[@Sapphire_wolvesYT]

That sounds interesting

[@TheGirlObsessedWithDragonEggs]

oh. YES

[@Delayed_Ren]

That sounds interesting but I wonder how it could happen 🤔 originally web was on a time crunch to get an egg any egg really so he stole one from the rain wings, maybe he finds the ice wing egg abandoned near the mountain cave?

[@Eeveekid012]

It would make sense but who knows what Cyprus would do

[@pyronuke4768]

That is really interesting, considering the Nightwing/Icewing feud was still going pretty strong at that point. It's pretty obvious why the Rainwings were left out of the prophecy, and the Icewing's exclusion feels like it was deliberately done out of spite. So when Morrowseer comes by to check on them in Book 1 and sees an Icewing he's gonna have a bigger reaction to it than with Glory. I LOVE IT!!

[@avacornthelastponybender8583]

If he's somehow NOT angry about Clearsight putting him to sleep for 10 years, just wait until he gets to Pantala & sees she left him for a bug😨

[@WOF.Dragons.]

[@arhiannabackus5630]

Lol

[@pyronuke4768]

To be honest, I feel like once Foeslayer was captured that really was the point of no return for Darkstalker's sanity slippage. She really was the only person who could actually get through to him, something even Clearsight couldn't do by the end.

[@Victoria-_]

[@Xx_GeodeBlink_xX]

Here’s some good What If ideas. People please like this so Cyprus sees it. Also give me some more ideas: What if the second arc Dragonets were the DoDs? What if Winter had Qibli’s personality and Moon went for him? What if the DoD’s got caught and taken to the Mud Kingdom instead of the Sky Palace? What if icicle and Winter switched roles and personalities? What is Sora’s bomb didn’t go off? What if Crane never died? What did you think? 😉

[@c.stargazer]

Another idea, what if when Darkstaker had hatched, he used his magic to make Whiteout's egg hatch on the brightest night as well

[@jmc9486]

⁠omg and when he goes on a rampage he convinces whiteout omg I love it

[@jmc9486]

That’d be some cool stuff, qibli as sunny, winter as glory, kinkajou as glory as well

[@Euchloe_Lotta]

I’m so glad you’re back, Cyprus! It was such a great surprise to see that you posted. This is a genius idea, and it seems like a better solution, if Darkstalker could get over his wish to rule the world, haha. I think an entire story on this would turn out AMAZING

[@Robin_the_skywing_is_cool]

oh my gwash hello I know you

[@CarolineJoyAmico]

Me: Your voice sounds different. Cyprus: yes, I got a new microphone

[@GundamKType]

I love this! Darkstalker is my favorite character, and I love him, and I so badly want see a good version of Darkstalker and one that redeems himself. And I ship Darkstalker and Clearsight, so seeing them get together would be great. A lot of people seemed to think that I believe Darkstalker was perfect but I know he was flawed and that he did a lot of things wrong but I genuinely believe that at the core of who Darkstalker was he genuinely just wanted the people he cared about to be happy and for his tribe to be safe. That's why I can't really say he's evil. He was misguided and abused, and even the people he loved didn't support him in healthy ways. Rather than trying to convince him to achieve his desires and a healthy or positive way, they just told him he was wrong for wanting what he did. Maybe he could fall in love with a reincarnation of Clearsight after he's redeemed himself for what he's done. I can't wait to see where you take this afterward. Maybe you could make a what if Darkstalker never turned into a villain.

[@Sedulous32072]

Yeah, I hate people who just hate Darkstalker without thinking about why he did it. Like, if you're gonna hate him, at least look into the reasons first instead of acting emotionally when anyone with a differing opinion from you voices said opinion. EDIT: When I say I hate them, I don't actually mean hating the people, I just mean hating how they act.

