Zynith was apart of the Spirituals dragon kingdom. His life was a mess, he was orphaned at a young age. None of the caretaker places had room for him. One day, A dragon from the Queen's messengers core approached him, and offered him the ability to start training for the messenger core, so that he would have a home, plenty of food, and respect. Zynith accepted the offer quickly. His training took about four years, in which he became friends with many of his learning mates, and went through rigorous training about security and threats of his duty. After his training, he began to run messages through the kingdoms. Since he was a Spiritual, the troops of the different kingdoms would often let him through without trouble. A lot of the time he would see troops of the kingdoms leaving for battle against the other alliances they were at war with. Ah, the war, it all started because of a collective territory's council meeting, he thought. The council of the collective territory's was a meeting of dragon queens, in this meeting there were four queens. It is unknown how but after many high painful roars, the queens guard burst into the chamber, they found three of their queens dead, while the fourth, the Spirituals Queen Astral, was in a corner severely wounded. Her own guards ran to her asking what had happened, she could only mutter a few words, “Attacked, by, something...” before it seemed her mind collapsed upon itself from pure terror, never to speak or really think again. The healers took her back to the palace, where even today she sits, with glazed eyes staring off into the distance, barely eating and drinking anything. The other three queens were, Queen Fir'wen of the Flaming Kingdom, Queen Dune of the kingdom of Destisian, and Queen Flurry of the kingdom of the freezing wind. The Kingdoms began to blame each other for the deaths of there queens, seemingly forgetting about what Astral, Our queen, had said, and eventually alliances were formed and war began. The kingdom of the Flaming and Dwellers became allied, The kingdom's of Destisian and Waves formed A alliance, and the kingdom of the Freezing wind Formed a Defensive alliance with their neighbors, the Grassians. It has been over twenty years since the war started, and the Spirituals have been used as diplomatic messengers between the kingdoms, attempting to stop any unnecessary attacks against any of the peaceful healing caverns and caretaker caves. The warring kingdom's agreed to this via the spirituals, as it was against the code of the dragons to attack the orphaned, and to attack and kill the severely wounded in care of any healers. But, sadly mistakes have happened before, and that's why the spirituals, always seen as non-aggressive, were charged with the task of delivering mainly diplomatic scrolls, and rarely scrolls of crime. This has continued ever since, and was what Zynith had become a part of. Today however, was the day Zynith would finally get some time off from his duty. The Messages had been increasing in large amounts recently, about many violations of the agreement, talking in disgust of what had been found in some of the healers locations. To make matters worse, Some of the kingdoms began accusing the spirituals of tempering with the diplomatic messages and the communications withing, blaming us and in their words, our “Useless” Queen. Because of this, messages increased as several new situations arised, and some of the core have disappeared out on flights, exhausting Zynith and the others with all the extra work. But as of today Zynith was not working, he decided to go and relax near the waterfall, as many used this area to feel re-energized. He lay-ed down on a rock nearby, and slowly drifted off to sleep with the sound of the waterfall...

Zynith was dreaming, he could tell. Visions came across his vision, he started seeing a fire, heard screams, and saw a cave flash by. What was that? He wondered. Than many more flashes flew by, and old prophecy from centuries ago, lightning and fire, screaming dragons, and than a Owls face appeared, surrounded by thousands of symbols. Within moments he collapsed back into deep sleep, in confusion his thoughts wondering why a owls face had came into his dream.....
