NightWing tunnels

The NightWing Tunnels, also referred to as portals in the series, were created by Stonemover, an animus, and were used by the NightWings to make traveling to and from their island and to other locations easier. There are currently two known portals, both with one side in the Rainforest Kingdom. One leads to the NightWing's destroyed island, and the other leads to the Kingdom of Sand. There may be more, but they have not been specified.

The portals seem to give dragons a tingling feeling in their scales when they are near, described as an "awkward wrongness" and that the portals gave off the "I should not be here" feeling, possibly a result of animus magic (they are also strangely dark inside).

History

The portals were created approximately two years before the dragonets hatched. Stonemover is revealed to be their creator. When the Dragonets of Destiny found the RainWing village, they discovered a strange tunnel inside a rock that led to a location just miles away from Burn's stronghold.

When the NightWings captured Glory and fourteen other RainWings, they were taken through another portal leading to the Night Kingdom. She eventually escaped the NightWings using the portal. Later, she lead her army through this portal to the Night Kingdom. Both portals are presently still intact.

After Stonemover made them, however, he flew away to Jade Mountain to live the rest of his days without using any of his powers and turned the loss of soul into loss of scales, resulting in about half of his body becoming cold, unmovable stone.

Trivia

• The tunnels give off a weird sensation, like they are not supposed to be there, and the sensation grows stronger as you step into the tunnels, as described by the dragonets.
