Chapter 191
Hiccups POV:
It's been three weeks since we got back from our trip to the Mayan jungle and in that time, things have been peaceful with no major problems that couldn't be easily handled with one or two major problems popping up. The main problem we first encountered was when we got back to Berk and my parents along with Astrid's parents were curious to know how our trip was and the second I said 'bat monsters' the people swarmed wanting to ask questions about what happened. After that I had to gather everyone in the great hall to show the illusion of what happened and by the end of it my parents looked ready to tie me down and lock me in my room. Astrid giggled at this and teased me about it until I showed what happened with Ichik and it was her who was being smothered by her parents wanting to know if she was truly alright.
This lasted for half an hour before they calmed down enough to let her breath and then came the major pain of people asking me to demonstrate my new gifts including my new prosthetic. When I did a full illusion showing off their capabilities I got a few requests from the men who are in charge of hunts both on and off the island claiming my prosthetics ability to cage the animals and my jaguar masks abilities would save them a ton of time and make things easier for them. I told them I would consider it after I had a few days to get back into my normal routine and settle back down while giving my animals time to get used to me being back.
Speaking of my prosthetic, I tried out its ability to connect to the trees on my tree in the volcano and I was shocked with what happened as it allowed me to not only see through every tree on the island but control every tree on the island, including the bamboo trees. I used this as a way to mess with some of my dragons and animals by making the tree branches reach down and poke them before having it pull away. Confused the heck out of them and in some cases gave them quite a fright making me laugh a bit at how they jumped in fright whenever I ran a branch up their spine. During this time, I also learnt that I could also make my Venus fly traps anywhere on the island at will. This was an ability I knew would be helpful should I ever have to deal with an invasion happening on my island, but I doubt it'll happen anytime soon. There was one thing that confused me though and that was in the middle of the veins was a single flower bud that was blocked off by multiple thorny vines that wouldn't let me through. I figured it must be the heart of the island meaning it better to leave it alone since there's no telling what would happen if I messed with it.
Besides that, I'd put the skull of Xpiayoc in my trophy room on a pedestal behind a glass case as a souvenir from my trip while his macahuitl was placed in my weapons vault where I knew nobody would be able to touch it. Other than that, the only other major thing that's happened was a week ago when the twins who claimed to be practicing their attacks using Barf and Belch but in reality, they were just trying to see how big an explosion they could make and ended up destroying the food store house. When this happened, they just laughed about how awesome they thought it was until me and my parents came to see what had happened and when they laughed about what they did my dad was furious. I had never seen him so mad in my entire life and I'm including the night I first shot down Toothless and ended up destroying a giant torch. Long story short they had their riding privileges taken for three weeks, manure duty for five weeks and always had to be under watch for the next six weeks. Sadly because of the twins the food supply had been devastated and this gave me a lot of work to do in order to help Berk restock the food supply.
That event brings us to now with me on my way to an island called 'Hunters Paradise' which was given the name due to it being crawling with wild boars, bears and other animals while the waters around it have an abundance of fish and sharks so in other words, it's a hunter's paradise. When I leave the island, I intend for it to be full of enough food to restock the storage hold and replace all the supplies that were lost in the explosion. Sitting next to me was Maelstrom who had accompanied me on this trip to collect the food and livestock alongside Shadow, Scar, Shade and Bolt who were going to serve as my hunting dogs by rounding up and chasing them into the spots where I set up my traps. These wolves were happy to get off the island for a bit of hunting on their own since the only time they can hunt on my island is when I let a few boars roam free in the forest. I turned and smiled at the two headed dog and said.
"Hopefully we got enough to replace the missing supplies and calm my dad down enough not to throttle the twins and only shake them like ragdolls again like he did when he found them laughing over what they did." I shivered remembering how my dad was and how my mom had to hit him with her staff to get him to drop them. "Come to think of it, I hope he won't do that to them again since another round of that and they might lose what little brains they do have and they need all the brain power they can get."
