Opal

"No, I died a long time ago — I created my one animus gift, and then had a long happy normal life as an IceWing. I just left a bit of my spirit in the ring to keep track of the visions and have this last conversation when the ring has finished its work."

— Opal to Snowfall, The Dangerous Gift

Biography

The Lost Continent Prophecy

The Dangerous Gift

Snowfall often yelled at the gift of vision and its creator. She wondered what kind of IceWing animus would do this, along with who would even ask for it.

Opal appears in Snowfall's vision the night after she returns from Sanctuary. She explains to Snowfall how the ring appears for queens who weren't quite ready to rule and gives her one final vision as Glacier. After the vision, the opal ring slides off of Snowfall's claw easily and disappears when put back on the pedestal where she first found it.

Known Enchantments

Phrasing	Target	Intention
"Phrasing unknown."	Gift of vision	It is enchanted and only shows up for certain queens who aren't ready or need to be taught a lesson to become more open-minded. The wearer cannot take this ring off until they have fully learned their lesson and it can't be destroyed. It allows the wearer to see visions through other dragons while the wearer themselves is sleeping, which makes them more open-minded towards other dragons' situations and circumstances.

Quotes

"Why do you think I made the enchantment the way it is? She became queen before she was ready, too, and she was so scared and furious all the time. She asked me for an animus gift that would let her spy on all her enemies both outside the kingdom and inside her own tribe. I made her this instead."
