The Lost Continent Prophecy

Queen Snowfall asked Jerboa III to extend the Great Ice Cliff to protect them from the LeafWings and SilkWings, but not only did she not want to, but Jerboa was also unable to complete her request due to animus magic currently being broken.

Queen Snowfall realizes that isolation is the root of a number of problems that the IceWings face, so she uses the gift of strength to destroy a section of the Great Ice Cliff. She mentions that the she plans to return with a larger group later and destroy the remaining sections.
