[scene begins with Serene standing outside the room where the dragons are having a discussion. She listens closely as she hears Frost speaking]

FROST: About an hour ago, we were notified of a sudden temperature drop in the middle of this town. Trechvill.

SERENE: [mutters to herself] Trechvill?

[Serene slowly backs away from the room, quickly heading down the golden hallway. She reaches into her bag hanging over her shoulder, grabbing a small case inside. She opens the case, revealing a small bead, which she uses to plug in her left ear]

SERENE: Okay, listen to me.

[Serene walks into a small room, closing the door behind her as she talks with the dragons across the bead. She waits for a moment to make sure everything is quiet]

SERENE: We might've gotten a location of them.

UNKNOWN DRAGON: Where?

SERENE: There was a temp drop in Trechvill, it could've been the IceWing fighting the Darklass. I need everyone who's willing to fight to prepare, and stay in contact. When I have their exact location, I'll call you again, understand?

UNKNOWN DRAGON: I understand, ma'am.

SERENE: Alright, get into the air in the morning, it'll be soon.

[scene cuts to Lapis standing by herself in the middle of an endless, dark void. She breathes slowly, and she can hear her own breathing. Lapis looks around, barely seeing anything as she takes a step forward. As her talon touches the ground, the surrounding becomes a bright, white void. Lapis sees fading trees in the distance]

[scene cuts to multiple dragons gathering around the injured Lapis. A few dragons are rushing across the room as they try to aid her. Lapis opens her eyes slightly, breathing slower than usual as she closes her eyes again]

NERO: Come on, come on. We're losing her.

ELLY: Lapis, don't go.

DEREST: [rushes over to a table] What's her rate?

MAY: Forty one. [places a healing band over Lapis's snout] She's slowly dropping.

[in her consciousness, Lapis continues advancing forward until she sees a silhouette of a dragon. She immediately stops, squinting her eyes to take a closer look. The silhouette approaches her slowly, eventually revealing to be Farr]

[Lapis gasps in shock, and she grabs her snout with her talons as she slowly cries. Farr continues approaching her, eventually reaching her and standing in front. Lapis sniffles upon seeing him again]

FARR: Lapis...

LAPIS: No, no, no. Farr... [embraces Farr] I'm sorry. I'm sorry I got you killed. I brought you into this, and... [sniffles]

FARR: [grabs Lapis's talons] It isn't your fault, Lapis. You did what's right. The continent would've been gone if it wasn't for you. [wipes the tears from Lapis's snout] You're the most powerful dragon I've ever met.