He just barked with both heads making me chuckle and rub them before I looked around at my other wolves who were laying around the deck with Toothless laying on the upper deck napping making me role my eyes at the lazy dragon. It was then the island came into sight and I smiled before I let out a whistle gaining the attention of all the wolves on deck and Toothless who was annoyed with being woken up. They all ran up to the front of me wanting to know what was happening as I smiled at them while Toothless ran to my side and Maelstrom remained at my other side as I said.
"We're almost there guys so be prepared to begin the hunt." They all growled and barked showing how ready they were to hunt as I smiled before willing my ship to go faster towards the island.
1 hour later
I was standing on a tree branch with Toothless circling above as we both looked down into the clearing that was now covered in my Venus flytraps ready to close in on the prey we were hunting which in this case is some wild boars. These wild boars were currently being chased into the clearing by my wolves who were approaching fast by the sounds of boars squealing in fear. I switched out my golden prosthetic for my plant prosthetic and sunk into the tree to get a better look at what was happening and smiled at the sight of my wolves chasing a large group of boars through the forest towards the clearing. I waited for a few more seconds and then the boars ran right into the clearing and only a second later they ran into the Venus flytraps that closed in on them one by one. When they first began closing, they scared the heck out of the boars making them scatter and all get trapped a whole lot faster since they spread out faster and capture more. There were a few that tried to get out of the clearing, but my wolves would scare them back into the clearing and they were almost immediately captured by the Venus flytraps.
When they were all captured, I jumped back down to the ground and smiled as I watched the flytraps turn to dust leaving cages made of petrified wood with unconscious boars in them. I smiled as I turned to my wolves and gave a whistle calling my wolves and Toothless into the clearing and watched as they all ran or Toothless flew into the clearing. I smiled and looked around at them as I said.
"Good work guys, we've caught ten boars just now, but they aren't enough to replace all the food that Berk lost so we've got a lot more work to do." They all growled. "Let's get these boars back to the ship and get to work, catching the rest of the supplies." They all growled and barked as roots grew out of the cages bottoms and began carrying the boars out of the clearing while we followed them.
Six hours later
My storage hold was now full of chickens, wild boars, fish and a few sheep with the chickens and sheep in the pens after I transferred them while the boars were in cages made using my Venus flytrap and the fish and sharks were in the storage hold. I gently rubbed the head of Toothless while we looked down at the deck where my wolves were now lying around sleeping and I can't blame them though since we'd been hunting for the last six hours but it was worth it. Toothless then crooned and I smiled knowing what he wanted since we'd barely flown around on this trip and he wanted to get off the ground and explore the island a bit from the air. I smiled at him and scratched his head as I said.
"Alright bud, let's get going." I mounted him. "Just remember, this flight can last an hour at the most since we're needed back on Berk." He growled before we took off.
Half an hour later
We were flying up the side a large mountain on the side of the island enjoying the thrill of flying at such a dangerous angle and at such high speeds. I pulled Toothless' reins back pulling him backwards turning his flight into a backflip as I laughed when he began spinning rapidly until he opened his wings stopping our descent and turning it into a glide. We flew around the side of the mountain as I leaned my head back to look at the sky while smiling and letting the wind run through my hair. I pulled my head back up and turned towards the mountain side smiling and wondering if anyone ever tried to climb it before my eyes landed on an opening in the mountain side. Figuring it was something worth checking out so I turned Toothless towards it before we flew into it only to discover it was really a large cave but there was something about it that I didn't like about it. I turned to Toothless and said.
"Do your thing bud." He let out a roar sending a sonic blast down the cave allowing me to see how deep this cave was and was surprised to find it was pretty deep but there was something at the back. I held up my real hand as I signaled Toothless to keep his guard up. "Let's go."
We slowly made our way down the tunnel as I lit up my golden prosthetics hand and held it up so we could see what was happening and what we found at the end of the tunnel made me sick and Toothless croon sadly. Laying around on the floor was the skeletons of two dragons that I recognized as nightfury skeletons by the shapes of the skulls and bodies. I figured they'd been here for a while judging by the fact that these skeletons were free of any form of skin other than a few discarded scales that were black in color. It was then I noticed something behind them and what I saw took me to new levels of complete disgust as it was a nest and all that was in it were some eggshells and dried goo and the small bones showed they'd smashed instead of hatched. I shook my in pure disgust as I said.
