Just to let you know, the dragon on the cover looks like Custos.

You guys really seem to like this story! Im really glad you do like it!.  I mean 200+ reads and 16+ votes?! Its awesome!

I hope you guys enjoy the new letters that are in the chapters (pay attention to them because they have serious meaning later on).

And so once again its time for the story. Also, the last chapter I wrote was the longest one I have written for this story so I hope this one will be longer. There's a little bit of a point of view change in this chapter, I hope that's okay.

Also, you guys are going to hate me so much in the next few chapters ;)



Athen's sight completely returned the next day. Her blue eyes gleamed with refound sight as she saddled Gallows. Hiccup and the riders had also returned, glad to find that Athen had her sight and Viggo had not stolen or broken anything on the edge. Hiccup seemed to trust him enough now to let him wander the island, though the brown-haired man still never left the housed part of the island, the closest he would get to the forest was the edge of the wooden platforms. It seemed he did not like the prospect of getting lost or hunted.

"Hey Athen!" a voice yelled from behind her. The dark haired woman turned her head to face where the voice had come from, it was Astrid who was beckoning her to come over to her hut. Athen sat in Gallows saddle and the silver beast took to the air, slow wing beats brought them up to the hut in little to no time. 

"What is it?"

"That chest under the spare bed? Did you open it?". Athen nodded.

"Were you able to read the dialect? None of us have been able to" Athen paused for a millisecond and weighed her options before spitting out a blatant lie.

"No, I couldn't understand a word". Astrid nodded in understanding and walked towards the clubhouse, leaving Athen on Gallows back. Said woman ran her hand down the dragon's flank.

"How about we catch up on all the flying we missed?" she smiled generally for once and the silver beast leapt into the air with great speed.


It was truly intriguing, watching dragon and rider in such balance as they flew through the air. The silver beats powerful wings catching every breath of wind in the air, spiralling them into rolls and dives and long fast flights across the open water.  The dragon's wings would have been expected to be cramped or stiff from the long time without flight yet it glided through the air, slicing the wind like cake with ease and no hesitance.  It was almost like watching an exquisite dance in the sky, the dragon making the most of its flight time with its rider before having to land once more, it then disappeared from sight below the island, crashing into the cave system below.
