Moorhen

"Burn has promised us immunity from attack for the next hundred years if we help her win. If we don't — she'll destroy us. She is a powerful enemy, little SandWing. A lot more powerful than you, and she's an enemy I don't intend to make."

— Moorhen to Sunny about Burn, The Brightest Night

"But then the war will be over, and perhaps that'll be worth it. Burn has promised us immunity from attack for the next hundred years if we help her win. If we don't — she'll destroy us. She is a powerful enemy, little SandWing. A lot more powerful than you, and she's an enemy I don't intend to make."

"Good luck. You're very small to be in charge of saving the world."

"You want us to send our soldiers all the way to the other side of the ocean. To fight in a war that — I'm so sorry, but — it has nothing to do with us. Our dragons are safe here. That thing over there doesn't even know about us. If we go rile it up, it might come back to attack us and we could lose this continent, too. At least right now, this is a safe place — for us and for you."

― to Hazel and Qibli about the othermind

Trivia

• Tui accidentally made Queen Thorn refer to her as Poopiehen in Darkness of Dragons. This was corrected in the e-book and later printings.
• Queen Moorhen's sister looked so much like her that Queen Snowfall almost "bowed to the wrong dragon."
