The Scorpion Den on the map.

The Scorpion Den is a location in the Kingdom of Sand. On the map of Pyrrhia, it is marked with an image of a scorpion. The den is the home of the Outclaws, an organization that runs the city. The Outclaws are dragons who are responsible for feeding the starving dragonets and maintaining order.

Appearance

The Scorpion Den is a walled city with winding alleyways and run-down stone buildings. The streets are filled with rickety stalls and tents, most of which sell different types of merchandise. The streets are also crowded and tight, which was discovered by Sunny when she tried walking through the streets but had to sidestep a pair of arguing dragons, got her tail stepped on, and was slapped in the face with a wing. In the center of the town is an oasis that is guarded by the Outclaws, in which young dragonets are allowed to visit every morning for free meals. It is mainly inhabited by SandWings, however, Sunny saw a pair of SkyWings and an IceWing, whom she notes must have been miserable in the heat.

History

The Dragonet Prophecy

Dune stole Sunny's egg from the Scorpion Den in order to complete the prophecy. As thanks for rescuing her, Kestrel told the dragonets where their eggs came from and mentions it to Sunny.

The Brightest Night

Sunny followed Fierceteeth, Strongwings, and Preyhunter into the Kingdom of Sand. They wanted to trade Burn the locations of the dragonets, but decided to get someone from the Scorpion Den to relay the message for them. Before entering, Sunny hid the Obsidian Mirror in the sand dunes outside the city.