[@starstorm1267]

I have to disagree on the whole “the people who loved him didn’t support him and try to convince him to achieve his goals in healthy ways”. I strongly believe there was no “healthy” way to achieve his goal of becoming king. After Foeslayer was captured, Darkstalker was pretty much hellbent on getting vengeance on the IceWings, whatever that may take for him (ex: causing an entire genocide on them). And after Queen Vigilance’s betrayal, he was also dead set on wanting to murder her and steal the throne for himself, and drag whoever he wants along with his future plans whether they wanted it or not. Darkstalker never took into consideration of how his goals would negatively affect those he loved, believing that they were best for them and they would “understand that eventually”. Which is why I don’t really like him as a character, and believe those close to him had every right to object against him and his plans.

[@gustaveliasson5395]

​​@@starstorm1267 Except Darkstalker didn't decide to make Darkstalker king; Vigilance did. Vigilance unwittingly attempted to end her own life. She sent the assassin. When the assassin arrived, Darkstalker was *surprised*, surprised and furious. Yes, he'd had visions of himself wearing the crown, he knew he was going to become king, but clearly, he didn't know *how* that was going to happen, or why. And I can't recall it ever being one of Darkstalker's "goals" to become king; he saw visions of the most likely futures, and in many of those, he was a king. A goal is something you actively work towards because it's not just going to happen on its own. In Darkstalker's case, it very much *was* something that was going to happen all on its own, because Allknowing was a hack. Allknowing prompted Vigilance to send the assassin. If Allknowing hadn't done that, and instead just kept her mouth shut, the assassin wouldn't have been sent. Allknowing and Vigilance fired the first shot, and they were always going to fire the first shot. That's why Darkstalker kept seeing visions of himself as a king; because Allknowing and Vigilance were going to send an assassin to kill him, and their betrayal would in turn cause him to retaliate and claim the throne for himself.

[@ENZO-AND-MEADOW]

ideas: what if there was an ice wing in the prophecy. what if sunny could read minds and see the future what if indigo died what if Foslayer never took off the earing what if the night wings stayed in the kingdom what if the jade mountain collapsed like in moons visions? what if wasp was good? what if dark Stalker took over pyraiha (I definitely spelt it wrong) this is amazing Cyprus I hope you had a great break. ❤

Moons, the sheer mounting sense of dread I had throughout this whole episode. Unresolved by the end, as well. Poor Clearsight; I'm so, so glad she was able to heal better in the version we are more familiar with. Because she really didn't have much to return to other than what she had fled from...

[@ItzAlex27]

Glad you’re back. Also I love your art. I have a bit of What If ideas if you wanna consider them. (These are only gonna be from like books 1-7 since those are the only ones I’ve finished) What If Ideas: What if Moon was with Winter instead of Qibli What if Qibli was with Winter What if Glory was an Icewing What if Blister survived instead of Blaze What if Carnelian survived the explosion What if Glory didn’t shoot Scarlet with her venom What if Tsunami didn’t kill Gill What if Starflight didn’t go blind Hope you consider these ideas!

[@XToeMark]

first one: yeah that makes sense second one: ayo

[@GoofyiiDoodler.]

I would imagine that nightwings would rule alongside the hivewings until Queen Wasp overthrows them and banishes them to the northern west part of pantala or are sent into dungeons to work with the flamesilks. Or Darkstalker would slowly grow jealous of Sunstreak and attempt to kill him and/or Clearsights dragonets as he spirals into madness over jealousy and Clearsight eventually has to flee Pantala for help from Phyrria. Glad your break went well love your videos❤

[@NotCharwie]

Gorgeous! Happy to have you back Cyprus! 💙

[@clearsight_wof]

YES YES YES I’ve been waiting for a What If like this! Slay Cyprus! Also AMAZING art as always

[@oakenshadow6763]

Darksalking living on Pentalla is facinating. In a good AU he would enchant all dragons to be imune to the Breath of Evil taking over their mind. Or, in a dark AU, he uses it instead to take over. Only his Animus magic makes the change perfect.

