"Do you think you're done? Do you think you'll ever be done atoning for what you did to Sapphire? It's not going to end, Albatross. You'll always be mine."
— Lagoon to Albatross, right before being killed by him, Darkstalker

(Not to be confused with Lagoon, Queen Coral's cook who was introduced in The Lost Heir.)

Lagoon was an adult female SeaWing queen introduced in Darkstalker and was killed in the Royal SeaWing Massacre by Albatross.

Appearance

Lagoon had sapphire-blue scales[1] and blue wings.[2] She wore a crown[3].

Personality

Queen Lagoon has been shown to be haughty and full of poise, referring to Indigo as a "low-born purple dragonet." She is also rather selfish, as she attempted to use both Albatross's and Fathom's powers for her own needs. She kept Albatross under her control for many years, forcing him to create whatever she desired with his magic, which is likely the main reason why Albatross went insane. It was said in Darkstalker that she ordered Indigo to hunt in the middle of the night because the palace had run out of her favorite snack, displaying her selfish and lazy nature. She also talked to Indigo as if she was a servant. However, she was also said to be skilled at negotiating peace.[4]

Biography

Pre-Series

Queen Lagoon was next in line to rule the SeaWings, along with her sister, Princess Sapphire. She often liked to tease her younger brother, Prince Albatross. One time, while teasing Albatross with Sapphire, Albatross accidentally enchanted a clam to bite all of Sapphire's claws off. Angered by this, after learning of his animus powers, Queen Lagoon forced Albatross to use them for her own reasons, telling him he would never stop atoning for what he did to Sapphire.


The Jade Mountain Prophecy

She was mentioned in the scroll that Moon read to have died in the Royal SeaWing Massacre.

Legends

Queen Lagoon was first seen at a beach near the Island Palace with Albatross for the purpose of testing all of the two-year-old SeaWings for animus magic. She sternly reminded Indigo not to disrupt the process, as she was playfully flicking sand onto Fathom. After a brief quarrel with Albatross, she watched as her brother pulled several coconuts out of nearby palm trees with his magic, instructing the dragonets to pick up their coconuts. After ordering their coconuts to fly through the air to Albatross, Fathom was confirmed an animus as his coconut struck his grandfather in the chest. She congratulated him in a rather sly manner, as she wanted to use his power for her own needs instead of her kingdom.

She was later shown hosting a fancy party intended to negotiate with the SkyWings, as there had been conflict over their shared border. She welcomed the two SkyWing delegates, Sunset and Eagle, displaying an enchanted fountain as proof of her tribe's animus power. After Albatross finally appeared, she scolded him for being late, and in response he slit her throat, killing her moments later.

Relationships

Lagoon did not seem to care about her brother and only used him for his magic. She sees him as expendable and less presentable than the new animus, Fathom.[5] She uses Albatross maiming Sapphire as an excuse so that Lagoon could use his power, saying he would never be able to repay or atone for what he had done, even though it was an accident.[6] Their relationship was strained before her death, in which Lagoon was killed by Albatross's enchanted knife, sending the kingdom into chaos.

Their exact relationship before the animus test was unknown, but Fathom stated that the only time he got really angry was when Lagoon ordered Indigo to go deep-sea shrimp fishing because they had run out.[7] When Lagoon first found out that Fathom was an animus, she was very happy because she now had two animi and that Fathom was much more presentable than his grandfather. Like Albatross, she only wanted to use Fathom for her own selfish purposes. Over time, her comments got meaner and more pointed. This even extended to the point in which she restricted Fathom from meeting up with Indigo to maintain his royal status, which greatly frustrated the young SeaWing.

Lagoon did not express appreciation for the dragonet because she was not of royal origin. Fathom noted that she openly disliked Indigo.[8] She plotted to keep Indigo far away from Fathom, as their relationship was seen as a threat to her and the throne.

She is shown to have respect for her sister despite having turned insane from the incident with Albatross. Lagoon was the only royal SeaWing to visit Sapphire,[9] who was living far away from the family due to her mental condition.

Quotes

"I'd prefer sooner. If we find another animus in the tribe, that would make us twice as powerful, which would be quite useful given how the MudWings and RainWings have been behaving lately. And the earlier we find her, the sooner you can start to train her, and the sooner I can start to use her. Besides, I think we would all prefer to discover our next animus in a less … dramatic fashion than you were discovered. Don't you?"
― to Albatross about testing dragons for animus powers (Darkstalker, page 4)

"You are done complaining about this. The animus tests will continue. You will administer them whenever I tell you to. You will train any dragonet we find with powers like yours. And you will never question my decisions again."
― to Albatross (Darkstalker, page 5)

"But I'm the queen."
― to Albatross, her last words as Albatross kills her (Darkstalker, page 70)
