Tortoise

Tortoise was a female, scrawny, seaweed-green SeaWing with blue-green eyes. She was the representative for the dragonet care position of Queen Coral's council. She was killed by the queen herself for eating an octopus instead of guarding Auklet's and the other dragonet's egg in the Royal Hatchery.

Biography

The Lost Heir

While she was guarding the Royal Hatchery, Shark offered Tortoise an octopus to eat. There was a serious rule against eating in the hatchery because the blood would attract sharks. Tortoise left the room to eat the food provided by Shark. In her absence, Orca's animus enchanted sculpture destroyed one of the eggs and strangled the unhatched dragonet inside.

Queen Coral, on Tsunami's request, arrived with her and Anemone to check on the eggs. When Tortoise saw the Queen, she shrieked and dropped her octopus. Tortoise spotted Shark in the crowd of watching SeaWings and pointed at him, explaining in Aquatic that he had offered her the octopus. Queen Coral didn't know that Orca's statue was animus-touched, so outside the hatchery, Queen Coral violently killed Tortoise as punishment for letting her one of her unhatched daughters die. She ripped out the SeaWing's teeth one by one and then clawed open her underbelly. Tortoise's remains were later cleaned up by Moray.

Trivia

• She, like all other SeaWings, never wanted the job of watching the eggs in the Royal Hatchery.
• A tortoise is a species closely related to turtles, typically a herbivorous one that lives on land.
• Tortoise is probably the only dragon who got violently killed like this by a queen.
