Ebony woke up and flew just over the clouds, before she knew it she fell on top of one and had a dragon on her chest. "Get off!" she grunted and breathed a burning hot fire into the dragon's face. The dragon's skeleton fell through the clouds and landed on a tree. As she got up another dragon was on her back, dark spikes extended from her back impaling the dragon killing it. They retracted and the dead dragon fell. Shadow vines grew on the clouds surrounding Ebony, protecting her. They faded and she flew off extremely quick. "Won't let that happen again." she sighed. Her eyes started glowing red, the gem started glowing too and so did her wing membrane, to clear the fog. "Two and a half more moons." she said. "It's impossible to see the sun or moon from here." she said and flew above the fog. The Fool's Gold reflected the moon's light allowing Ebony to see it from the fog and clouds. It would be a long journey until she got there. She would have to fly above the clouds and below the moon's light at the same time. If she were to fall, she would become lost in the forest and turn insane, despite how insane she is now. "Alright, let's try this instead." she thought. She landed on the cloud and flapped her wings. A red light shot from them pointing directly to Yuvon. She flew extremely fast while flying through the red light and would reach there by dawn. The still living things around her seemed to be giving her energy as she flew by. The suns started rising, she could see Yuvon and the small traces of gold still left in the ruins. All of a sudden dark green, withering vines grabbed her and brought her down onto the clouds. A dark-scaled dragon with withering green eyes, just like the vines appeared. "She knew you'd be in the forest, but for an unknown reason. We'll absorb those secrets out from you." said the dragon. Ebony didn't speak a word, the sun near Yuvon turned black and red light came from it, burning the vines and the dragon. It turned back to the normal orange-like yellow. She flew to Yuvon and searched for the still intact library. "I told that wind dragon it wouldn't take me long. But it might be another story for finding that darned library." Finally she found it, she searched for a book that would tell her until she saw something. Ebony's iris became a slit as she stared at the book.