"Hunting dragons are one thing but this, this wasn't hunting, this was just murder." I turned to Toothless who was looking around sadly. "I'm so sorry you had to see this bud." He just crooned as I clenched my fists. "When I find who did this, they'll regret the day they were ever born."
He growled as I noticed a small opening in the wall behind a small boulder. "What's this?" I walked up and pushed the boulder out of the way with no trouble and my eyes widened at what was behind it since there was a small hot spring and inside it was an egg. This egg had a rough black shell and looked to be the size of my head and I knew almost immediately that this was a nightfury egg and possibly the only one of its kind. I prayed to every single deity I knew hoping against all odds the egg could still hatch with the baby inside and slowly picked it up and smiled in joy when I could feel life in the egg before I turned to Toothless, showing him the egg making him croon is surprise. I smiled at him and said.
"Looks like you won't be the only nightfury around now Toothless but the little one's going to need a parent which is a role I think you should fill since you are a nightfury." He simply growled and nodded before walking up and sniffing the egg and then letting out a roar of joy and began bouncing around in joy. "That's right bud, say hello to your new little one." He then retracted his teeth and grabbed the egg in his mouth and crooning making me chuckle at the sight since it was adorable. "You look after the little one while I check out the rest of the opening for anything else."
He just nodded as I entered the small opening and looked around not seeing anything until my eyes looked to the water and I found something at the bottom beneath the spot where the egg was. I reached into the water and dug it out from the dirt and was surprised to see what it was but my surprise turned to joy since in my hand was two dragon eye lenses which is not something I'd seen in a while. I examined them and was looking forward to seeing what information they contained but for now I believed it best to give the two skeletons a proper burial here in the cave around their nest. I crawled out of the opening but as I did, I noticed something lodged into the wall and had a feeling it was a clue to what happened to the nightfuries and who was responsible for this murder scene.
When I got closer, I found it to be a dart of some sort with a vial in the middle of it but whatever was in it dried up a long time ago meaning who ever used it is long gone. I then turned back to the egg in Toothless' mouth wondering how long the little guy had been in the water and how much longer it'll be before it hatches. At least I knew the hatchling inside it was still alive after so long and I could at least help the deceased parents rest in peace with the knowledge that their little ones going to be fine. I turned to Toothless as I hid the dart in my jacket and had my spiderpack put it away before I said.
"Alright bud, let's lay these dragons down to rest and then get out of here." He nodded while crooning around the egg as I looked at the bodies in sadness before I got to work on digging the graves.
Nightfall
I'd spent my entire afternoon digging the graves and laying the dead nightfuries to rest around their nest after I buried it and said a few words of prayer to the deceased dragons while Toothless tended to the egg. When we got back to the ship Toothless didn't let any of the wolves get near the egg once he'd wrapped his body protectively around it and when he did this I saw it shake a bit making me smile since it meant the hatchling was still alive. I intended to help Toothless' set up a nest in his private stable for the little egg to make sure it remained safe through its stay and would need to make sure the small space was kept warm for the egg which would not be difficulty if I could make a vent from the stoker class stable to that area.
Now Berk had come into view and I knew things were not going to be pleasant with my parents more than likely wanting to know why I took so long to get back. I knew Astrid and Blanca were going to want to know the answer to that as well and when it comes to the egg my mom is going to want to do a full examination on it. I just hoped Toothless would allow her to since he'd barely had the egg for that long and he'd growl at the wolves when they got too close and actually watched me carefully whenever I approached him and I was his rider, the one who fed him and scratched his neck. I sighed knowing he was just being an overprotective parent and I couldn't blame him since the little one was still just an egg and I'm guessing he made a promise to the deceased nightfuries to look after their little one.
