I assure you." She explained, "My ancestors were very powerful dragons." Hurricane looked confused, "What do your ancestors have to do with anything?" Nova laughed, "Oh, they have everything to do with what I'm about to tell you." She continued, "Here's a very little known fact about me: I'm part Icewing, but you wouldn't be able to tell, because there haven't been any Icewings in my family for generations. But even more shocking is that I'm related to the Icewing royal family." She let that sink in for a moment before continuing. "You've probably connected the dots by now, but I'm going to tell you anyway." Ok, this is the end. You got this. "I've traced my family history all the way back to Queen Diamond. She had a son, Arctic, who had a son and daughter, Darkstalker and Whiteout. Fast forward about a billion generations, and you have...well, me."
