How does the setting impact the story?
A volcanic island with hardly any food on it is where the NightWings live so they want to invade the rain forest to get there wonderful food. This also impacts the story because the volcano explodes and it makes the two tribes have to live together in the rain forest.
Internal and External
This book has a lot of internal conflicts because Starflight gets taken to the NightWing island and he knows no one there.
Examples of internal and external conflicts;
One internal conflict is starflight debating if he should wait for his friends or if he should go back to them alone.
One external conflict is the dragonets are debating how to fight the NightWings.
