Biography
She first appeared standing guard in the tunnels. Ivy was impressed with her calm, focused and unimpressed face, and tried to imitate it. Foxglove was shown to not trust Heath as she asked him where he was going and refused to listen to him when he told her that he was above the law. Ivy then tried to follow her father, making up a cover story about giving him a potato. Despite not believing the story, Foxglove let Ivy through after asking if she could keep secrets. Foxglove and Ivy walked outside and spotted Heath heading in the direction of the old village.
While they were outside, Ivy and Foxglove heard a huge roaring which turned out to be coming from a NightWing. Foxglove helped Ivy up a tree and told her not to move until the dragon had gone. She then said that only a coward or an idiot would run from a dragon. This confused Ivy as her father had run from the dragon, but no-one could call the Dragonslayer a coward.
Ivy then confessed to Foxglove that she loved the dragon. Foxglove replied that she loved dragons too, and that she would put in a good word for Ivy if she wanted to be a Wingwatcher. Foxglove then promised to give Ivy a little early training if she promised not to tell anyone.