It was then we docked, and I had my ships front lower so we could begin unloading everything and immediately had my wolves get to work herding the free animals out and willing the cages to begin carrying the now conscious boars out. It was then I looked up at the cliff and saw my parents on their dragons looking down at me most likely just letting me take care of the livestock before confronting me. I gave them a signal to wait till after I was done fully unloading everything and then I would tell them everything when I'm done to which they nodded before flying off as I got back to work.
1 hour later
I was sitting in the great hall with both Astrid and Blanca at my sides while my parents sat across from us and Toothless was resting his head on the table staring intently at what was laying in the middle of it which was the egg. My parents were shocked at the sight of it and even more so when I told them what type of dragon it belonged to and as expected my mother wanted to examine it immediately but Toothless wouldn't let her near it at first. I had to use my calming flute to relax him enough to let me take the egg and place it on the table without growling or biting my hand off for trying to take it. My mom nodded as she finished the examination of the egg before looking at me with a smile as she said.
"It's my first time studying an egg of this kind, but I would say it's perfectly healthy and should hatch in a few more weeks." I nodded as I turned to Toothless.
"Bud, we're going to have a little nightfury running around soon." He just crooned as I smiled at him before my dad said.
"Alright, now that we got that away would you mind telling us how the hunt went?"
"I think I got enough food to put a dent in the amount of supplies that we lost, and we should be able to replace the rest by buying the remaining food from the coming bazaar." He nodded.
"Good because we have chief Nigren of the Grown Hills tribe coming for a visit." I raised an eyebrow. "He wants to try and repair the damage done to our alliance thanks to what happened to Astrid due to his son's actions." I could feel Astrid tense up next to me so I took her hand and gently rubbed the top to calm her. "Along with them we'll also be getting a visit from the Spearhead tribe who want to renew our peace treaty with them."
I sighed knowing this would most likely bring Freya to Berk and I hadn't forgotten what the Spearheads did last time they were here so chances are they will both be major headaches with Freya who is no doubt going to flirt with me and the spearheads who will want to hunt my animals. Of course, I'd no doubt have to also deal with Chief Nigren who no doubt as usual pester me for the designs for my buildings to improve his own village. With all of them here things were most definitely going to be one headache after another and chances are I'm going to need to up security on my island. Knowing this I sighed and asked.
"When will they be arriving?"
"From what their letters said they'd each be here in three days." I sighed in annoyance. "We would've told you sooner, but things have been so busy for us we never got the chance." I nodded before running a hand through my hair.
"How long will they each be staying here?"
"A minimum of a week for each of them depending how long it takes to get all of the business done."
"Just do me a favor and try to make it quick with them."
"I'll do my best son, but these are not things you can rush."
"I know but the longer they're here the bigger the headache will be for me." He nodded.
"I know son, I know."
"Well I better head back to the island for a goodnights sleep." I stood up as Blanca joined me while I wrapped and arm around her before she said.
"I believe that would be best as I have the feeling, we shall all need the rest to deal with the coming challenges that the visiting tribes shall present." We all nodded as Toothless retracted his teeth and grabbed the egg. "Let's go home." As we made our way towards the exit though I turned back to those at the table. "Nobody is to know about this egg, if they did it would be inviting a boat load of trouble to both my island and to Berk." They all nodded in agreement before I continued to lead Blanca out of the great hall and down the stairs knowing that in three days, things were going to be a pain.
Three days later
It's been three days since we got back from the hunting trip in which we found the nightfury egg and that time had been filled with meditation, tea and upping my islands defenses. The reason for the meditation and tea is to help me remain calm and keep my head clear during the visiting tribes week-long visit as the people of the Spearwing and Chief Nigren were most likely going to be the biggest pains in my ass. (AN: Chapter 146 guys.) I had a feeling they were going to pull the same stunts they did last time with Freya flirting with me none stop, Nigren being after my designs and the Spearwings trying to steal my animals. I just wanted them to come, do their business and go back to their own islands and make sure they didn't find out about the nightfury egg as that was a recipe for disaster. Speaking of the egg, Toothless hadn't left its side for the past three days, for longer than an hour at a time which was used to fly or grab a quick bite to eat before returning to his pen to guard the egg.
