"Impossible," Deathbringer murmured, staring at the messenger. "They're alive? After all this time?"

The crimson SkyWing nodded. As one of Ex-Queen Ruby's most loyal soldiers, he was one of the few dragons they trusted to bring them information.

"But I thought Darkstalker killed them," Glory interjected, twining her tail with Deathbringer's. She remembered the day clearly. Their daughter had been only a few days old when she was kidnapped by a wing of spies sent by the NightWing king.

"No, he kept them. Most likely planning to use your own dragonets to assassinate you," the SkyWing replied stoically.

Glory shuddered. "He brainwashed them?!" Deathbringer tented a wing across her back, and she could feel him shaking as well.

"Yes," the messenger responded, wincing quite visibly. "He's nothing short of a monster, if you ask me."

Deathbringer and Glory sat there for a moment, watching as the SkyWing slipped out of the room.

"So now what?" Glory whispered. "Do we give up, or go on to fight our own dragonets?"

"We can't give up now, you know that," Deathbringer murmured back. "And our dragonets are strong...they'll make it through and come back to us."

"I hope so," Glory replied, staring into nothingness. "I really do."