[@seankent5842]

[@GundamKType]

I can't wait to see the end scene of this. But I hope Darkstalker stays good in this one and gets to help him with a happy life with his love. And I recently It came up with a similar idea at work whose I convinced his darkstone could to go with her to Pantala shortly after meeting Fathom. The two of them get to live a happy life together on the new continent. Clearsight and Darkstalker have their dragonets together who, in turn, create hivewings. I've planned to get some hard commissions and make a story out of this because this would affect all three arcs in big ways.

[@michellelopez2170]

I feel so bad for Cleasight. This poor woman was entirely alone, went back to her toxic ex, and would likely be manipulated due to her bad mental state. Sunstreak too, imagine your wife leaving to who knows where and coming back with a new husband, despite you already having a family with her. I really want to see his reaction. #JusticeforSunstreak

What if Luna or Blue was not a flamesilk 3 what if Icicle became Queen of the ice wings 4. What if tsunami battles Coral for the throne 5. What if Fathom went to Pantala instead of clearsite

[@TheMagicalSprite]

[@noptishachaijaroonrat8382]

[@Tempest_Hearted]

It's been a while since I've visited the WoF community, but it feels SO good to see a what if like this! Honestly, I think there are three or so possibilities that can stem from this. Since DarkStalker's motive for becoming king was for a "better future" I don't think he'd try being king of the Pantalans because he has what he wants: A happy future for him and ClearSight (unless some petty queen decides to use him, then idk. I think he'd just- shoo her off or something). However! Here's some ideas that I think could've happened: 1. This one's probably the most far fetched, but what if he lets go of his immortality? What I mean is, what if ClearSight convinces him to let go of his invulnerability so they can grow old and die together? Further down the line, they could be regarded as the lover deities. 2. They both stay immortal. It's a bit of a bumpier road, but they stay immortal, acting like ancient protectors of their descendants. There is a possibility that everything goes well, but there's also a chance that one of them will get restless. DarkStalker could become bored and try to toy with Pantala, and ClearSight could snap under the pressure of being constantly demanded to see the future (which could cause DarkStalker to snap at the Pantalans, assuming he doesn't change. Though, I do think over a millennia of living, he would change at least some. And before you comment he didn't change in the books, please remember he was asleep. It's like expecting an entire character arch to happen after a long nap.) 3. DarkStalker stays immortal without ClearSight. This I think can go into three possibilities: 3a. He goes into a depression and goes into hiding, becoming a mere legend as he sulks for eternity. 3b. He goes mad, trying to bring back ClearSight in a fit of grief. 3c. He learns to move on, maybe finding another mate. However, I think this one would most likely tie in before or after the other two, either as a story about handling grief or a tragedy where he realizes he can never find another dragon like Clearsight and that he's now forever alone. Anyways, those are just some ideas. If you read this far, thank you! I know it was long so I appreciate whoever took the time to read it! Also, before you comment, please take with a grain of salt that I wrote this thirty minutes after waking up, mildly dehydrated with a very slight headache. Thank you for reading! (Edit: fixed some formatting)

[@Gingerale434]

What if Glory lost the rainwing contest to be queen? What if Deathbringer killed one of the DoD and never fell in love with Glory? What if the nightwings never left their home and never lost their powers? What if the scavengers never killed Queen Oasis?? Anyways thats it for now!! I LOVE YOUR ART!

[@gustaveliasson5395]

I'm pretty sure that leafspeak is some sort of magic, and after having his own magic used against him to put him to sleep, Darkstalker is probably going to be utterly paranoid. So by the time they get to the BoE, Darky will mostlikeky already have made himself immune to literally all magic except spells he himself cast. Hell, he might invent animus programming as a means of automatically activating or de-activaring offensive and defensive spells according to the situation he's in, so that he'll never be caught off-guard ever again. In other words, Cottonmouth is probably going to get eaten, and not in the "haha, the plant is inside you, you're now my puppet"-kind of way, but in the old-school "crippled human vs eldritch paranoid scizophrenic house-sized obligate carnivore "-way. On the plus side, Freedom just might get a second chance at life if Darkstalker can restore her body. I think she deserves that.
