Queen Blaze

Lore & Background

Queen Blaze is one of the three daughters of Queen Oasis of the SandWings. When Oasis was killed by three treasure-hunting humans (called scavengers by dragons) without naming an heir, Blaze, Blister, and Burn each claimed the throne. Their rivalry sparked the War of SandWing Succession, a conflict that engulfed most of Pyrrhia for roughly twenty years. The war is the central conflict of the first arc of the series, and the Dragonet Prophecy—given by a NightWing named Morrowseer eight years into the war—stated that after twenty years, a group of five dragonets called the Dragonets of Destiny would be born and bring an end to the war. Throughout the events of arc one, the Dragonets of Destiny (Clay, Tsunami, Glory, Starflight, and Sunny) traveled across Pyrrhia and eventually ended the war by choosing a SandWing named Thorn to be queen using the Eye of Onyx, a magical item used to choose a SandWing ruler.

In Their Own Story

The SandWing throne sat empty. Queen Oasis had been killed by three scavengers—humans who dared to steal her treasure—and she had left no heir. Her three daughters, Blaze, Blister, and Burn, each believed the crown belonged to them. Their rivalry did not stay in the SandWing palace. It spread across Pyrrhia, pulling every tribe into a war that would last twenty years. Blaze was one of the three claimants, and her name was spoken alongside her sisters' in every camp, every council, every prophecy. The Dragonet Prophecy, given by the NightWing Morrowseer eight years into the war, promised that five dragonets would one day choose the true queen. When that day came, the Dragonets of Destiny—Clay, Tsunami, Glory, Starflight, and Sunny—used the Eye of Onyx to select a SandWing named Thorn, not Blaze, to rule. The war ended, and Blaze's claim to the throne was set aside.
