CHAPTER 17 - THE HOLY GRAIL

*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Hi everyone!!!!

So sorry for the lateness in this chapter!!

Okay, so I'll just start by saying that not a lot happens in this chapter?

I'm not going to lie, but literally 3,000 words is just a backstory (which I made up but added other elements of Arthurian, Celtic and Irish legends into it). 

So, if you do find it boring, you could just skip it to the end...(sorry, not sorry!)

Some pronunciations;

- Geillis - pronounced GAY-leesh. Feminine, Scottish name. 

- Sassenach - a derogatory word from Scotland referring to an English person. It comes from the word 'Saxon'. To be honest with you, if you called me a Sassenach, I wouldn't be that offended. It sounds cool! XD

- Buyids - An Islamic dynasty that emerged in what is now Iran. Eret mentions them...later on.

- Treasa of Laighin - Treasa is an feminine Irish name pronounced 'TRA-sa' and 'Laighin' was a petty Kingdom of Ireland in the south-east coast. It's pronounced 'Li-ohn'.

Also, I'll add the map again;

- The purple dot is the campsite

Okay, on with the chapter!!!!

*BERK*

OMNISCIENT POV

The last thing Valka needed was two boats arriving on the shores of Berk.

All she had to hope was it wasn't anyone looking for a fight.

Valka handed her granddaughter to her maternal grandmother, before she walked out of the Great Hall and over to the docks.

"Expecting someone?" Gobber asked and Valka shook her head.

"Hiccup left no note..." She replied and then sighed. "What if they want him? What do I say?"
