Let's find this world
This hidden world
Frida turned so she laid on her back. The endless days she had spent in this bed had gotten on her nerves three days ago. The fever went away two days ago, but her mother had forced her to stay in bed so Frida was completely healthy when she started going back to her normal days again.
She had of course argued with her mother that it was ridiculous and she was feeling fine. Being stuck in this bed would only make her health worse with the boring hours of just doing nothing. Okay, she may or may not have walked around the house when no one was home, but she had a feeling her mother knew that. Her father definitely knew that when he had caught her sitting downstairs with Signes head in her lap. He hadn't been angry at her, he was just glad his daughter was on her feet, but he had thrown more woods in the fire to make sure she was warm. Frida had rolled her eyes at that and told him she was fine.
She knew why they were so protective of her. She was their only child, their precious little girl and would be their last. After years of them trying to give Frida a sibling, they gave up when she turned ten. Apparently the gods didn't want them to have another child. Her father said he was glad he at least had one than none and even tho Frida was annoyed that her friends had a sibling or siblings and she didn't. She had at least all her parents love for her own and the affection, even if that drove her crazy sometimes.
Frida sighed and stared at the ceiling that was so familiar to her now that she could describe it in detail if she needed. At least she had Ingrid to look as a little sister to her, even if Ingrid didn't know that. And Olav and Leif was kind of her big brothers after all. Her cousins may had taking the Ingerman genes the most, especially the boys, but Ingrid had Ruffnuts blue eyes and kind of her body build, Ingrid had little more curves on her body and she wasn't done growing yet. Frida wasn't done growing yet, none of the girls were. The boys wasn't done growing either.
She sat up in the bed and looked out of the window. It was in the middle of the day and she was laying here, bored and ready to do something. Go flying on Signe or just walking around the island would be perfect right now. But her parents wouldn't be happy about it and they had promised that she would be free from her bed tomorrow. If she was and looked perfectly healthy (which she already was!).
Yeah, they would be so happy when she tell them that she and the gang would fly away from Berk to do some exploring for a few days. Just before the sea becomes ice. What her parents nor her friends parents wouldn't know was that their kids would go and find something they had found on a dragon eye. A hidden world that wasn't going to be easy to find, but would be an adventure.
They had agreed to meet on the island Odin Respite, for then fly north. Vylma was the first one there, which wasn't a surprise because she had a shorter fly distance than the other. She was so glad to finally be able to fly again and so was Brie. After two weeks of just laying in bed, waiting for the fever to go away and at the same time battle the nightmares, she was glad to be out in the air with Brie and just feel free.
Barviks council had argued that she needed to her duties as the queen now when she was healthy, but Vylma had promised her friends that she would write back to them as soon she was good to go so they could go and explore the dragon eye secrets. Vylma had declared Åsa, the only councilwoman Barvik had, as the leader while Vylma was gone. She trusted Åsa. She was smart, loyal, a good speaker and could handle a crisis good.
Vylma looked out to the sky and saw her friends on their dragons coming towards her. Gods, it felt good to see them again. She hadn't been on Berk since the battle with Drago and she wasn't ready to. The memories of her grandmother was everywhere on Berk and it even hurt when she looked at the necklace her grandmother had giving Vylma on her coronation, but she hadn't taking it off and she never will. It was the last thing her grandmother gave her, it was a treasure she would bear to her grave.
The dragons landed on the light brown and green grass. The summer was over and nature turned from its colourful theme to a much more grey and brown picture. Winter was around the corner and soon the land would be covered in snow.
"You okay, Vylma?" she went out of her thoughts and looked at Finn, who looked concerned at her.
Vylma gave him a small smile and nodded. She didn't feel to talk about how she felt, not now when they had a mission on their hands. A missions they had waited months to do. "Where should we go first?" she asked the group.
"As I belive its in water, I was thinking about a waterfall, but that means we have to search every waterfall and many islands have those." Ingrid began explaining. "But maybe this… hidden world is under water? The map isn't easy to read, but I think it's underwater. Or like a cave underwater."
Vylma raised an eyebrow at that information. "A cave underwater?"
Ingrid took out to papers from her bag that hung over her shoulder and started reading; "'In a hole in the ground in water bathing in lights. Dragons of different kinds, living in peace as one. Soaring high and low, ground green as the sky. The hidden world will be one. Alpha blue as lightning sky.'"
Vylma narrowed her eyes at what Ingrid just read outloud. She jumped off Brie's back and walked to Ingrid, who gave her the two papers.
"It doesn't make much sense." Brant said and leaned forward on Nightmary's horns.
"Alpha blue as lightning?" Vylma whispered, before she raised her eyebrows. "All I can think about it Toothless. He's the alpha and the offspring of lightning and death itself, but I don't think he can shoot lightning like Thor."
"But it would be cool if he could." Stoick commented.
Vylma changed the paper to the next and started to read outloud; "'North west east south' - well that's helpful- 'Living were they can't be found. Season of cold weather and gold' - north? - 'Wings will carry on. Peace living come home in the sea of dragons'. Okay, so maybe the cove in water idea isn't a bad idea."
"The only problem is that the ocean is pretty big and we don't have time to search every inch of it." Thora said.
"And the dragon eye doesn't give us a clue where to start." Finn added.
"Like I said; it doesn't make much sense." Brant said again.
Ingrid smirked at the group. "But I know where to start."
"North, yes," Stoick began. "Then what? The north is a big place." he pointed out.
"I know that, but the north is the first way writing. We go north, then west, then east and lastly south. And we only go to places that isn't on the map, because I'm pretty sure it would be documented if anyone on Berk had been there."
The group looked at her in silence, questionable looks of this tactic was giving to Ingrid and she threw her hands up, annoyed. "Just… trust me, okay? A whole in the water can't be that hard to find!"
Vylma gave Ingrid back the papers and Ingrid turned her head and looked at her. "Show us the way, Ingrid. I trust you." Ingrid nodded.
They were on their way.
