'''The Brightest Night''' is when the [[Dragonets of Destiny|prophecy dragonets]] were born. It is when, every one thousand years or so, all three moons are full. [[File:The_False_Brightest_Night.png|thumb|Brightest Night fanart]]
The term '''brightest night''' refers to a celestial phenomenon occurring roughly once every century,{{Ref|TBN|263}} when all three [[moons]] are simultaneously full.

[[King Darkstalker|Darkstalker]] was born on the brightest night, as was supposed to be [[Whiteout]]. The [[Dragonets of Destiny]] were also born on the brightest night. Not much is known about the brightest night though.

It seems that there has been a brightest night during the first arc, but that is confirmed to be false. That “fake” brightest night was really a comet or asteroid or something in space that is bright, looking like a moon. It will probably be in the next about 100 thousand years after TBN.
