How I Would Rewrite the 3rd Arc 

I think it would also be nice to add that rather than meeting Luna in the epilogue at the end of the second arc, Moon has a vision of pantala, or at least the silk wings, and maybe in the new epilogue of arc three we see Moon and her friends arrive on pantala to set up a theoretical 4th arc about the two continents reconnecting

"I...HATE the breath of evil plotline...'' Me: Yes. good. continue...

give the breath of evil some breath mints ong

Bumblebee saying "snudoo" carried the arc

I now dub this the Cyprus Pantala AU and I will be writing with it because it’s awesome!

From what I remember, we are told that the Chrysalis in Jewel Hive goes around like the Scooby-Doo gang because of how "nice" Lady Jewel is.. But that in Bloodworm Hive the Chrysalis is, so we are told, more of an actual resistance movement that helps carry out a terrorist attack. So, perhaps, an alternate book 14 could be from the perspective of a member of the Bloodworm Hive Chrysalis. Both showing the abuse they get, and the desperate methods they resort to to resist. As a book from the perspective of dragonets, obviously this would mean sending child soldiers into battle. It can show the commencement of the burning. The protagonist could see a troop of Hivewings try to salvage the wingless Silkwing dragonets as the structure falls apart and, reluctantly, stops fighting to help with that... So when it comes to negotiating between the three tribes to stop Wasp, the first hurdle is to make sure the Silkwings from the different hives don't start fighting each other. Just think, one of them seeing the Treehopper / Tau relationship and having absolutely the worst reaction. Because unlike how the two Leafwing factions that reluctantly tolerate each other, the Silkwings could be outright violent. Edit: Also, if you're going to bring back the flamesilks, you need to make Admiral want to simp for Wasp and stay there as everyone else agrees to leave. Seriously, WTF is wrong with that guy!?

UHHHH THIS ARTWORK IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!! THIS IS MY FAVOURITE ART YOU'VE EVER MADE YET!!

I'd also like to say if I would write an arc 4 it would focus on the rebuilding of pantala (this is going off the original story) and would focus on fact that the Hivewings were basical Germany during ww2 and extemist groups would try to renestate Wasp to the throne, and Phirryia being the western powers would have to act as a peace keeping force there and deal with the problems in thier own kingdom.

Great video Cyprus! This is wayyy better than the arc 3 we got, and I think most of us hope that arc 4 will have more of a arc 2 flavor. Anyways, great art and great chat!

Oooo, this’ll be interesting! I liked how the third arc started off, but i feel like it went downhill after the poison jungle, lol😂

for me, i liked the whole “breath of evil had its own consciousness and mind”. it held the faint edges of a native species fighting against an invasive species, and failing, then slowly evolving to take back its original environment. back during the waiting-for-book-fourteen-to-release era, i had the idea of the breath of evil puppeteering a dragon corpse to act as a “i’m one of you, trust me” kind of thing. i sorta want to go back and try to flesh it out more as an alternative story line, but im not sure how

Petition to let Cyprus rewrite Wings of Fire officially:

I think Cricket having a character arc similar to that of Judy from Zootopia is a great idea

Honestly I love both plotlines. A look into Hazel's mind would have been pretty interesting, and to have Luna's fiery personality back would be amazing. And Wasp remaining the villain with no evil plant would be great.

One of my favorite videos you’ve ever made!!!!!!! I love this idea, and although I love the writing of book 14 by itself, I do agree that it stand out at lot, this is such a beautiful idea!!

Very sudden beginning! 😂

Love your art! keep up the good work! tysm for inspring my art! and who would you consider your favorite character ?

Who else is here in the first 10 mins👇👇👇

I would have loved to read this plot line so much more than tui’s. I do adore book 14, but it most definitely falls closer to a legend than a main series book. I hope arc 4 brings back the passion of the first 2 arcs!

Something I think arc 3 could have done better: GIVE US WASP HIVE CHRYSALYS

honestly when I first read this arc I didn't think much about it and enjoyed it a lot, but thank you so much for this video I love your interpretation so much more and now I can think a lot more critically about it and I realize all that was missing. I did like hearing about the history of the humans of Pantala and Pyrrhia in the original books, but don't think it had to be the main point and the breath of evil and cottonmouth and lizard really was just a stretch and didn't make sense. I would LOVE to see the full version of your books they would be amazing!! (hint hint) ALSO CAN I JUST SAY THE ART 🤯🤯 you continue to inspire me so much and THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL ILY

3 mins ago wow I love your content keep up the good work Cyprus don’t give up your art has massively inspired me to draw my own dragons thank you!

