Pre-Series

Hvitur, Kestrel, Webs, Dune, and Asha were in charge of bringing the dragonets of destiny's eggs to the caves under the mountain, along with the duty to protect and raise them for the job of fulfilling the prophecy Morrowseer had foretold. Unfortunately, Asha died of her wounds shortly after delivering Clay's egg, and Hvitur was in the middle of escaping the SkyWing palace when Burn caught and killed him, stabbing him in the back of his head with her tail barb. Burn also destroyed the SkyWing egg he was supposed to deliver.

His screams stopped long before he hit the ground.

Sometime later, Kestrel found Hvitur's corpse at the cliff's bottom, along with a few fragments of the shattered SkyWing egg.
