The NightWing-IceWing War was a conflict that occurred two thousand years before the events of The Dragonet Prophecy. It began as an IceWing response to Foeslayer falling in love with Prince Arctic, and them fleeing to the Night Kingdom, of which the IceWings took the wrong way. The war did not have a formal conclusion because the NightWings fled from Darkstalker.
Description
Queen Vigilance sent a delegation comprising of Discretion, Starclaws, and Prudence on a diplomatic visit to the Ice Kingdom, to attempt to negotiate an alliance between the two tribes. Prudence brought her daughter Foeslayer along, predicting that she might fall in love with Prince Arctic of the IceWings, bringing animus genes to the NightWings, and that was exactly what happened. Arctic fled with the NightWings to their kingdom, which resulted in the loss of Animus magic in the IceWing tribe. The IceWings saw Arctic’s runaway as a kidnapping, thus sparking the war.
Most of the battles in the NightWing-IceWing War occurred in the Kingdom of Sand since it lay between the two kingdoms. Scorpion, the SandWing queen of the time, allowed both tribes to fight on her land as long as they stayed away from her oasis towns, and they both paid tributes in the form of large amounts of treasure.
This war led to the longstanding enmity between the NightWings and the IceWings, as seen when Morrowseer had the IceWing prisoners at Queen Scarlet's palace brutally murdered. It is also seen during the empathy spell in Darkness of Dragons when the IceWings and NightWings saw the roots of their mutual loathing.
