sphynx, white dragon guardian
Anadreste
Summary
Anadreste is Bynx’s sister, one of the sphynx children of Attabre, and the guardian of the white dragons. She made a true sacrifice against a great white-dragon threat at Sunserene, becoming part of the white dragons and turning them good; her power should therefore remain in white dragons and their descendants, including Icefang’s line. Bynx later found no trace of her in a white dragon, leaving the fate of her inheritance unresolved.
Known Details
- The Sphinx are the children of Attabre.
- Trixus, Benu, and Garadule are Bynx’s brothers.
- Day 43’s Benu-family list names Anadreste among the sphynx siblings.
- Anadreste blessed Papa Marmaru, the fragmented black crab from Invar’s box.
- Anadreste sacrificed herself to become part of the white dragons, turning them into good dragons.
- Because of that sacrifice, all white dragons and their descendants should have a trace of her present.
- This explains why Eliana can also be Attabre’s daughter: Icefang is Eliana and Lady Kalissa Hartwall’s white dragon father, and Anadreste is one of Attabre’s Sphinx children.
- On
day-47, a Sunserene palace door was carved with a female sphynx face identified as Anadreste / Bynx’s sister. - Bynx later cast Truesight and found Anadreste was no longer present, with no trace of her in the white dragon. This is significant because a trace should have remained in white dragons and their descendants.