Now I was standing on the dock with both Astrid and Blanca at my sides while my parents stood a little bit in front of us on our right side as we all looked out at the ocean towards the two ships that were fast approaching. Judging from the sails the ship on the right belonged to the Grown Hills tribe while the one on the left belonged to the Spearwing tribe but for me these sails were just the symbols of future headaches. I took a breath to calm my nerves knowing that getting angry or anxious before the guests even arrived would be just plain ridiculous, so I needed to relax.
When the ships docked, we went through the custom greeting of the chiefs and those they brought with them with Chief Nigren bringing Freya who gave me a flirtatious smile which I ignored while chief Lokitoht brought his son Vaatu and daughter Zeva. Once all the greetings were out of the way we made our way up to the great hall to discuss the usual business with them such as trade routes, future meetings, the alliance benefits and other such things. I made sure Blanca and Astrid remained close at my sides through the entire walk up towards the great hall to keep Freya and Zeva away from me and to keep Vaatu from getting any ideas as I saw how he looked at them in the way that made me sick. This all brings us to now with all of us sitting around a table getting ready to discuss everything that needed to be talked about and it was then I decided to ask about something that I had been wondering about but hadn't been complaining about. I turned to Chief Nigren and asked.
"Excuse me chief Nigren but if I may ask, where's Ulrik?" Chief Nigren frowned as he sighed.
"I felt it better he remain back in my own village as to avoid any problems that may arise during this meeting where I hope to repair the damage to our alliance that he caused with what he did." (AN: Chapter 168 guys.) I nodded as he continued. "I would've come by to make things right sooner, but things have been chaotic on my island and it took a while to get things back in order after what happened on my island."
"Yeah, sorry about all the trouble I caused."
"Don't be, you did my tribe a huge favor by unmasking that villain and freeing our women from her wicked craft."
"Are the men still angry with me?"
"Some but most have gotten used to it and in some cases are happier this way as they got back the women, they fell in love with to begin with." I smiled until Vaatu asked.
"Would you be so kind as to enlighten us as to what it is exactly that happened?" Chief Nigren turned to him.
"Young Hiccup here revealed the trickery of a foreigner who used a method to brainwash the women and some men making them prisoners in their own bodies until Hiccup freed them." Vaatu turned to me.
"How did you know what this woman was doing exactly?" I turned to him.
"Astrid's parents claimed she was acting out of character and requested I investigate and after finding out about her routine I checked out the woman she was meeting with before I checked out the woman's hut and found the device she used to brainwash Astrid and the other women." He nodded. "I immediately recognized it from one of the lands I visited and recognized it as a device that was used by a crook who escaped the land and was believed to be dead and after reading her journal I knew the woman and the criminal were one in the same."
"And what happened to this crook?"
"Well after I found out who she was I returned to the land in which she came from, informed the emperor and requested his aid before returning with them, took her into custody and brought her back to her homeland to face judgement for her crimes and she was sentenced to life in prison in isolation." Chief Nigren then said.
"You forgot to mention the part where you freed all the men and women of my tribe from her mind control and helped stop a major riot and all the women from killing their husbands." I shrugged before Zeva asked.
"How did you break the mind control?"
"One of the gifts from the gods I have is a water pot that enchants any liquid poured into it so that those who drink it gain an immunity to mind control that is below the power of a god." He nodded as Chief Lokitoht said.
"Alright, let's get down to business." With that said the work on the peace treaties began.
Nightfall
It was only the first day and my head was already aching from all that's happened today with what was discussed at the meeting and what business that was done. Another point of my headache was how Freya noticed how close I was to Astrid and when she brought this up, we had no choice but to tell her about how the customs of Blanca's people allowed me to have multiple wives. When she learnt this, I saw the look of glee and desire in both her eyes and the eyes of Zeva which I knew was going to be another headache in the future for not just be but the girls as well. Now I was making my way down the steps of the great hall with Blanca on my arm while Astrid went home earlier with her parents and I couldn't blame her with how Freya and Zeva were acting towards her.
