Wings Of Fire - Roleplaying Group discussion

This is the main pavilion where both NightWings and RainWings can come. Often important meetings are also held here.

Cloudberry paced in her pavilion, occasionally glancing at the wreaths of flowers across its ceiling

Cloudberry's head snapped up. "Moon? Where have you been?" she rushed over and embraced her, then stepped back. "From Queen Iceflake? Alright, what is it?"

Cloudberry tipped her head, pondering this. "Why have they declared war? Their territories are equal."

Cloudberry closed her eyes. ((great idea about getting others involved. do you want her to declare war?))

((ask PB her opinion too))

((oooh nice...))

Cloudberry nodded once. "I will defend you, sister." she said, taking Moon's talon. "Justice is on our side."

Cloudberry smiled. She beckoned to her messenger, and he flitted over to her. "Alert the RainWings to get ready for war." she said, and he nodded once and zoomed off.

((oooh yeah))

The messenger came back. "The NightWings must also be warned. Tell them that Moon is on our side" she said, and he flew over the treetops to where the NightWing village was

Cloudberry nodded.

Queen Amber landed, she had most of her armor on and had a smile. She held a small scroll in her talons, not have brung her army. This was a peace talk, not a war bringer

((I know, Amber wants to try a few things Moon. I wouldn't say try, reason more))

Queen Amber: And I've got my eyes on you))

Queen Amber: then how do I know that you aren't that deep in the shadows? *watches Moons every step*

Me:*eyes narrow* that's creepy Amber))

Amber:*nodds slowly* sure yew are XDD))

Amber:You really wanna play that game? You are a child Moon, a tiny dragonet that wants war *says dryly*))

Amber: I don't scare anyone, I just want peace. Mind reading dragons are power hungry, I don't have power. I want what is best for my kingdom

(( lol so what does Queen Amber want? I could have some of my RainWings / NightWings come back if u wanna talk ))

(( hehe ))

((Queen Amber wants to have a talk((not fight XDDD)) for peace))

(( with who? *skeptical expression* XD ))

((*sarcastic voice* hmm, idk, with the Sandwing Queen!?!? XDDD, try to reason wit Cloudberry by anybody is okay))

(( i think she should talk to the icewing queen hehe jk I'll rp Cloudberry and Eclipse here. pretend this is after she made an alliance with queen iceflake ))

Queen Cloudberry swept in with Eclipse right behind her, in the middle of a conversation. When she set eyes on Queen Amber she held up a talon, and Eclipse stopped, staring at Queen Amber. "Hello!" the queen said brightly, and settled onto the dais. "How can I help you?" she was hoping nothing bad would happen, and signaled Eclipse to be on the lookout

Queen Amber smiled sweetly at the Queen of Rainwings, She looks very nice she thought kindly. "I just came to try to avoid this war. I don't enjoy the bloodshed. I wanted to convince the tribes that war is not the answer" everything the queen said she believed herself.

Queen Cloudberry toyed with a bright white lily necklace she was wearing, her scales shifting to a mellow purple. "Queen Iceflake pointed out that you were the one who started the war by forcibly putting her dragons into the arena." she said mildly, not pointing out that technically Moon was one of hers

Amber bowed her head, "Iceflake actually agreed. I have thousands of witnesses that were in the arena. I wouldn't ever put dragons that didn't do major harm in the arena without the queens permission!" She couldn't believe that Queen Cloudberry had actually believed her alley! Well, that was sort of obvious the queen would listen to the lead one. "Queen Iceflake struck first, and I wouldn't ever think of hurting one! Ask any of the dragons in my arena, I wouldn't even speak to them. Maybe my guards? They were right next to us when we discussed it"

"Well, even if they did," here, Queen Cloudberry made air quotes, " 'small harm', you will still put them in your arena. Am I correct?" she asked, tipping her head. "And are all of your so called 'witnesses' loyal to you? I mean, who would dare speak out against their rightful queen, right?" Eclipse made a sudden motion but blended back into the shadows once Queen Cloudberry flicked her tail towards her

Queen Amber felt as if she had worked out all the kinks, "Not all Skywings are loyal to me. I would never punish a Skywing for telling the truth, nor would I for them telling a lie. I'd only punish one if they tried to kill others" this was very true. Hawk died because he went to kill Amber. Breeze fought in the arena simply because she felt like it. Soulreader was put in prison because he tried to kill all the Skywings and tried to target the royal family. "From one Queen to another, I advise that we stop this war peacefully. I'd had a dream..." She trailed off, waiting for the queens cue that she wanted to listen.

Queen Cloudberry hid a smile. Of course Queen Amber wanted her to hear her story, it probably included all types of propoganda. But yet, she did admit that not all SkyWings were loyal to her, which was a surprise. Eclipse closed her eyes, listening into Queen Amber's brain and thoughts. She had already seen a horrifying image of Queen Amber getting ready for battle with elaborate armor on, and bits of her future sight struck her with bloody omens

Queen Amber glanced around the room, not for any reason other than to see the flowers bloom. "A dragon came to me, telling me that the war would end in horror and destruction. It showed me an image, dragons, both Icewings and Skywings with Rainwings and Nightwings, holding heads in triumph. Blood streaked across their faces and I am hurt to see that me and Iceflake were not one the of the heads nor one holding a head. It was Queen vs Queen, but it didn't seem like an Amber Iceflake battle. Our faces were stained with blood and we looked like insane animus dragons. Ones that had lost our souls very quickly" she stopped for a moment, trying to imagine the scene again. It was the only thing that was on her mind other than war plans, "I'm sorry to say but you and the other queens were not in that dream but some dragons from other tribes were the ones with no heads. The dragon didn't talk much, only show me disturbing things. If you want to not throw up, I won't tell the rest"

Queen Cloudberry narrowed her eyes. "Who exactly told you this?" she said, starting to eliminate possibilities.

