History
Every twelve years, the Dragon Kingdom hosts its most precious event, the Year of the Dragon Festival. Dancing, feasting, and frolicking surrounded the delivery of 150 dazzling dragon eggs by the Fairies.
Spyro: Year of the Dragon
In Spyro: Year of the Dragon, the Year of the Dragon took place during the entire setting of this game. Fairies deliver new dragon eggs into the Dragon Realms, and the eggs hatch only at this time. However, after the festival left the dragons, including Spyro and Hunter, exhausted, Bianca and the Rhynocs stole all of the dragon eggs from under the Dragons' noses while they were sleeping, leading to the events of the game.
The Legend of Spyro series
Around the introduction of The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning, the Year of the Dragon was taking place as Ignitus and the other remaining Dragon Guardians were watching over a clutch of dragon eggs inside the Dragon Temple, including the egg that contained the next purple dragon, Spyro.
However the Dark Master, Malefor, heard of the prophecy of the next purple dragon and sent his Ape army to the Dragon Temple to destroy the eggs to prevent Spyro's birth. He also ordered Gaul, the Ape King, to steal one of the dragon eggs as Malefor needed a dragon born in the Year of the Dragon to open the gateway that served as his prison. While Spyro's egg was safely rescued by Ignitus, the other Guardians were unfortunately overwhelmed. By the time Ignitus returned to the Temple, the dragon eggs were smashed by the Apes, while Cynder's egg was taken by Gaul to be corrupted by Malefor's influence as ordered.