I didn't love Arc 3... But i might have with a few changes similar to this! Great job. I would miss the scavenger reveal and seeing Pyrrhia, but from a story standpoint, I'm inclined to agree a few changes would have been nice

Maybe Lizard/Freedom could still be in this rewrite of arc 3 but as a hybrid baby between a hive wing, a silk wing and a leaf wing as a representation of the freedom and union the pantelan tribes now share.

I freaking agree!

I do believe you are right. On all of it, actually. Especially on the Cricket personality. I would have loved seeing her realize Hivewings might not be all that great and mighty as she grew up learning. Book 14 (like you said) was completely random. It was a good read; it was interesting. But did not quite work. Finally, I would have LOVED a Hazel book. That would have been great. You were right again about the last book. Lunas Pov did not quite feel like a great last book. I loved Dusky (he's a good target for potential future books), but overall the last few books were not the best. This was a great video. Have a Blessed week Cyprus. Hope you're doing well! :) 🫶🏼

Day 5 of asking Cyprus to make a what if Qibli accepted Darkstalkers offer! :3

the plant had no brain. a scavenger did

how you started the video LOL i agree but do like 3rd arc tbh i find it still quite good

Ark 3 ruined ALL my favourite characters... Moonwatcher acted out of character and got captured in the stupidest way because Tui couldn't figure out how to incorporate her powers, plus she and Tsunami have night vision which they could've used... Tsunami was rendered useless after one fight... Qibli's smarts was barely used properly for planning and i would have loved to have seen him give Moonwatcher his Skyfire to help her cope with the thousands of minds she is suddenly connecting too... plus Sky's personality in this is just anoying.... i love him but not THIS him... we have a rainwing, so use their invisibility to scout, mudwings can hold their breath for up to an hour, SO USE IT! What happened to the prophecy saying : "Open your hearts, your minds, your wings, to the dragons who flee from the hive. Face a great evil, with talons united, or non of tne tribes with survive." If the only way for them to save everyone would be to use ALL of their unique traits! That is what should have happened! Sorry for the rant. 😅

I have a question how does the prohcecy play into your version of the story?

Love this art piece so much! I feel like you really captured the friendly, playful, yet serious relationship of the arc three main characters! I also really enjoyed listening to your insights regarding a such a controversial and flawed plot. I look forward to you next video!

First also OMG I agree

Pretty Art :D And I like how you rewrote the 3rd arc :) really interesting!

I can't watch this cuz I'm only on book 12 nooooo 😭

I think Hazel being a more promident character is a good idea.

I feel like Tui had to include the trip to pyrrhia to fulfill the prophecy and tie in the idea that not one tribe is better or worse than the others like the pantalan dragons think, she had to include the pyrrhian dragons to show them that you need everyone to work together to solve this problem and that our differences make us stronger together I feel like that was a big message in this arc.

l feel the same about arc 3. I have not read it but my sis has and she told me about it. 🐲

I really enjoyed this, but if you were to write it I would enjoy it if you somehow included Lizard/Freedom cause I think her character had real potential, maybe as a hybrid prisoner instead of a half-dead 5000-year-old dragonet, anyways on the whole amazing job and I love your writing and drawings, especially what ifs!

I mean, I love your version so much, BUT, I think I like arc three as it is a TINY bit more- Minor spoilers for third arc I feel like arc three was mostly just a whole lot of almosts. Blue ALMOST gets caught by HiveWing guards, Cricket ALMOST gets added to the Hive-mind by Wasp, Blue and Luna ALMOST couldn't escape the flamesilk cavern, ect. Probably the worst that happens is just the breath of evil gets Swordtail and Blue, but nothing else really bad overall, and I feel like the tension was a bit up and down. Still, I loved the introduction of new points of view, especially regarding all of the Pantalan tribes views of each other, and how they slowly change once they all learn more about each other, so in my opinion, it was still a great arc.