Eclipse gasped and immediately clapped a talon over her mouth, inwardly cursing at herself

Queen Amber shrugged, "Hard to tell, they stayed mainly in the shadows, their voice seemed to come from all directions" she tried to remember if it ever came into her view. "Since you are with the Icewings, I was hoping that you could share the dream. I hope it isn't a vision, but thankfully if it was, visions can be changed, right?" She forced a smile, blocking off panic

Queen Cloudberry shot a glance at where Eclipse was. "I haven't had the dream, so I don't intend to share it." she said carefully, not wanting to anger Queen Amber. "This seems kind of suspicious, so I suggest you don't pay attention to it unless you know the source"

(( i gtg sorry :( see u tomorrow mornin ))

Queen Amber tilted her head a bit, "I'm surprised at you Cloudberry" she murmured, tail flicking the floor. She tucked her giant wings in, seeming unusually calm. "I'd think that you'd want peace after this omen. That terrible dream" Why doesn't she just get a Nightwing to tell if I'm lying? she wondered, hoping that a little friend hadn't followed Amber from the palace. "Hmm, if it's war they want. It's war they'll get" she crushed a leaf in her talons

Brightstream slowly revealed herself, a cruel smile forming on her face. This was an interesting conversation! Queen to Queen. Nightwing, Skywing, Rainwings. Two with two. Just splendid. "Oh hello Cloudberry" she said, her voice filled with delight. She could tell that Amber wasn't happy that she had followed her to this place

Queen Cloudberry looked startled that Brightstream was here. "Hello." she said, a little warily. "Haven't seen you around in a long long time. Where have you been?"

Eclipse narrowed her eyes at the newcomer. She had heard stories about the RainWing, but she had never seen her in the flesh and scale. She cautiously stepped out of the shadows, and Queen Cloudberry for one didn't berate her for stepping out of line.

Brightstream laughed a bit, "Can't believe we ran into eachother" she said sarcastically. "Killing dragons, revenge story, the usually" the Rainwing was actually picturing Cloudberry'd head on her wall. What would that represent? Pride? Delight? Maybe a mix of all emotions, including guilt.

Queen Amber glared at Brightstream, "I thought you were to stay at the palace" she said lightly. Her tail swayed behind her, bowing apologetically, "I'm sorry for her dropping in, she wasn't supposed to be here"

Brightstream smiled sweetly at Amber, "Amber, it's so boring there though"

Queen Cloudberry let out a little laugh. "You know Brightstream, nothing is ever enough to satisfy you." she said, and turned to Eclipse. "Eclipse, this is Brightstream."

Eclipse edged a little closer, picking up on swirling dark thoughts from the RainWing's mind. She flashed an image of Queen Cloudberry's head on a wall, and she flinched

Brightstream laughed at Eclipse flinching, bowing her head respectfully. "Hello Eclipse, did my image scare you?" She asked with interest, darting around the crossbreed and examining her. "Very strange!" Brightstream was delighted to meet Eclipse and wondered how well she'd fit next to Tooth.

Eclipse shook her head vehemently, and shied away from Brightstream's examination. Queen Cloudberry narrowed her eyes and turned to Queen Amber. "You want peace." her voice held a hint of skepticism.

Queen Amber suddenly had a bright smile, "Exactly, but we are willing to fight it necessary" she toyed with gold coins that seemed to have randomly appeared in her talons. Her tail flicked knew the ground.

Brightstream sat, wanting to know if this battle would end up in violence. It would be very interesting if it did

Eclipse blinked and flicked her tail, a little nervously. "I..."

Queen Cloudberry didn't hear her. "Hm." she said. "Not sure if you could offer anything better than Queen Iceflake. I've already struck a deal with her."

Queen Amber's eyes narrowed, "I can offer you quite a lot darling. Land. Money. Troops even after the war. Pick one, I got more" she flicked the coin away from herself, the gold clattering against the ground.

Brightstream laughed that Eclipse had been interrupted. She took a couple steps towards her, tongue flicking in and out

Eclipse saw Brightstream coming towards her and stood a little straighter, opening her wings slightly and a low growl developing in her throat.

Queen Cloudberry's expression morphed into sympathy. "You see darling," she said, throwing Queen Amber's phrase back at her. "Moon has already picked her side. And she's one of my most trusted advisors."

Queen Amber nodded, "Alright, I just want you to know that she fought in my arena without Iceflakes order, and without my order." Her tail swayed behind her. "Honestly, she complained that I hadn't allowed her to kill Hawk" she turned to Eclipse, amusement in her eyes

Brightstream held her head up, noticing how Eclipse straightened. She circled the crossbreed again, laughing. "Calm down sweetheart, your head isn't mounted on my wall yet "

Eclipse looked confused, but quickly wiped her face clean. "Just like Burn." she murmured, shaking out her wings and a low thump could be heard as she whapped her tail against the wooden floor

Queen Cloudberry refused to let Queen Amber under her skin. "I've heard that you were unsuccessful in gathering allies."

Queen Amber smiled, turning her attention to Queen Cloudberry, "There are many rumors that go around, I wouldn't believe them" she tapped her chin. She stared at Brightstream, restraining herself from stopping the Rainwing

Brightstream looked as if Eclipse had not said a thing, "Burn shriveled because she was dumb to not think about two vipers"

Eclipse's mouth curled into a bitter half smile. "Vipers can come in many different forms."

(( GET ROASTED BRIGHTSTREAM !!!!!! lel ))

Queen Cloudberry arched her eyeridge. "So you're not denying it."

(( score 1 for eclipse haha ))
