"This is Berk. We have fishing, hunting, and charming views of sunsets. The only real problems we have are our enemies; Dragons. They plague the Archipelago like the Scourge of Odin. They took away many of our fellow Viking, including my childhood friend: Hiccup, who was too kind to be taken by anything with a conscience. The other problem that seems more relevant at the moment are the Outcasts. Vikings banished to Outcast Island for their crimes. Their leader - Alvin the Treacherous - wishing for nothing more than Berks destruction. They're a reckless and gullible lot who seem convinced that the fairy tale of the Dragon Master is real. I better keep my guard up if I want to get out of here." - Astrid Hofferson. (common sense would tell you, but I'll say it anyway: I don't own HTTYD. Just this story)