Yes 3rd Arc of Wings of Fire and agreed and also nice video Cyprus 👍🌟

I personally don’t agree with Cyprus but I do think the second arc was the best

We should try making Wasp the POV for a book! It would be... Interesting 😈

Best line of the day- OF this video "I...HATE.. the breath of evil plotline...'' lol i agree with book 11-13. And Yes Book14 felt like a Legends book or a different focus from the pantala (kinda like we are taking a break from the Arc 3), i had to stop reading and didn't read book 15 in fears it may ruin the "What it could be" for arc 3. and how you talk about how Arc 3 should be, Yes I would be down to hear a full detail write :D and see the drawn pictures of the scene, by your hands or by the fans Love your work Cyprus and, the artwork you did is cute, a real moment to show the fighting is over and peace and joy can enter on Pantala once again. Does leave me question what is by the mountains or how Hawkthorn got turn (could be manipulation or Hawkthorn had enough and made something to bend to Wasp will)

This rewrite is amazing! I loved the plot of the story.. besides the point where they revealed the breath of evil as sentient. Your rewrite was really interesting, and it would be cool to see someone tackle it as a fic, or something! :) Maybe to keep the Phyrria arc (while still maintaining every other change you made), a party of earlier-arc protagonists (like Moon, Quibli, etc) could make their way over in the second book, because Moon had a prophecy about Wasp and the situation in Pantala, or the Seawings find the continent in a similar way to canon. They’d meet the main squad of this arc, get the details of Wasp and the Breath, and stick around for a bit to help. Then, when Wasp starts winning and the lowest-low is about to be reached, instead of bringing the entire still-uncontrolled population of Pantala, they could send a smaller group of individuals, maybe the injured or younger dragonets, who couldn’t help with the effort and would only be at risk. One or two of the original Phyrrian group could lead them back, with others staying behind. This would allow Quibli to be his glorious self, the inter-continent relationship to be established, and for Snowfall to have her arc with dismantling the Icewings caste system, without the negative consequences. It could maintain the flow of the plot, leaving the main group on Pantala to lead the resistance, like you said, while also adding stress and tension among the fleeing dragons. Maybe there’s some sickness going around, or the predominantly younger refugees have no way of contacting home. Doing both plots (your rewrite’s and a modified canon’s) could solve the issues you brought up, AND explore multiple darker subjects/themes at the same time, without wrecking the pacing. Maybe Bumblebee went to Pyrrhia, how would the separation with Cricket play out? How would the Pantalans react to the dragon who looks just like their Prophet (Moon)? All fun ideas to work with. I REALLY hope this doesn’t sound critical, I adored both the original canon and your rewrite, which inspired this rant. This is just intended to be an idea, and I hope it comes across like that! (If it comes across as condescending on accident, I can fix it :3) Arc three was good, but it has a LOT of issues, and your rework is a really interesting and amazing way to look at it! Thank you for taking the time to make this video, and I hope you have a good day! Edit: I accidentally struck-through "like you said" which was an accident, so I fixed it! Sorry!

I absolutely ADORE arc 3, but your version is SO MUCH BETTER- My opinion on the cannon plot: Book 11: Alright, could've been better, but still good. I'm just really happy that we were introduced to new tribes! Book 12: Absolutely love it! But again, could've been better... I just like how Bumblebee exists there, and also how we finally found out part of how Wasp controls the HiveWings- Cricket is one of my favorite protagonists tho :D Book 13: SUNLOW>>>>> And I loved how we finally got to see how the LeafWings had been living all those years, from the divided tribe to the dangers of the poison jungle. Also, Bumblebee>>>> Book 14: Probably my least favorite book in the arc, simply because of how little happens. I could literally summarize it in one sentence. 'Paranoid, inexperienced queen finds a magical ring that puts her through irrelevant character development while unfamiliar dragons escape to her continent.' Book 15: The first few chapters were okay-ish, but the rest... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

i would LOVE if this were to be how arc three was written. i mean i guess its cool that we got to see what happened during the scorching and a check up on pherhia, but like, we could have had, like, a cave with a carved story of the scorching in the wall, and we dont really need to know about pherhia during the pantala arc, y'know? also, i literally HATED the othermind plotline. i have this thing where i think about all i can remember of the latest arc i read and all i can think about is #1, how the othermind plot S.U.C.K.S. and #2, how bad i feel for bumblebee's biological parents 😢( i know most hivewings are bad and bumblebee could have had abusive parents but what if they were some of the good hivewings, that only wanted a child of their own, but it ended up being kidnapped by the dragons they are rooting for 😢😢)

I really, REALLY like this idea! I ALSO REALLY HATE the b.o.e plot line. And also in the book 15 a.u, you could foreshadow the scorching for arc 4. I think that would be ePiC!!!!!

