Deep in the rainforest, a NightWing was waiting.

Waiting for his mate, to be exact. And for his egg to hatch, because that's how all prologues start.

At least in decent WoF fan fiction.

Moondestroyer soon spotted his RainWing-SandWing mate, Thyme crashing through the forest.

"How's it doing?" Thyme whispered softly. She came over and sat by Moondestroyer, putting her wing around his.

Suddenly there was a rustling noise.

Moondestroyer turned to see one of their two eggs (because that's totally how dragon eggs work) roll out of the nest and into the moonlight.

Three moons... he thought ad as the egg turned a weird color.

It was silver but also green but also gold and kind of just rainbows everywhere.

The other egg was still a bland sedated lime green.

"What happened to our egg?" Thyme asked frightenedly.

"I-I don't know!" Moondestroyer told her.

"Well I'm finna find out." She said in her silly RainWing slang.

There was a sudden cracking noise. Both dragons turned to see the egg in the moonlight crack open.

Their hearts beat in delight as they saw the beautiful dragonet climb out.

"She's perfect" Thyme whispered.

"Why are we whispering?" Moondestoryer asked.

"IDK lmao."

The dragonet pushed away at her eggshell enclosure with grace.
The moons illuminated her, bathing her with silver. It brought out all the shimmering amazing beauty in her scales.

Upon closer inspection, the dragonet had silver scales by her eyes that changed color. They flashed through black, gold, silver, and a multitude of other colors.

She had the traditional RainWing ruff by her ears, but also a crown of horns. She had a crest like a SandWing and starry scales on the underside of her wings, spraying out against the now golden backdrop.

Moondestoryer noticed that the scales that were clearly NightWing were totally silver under no light, but like holo glitter that sparkled rainbows under moon or sunlight

Clouds of pink drifted through Thyme's scales, followed by rolling waves of purple.

The little dragonet watched. She tilted her head, then copied her mother. When she saw Thyme's delighted expression, she flicked her tail, which oddly enough had a SandWing barb, even though her mother didn't.

Thyme was struck with an idea
(Because in fanfictions we can just switch POV without anyone caring.)

Baring her fangs, she spat venom onto a leaf beside her. The black goop immediately sizzled through the lead.

The dragonet watched, then copied her. The venom stopped the first from acting.

That's weird, thought her father, she has RainWing venom, SandWing poison, and NightWing powers? Seems a little op but whatevz.

"What do you think we should call her?" Asked Thyme.

As if responding to the question, the dragonet scampered off and brought back a plant.

"Whoa! She's barely even an hour old!" Moondestroyer said.

"I feel like she just chose her name." Thyme said. Leaning down to look at the plant, she smiled.

"Perfect. I love you, my sweet dragonet!" Her mother said.

"Welcome to the world, Coriander." Her father smiled.

And of course the other egg hatched but no one cares.
