Okay, friend, grab your coffee and settle in, because the ending of Onyx Storm hit us like a dragon breath straight to the soul. Rebecca Yarros really said, "You want closure? Think again!"
If you've turned that last page and felt your stomach drop through the entire Continent, you're not alone. The cliffhanger at the end of Onyx Storm left us all staring at the wall like we did something wrong. So, who exactly is missing at the end?
It's both of Violet's dragons — Tairn and Andarna. Yep, you read that right. The fierce Black dragon who's been Violet's ride-or-die and the small but mighty golden who chose Violet out of pure stubbornness — gone. No explanation, no gentle farewell, just an absolute gut-punch of a reveal.
Must Read
And let's be real here: without Tairn and Andarna, Violet is essentially cut off from the core of her power. It's like pulling the plug on your phone during your favorite show. Devastating doesn't even cover it.
We've watched Tairn and Andarna become more than just dragons — they're family, they're bearers of truth, and they're emotionally complicated in the best, most dragon-esque way possible. Losing them feels personal because, well, it is.

But here's the silver lining: Yarros clearly isn't done with this storyline, and knowing Violet, she'll fight like hell to get them back. Some bonds just can't be broken, no matter what darkness tries to tear them apart.
So take a breath, trust the process, and remember — every missing piece in a good story leads to an even better rearrangement. The best is yet to come! 🐉✨
