(I know it looks long, but hold on, it’s good.)

Once, me and my friend tamed a dark blue pt, whom I named Nightshade. Back then, my friend was bent on getting wyvern eggs, so we pumped levels into Nightshade and headed for the trench. When we got there, I was so nervous, it took like five minutes for me to get the egg and fly for my life. To no one’s surprise, we were chased by maybe four wyverns, but we were getting ahead…. until I ran out of stamina. Nightshade headed straight down but I wasn’t having it, so I parachuted off. I hightailed it on foot, but was still murdered to the parents. I respawned home, and got my stuff back (modded item retriever) including the egg, who was a high level poison wyvern who I named Medusa. The only thing I couldn’t get back was my Nightshade. Fast forward a few weeks and we come back to the wyvern trench. As we leave with another egg, I spotted something on Medusas back.

A name tag.

I head closer and see the familiar flapping, dark blue wings of my missed pteranodon. Nightshade survived all these days just a few feet from a wyvern trench! I immediately put her in a soul ball (modded cryopod), and flew home with a prideful heart. Until we took down the server, Nightshade lived with us, the hardy pt who bested a trench-full of wyverns.

Long live Nightshade, gone but not forgotten.
