some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.

I've talked about it a couple times with how Arctic's death isn't as descriptively gorey as one may lead you to believe. With how the fandom talks about it, you'd think that Tui just went fully creepypasta levels of describing it. Just violent detail that goes on and on for pages and–

Yeah. Yeah that's it. 'Messy' is the closest we get to anything.

I can see the disappointment. It's a horrifying scene on its own (with Darkstalker forcing his father to disembowl himself), but it should be a bit more descriptive, right?

Eh. I'm quite fine with it being this way. For starters, you all seem to forget this is a kids series. Funny how I'm bringing this up when I'm talking about the more disturbing death in the series, but it's true. The series gets dark, but at the end of the day it's for children. Tui can't just do that. Scholastic won't let her (and I'm pretty sure she doesn't have the heart to write it and present it to millions of children to see).

Secondly (and the much more fascinating reason to my writer brain) is how it's reflective of Darkstalker's mindset. See that? Darkstalker reflects on how killing his father, this figure that he blames literally everything wrong in his life for, wasn't rewarding to kill. He feels empty. It feels lifeless.

But why? He should be happy, right? This is all he ever could've wanted. He's feared by the NightWings and has finally killed the dragon whose done nothing but hurt others.

Yet, it's a meaningless death to him. He went in expecting that this would solve everything, only to see that it brings no life or joy to him.

Now, he stands on the stage. The crowd has ran off, horrified at the events that have transpired in their very own kingdom. Clearsight has abandoned him and Whiteout, his very own sister, loudly sobs behind him, scared and traumatized. Before him is his father, Arctic. His organs strewn out onto the stage, icy blue blood pooling out and staining his perfect white scales. There is nothing but a look of horror etched into his lifeless eyes.

All that's left in Darkstalker is nothing. Not even a flicker of satisfaction or joy. This was all in vain. A lonely king, his crown earned through lies, manipulation and selfish bloodlust.

nightwing time baby!! i wanted to expand on the moon magic system a bit.

i hc that different moons grant different powers. oracle is future sight, and perception is mind reading. i'm not sure about imperial? maybe either-or, or something different like increased intelligence.

super moons and micro moons make the power much stronger or weaker, respectively. so clearsight, for example, would have been born during oracle's super moon.

blood moons canonically grant either the ability to predict natural disasters or project thoughts.

blue moons let you see into the past or read the minds of animals, depending on the moon.

it would be extremely rare, but being born under a solar eclipse would give the power to change the future or change someone's thoughts. this has only been documented twice in history, shortly after the scorching, and the events were so horrific that all records were destroyed and all eggs set to hatch during an eclipse are destroyed.

these are all my headcanons, feel free to use these in your own work, and lmk some of your own ideas!
