Gosh, imagine this horrifying paradise being suddenly disrupted, the fleeing dragons of Pantala flying overseas only to find a comatose continent. Or even just Luna, swept away in her silk parachute, coming to land on a home not unlike her own. Where dragons are being controlled to be happy instead of sad, like Luna always tried to be. Or the scavengers of Phyrria, suddenly becoming the dominant species on the continent after all the dragons mysteriously disappeared. Darkstalker lying under Agate mountain where his dreams of an impossible future suddenly became a joyful present. Kinkajou, Orchid, and every Rainwing trapped in the Nightwing kingdom suddenly free from the endless torment, even as they’re once again stripped of their home and agency. Queen Glacier having happier dreams about Nightwings rather than the scary ones that her crown was enchanted to give her. Blister dropping on the spot after collecting the two Dragonbite vipers to give to her sister, the snakes feasting on her in her sleep. Foeslayer being left confused as the Icewings suddenly collapsed during the diamond trial, feeling herself follow suit even though they had yet to stab her. Thousands of dragons falling mid-flight, plummeting to the ground; their last dreams happy before they reached the bottom. Auklet doomed to never hatch, as there was nobody left to protect her. Fatespeaker believing her dream is of the future she so desperately wanted, feeling that it’s _finally_ coming true; being foretold to her after so many nights of waiting. Stonemover being free from his self-inflicted imprisonment, finding that despite everything he believed, he’s okay with being free, and flying to see Thorn again. Moonwatcher falling asleep in the forest waiting for her mother, dreaming that she was finally here to stay. Pyrite having a warped mishmash of a dream of two realities. One filled with ice and snow, but still feeling warm on the inside. Chameleon’s scales suddenly changing colour as he dreamed, being forced to sleep and fully activate his scales. Wren left begging for Sky to wake up after getting some supplies from Undauntable, coming back to find him asleep with a snail perched happily on his nose. Her amusement turning to fear when he didn’t wake up the following morning. The dragons of Phyrria slowly succumbing to hunger and thirst. Their bodies becoming stiff and immobile as they’re left to the elements. Flower being left terrified and alone in the Sandwing Kingdom after Smolder suddenly wouldn’t wake up anymore; left to wonder about the strange structure that seemed to appear in the Sandwing kingdom overnight, and the tawny-gold dragonet who watched the last survivors with empty eyes from the throne. It’s such a horrifying dystopia with room for so much. The consequences left when the world is unknowingly subjected to living under an abused child’s perception of happiness. Incredible job on this one

Sunny being an animus would be so cool! Thank you for doing this!

[@wyvolf]

God damn I did not expect that, Sunny being an animus herself would have made sense (or even a dragonet of hers in future being one). But what a sad ending and for such a large spell it would make sunny snap at least not go insane but rather become delusional in this fantasy she created and it just pains to even imagine as her friends age and everywhere else across Pyrrhia (unsure if it’ll extend to Pantala) she’d be effectively killing off an entire population regardless of tribe. Unless the effects of this spell would keep them young and alive, comparison being the Miasma from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, where in the quest “Waking Nightmare” the Miasma (a gas) put those who it affected asleep, perfectly preserved and still alive even if put in a stasis. But who knows. It would be interesting for one of the DoD members to accidentally exit paradise and just suddenly realise the reality of what happened or even Pantalan dragons arriving and finding out it’s a land of sleeping individuals. Which maybe can be woken up. Who knows, it would have set up an interesting arc and story. For Sunny despite being one of the most benevolent being a effectively a villain out of something so selfish. Maybe it’s just the tism making this bigger but in general this is such an interesting plot, what if and general story scenario. 10/10 Cypress.

[@garrettbourez8]

Write that down!

[@shadowstar37]

Well if we go by that then the breath of evil would mind control all but one dragon ( hint hint) and it would be up to him to save everyone

[@wyvolf]

@@shadowstar37 adding the Breath of Evil may be a bit messy, and if anything the escaped Pantala dragons would be refugees that landed on Pyrrhia that were trying to escape a society that was genuinely evil. Of course the NightWings lived on a remote island, it was a several hour if not a days or so flight from mainland. So maybe when they finally invade the forest everyones asleep. And maybe one nightwing seeks to fix it. I’m just spitballing potential ideas since this is a plot I genuinely enjoy and would love to make into an RP.

[@shadowstar37]

@@wyvolf I'm saying that darkstarker could wake up because he's already under a different Animus spell and adding the breath of evil is mostly due to everyone in arc 2 being alseep along with those in arc 1

[@timmy6890]

Man little does Sunny know she just made every Dragon on Pyhrria go extinct since the dragons are asleep that means they wouldn’t be able to eat so they’ll just slowly starve or get killed by “Scavengers”. However it does fulfill the whole “Everyone Happy” thing. It’d be cool to see this from another POV a lone dragon who didn’t get enchanted or how the Scavengers just slowly re-took over the Continent.

Well there brain will kill them since it is not being used so it will shut down killing the dragon

[@maxbennett5412]

[@General_Belu]

“A Utopia can be a Dystopia, a Dystopia can’t be a Utopia.” Wait, so will dragons go extinct? I am asking because they won’t be able to have offspring because they are stuck in a dream like eternity, well… Once scavengers realize, “Where have all the dragons gone? Then several centuries later, in a era like ours, maybe 1950s - 2010s, an archeologists discovers several “stone-ified” dragon corpses, mudwings, because that’s what the ground does to a living being, turn them into fossils, as we all know and well…

This is so wholesome at the beginning, but then it turns sad/scary/oh my lord sunny is evil now.

