Delphyne is a young dragon, daughter of Matriarch Zirnitra and granddaughter of the late Matriarch Katla. She hatched in the Roost when Katla drew her last breath and was named after the island of Delphi in honor of the home of the oracle Faeli Aurora who had witnessed the dragon's hatching. Delphyne was snatched by the Dragolich which Cain Highwind and Drishnek had summoned and was taken to Alent to play a part in an unholy ritual during the Battle of Alent.
