The bombimg of the Summer Palace was an event involving the destruction of the Summer Palace, the SeaWings' hidden above water palace, by the SkyWings and MudWings. The attack was an act of the War of SandWing Succession in 5011 AS by Burn's side, and led to the SeaWings backing out of the war and retreating to the Deep Palace.[1] The attack resulted in many SeaWing casualties.
Description
Crocodile, a MudWing working for the SkyWings, infiltrated the Talons of Peace and saved Webs when the talons attempted to kill him, gaining his trust. She tricked him into returning to Queen Coral which allowed the SkyWings to track him, discovering the location of the Summer Palace. SkyWings firebombed the palace with burning logs, which were supplied by the MudWings, and dragonflame cacti, destroying the palace and causing mass casualties. Commander Shark and SeaWings soldiers, along with Riptide, fought back against the SkyWings while civilian SeaWings attempted to escape through the underwater tunnel.
Following the attack, Coral and the SeaWings retreated underwater, hiding in the Deep Palace for the remainder of the war, despite their alliance to Blister.
