Synopsis
The graphic novel adaptations of the #1 New York Times bestselling Wings of Fire series continue to set the world on fire!
One will have the power of wings of fire …
Sunny has always taken the Dragonet Prophecy very seriously. If Pyrrhia's dragons need her, Clay, Tsunami, Glory, and Starflight to end the war, she's ready to try. She even has some good ideas how to do it, if anyone would listen to her.
But shattering news from Morrowseer has shaken Sunny's faith in their destiny. Is it possible for anyone to end this terrible war and choose a new SandWing queen? What if everything they've been through was for nothing?
Buried secrets, deadly surprises, and an unexpected side to scavengers are all waiting for her in the shifting sands of the desert, where Sunny must decide once and for all: Is her destiny already written?
Or can five dragonets change their fate and save the world … the way they choose?
Plot
Prologue
Twenty years prior to the events of arc 1 (books 1-5), Queen Oasis has a hunch about the SandWing royal treasure and decides to check the SandWing palace treasury. She bumps into Blister and Blaze on the way, with Blister deciding to follow Oasis. Oasis and Blister find the SandWing treasury empty via Stone, Heath, and Rose. Oasis decides to send Blister to wake Burn while she fights the humans to reclaim her treasure. Oasis' final thought before being sent to her death is "After all... what's the worst thing that could happen?"
Part One: The Shifting Sands
Picking up where The Dark Secret (graphic novel) left off, Sunny, distraught from Morrowseer's revelation that The Dragonet Prophecy is a farce, runs from the exploding NightWing island into the Rainforest Kingdom, which is now packed with NightWing refugees. Glory addresses the RainWings about living in the Rainforest when Tsunami and Clay emerge from the tunnel with Starflight using his claws to cover his burned-away eyes. As Sunny tries to head for her friends, Fierceteeth, Strongwings, and Preyhunter suddenly drag her into the forest.

Variation from novel
- After Scarlet gives in to Peril's demands, Peril says "The NightWing", even though Thorn was originally the one who said the line.
- In the epilogue, Tsunami is the one saying that she does not like the idea of Scarlet being out their instead of Sunny.
Trivia
- On page 112 of the graphic novel, during the scene where Smolder leads Sunny and Thorn into the SandWing palace library, several letters can be seen that are labeled to unknown recipients - Sage, Boil, Swelter, and Ash. It is unknown if these names were added randomly or will be future characters in Wings of Fire (series).
- Sage was a character mentioned in The Flames of Hope, but it is unclear if they are the same character.
