Keeper of the Lost Cities Wiki

Alicorns are horses with feathered wings and a horn jutting out of their forehead. As of Flashback there are a total of four known in the elvin world- Silveny, Greyfell, Luna, and Wynn. Many consider them to be the rarest creature on the planet.

The elves feared that losing both Silveny and Greyfell would ruin the Timeline to Extinction until Luna and Wynn were born.

Abilities and Skills[]

Alicorns can teleportinflict positive emotions, and track thoughts to their exact location.

Unlocked Description[]

The rarest creature on the planet, with only four in existence (Silveny, Greyfell, Wynn, and Luna) — and that number is a recent development. Alicorns have shimmering silver fur, feathered wings, brown eyes, a wavy silver mane and tail, and a white-and-silver-swirled horn jutting out of their foreheads.

Appearance[]

Alicorns are white horses with white wings, a silver-white horn, and a white mane and tail. Every bit of them sparkles, even their feces, and as Sophie finds out from Silveny's morning sickness, their vomit. However, the tips of the wings of male alicorns are blue. They are said to have purple tongues.

“Their manes looked silvery and feel like ice, and their horns look like a mix of swirling white and silver.”

—Narration, in Exile


Known Alicorns[]

Silveny[]

Silveny is the alicorn Sophie found in Exile. She lived in the Sanctuary and is very important because she was the only female alicorn known to exist in the Elvin world before Luna and Wynn's birth. Silveny is very fond of both Keefe and Sophie, and every mention of Keefe makes Silveny chant "KEEFE! KEEFE! KEEFE!" in Sophie's head. Much to Sophie's dismay, Keefe gave Silveny the nickname "Glitter Butt" because of her shimmery feces. Silveny and Greyfell can teleport, and they sometimes live in the Havenfield Sanctuary with their two alicorn babies, Luna and Wynn. Sophie has a special relationship with Silveny, who helps Sophie sleep by sending calming images into Sophie's mind at night.

Greyfell[]

Greyfell is the only known male alicorn before Luna and Wynn's birth. He has blue-tipped wings like his son Wynn. He currently lives with his mate Silveny and their two alicorn babies. Sophie learned through her telepathy that Greyfell had a hard life before he was rehabilitated, seeing his family and friends hunted and killed by humans and ogres alike. He flies with Silveny, going where she goes. Before Silveny was found, he was the only known alicorn. He is shown to be very protective of his new family.

Luna and Wynn[]

In Neverseen, Lodestar, and Nightfall, it was confirmed by Silveny that she was pregnant. In Flashback, Luna and Wynn were prematurely born and had to live in a special troll hive for some time for them to develop fully. Sophie and Keefe gave Luna and Wynn their names. Wynn had the blue streaks on his wings like his father, while Luna looked more like her mother. They are currently living in the pastures at Havenfield and have a special affinity for Gorgodon. However, this is frowned upon by both Sophie and Grady.

History[]

Book 2: Exile[]

In Exile, Sophie finds Silveny in a forest, while out looking for sasquatches with Grady, Dex, and Sandor. They communicate telepathically before Sophie, despite Grady's wishes, light leaped with Silveny back to Havenfield.

However, soon after Silveny had settled in her new enclosure (and developed a taste for swizzlespice), Vika, Stina, and Timkin Heks attempted to kidnap her. Silveny telepathically called Sophie for help, they stopped the Heks from taking the alicorn, but not without Silveny dive-bombing Stina. Sometime later, Sophie took a ride on Silveny and ended up going on a wild ride before being dumped in a pile of rather sparkly alicorn feces. The Council, Biana, Fitz, Alden and Keefe happen to arrive just in time to see Sophie's disgraceful dismount. Then Sophie goes on another ride, but this time Silveny teleports them away, showing that alicorns are the first animals to have abilities.

The council discusses allowing Sophie to keep and train Silveny, almost deciding to give her to the Heks but ended up deciding to give Sophie a few weeks to show some improvement in Silveny. Sophie ends up succeeding, also discovering that she can teleport. The council is shocked by this new discovery.

Book 7: Flashback[]

In book 7, Sophie finds out that Silveny and Greyfell are having twins. However, the babies are born prematurely, and the elves had to implant them in a troll hive so that they could finish developing properly.

Quotes[]

“Wynn wasn't just adorable. He was a true miracle baby, since he and his twin sister, Luna, were the first alicorns to ever be born in the Lost Cities.”

—Narration, in Legacy

Trivia[]
