- "Yes! I think my songs can make a difference! [...] That's what music is for! The whole point is for dragons to hear it and feel braver or understood or more sympathetic to someone else. That way they can be strong enough to stand up when they have to."

Biography
The Forgotten Isles Prophecy
When Umber and Sora first arrived at the Court of Refuge, Aurora was seen on a poster for an upcoming Northern Lights concert. Umber noticed Sora narrowing her eyes at one of them, making him worry that seeing any IceWings, even a hybrid, would make her upset.
Aurora later appeared when Umber attended a Northern Lights concert with Sora, Quokka, and Paua. Aurora flew down onto the stage and sang one of her songs. After Platypus took Umber to Aurora's room to escape from Taipan, Royal, and Dugong, Aurora stormed in, upset that Platypus released notes at the concert as a protest. The two argued over how to make change, Aurora believing that her songs empowered others, but Platypus thinking that they were too vague and did not do enough. The conversation is cut short as they all realized someone, who ended up being her brother Borealis, had been listening to their conversation. Later, Aurora and Borealis put on another concert that gets interrupted by Snakeroot as he tells a prophecy.
When Umber, Platypus, and Quokka were working to free Mulberry from his parents' bedroom, Platypus got Aurora to help them. Aurora offered the guards on watch, Ravine and Quoll, a platter of sweets with sleeping powder on them. The guards, delighted by her presence, took, ate, and eventually fell asleep after they flew away to share one with some other guards. Later, Aurora was imprisoned by Beryl for helping Mulberry escape, but was freed in the end after Beryl and Snakeroot were usurped from their false thrones.
Relationships

Quotes
- "But they know that, Platypus! Everyone knows that, but no one knows what to do about it! I don't think it's wrong to try and make dragons happy, or to give them all something that brings them together when everything is terrible. At least my music can make them feel less alone! I mean, that's what I'm trying to do — I don't know if it's working, but I'm not doing nothing!"
- ― to Platypus about Beryl being a terrible queen (The Hybrid Prince, page 136)
- "I miss you, noisy chaos dragon."
- ― to Platypus (The Hybrid Prince, page 138)
- "You should care. [...] If she gets her talons on you, you'll disappear like the dragons who wrote that pamphlet about her. Or the one who asked about her succession plans in front of the whole court. Remember? No one ever saw him again? Or even if she just puts you in the dungeon, I'll be so sad."
- ― to Platypus (The Hybrid Prince, page 138)