I personally liked the third arc, definitely my second favorite but I do like what you've done here.

But, surprisingly i actually liked The Breath of Evil and while it is a weird idea, i would have liked to have seen Wasp, herself have to work with everyone to defeat it, because who doesn't want to see Wasp's ego just crumble, because honestly Wasp loved control, i could just imagine her reaction to learning she ain't in control, but then Wasp would have tried to kill our Main Cast, but eventually would be killed.

Good video, but here's how I think the killing Wasp scene ould take place. Luna held out her talons, the glowing glands glimmered like dancing firelight. Hazel stepped aside as Sundew pushed past, her scowl deeper and more angered than ever before. (Will this really be easy?) Hazel looked at the throne Queen Wasp sat upon, her stinger out and glittering dangerusly in the firesilk light. Luna leaped over the woven silk rug stretched out before her, and phumes of orange silk spilled from her wrist. Wasp let out a bellow of agony and her wings flared and closed like currtens thrown briskly over a body. An image that Hazel wished she hadn't thought of.

I was really engaged through 11 to right before the end of 13. I was impressed with the moral difficulty and complexity of the plot lines they were going for, with themes of colonialism, revenge, and societal movements. And then… then… sentient plant? Wha…? It felt like a severe left turn far away from really digging into the themes they had set up into territory that left me increasingly bewildered. I think something more along these lines would have made much more sense to me. Also, nice artwork!

'Well viewers the main character for book 15 will be.' Me: PLS BE SWORDTAIL 'ITS HAZEL' Me: YES! wait what? No hate tho

"So you think the breath of evil plotline was bad?" "Yes, and I'm tired of pretending its not." This defiantly needed saying, and I'm glad you did. Don't want to hate on Tui, but to me it felt like she didn't have a clear idea of what the ending was going to be when she started the book. In the rest of the series, there were hints, and lore drops leading to the finale, but the "Breath of evil?" It was just dropped out of nowhere. I hope Tui listens to the message and sees this as a way to improve rather than us just being terrible.

Great ideas! Honestly, I’ve thought about this on my own for a while. Maybe I should write my own video?

I am “politely” saying I would probably hate the new book 14 because I love Snowfall and Lynx and that entire book. though I think this plot could be good and they could make a legends book for Snowfall that would have Qibli and Lynx. I like the new book 15 more than the original because Hazel. I love Lynx though so if you’d write the new 3rd arc you have to write something about Lynx, maybe a new what if?

Ark 3 was, to me, an enjoyable ark. However it really could have been written better. But what people don’t seem to realize is that we are comparing the books to arcs 1 and 2. Of course they would be different. Also 15 200+ page books could NOT have been easy to pull off and I could understand if she just ran out of steam at the end.

I think this is a great remake! One thing that I would change, is keeping the loss of animus magic from the epilogue. Excuse me if she did/did not change that, was kinda half in on this vid, but me and my friends have brainstormed this awesome fourth arc idea, revolving around the loss of animus magic. Even if this isn’t fully canon, there are many paths going forward with this ending! Will share rough story draft at 300 likes

I think the entire fandom can agree that book 14 is meh and book 15 is just BAD. The first three are all right book 12 being the best because, Cricket, need i say more? I will not be suprised if Amazon decide to change the ending in the TV sow

I do agree that some of the plot lines needed fixing but some of the things you said weren’t that interesting to me I think that you need to add like the breath of evil in some plots but not in to much like in the book. I think the one book that needed the most fixing was book fifteen because it kept talking about how they were stuck and didn’t really talk about the other characters so you were pretty good about that. I also think that you were right that it should be a different main character because Luna just wasn’t really the best about being the main character in book fifteen. I also agree that Luna and Swordtail should have stayed the same as they were.

