Important Notes

• New Horizons takes place 5070 years after the Scorching.
• In this universe, there is no magic on either of the continents. As a result, animus powers, NightWing powers, and leafspeak do not exist.
• Due to this, Clearsight never discovered Pantala. Additionally, Dalkstalker's lack of powers meant that the NightWings never fled their original kingdom and still reside there.
• BeetleWings did not exist in this universe; the SilkWings and HiveWings already existed as separate tribes.
• Without Clearsight's legacy, the Tree Wars did not occur, although the HiveWings and LeafWings have had a long history of territorial disputes.
• The War of SandWing Succession did occur, although the NightWings were allied with Burn and the MudWings were allied with Blister.
• Without the Dragonet Prophecy, the war ran its natural course, ending in 5011 A.S. with Burn taking her place as the SandWing queen. An uneasy peace followed soon afterwards.
• In 5023 A.S., Onyx challenged her aunt for the throne and won. She went on to have one daughter, Scarab, who ascended the throne in 5050 A.S. at the age of 15.
• Pyrrhia rediscovered its sister continent in 5055 A.S., 15 years before the events of the fic.
• The most common method of transportation between the continents is by boat. Many Pantalans have immigrated to Pyrrhia, and vice versa.
• Hybrids have become more commonplace on Pyrrhia, although they are still stigmatized.
• Possibility now exists as an independent city-state governed by Lady Sun and her council. It’s transformed into a bustling center of commerce and the arts, and it’s home to dragons from nearly every tribe.
• Most dragonets in Possibility attend Arroyo Academy, a public school named after its founder, the SandWing scholar Arroyo.

Are NightWing names more centered around the night/darkness/stars instead of related to their abilities in this universe? because the lack of NightWing powers make names like Morrowseer, Fatespeaker, etc. kind of invalid in my opinion

ah, okay. thanks!

Technology

• Pyrrhian technology has evolved significantly ever since the days of the Great War.
• The usage of glass has been popularized not only for practical purposes, but for artwork as well.
• Gunpowder (or firepowder, as it's referred to) has been invented and utilized to an extent. It's most commonly used in weaponry (cannons) and in fireworks.
• Compasses have been invented and are now especially useful for navigation and exploration.
• Telescopes now exist on Pyrrhia, although it's quite difficult for any normal dragon to get their talons on one. As such, usually only academies and observatories have access to them.
• Plumbing systems exist in most of Pyrrhia's major cities; however, only wealthy dragons can afford to have them installed in their homes.
• After the rediscovery of Pantala, most of Pyrrhia has begun to transition into printing books rather than scrolls.
