Hvitur
Hvitur was a moon-silver IceWing and a former member of the Talons of Peace, one who deeply believed in the prophecy. He was originally one of the Guardians of the Dragonets, but was caught and killed by Burn, along with the SkyWing egg, before he could return to the secret cave under the mountains.
Biography
Pre-Series
Hvitur, along with Kestrel, Webs, Dune, and Asha, was charged with the task to find and protect the dragonets of destiny.
During their quest to steal the dragonets' eggs, Hvitur was sent to retrieve the SkyWing egg. He broke into the SkyWing Palace to steal the prophesied "largest egg in mountain high". Unfortunately, on the way out, Burn and two of her guards attacked him. Burn ordered the two soldiers to chain Hvitur with scorching hot chains, preventing him from using his freezing breath on her. During that time, she toyed with the egg and watched Hvitur plead desperately for its safety, which proved his credence and hope for prophecy as well as his willingness to do whatever must be done to make it come true. Annoyed and angry, Burn dramatically dropped the egg off the cliff "by accident" and proceeded to shred Hvitur's wings after the IceWing desperately tried to save the egg. She tormented him saying, "Even if they (the dragonets) do, it'll be far too late for you." Eventually, she stabbed him through the skull with her venom-tipped tail and flung him off the cliff. His screams faded long before he hit the ground.
Some time later, Kestrel found the IceWing's corpse at the bottom of the cliff, along with a few fragments of the SkyWing egg. She entered the cave and told Webs the news, and he told her about Asha.