I would definitely have to agree that the third arc was the worst of the three, though I still think it had it's good things. I kind of liked the concept of one of the humans from the scorching remaining to that day and affecting the lives of the characters; it just wasn't implemented very well. The character change of Luna in the last book, as well as the plant has a mind coming with no foreshadowing (as far as I know) made it much less satisfying, and the general 180 of book 14 kind of broke my investment in Pantala by being reminded of the previous characters. That's just my two cents on the subject. I really did like the new story proposal and think it would have been much better.

I totally agree with all of your points! I actually enjoyed book fourteen, but it has zero place in that arc. I also really disliked book 15 because the ending was just incredibly sad, and in book 11, I liked luna, but in her book, I dispised her. It was the same with Sundew, she seemed cool and a little bit too much like tsunami, but I didn't hate her but after book 12 her personality was just everywhere and wasn't very enjoyable. Anyways, sorry about that rant, lol. I hope everyone has a blessed week😊

As a writer myself, I could never really quite figure out what went wrong with the end of the series, but you explained it perfectly! I love love LOVE your solution, it just fits the series so much better and I would totally read it in a heartbeat. Do you have any books of your own out??

I agree with everything tbh, arc 3 didn't make sense a lot to me through the last two. I do still like the idea of the pantala dragons leaving to Pyriah(forgive me if this isn't spelled right) But I also think that it was very unnecessary to add a plant with a brain. I think it would have made more sense if it was just a plant that was toxic and made dragons go berserk. And I think it would have made more sense if Wasp's venom, when she ingested the plant, kept the plants toxicity at bay which allowed her to mind control her tribe by poisoning them in their eggs before they were born. Since the plant of evil would just have been a brainless plant, the last book to arc 3 would have been different a lot since it probably wouldn't have consisted with the mad man. I do agree Luna was the wrong point of view choice for the last book, it should have been someone else. And tbh, it would be interesting to see Hazels point of view. I think wasp would have been too powerful enough to deal with on her own though, so I think the idea of leaving to Pyriah would still be an option. It just wouldn't happen with the point of view from Snowfall, instead I think the second to last character should have been Luna since Luna wouldn't have been blown away on the separate continent already. Luna is still the same fireball that she is, but she has learned different things since meeting others that aren't bad. And then they would probably plan to gather as many as they could that weren't captured to leave to the other continent. Then, they would meet mostly the arc 2 characters and the arc 1 characters. Since that would happen they would still meet Wren and Sky, I still like the idea of the dragons and humans finally being at peace with eachother. Then they fly back to Pantala with their dragon army. And they defeat wasp and find a way to settle the conflict between the 3 tribes. And the last book, with Hazel being the new pov, would be where they are trying to figure out how to resolve peace with eachother and how to behave like a decent tribe. Im not sure how the Queen thing would go since Wasp ruled the Hivewings and the Silkwings, maybe one of the other royal Hivewings could have been the Hivewings new Queen. And Im not sure about the silkwings since they never had a new heir. Either Hazel would rule over the Leafwings and the Silkwings, or a new Silkwing would be chosen to be Queen. Other than this idea that I have, I agree with everything else. Arc 3 was really jumbled together.

Anyone got any idea who the silk wing on the rock is? and the leafwing the kind of teal blue one they’re flying the closest to the group. Any clue?

Great rewrite, but I still have a problem that I had with the original arc 3- I feel, at least to me, that blue kind of gets sidelined. I think it started at book 13 for both original and rewrite, and I wish he had more to do with book 15 at least. Everything else though, was absolutely amazing and a great rewrite of the arc! :D

I like the original plot except for snowfall and lunas book, snowfalls should have been fron hazels pov in Pantala, they should've learnt the truth about the evil plant from the humans and then book 15 would have better pacing and lunas fiery personality

One of my main problems with Arc 3 was that Books 11 & 12 just didn't feel like Wings of Fire books Heck I'm pretty sure that Book 13 only felt like a true Wings of Fire book because Tsunami & Turtle showed up

Personally I like the 3rd arc, but I completely understand all the hate it gets. The main thing I don't like about your rewrite is that Pyrrhia isn't in it. I feel like if you could fit Pyrrhian dragons somehow making it to Pantala and sorta trying to help but perhaps not understanding all the issues and getting in the way. Idk, I haven't really thought about it much.

