Use the & symbol to create the selector .icn-warning. Set the color of .icn-warning to red.

You're close - since this one is under .icn also, you're basically doing the same thing you did with .icn-success. The .icn selector should look something like this:

.icn {
  font-size: 1.25em;
  &-success {
    color: green;
  }
  &-warning {
    color: red;
  }
}
