Thorn looked around herself, rubbing her eyes tiredly. She had been in the dungeons all day, making sure that the prisoners from war were released.
Then, a yell echoed from the darkness.
"Who's there??!" Thorn shouted, starting forward, her eyes darting around. "Show yourself!!"
The voice chuckled. "Ah. Queen Thorn. I've heard of you."
A dragon stepped up to the bars of her cage. She was thin and moved like a mink, staring at Thorn with a determined look.
"Who... are you?" Thorn asked slowly.
"I am Quickstrike. And I assume you are here to get me out."
Thorn nodded slowly. "You don't look like you're from the Rainforest." She commented.
Quickstrike looked a bit surprised. "I'm not. Don't tell me the NightWings actually took over the RainForest." She hissed.
Thorn shook her head. "Nope. The all-mighty NightWings have a RainWing as a queen." She replied with a chuckle.
Quickstrike sighed. "Well. I suppose that's slightly better." She said. Thorn grinned.
"You don't say." She grunted.
"If you're letting me out, I have a request." Quickstrike told Thorn.
"I don't follow. You want to have another favor?" Thorn asked, raising an eyebrow.
Quickstrike rolled her eyes. "Listen. This is important." She growled.
"Where is Deathbringer?"
