The Mud Queendom was without a doubt the biggest loser of the Great War, its territory was invaded by all sides, the MudWings suffered the highest casualties in the war, with the SeaWings being a close second. So rarely in its history had such tremendous amount of orphans and siblingless dragons that entire sibling groups were formed to the point none of the dragons were related whatsoever.

Leading the effort lies Queen Moorhen, often known as the matriarch of Pyrrhia, at her 217 years old and ruling for over 204 of those, the elderly dragoness had seem too much in her life to be surprised at all. Unlike other younger and ambitious queens, Moorhen firmly believed healing came from taking a proactive effort to the lives of the MudWings to restore her land to its prime, such example would be the Diamond Spray delta, scorched was once the breadbasket of eastern Pyrrhia, behind its intent, to starve the enemy.

The MudWings begun restore the soil, planting new seeds, cultivating. Where many saw destruction beyond healing, they saw an opportunity to grow something new, new families moved there and imported materials, soon the first village was restored, then the next, within a year the soil would grow vibrant once again.

Queen Moorhen didn’t demobilized her economy so quickly as the other queens were so eager to, she knew such mass of conscripted soldiers would lead to mass unemployment and revolt against the monarchy. Soldiers were now employed on the fields, in community projects and engineers once building fortresses now were exceptional at building housing.

Where the MudWings saw solidarity in the simple aspects of life, the rest of Pyrrhia didn’t. From Burn’s military zeal to Ruby’s lack of leadership, from Glacier’s cryptic silence to Tsunami’s volatile anger, dark clouds of war haunted the continent, where wounds seemed to never heal.

First the Sky Queendom fell to civil war, then the Sand Queendom, Moorhen’s two allies were now dealing with internal issues and suspecting foreign activities, the Mud Queendom now stands alone, all things considered, though Moorhen would find an unlikely ally in the Sea Queendom, now ruled by one of the formerly DoD, Tsunami.

The day Tsunami seized power was the day of her descent to madness, defeating Coral amidst an invasion of Burn’s forces, she abandoned the defense of the Summer Palace, an orderly retreat only as such because they all swam in the same direction. Where Tsunami found abundant food to never starve, she also found a queendom mostly against her.

Coral’s web of lies spread further deep than the deepest abysm under the sea. Her propaganda machine mastered an early version of mass media and consumption, new drugs out of pufferfish venom were widely available to the populous and the SeaWing Council was all but conformative with Tsunami replacing their beloved and easily controllable ruler.

Queen Tsunami begun sweeping reforms immediately, she fired all members of the former council, and have yet to find suitable dragons for the vacant positions. She dismantled Coral’s powerful propaganda machine, and used when it suited her, of course, for she was an outsider in the eyes of the SeaWings, she needed approval to destroy Coral’s powerbase, and banned all the extraction of venom from pufferfish.

Her measures could indeed heal the SeaWings, if only they didn’t caused the collapse of the structure and chaos through the queendom. Unrest became common through the queendom, with several SeaWings joining the “Save Coral” movement against Tsunami, spearheaded by the very members of the council she fired, with many calling for her abdication and the coronation of Moray, daughter of Shark and devoted Coral lover to the cultist degree.

It was in moments like these that Tsunami wished Blister was there, at least she could have told her ways to win the minds and hearts of her subjects, but at least the military was overall on Tsunami’s side, under commander Piranha, the protegee of former commander Tempest, replaced by Shark during the late war because of her brutal treatment of soldiers, emotional abuse and waste of lives in pointless offensives, a great ally… for exceptionally terrible times.

Right now, Tsunami’s council is made out of Anemone, her 2 years old adviser, Auklet and her teacher, and Piranha, who Tsunami keeps a fixed stare at all times. Her advisers go from insanity to absurdity, from Anemone’s punishment of the protesters to Piranha recommending the mass execution of dissidents. Bizarrely enough, the first sane advise came from Auklet as she begun to speak her first words with the help of her teacher, “slow down fish, come here!”, slow down, this is what Tsunami needed, slow down her immediate results’ pursuit in favor of a slow burn through Coral’s machine.

While Tsunami rethinks her strategies, in the rainforest, princess Glory is also now an adviser of Queen Grandeur, which she helped to restore the throne after proving the kidnapping of RainWings by the NightWings and the disregard for life from the former queens. Glory now was at the difficult task of modernizing the Rainforest Queendom.

For starters, the RainWings had no scrolls, an overall practical method of writing Glory had learned from elsewhere in Pyrrhia. Instead, they carved their history in ancient tree barks, for destroying the local plant life for any purpose other than the fulfillment of one’s basic needs was a great crime against the nature’s spirits.

Such technologies as printing machines and paper were seem as a perversion of the rainforest, a tool against the very essence of itself and its inhabitants. Glory had failed to convince Grandeur and the RainWings to modernize their methods, now she sought different solutions, above all else, a way to connect the culture she just started learning about now, her own dragons, and new technologies that were required for the RainWings to not completely fall behind the rest of the world, as they once did.

A compromise was to be made. The RainWing writings in the tree bark should be standardized through the queendom, and a curriculum to be based from the Jade Academy that would be used in all the learning centers of the rainforest. Glory also had RainWing dragonets sent to the Jade Academy, they were more well versed in their culture than she was, thus they would be displayed to a vast range of technologies, methods and practices they would judge worth to bring back to the rainforest, Tamarin and Kinkajou especially, both had already brought their new discoveries, Tamarin’s love for horticulture would help build standardized practices in the queendom, while Kinkajou had a very beginner-friendly writing lesson to help fixate the oral practices of the RainWings.

Princess Glory’s affairs were so far successful, in contrast to her friend in the sea, she had to learn a lot about the ways of her subjects, realize her venom was not the all-problem solver she previously held it as such. Now, the gap between the rainforest and the rest of Pyrrhia was closing down, RainWing healers were now working at many healing centers and hospitals through Pyrrhia in the face of tremendous medical shortages, bringing back to them a diversity of the rainforest knowledge as well.

While the Rainforest, unaffected by the war begun spreading its message of cooperation and solidarity through Pyrrhia, their new neighbor, settling down in Renewal, at the Talon Peninsula, had issues of its own.

The New Night Queendom was so young yet faced so many ancient problems, Queen Battlewinner had abdicated the throne, in her place, Greatness assumed the throne and immediately political chaos followed.

Greatness’ daughter, Hope, had been caught in an affair with a RainWing prince, Jambu, whom they would have a dragonet, Peacemaker. Jambu however, was later discovered to be in a romantic relationship with Pineapple, assuming his feelings for another male and a commoner no less, Queen Grandeur had banished them for the diplomatic crisis they had created to a scale never seem in the rainforest for many generations.

While Jambu fled to Possibility with Pineapple and Peacemaker, Hope had returned to the Night Queendom, where Greatness assumed she fulfilled the demand to kill Peacemaker, for the NightWings would not repeat the mistakes from Darkstalker’s era once again.

Worse than that, the crisis had threatened the so abundant supplies coming from the rainforest, food, seeds and tools that had became the backbone of the forming society in Renewal, and an interruption of such supplies would prove the undoing of the yet very fragile nightwing society. While angry voices still called for a military action against the RainWings, the moment was all but lost the moment the NightWings and RainWings had made contact and a passage deal.