They were trying to belittle her and destroy her confidence in being a suitable candidate for one of my future brides and although they didn't succeed in their main goal, they did succeed in giving her a headache and annoying me. Sadly, as they were guests I couldn't do anything about it without causing trouble for the signing of the peace treaties so for now all I could do was look forward to them leaving. It was then I was brought out of my thoughts by the sound of footsteps from behind me and turned to see my mom walking up to us with a glint in her eye as I asked.
"Everything alright mom?" She nodded.
"I was just hoping to visit tomorrow to see how the egg is doing."
"Please, you just want to get away from all the boring meetings and discussions." She gave an uneasy smile.
"That's just a bonus but I honestly do want to check on the egg as it's not every day we find a nightfury egg." I shrugged.
"True enough." I then smiled. "Come by tomorrow afternoon and keep in mind Toothless is still watching it like a hawk and guarding it like Cerberus guards the gates of Hades." She nodded before returning to the Great hall while me and Blanca continued on our way down the steps.
Six days later
It's been five days since the visiting chiefs came and, in that time, I had been driven to near insanity by them and those they brought with them. Chief Nigren was always asking me for the designs to my ship shed and bath house like he always does but now he was also asking for another tour of my island wanting to see how it's changed since his last visit. Lokitoht was no better wanting to know what new animals I had added to my island and what beasts I'd gone up against while wondering if I had changed my mind about selling some of my animals. Freya and Zeva had been a little less of headaches for me than their fathers but that's only because they'd been driving Astrid crazy by trying to make her feel inadequate as a wife candidate for me. Blanca had the opposite problem since when they found out they needed her approval first they began kissing up to her, trying to convince her that they were good wife material for me so neither girls got a moments peace.
All of this had driven us to carrying around flasks full of the calming tea we all enjoy to keep us from lashing out at the visitors who would not leave us alone. The thing that worried me the most though was Vaatu who hadn't said a word to me since the night he got here, and this worried me for multiple reasons. The main reason is I've dealt with his kind before and when they were silent it meant they were up to something and it didn't help that I'd caught him smirking at something whenever he looked at me. I didn't know if he was up to something or just messing with me but to be on the safe side, I warned my snake guardians to keep on guard and to keep an eye out for him. I also had my ninja watch over him whenever he was in the village to make sure he didn't try anything but sadly the ship was off limits as there would be problems if they were caught.
Now I was sitting at dinner with Astrid and Blanca and was thankful that Freya and Zeva were sitting with their fathers this evening but despite this peace I couldn't relax as Vaatu was nowhere to be found. I also had a gut feeling that there was trouble brewing when it comes to that man and figured it best, I check in on things on my island using my automatons. I went through automaton to automaton seeing nothing out of the ordinary until I went to the two guardian sentinel automatons I set up on either side of the door to Toothless' den and my eyes widened in shock. There was Vaatu making his way towards the door with a crossbow that was loaded with a familiar green tipped arrow loaded into it and my blood boiled.
I immediately activated my guardian sentinels and had them cut him off on his way towards the doors making him step back in shock as they began walking towards him. He backed up as he fired an arrow at one of their heads, but it just bounced off before he began running out of the stables as I activated the guardian sentinels outside the stable doors and had them lift their arms. When Vaatu ran out the door he ran his head right into their arms slamming it into them throwing his body forward while he fell back groaning in pain as my guardian sentinels used their blades to pin him to the ground by his clothes. He struggled but I made sure my automatons would hold him in place until I got there to handle things and make sure he got the message that my island is off limits.
Ten minutes later
I was kneeling down by Vaatus side with two snake guardians at my sides, Toothless behind me, my guardian sentinels still holding him down and the dragon root arrow in my hand. I examined it in my hand as I looked down at him and shook my head before I turned down to look at him and said.
