== In the Liveship Traders ==
Long after The Great Quake killed the Elderlings and buried their cities, the remaining cocoons of unborn dragons were sawn open and shaped into wooden planks (“"[[wizardwood]]”") by the [[Rain Wild Traders]]. These planks were used to construct ships that eventually became sentient and were resistant to the corrosive quality of the [[Rain Wild River]], hence the existence of [[liveships]].
[[Malta Vestrit|Malta]] and [[Selden Vestrit]] freed [[Tintaglia]], the last dragon left alive within her cocoon. Through their association with her, they began to change into Elderlings. It is reasonable to assume that Malta, along with her beau [[Reyn Khuprus]] and younger brother Selden, will play a part in reviving the Elderling race and restoring the dragons and Elderlings to their former glory.
'''The Elderling Queen'''
A tapestry in the ruins of [[Frengong]] depicts a young Elderling queen with a large, scarlet scar upon her forehead. Malta Vestrit severely injures her head on the night of [[Bingtown]]’s 's uprising, leaving her with a similar crest. Reyn describes Malta as “crowned,” "crowned" and the dragon Tintaglia later refers to Malta as “rewarded” "rewarded" with “the "the scarlet crest"."