I love your artwork, Cyprus! I also loved your rewrite for Arc 3, because your version is what I was desiring when I was reading the books. I wish the OG Arc 3 showed more of Pantalan diplomacy and rebellion without Pyhhria needing to be there. If you want to actually write the story, I would be all for it! I also think it would've been interesting, inspired by other ideas, where the LeafWings hated fungus as some type of evil presence and that it was a forbidden practice to speak to fungus. Then in Arc 3 they find the Breath of Evil itself was a fungus that went into the brain. Queen Wasp finds this out because Hawthorne was practicing the forbidden "dark" arts. It also would make more relativity to the zombie fungi we have in our world where the fungi take control of insects such as ants.

Imagine this…fan made forth arc. Idk why I’m putting this here

2:37 before meeting blue she didn't think about silkwings not having rights and how her parents talked to them, they were something that she just wanted to study. she wasn’t mean, but wasn’t going out of her way to be nice. The only reason she helped blue is because 1. she wanted to know why they were chasing him and after that, she wanted to study him, to learn more about the specimen in front of her. how long has it been since you read the books? She started to realize that silkwings were dragons when she actually thought about the fact that they have feelings 2:56 she already has, she was making excuses for them for several books.

You should do a what if scarlet won the fight against ruby on your what if channel and go into detail about the skywing tribe! So much potential! Plssss.

I could see book 14 way different but kinda the same Swordtail as main character trying to prove his worth as a member of the team instead of just being there. The book would have a prologue with snowfall being extremly paranoid about these dragons coming to her kingdom but then we get to swordtail in chapter 1. The gist is they get to pyrrhia and while trying to throw these leafwings and silk wings together without anyone fighting swordtail ends up becoming friends with snowfall over something like his mom also died from a sickness from the enemy(maybe hivewing venom?!?!) and swordtail helps snowfall become a better queen and figures out how to be helpful at the same time (wanna keep snowfalls arc)we are also gonna need a new prophecy because no Cotten mouth so yeah Turn your eyes your wings your fire To the land across the sea Where dragons are poisoned and dragons are trapped And no one can ever be free A secret hides inside their eggs a secret lurks within their queen A secret hidden so very deep it is very hard to see Open your hearts you minds your wing to the dragons who flee from the hive Face the wasp with talons united or all the tribes shall not survive

this is unrelated to this vid at all but if the silkwings ever get a queen they would have to be related to queen monarch so all the flame silks they cant be male so cross off blue, blue and luna's dad, and any other male flame silk i can think of and they have to be young enough and old enough to have a lasting reign so that would be luna (ofc it would be luna ;-;)

I really like this AU as someone who despises arc 3's conclusion. This would also set up arc 4 as the kinda rebuild of Pantalan civilization and the two continents connecting. Amazing art btw 🤩

Im not being rude but the third arc is my favorite. I loved it. I also liked how you changed it but i feel like some people are a bit to rude about it not you though. Also love your art not being. Not a hate comment.

If you do, you need to do a winglet about Snowfall to fix her creator. If not, that's a crime.

I thought cottonmouth was the “brain” of the plant 🤔 I haven’t read them in a while though

3rd arc was my favorite but you have a lot of really good thoughta and critique i 100% agree with. v fun

"I hate the breath of evil plotline!" Cyprus and every single WoF fan to ever exist said in union 😂

I agree after book that moved off to the ice wing kingdom ,it made the books a bit complicated,

Your version is so much better! I hated books thirteen and fifteen but I would love to read yours!

I love Snowfall's book but I always wish that it was a stand alone as it kinda frustrated me that it was part of arch 3

Yes, i think having a actual resistance would make the ark soo much better, I think Moon would still have a vision and possibly try to get there, but get there once the wasp-killing is over to help the Silkwings sort out who's their new leader. I think it'd be fun to see Io or Luna as the Silkwing queen, but there are a lot of dragons who'd be great too. You did great Cyprus, I liked your idea a lot more than the original lol.

8:43 it’s not the plant though, it’s a dragon and a human. The plant is harmless on its own.

