Legends

Wings of Fire: Legends is a series of books originally written by Tui T. Sutherland as a companion to the Wings of Fire series. These books tend to be larger than the main series Wings of Fire books, and seem to focus on the past and the history that is not covered by the main books. These books often fill in gaps left out in the main series.

The first Legends book is titled Awakening. The story is told in Battleclaws' perspective. It takes place about a year after the events of the Jade Mountain Academy arc of the original Wings of Fire series. We see how the Talons of Peace decide to take the prophecy into their own talons, and how the characters we got to know got where they were. If not for the decisions Battleclaws makes, the Heirs of Pyrrhia prophecy and the fate of Pyrrhia could've changed.

The second Legends is called Masked. Crimson, a descendant of Maroon, an ancient SkyWing animus, tells the story. We learn in more detail about Maroon, his impact on the SkyWings, and how animus magic managed to survive after generations of them being killed off. Crimson tries to remain a secret to the SkyWings. However, the choices he makes as years pass, may eventually lead to his demise and the rise of Lurker's growing hunger for power.
