A NightWing Guide to the Dragons of Pyrrhia
A NightWing Guide to the Dragon Tribes of Pyrrhia is the guide that is present at the begining of every book and is use to give information about the dragons tribes. Some of the information is incorrect, and is mentioned in The Hidden Kingdom (however it is called The NightWing Guide to Tribes). The guide stated that Dazzling was the current queen. It also said RainWings had no natural weapons.
