The first mission Deathbringer had on the continent was to kill Commander Tempest. His mother, [[Quickstrike]], told him that she was shifting the war too far into Blister's talons.
Tempest arrived at Blister's secret camp along with [[Gill|King Gill]] and [[Piranha]], the council member in charge of warfare.

Her last words were "Well, son of a starfish," as she fell to the ground, dead.

Unfortunately, Quickstrike was struck by lightning upon discovering the camp, and Deathbringer had to complete the mission alone. He waited out the night and the morning until the SeaWing army arrived. Among them were Commander Tempest, Gill, Piranha, and about twenty other SeaWings. Deathbringer saw her and was immediately intimidated, thinking, "''Holy mother of lava, I'm supposed to kill THAT?''"{{Ref|W2|21}}. Tempest was talking out a peace strategy along with Gill, as she didn't want the war to drag on any longer.

Tempest asked all the dragons on the beach to lay down their weapons in the sand. The troops followed her command, but Deathbringer managed to snatch a MudWing spear. He threw it and it pierced her heart, giving the unsuspecting Tempest mere moments to live. She uttered her last words, "Well, son of a starfish", and hit the beach "like a slow avalanche."{{Ref|W2|24}} Gill sobbed heavily and Piranha shrieked in rage at the sight of her fallen commander.
Tempest was mentioned in Coral's [[scroll]] about the War of SandWing Succession.
 
The dragons on the beach went into a state of panic, especially when they saw the note Deathbringer left behind, which read:
 
<p style="font-variant:small-caps;font-size:18px;text-align: center;">This is what we think about your secret deal with Blister. Stay in the water where you belong! The coast of the Mud Kingdom is ours!<ref>''Assassin'', page 25</ref></p>
This made most dragons suspect that a MudWing had killed Tempest, but the real assassin, Deathbringer, returned home to safety. Unfortunately for him, the armies on the beach found half-dead Quickstrike, and Blister ordered her soldiers to "Make her completely dead".