I feel like books one and two were fine, this arc has some of my favorite characters in wof (I really like everyone except for blue and the book 15 version on Luna) book three went a little weird with the sentient plant and wasp being a puppet but Tui could have salvaged it by going in one very specific direction: Make the breath of evil an eldritch being. Think about it, it's insanely old, has powers we can't quite understand, isn't like anything else in wof (except maybe animus magic but my favorite fanfictions have that coming from eldritch sources anyway). This would provide quite the setup, imagine Sundew, Io, Cricket, Bumblebee, (and maybe Willow and Hazel) running from an eldritch hivemind. Plus they'd have to fight and hide from Blue and Swordtail, plus many friends and family members while desperately searching for a cure. There could even be a melancholy ending with them being unable to cure anyone, so getting rid of the breath of evil hivemind would mean killing or banishing all of it's hosts. (including the people who were turned in book 13). Then they would have to try to rebuild and move on with the continent in shambles. The re-building would be perfect for a fourth arc, and could be when they introduce Luna and the Pyrrhians back to Pantala. It could start with Luna returning and being insanely mad at Cricket, Sundew and the others for not saving her brother or boyfriend. Over the course of the arc, Luna and everyone else could come to terms with what happened to Pantala, while you know, trying to rebuild in a world virtually without hivewings, with a leafwing tribe around half the size, and with mostly silkwings remaining. Think of all the skills that could be lost, hivewings were almost all of the scientists, created most art beyond silk weavings, and who knows what else, I mean some of it could be preserved, but it would be the loss of almost entire tribe's worth of knowledge. Pantala was probably pretty close or even undergoing an industrial revolution type thing, and that would likely screech to a halt. This could put dragons back technology-wise decades of even centuries. IDK there are just better ways to have finished the final arc then what we got, and this makes me terrified about whether arc four will be good.

I love the 3rd ark and I’m ngl I clicked on this video for the art because OMG ITS STUNNING

I do agree with your AU version of Arc 3 of Wings of Fire, i was reading 14 and 15 soon after the books came out and was bored and was no longer being hung onto by the tension of scenes in my head like the first 2 Arcs. I would've loved to see more tension within Arc 3

9:53 To be fair.... Burn DID have a silkwing wing in her tower.

Personally. Think the current book 14 would have been a great legends novel, as it does dive in really well into jerboa and characters who did have an important lore role

Wow! THE ART!!!!!! IO’S DESIGN AAAHHHHH!!!!

yayy im here within the first 30 minutes! I love your content, by the way! Your such a good artist and everything you make is so cool and creative!

I do want them to eventually put book 14 in to a character arc for snowfall and for the invasion to actually be an investigation in to distant kingdoms aka pyrhirra and for a later look into the book of clear sight to have little hints and a map to pyrhirra and for snowfalls character arc to be a winglet and on pyrhirra for moon to have multiple visions for pantala

I SO AGREE THEY BUTCHERED LUNA IN BOOK 15

Okay. For Cricket, I don’t think she could ever just “not think” about the SilkWings. I mean sure, she’s a HiveWing, but her whole deal is that she overthinks everything and asks tough questions. Her quests for knowledge would probably lead to her concluding that it makes no sense for someone to be better than others because of what they look like, probably at a young age. This is because she has been searching for answers he while life, and we knwo that she already looked into SilkWings as much as possible. In addition, if she thought SilkWings were below her, why would she every have helped Blue? I mean, you could say that she would have to “study and research a live specimen,” but she probably would do that because he was a wanted fugitive. Also, her experiences with being hurt (whether mental or physically) would make it so she could never make others feel less than herself. But also mostly because Cricket is my favorite and I can’t imagine her being mean

Do you create some more animations for your Leafwing, OC

I love this idea of a new arc 3! It was really funny because I was thinking about if I got the chance to re-write arc 3 what would I do and I was like Cyprus please make a“rewriting arc 3” video! And you did! I think that this could also include Pyrrha in some way but I’m not sure how. Thanks so much for making this!

I love the whole series and I just finished book 15 today. I agree it wasn’t the best because most of it was taken place in the abyss and kind of confusing but I love it anyway.

I like this AU idea alot more, and I think part of the reason why Arc 3 dipped in plot quality halfway through (at least to me) was that Tui got burnt out from the fairly quick release windows of her books. Hopefully her temporary break from WOF will allow her to give us a much better Arc 4 when it finally releases!
