Part 1, “Under the Mountain,” opens six years into the dragonets’ training. Their minders, or guardians, must prepare them to fulfill the prophecy. The dragonets were placed in the care of several dragons working for the Talons of Peace.

Clay, a MudWing dragonet, is the protagonist in The Dragonet Prophecy. They hail from different tribes in Pyrrhia. The war will have been going on for 20 years by the time the dragonets are predicted to step forward into their roles.Ĭlay, Tsunami, Sunny, Glory, and Starflight are those dragonets, affectionately called the dragonets of destiny by those who believe in them. A prophecy from the NightWings suggests five dragonets born on the brightest night will end the war in Pyrrhia. The nation is at war, divided into factions based on loyalty to three SandWing sisters who are fighting over who should be queen. Pyrrhia is a fictional land occupied by seven dragon tribes and their well-defined kingdoms.
