Picture not mine

"Go spend time with Mesa" Sandy's papa had said "but Mesa's—" Sandy had started, but her mama had interrupted, "A nerd?" "I mean to put it nicely"  let's just say that sandy was currently flying away from their small island home to follow her older brother on one of his "discovery flights" to the neighboring islands. To put it lightly, Mesa was weird, he was not only an animus, but he was also slightly autistic, & incredibly shy 

Sandy looked behind her to see the small, gold & pale orange shapes of her parents. "You coming?" Mesa called from in front of her.

"Yeah, whatever" Sandy called to the orange & yellow dragon hovering a few feet ahead of her. Soon, they were flying quickly over the sea stacks sticking up out of the deep blue ocean. It was actually  pretty nice.

"So I was thinking of going to the sea stacks a couple miles north of the Summer Palace Ruins," stupid Mesa,"any thoughts?"

"Sounds good" Sandy put on her best "please believe me" smile.

"Good!" Phew.

"Woah, what's that!?"

"Ugh, what is it Mesa?"

"It looks like a skeleton!"

"REALY!?!?" Sandy excitedly scanned the ocean below them, finally, her blue eyes landed on a sun bleached pile of what looked like it used to form a dragon. Maybe this isn't too bad.

The siblings glided down to examine the bones, "It looks like it was a skywing! From maybe around... 13 years ago, the time of the War of Sandwing Succession!"

"But what was a skywing doing in the kingdom of the sea at that time? The only skywing I know of who has ever lived out here is Papa."

"Maybe she was killed in a battle?"

"But wouldn't there be other bodies?"

"Hmm, I don't know..."

"Can you bring her back to life with your animus magic?"

"I guess I could try..."
