When Princess Sapphire was young, she and her sister teased Prince Albatross on a beach when he was playing with a shell and pretending it was a dragon's mouth. Princess Sapphire tried to take the shell away, ridiculing him all the while, but Prince Albatross then spoke to the shell, "Bite her! Bite all her claws off!" and the shell followed Albatross' orders, Albatross not knowing he was an animus at the time. Albatross mentions that it took days to clean up all the blood in the sand. This was the first time Prince Albatross had used his animus powers, and he used this story to make sure Fathom didn't get carried away in his magic training sessions. Ever since Princess Sapphire's claws have been taken off, she had been unable to hunt or battle, and lived away from the palaces. Albatross says she went slightly mad becuase of the incident. She lives alone on an island, tended to by well-payed servants. Queen Lagoon occasionally visits her, but Albatross has not seen her since he tore her claws out. Albatross assumed that Sapphire would never want to see him again after what he did to her. Soon after that, Fathom mentions that Sapphire might be the only royalty family member left to rule the kingdom (turns out to not happen).

"Everything you have will be mine when I'm queen, you know. Even stupid beach trash like this."
— Sapphire to Albatross, Darkstalker

Sapphire was an adult female SeaWing princess who was mentioned in Darkstalker. After losing her claws to a clamshell enchanted by Albatross, she went insane and was stationed on a remote island within the Kingdom of the Sea under the care of two very well-paid servants.

Description

Sapphire had no claws.[1]

Personality

Sapphire was mocking towards Albatross when they were younger, reminding him that once she began ruling the Kingdom of the Sea, she would own everything, even beach trash.[1] After the clamshell incident, she devolved into insanity.[2]

Biography

Pre-Series

When Lagoon and Sapphire were dragonets, they teased Albatross while he was playing with a clamshell. Sapphire attempted to take the clamshell away, taunting Albatross and claiming that one day, everything would be hers, even the clamshell. Albatross was not aware of his animus powers at the time, and therefore never expected his verbal order to be followed, but he commanded the shell to "Bite her! Bite all her claws off!"

Since that day, Sapphire had been unable to hunt, battle, or swim efficiently, thus she could never be queen. She avoided the SeaWing palace and was stationed on a remote island with the company of two particularly well-paid servants. It was mentioned that Sapphire developed both insanity and a probable hatred for Albatross after the incident on the beach. Lagoon was the only known dragon to have ever visited her.