[Instead of a rainwing egg, Webs [somehow] got an icewing egg] What if Jerboa [The second? Third? I don’t remember] didn’t get rid of animus magic?

I’ve only watched this What If series off and on, but this is definitely my favorite story. It’s so screwed up and I love it, and much less edgy than some of the many, many ways the Dragonets of Destiny could fall apart. It makes perfect sense for Sunny’s personality that her desire for everyone to just *stop fighting* would corrupt her to the point of putting the entire world into the Matrix. I wonder what the scavengers would think, seeing buzzing places like the SkyWing kingdom just fall into total silence and dragons mostly disappear from the sky. Would they rise in power again? Discover the slumbering dragons and kill them all? Just make sure Sunny doesn’t discover them and put a spell on them, too 🥴

(so scarlet found glory on her own as an egg in the sky kingdom, and kestrel brought her own egg, but it was still sky and peril?) -what if Qibli accepted Darkstalker's offer? -What if ClearSight and Darkstalker had Dragonets? -What if Darkstalker became king(weather through murder or good reasons can be up to you :] ) -What if Darkstalker used to take dragonets and fly off with them to a new Nightwing kingdom so that if his plan to attack the queen failed he could still lead? (meaning many dragonets went missing due to this, and potentially there was another Nightwing kingdom that had powers? and worshiped Darkstalker maybe? (this one was inspired by a M.A.P I saw a long time ago although I don't remember the name or who it was posted by) (And yes I know I’ve re-commented this probably more that I should-) (also now this has got me thinking of an au where sunny is an animus and just like- as her soul becomes more and more corrupt she slowly becomes queen of all tribes, maybe Darkstalker could wake up and see this and become her ally? only for her to kill him in the end using his own love against him? who knows ;) edit: What if sunny gave in to the urges of the Eye of Onyx and made herself queen?

A perfect utopia in one's eyes is a dystopia in another's. Darkstalker would've been proud, except for the fact that he counts as a dragon in Phyria, so his sleep is extended from 2,000 years to forever. Wonder what Sunny (Who would probably curse herself and the other DoD with immortality) would think when while they're getting huge, Jade Mountain starts to crack and crumble, revealing Darkstalker. Would she wake him and invite him to her "utopia?" (Which I think Darkstalker would agree to describe it as a Utopia, maybe making a few changes with his own magic) Or would she just let him sleep in peace?

I want to imagine: one of the other animus dragons, in their wonderful cocoon of happiness, said something perfect in their dream. A word to break the spell on them, and they wake up. They find the world has crumbled. Dragons are... Nonexistent. Everyone has become a hill, a tree, No longer the Seven Kingdoms and tribes there once were. The palaces are falling apart, livestock, crops, have either bred into or been taken over by the wild. Pyhrria is... Gone. (I'm out of ideas, please continue this! I so want to see this AU made, and brought to life, maybe from my starter!)

I feel like this perfectly describes how Sunny would use it!

[@lightofthefandoms6496]

She could’ve been another Darkstalker!

OOooO NEW WHAT IF YAYAY

[@Jade_Does_Riding]

I don't know if you take suggestions on "what if" videos but if you do I had a cool idea for one. What if Glory left, in the first book(not graphic novel) after they leave the Sky Palace and go to the river Glory goes invisible and acts like she leaves to see if Clay really cared. But what id she actually did leave and Tsunami couldn't tell her friends that she knew that Glory was going to leave.

That’s actually quite clever, I bet no one else has ever thought about that :D I like the idea of it

[@Jade_Does_Riding]

@@i_once_was_chloe Thanks!

[@rustyshackleford330]

This was really interesting!❤❤❤❤❤

[@TheIslandgirly]

Oh god thats scary, how she doesnt even know she has corrupted, and how shes also affecting the dragons around her

[@Unazaki]

Oh god this is a literal case of “the road to hell is paved with good intentions”. This reminds me of the horrific intentions of the final boss of Final Fantasy XIII-3, where the creator of the world sought to create happiness for everyone by eliminating all sources unhappiness and have everyone in what was essentially a dream world. Outstanding writing here in this episode!

Yeesh...😢 awesome work! Very sad but great work!

[@SleepDeprived-2002]

Omg, thank you for your efforts I love this series sooooo much!😊

[@erynnmurphy2996]

Actually, animus dragons can enchant other dragons and this has been seen as early as arc 1. Remember in Burn's Weirdling Tower, there was a stuffed MudWing born with no talons or teeth? Smolder suggested that the egg was cursed by animus magic. I'm surprised people don't notice this. And how can we forget what Darkstalker did to Fierceteeth. Using his magic to try and bring Clearsight back, and he nearly succeeded in the resurrection before Clearsight snapped at him about what he had done, he froze her and just gave up. Can you imagine the amount of mental damage and trauma that was for Fierceteeth? And then there's Jerboa, a dragon who literally fixed her daughter to be what she wanted. Enchanting dragons is possible, these actions and characters prove it.

Wow this was like, worse than a lot of what some ‘evil’ animus dragons did! Wow, and this is *Sunny* . I guess this just shows how dangerous animus powers are… wow. Kind of…. Horrifying but interesting all at once.

[@Nyx_Moonz]

PLEASE make a part two of this! I think eventually Sunny would realise what she did was wrong, and turn her spells around, and fix the world the proper way. With her friends.

[@GigiH-u3g]

This is a perfect “ evil au “ sunny becomes manipulative and after every thing she was emotionless and leaving every other tribe to starve to death
