Sky is 'the silent girl' who was washed ashore on Artimé on a raft with her brother, Crow. She is an orange-eyed teenager from Warbler Island, which is where Mr. Today is from. Sky, like Meghan, Lani, Samheed, and Crow, had the voice-restraining necklace of thorns. When she appeared in Artimé, people were wary at first. While Lani was gone, Alex developed a crush on this mysterious girl and they even shared a kiss. Sky appears in Island of Silence, Island of Fire, Island of Legends, Island of Shipwrecks, Island of Graves, and Island of Dragons.
Appearance
Sky has long, wavy, dark copper-colored hair, sunset orange eyes that have a bit of gold (from the acid eye drops that were forced onto all the Warblerans), brown skin, and plump lips. She has a few scars around her neck from where the Thornament was. She is exotic-looking and very beautiful. In Island of Dragons, it is guessed by Kaylee that she had South American or Mexican ancestors.
Description
Sky is brave, kind, intelligent, and determined. She was scared and shy when she first woke up in Artime. She grows extremely confident as the series goes on. She's considered Alex's main love interest and helps Alex in his struggles. She is a natural leader whose best weapon is a sword.
Island of Silence
Alex, Lani, Samheed, and Meghan discover a raft floating in the water. They quickly bring it ashore and call for help. On the raft is a girl and a boy (Sky and Crow). The girl (who is Sky) looks to be a few years older than the boy and they are both adorned with thorn necklaces which weave in and out of their skin. They are carried to the infirmary which Alex single-handedly expands at a command and with help from Mr. Today. For days Sky and Crow are unconscious. Alex visits them often to see if they are getting better. Sometimes, he'd imagine their background stories and how they arrived in Artimé. Mr. Today predicted that they might've escaped from an island; he didn't think it could be Warbler. A few days later, it is announced that the girl has woken up. She's terrified of the unfamiliar surroundings, so Mr. Today asks Alex to try making her feel better. Alex tries to sooth her and offers her water, which the moment she puts it in her mouth--she spits it in Alex's face. Alex is very surprised and this stands as an amusement for the teachers.
By the end of Island of Silence, she and her brother sit in the gray shack together when Artimé disappears.
Island of Fire
Sky eventually grows closer to Alex and she warms up to him. They spend many nights on the roof of the gray shack together. Over time, she and Alex begin to fall for each other. She helps solve the puzzle to fixing Artimé. After Artime is restored to normal, Sky is freed from her Thornament after having been reassured that the birds of Warbler will not peck her eyes out if it was removed. She became a trusted friend with Alex and his companions. Once they're all ready, they set out to rescue Lani and Samheed. On the way, the ship pulls them into the pirate island. As they're on the boat, Sky kisses Alex, leaving him very confused on who he likes. When they get to the pirate island, Sky tries to talk about the kiss but Alex replies, "Don't worry. I've already forgotten about it." This leads Sky to give him a slight cold shoulder.
Sky saw her mother below the water as she, Crow, Alex, Simber, and Carina, were looking around the Pirate Island, and she managed to get her attention. Her mother had a rapid fire discussion with her daughter in the sign language of Warbler. Sky's mother left and came back with a spell that would disenchant the ship Sky and many other Artimeans were sailing on. When Sky's mother was dragged away, Alex promised to help save her mother when they could.
When the group finally rescued the Samheed and Lani, Alex realized the two had gained feelings for each other, and finally accepted he has feeling for Sky. When the group got back to Artime, Sky got more and more anxious to rescue her mother. She finally takes matters into her own hands and takes the raft she arrived in to rescue her mother. Alex swims out to her despite his broken ribs and convinces her to stay. He promises he'll get her mother back. They sort of confess their interest in each other and hug. She later becomes Alex's girlfriend.
By the end of the book, there was a masquerade party, which is set a few months later. It was interrupted by a loud, booming noise and Aaron's sudden appearance. When Aaron first saw Sky, he immediately noticed her beauty and mentioned he was High Priest, trying to impress her. His efforts proved futile though as Sky was disgusted by the Wanted twin from Alex's stories of him.
Sky ran outside with Alex and panicked when they all saw Warbler fleets coming to attack.
Island of Legends
Alex tried to convince her to hide in the library but she refused and decided fight with and for Artime. During the war, Sky was knocked unconscious during the battle against Warbler. She cast a tube spell as a boulder was about to crush her. The rock exploded and Sky said she "inhaled rock." While she was unconscious, Alex was worried sick. Henry and Ms. Morning managed to help her regain consciousness. She wakes, coughing and hacking.
Alex and Sky break up, even though he is still in love with her, due to the fact he isn't putting any time into their relationship. But in Island of Graves when they are on the boat ride to save Aaron, Sky admits that she loves Alex. But then she gets embarrassed and said that she loved him like a sister (which makes her more embarrassed). Later when Alex stops the never ending hurricane on the Island of Shipwrecks he kisses her and then they get back together.
Island of Dragons
Nothing
Dragon Captives
Sky is working on helping the volcano on the Island of Fire not go down into the sea anymore. When Simber, Carina and Thatcher meet up with her, she notes she almost got sent into the volcano, like Queen Eagala did, but Scarlet saved her. On the return of the dragons, Simber, Thatcher, and an unconscious Fifer, Scarlet says that Sky had gone under, and Scarlet was to late to save her.