"Vaatu, I thought I made it clear to you and everyone else that my island is off limits yet here you are not only trespassing but also with a dragon root arrow to no doubt use on my nightfury." I pointed the tip at him. "Why?" He glared at me, so I held up the arrow in my prosthetic while channeling a green crystal melting it in my hand as he stared in shock. "That'll be you next if you don't start talking." He gulped.
"I overheard you and your mom talking about a nightfury egg and how your nightfury was guarding it."
"So, you figured you'd trespass on my island, knockout and steal the egg right under my nose." He nodded. "Now what did you intend to do afterwards?" I looked him in the eye. "Did you intend to raise the hatchling so it would be a mindless tool that would answer only to you and help you with your hunts and fights before you killed it when you felt it outlived its usefulness?" I saw a look in his eye proving my assumption.
"Well it's not like it'll be that much different from how you are with your dragons." I glared at him and pressed my prosthetic down on his throat slightly choking him.
"My dragons are my friends and family; not tools I plan to discard at any point in my life and if you ever accuse me of doing such a thing again." I grabbed him by the neck in a tight hold. "Then the blood eagle will be a simple pinch compared to what I'll do to you." He just gasped for air as I shoved him back into the ground. "Now let's go let everyone know what you've been up to and see what they think." With that said I had my guardian sentinels let him go and had my snake guardians grab his arms before we dragged him down to the docks while Toothless walked back into the stables to check on the egg as I smiled and rolled my eyes. "I swear, that dragon of mine is turning into a mother hen." With that said we got going.
Morning
After Vaatu's attempted kidnapping of the dragon egg we took him back to the Great Hall and let both his father and my father about what happened, and I could tell neither of them were happy. Chief Lokitoht wasn't happy as his son had endangered the peace treaty signing and made it clear to Vaatu that he was going to be in for severe punishment when they got back. Sadly, when he let everyone know what he was after it exposed the existence of the egg which is something that was going to be a major pain for me in the future. It had already been proven to be a pain when Chief Nigren offered to buy it from me and continued to try to do so through the entire night until me and Blanca went home.
Now I was standing at the dock watching the ships of the two visiting tribes slowly disappear into the distance as I smiled knowing this time was something I'd been looking forward to as they would no longer be a headache. This means I can get back to working on my projects and get to checking out the two lenses I found in the cave under the nightfury egg. I'd been so busy working on how to deal with the visitors I hadn't had the chance to check them out but now that the visiting chiefs were no longer a problem I could check them out and relax a bit. Sadly, I wouldn't be able to relax by flying Toothless as he was guarding the egg more closely after what happened last night with Vaatu's attempt but hey I couldn't blame him. All I could do now was relax and enjoy working on my projects, checking out the lenses, playing with my animals and dragons, tending to the island and of course spending time with Blanca and Astrid.
AN: I know it's not very exciting but I don't have that many ideas for archipelago chapters and as for how the egg was able to survive so long, that will be explained in the next chapter. Also, something else for you all to look forward to in the next chapter is you will be seeing what's on the lenses and another thing you've all been waiting for but I won't spoil it. To be honest with you all I just hope I survive long enough to write it as things have pretty much gone to hell here in South Africa and if you want to know what I mean, look it up. By the way sorry for the confusion on the double post last time but to be clear it was not an automaton list I added, it was a list of Hiccups gifts from the gods that just got put in before it by accident so sorry about that. Now onto the questions.

Sorry but it's back to Africa for the next adventure and yes one of his wives shall be an amazon.
MANALO:
I have plans for Hiccup using his Chi but not like that and not till later and I will think about Hiccup learning how to make magical weapons.
Guest:
I will consider these ideas.
Guest:
I have never heard of Genshin Impact but I have considered giving Hiccup elemental abilities but every time I think of something he can already do it with his weapons or prosthetic.
Oaris:
No Hiccup will not have a relationship with a man or his wives with other women as I may have nothing against Gays I prefer not to write about them.
Rpglady76:
His god given vault already has a section for those things but Hiccup hasn't been able to access it yet.
With that said, have a nice day and remember to stay safe people and if you have any requests for places you want to see Hiccup go after the next two adventures let me know and I'll see what I can do.
