Hiccup is the Chief of Berk, and life seems to be going good...
Except for the fact that nearly every other Viking Tribe has a grudge against Berk, Hiccup is urged to marry, and time's running out before another war ignites.
Merida is the Queen of t...
Merida did it! She saved her brothers and the clans. I'm glad Toothless and Whisp have recovered now. Currently we're all headed back to Castle DunBroch.
Me and Merida are on our dragons, and everyone else are traveling via horseback. Though the triplets wanted to ride with me and Merida. I was able to convince them to ride horses, and later I'd take them each on a dragon ride.
I actually like having little brothers. I know what it's like to BE a little brother thanks to Dagur and Heather; but Hamish, Harris, and Hubert are new experience.
We make to the castle.
"Dragons!" A lady doing laundry shrieks.
Elinor rides ahead to tell the people not to shoot or panic. She also sends someone to fetch Maudie hiding out in the cottage.
We all crowd into the throne room. Merida had changed in her room into a regal blue and gold gown and a matching crown. Likewise Elinor had changed into a gold dress and redid her hair.
Merida looks so stunning. I can't help but gape at her beauty. Toothless nudges me.
"What are you looking at?" I grumble to him. Toothless and Whisp purr in amusement.
"So! Is et true ye promised yer hand ta a Vikin'!?" Macintosh yells, waving his sword.
McGuffin swats the sword down.
"Aye, et is." Mer says, standing from her throne.
Collective gasps are heard around the room.
"Ye promised ta marry one o' the suitors!" A clans man yells.
"Nay!" Merida answers, her eyes storming. "Ah, promised ta marry tha one whom ah chose! An' ah chose Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the 3rd! Vikin' Chief of the 5th Clan, Clan Berk!"
I step back. I'm impressed how Merida took control of the room. And wow. Berk's the 5th clan...huh. That title will need some getting used to. Clan Berk. Well, it does have a nice ring.
"Tha Vikin's'll be livin' 'ere!?" A lady squeaks, almost about to faint from fear.
Oh boy.
"They are already 'ere."
People protested, but Merida simply cried out, "SHUT IT!"
Wow. I need her to teach me how to do that!
"As a dowlry for mah hand in marriage, Clan Berk will be given the woods an' half o' Clan DunBroch for dwelling. The borders is the firefalls an' the glen near Clan McGuffin. They will be considered one o' us. Equals. They promised ta fight with us. They are now our people, an' we are theirs. They are our kin, an' we are theirs. An' their chief will be mah husband; an' ah will be his wife."
My eyes start to water at Mer's speech. I never knew she could be so eloquent. She stood up for Berk. She considers us her own. She protects her own.
Merida then approaches me.
"Mer-"
She cuts me off with a kiss.
