Template:Infobox Location The Rainforest Kingdom is a vast jungle that covers most of the southeastern part of Pyrrhia. It is occupied by the RainWings and most of the NightWings, and is currently ruled by Queen Glory.

Description

It consists of giant trees, tangles of vines, and a thick canopy of green leaves overhead. The sounds of howling, buzzing, and a waterfall can be heard in some areas.[1] There are many strange smells, as well as heat that is damp and sticky. There are giant spiderwebs everywhere,[2] as well as at least one river with oozing black mud, reeds, and a huge boulder along its banks.[3] There is a damp layer of leaves[4] and bracken[5] on the forest floor, where it is cool and muddy.[6]

At nighttime, the rainforest is filled with a cacophony of noises from birds, frogs, and insects.[7] It is plentiful in food.[8]

Notable Features

Banyan tree

The Rainforest Kingdom includes a particularly large banyan tree, located a short flight away from the RainWing royal pavilion. It is an enormous, fat tree with bulging branches and knobby roots sticking out from the undergrowth.[9] Its roots, some as fat around as a dragon, extend far, all the way to a wall of bushes where the forest floor begins sloping up.[5]

History

The Dragonet Prophecy

The Rainforest Kingdom was the main setting of the book, where the dragonets of destiny sought safety after escaping the prison in the Summer Palace.

After Starflight, Fatespeaker, and Flame's attempt to escape the NightWing island, Starflight and the others were brought safely inside the Rainforest Kingdom. The NightWings was soon evacuated into when the volcano finally exploded, an event which led to the NightWing Exodus near the end of the book.

The Rainforest Kingdom served as the main place where the dragonets of destiny met to discuss important subjects on how to end the war and home to the NightWings. It was also the place where Sunny was kidnapped by Fierceteeth, Strongwings, and Preyhunter.


The Jade Mountain Prophecy

In the prologue, Secretkeeper visited the Rainforest Kingdom and witnessed Moonwatcher hatching. The kingdom was mentioned throughout the book.

The Rainforest Kingdom is the main setting of the book, where Winter, Qibli, Moon, and Kinkajou searched for answers on Hailstorm and Scarlet's whereabouts. They planned to protect Queen Glory from a possible assassin, Icicle.

Turtle followed Darkstalker to the kingdom and also visited Kinkajou, who was recovering at the time. After awhile, Darkstalker took most of the NightWings to the lost city of night.


Winglets

Fierceteeth shared how, after sneaking through the Rainforest Tunnel with Strongwings, she was ecstatic about the idea of escaping the island by moving to the rainforest. When they returned to the NightWing island the two were barred from returning to the rainforest by Morrowseer; they would be allowed to go back once it was taken over by the NightWings. She then explained to Saguaro how the NightWings could have ensured Burn as the queen of the SandWings if the SandWings had helped her replace Glory as the queen of the Rainforest Kingdom.
