I enjoyed this one.
Unpacking Rainwing culture. Lots of questions around morality, social responsibility, what it means to be part of a community and another angle on the question of belonging from Glory: a dragon who has grown up believing she doesn’t belong with the Dragonets of Prophecy, either.
Some fun mysterious and magical antics, Nightwings begin to play a larger role, and I’m loving how differently each dragonet’s experience of “their tribe” is turning out to be.
Bonus: blind dragon! And pretty well handled imo. Minor character.
The question of who will win the war and how just got interesting!
