Somewhere in the sea...
A huge ship sails through the seas towards an unknown location, for what purpose? That is unknown even to the crew, but their Leader or master ordered it that way, they just obeyed.
And they were not the only ones, more ships accompanied them, and their leader had a navy that he controlled, many joined it with pleasure, others without a choice, and the majority were forced, but they all served him with the same loyalty.
His master is someone fearsome, not only because of the dominion he establishes through his army of warriors but also because of his army of beasts. Composed of Dragons.
All submitted to do his will.
Which they fulfill and demonstrate now by navigating to a course that they are unaware of.
While the men are busy with their occupations, his master is at the bow of the ship, his view ahead.
Searching for the Place.
Wondering what he will find when he arrives.
Not just a few months ago, he received something that he didn't understand how it came, he was on his ship when a pack of dragons that he had never seen before attacked, they seemed like they weren't from this world, but he still ordered his men to capture them.
Serious mistake.
The dragons responded hostilely, killing several of his men, escaping and capturing one, however upon capturing him they discovered that he was bringing something with him.
They didn't know what it was but it looked like some kind of container, this man wanted to know what it contained and when he did so he was surprised by what he found... there was evidence about a treasure very valuable to him and where he could find it, he just had to follow The ubication.
In the first instance, he wanted to verify everything and after three weeks he verified it, after much verification, if this was true, whoever gave him this had what he had most desired, then he would go to get it, whether in a good way or not, Well, the way the message was delivered to him showed that he didn't know who he was dealing with, but it was someone dangerous, a threat to him, he doesn't know that yet.
However, he will soon find out because he will soon find himself arriving at that place, one that he is seeing right now, a small but remote island.
?: Stay the course!... we are close, and we will arrive soon, I hope to get there soon.
Many nodded, while others shouted "Yes sir" to continue with his work, Drago looked at them with a smug face when he saw that everything was going the way he wanted.
- My lord Drago!
Now Drago who reacted upon hearing his name but did not turn to see him. He was one of the lookouts on the ships.
Drago: Report now.
- We are close to the coordinates but I fear that we have sighted a fleet that is on the island.
Drago looked in the direction of the island again and confirmed what the lookout said, there was indeed a fleet stationed near the island, he did not know if they belonged to whoever had summoned him or someone else.
Drago: I see... in that case prepare to attack, prepare my beasts and crossbows... I want to make sure to increase my number of ships and personnel if necessary...
The lookout lowered his head receiving the order - Yes, Master Drago.
He went to retire while Drago continued looking at the island, soon it would be time to see what was waiting for him there.
However, without him noticing, a hooded figure was observing him from the hidden skies.
...
?: So this is the island...
-Yes sir, we follow the coordinates as he told us.
?: Excellent, very good, it's time to go down to see who he sent for us.
?: Viggo!
The one now known as Viggo turned to see who had called him... meeting another bigger and burlier man, his brother: Ryker.
Viggo: What's happening, brother? You wouldn't come unless something happened.
Ryker nodded - We have company and I'm afraid it's not good...
Viggo looked at him intrigued. "What kind of company?"
Ryker: See for yourself - with a movement of his hand he told him to follow him to the stern of the ship, once there he showed him with a spyglass what was seen on the horizon, Viggo did so and was soon surprised to find himself with a large army approaching, trying to see the insignia, he knew who it belonged to but not what it came from.
Viggo: Without a doubt this is unexpected but it may be who he sent to bring us, still tell the men to prepare to leave quickly and prepare their weapons, it is better to do so in case of anything...
Ryker nodded knowing what he meant...
After this, both of them went down with several men from their flagship, while they entered the island, finding that there was an ancient fort in it which they entered because something told them that whoever called them would wait for them there.
...
As Drago was closer he saw the activity of the ships, they moved further away, the better for him, he liked to find resistance and appease it to his new acquisitions.
However he would worry about the main issue, upon reaching the beach he was able to disembark, seeing the same force you, without wasting time he and a few of his men to enter that place.
Although the fort was large, it was simple, because upon entering he found the main room where he met the owners of the first ships that arrived and whom he recognized by their clothes.
Drago: The Grimborn... but what are they doing here?
The two mentioned were surprised to see Drago here, they had seen his army but they did not expect him to be there, but what was this about? Had he called them?
The smallest one approached to understand the situation.
?: Drago Bludvist... It is very unexpected to see you here, tell me, are you the one who asked for our services?
Drago saw them confused, what? He didn't need that when he already had enough resources.
Drago: I don't hire anyone... others offer to serve me, so tell me Grimborn...
?: Viggo... Viggo Grimborn that's my name.
Drago: I'm not interested in your name, just tell me why the hell they summoned me to come here.
Viggo looked confused - We never did that, we came because a client contacted us about a job that paid seriously well.
Drago squinted his eyes to see if he was telling the truth and didn't know whether to believe it or not. "So if you guys didn't call me, who did?"
- Wow... but what do we have here?
The new voice intrigued everyone who came from above, so everyone raised their heads to find a man with receding gray hair, pale skin, light blue eyes, and a sharp chin. Him wearing leather armor, brown pants, grayish-brown boots, and a hooded jacket.
Drago, upon seeing him, recognized him, knowing well who he was.
Drago: Grimmel The Grisly... were you the one who brought us?
Now the one known as Grimmel saw them studying them with his eyes, he noticed Drago when he asked him if he summoned him. He didn't do it, but with that, he discovered that he didn't call him like the other guys who looked suspicious of his presence.
Grimmel: The job of bringing you here is not mine, I have come here because I was told that a Night Fury was seen here, something I consider impossible...
Grimmel began to look for traces of the same dragon that he mentioned, while the others saw him with great intrigue, everyone knew Grimmel, the murderer of the Night Furies, called him a divine curse or cause with effect, Grimmel was the one who led the Night Furies to edge of extinction.
Then footsteps began to be heard approaching, which caught the attention of everyone who would now join them.
A tall woman with black hair and strange clothing, with a cloak covering her, appeared at the entrance, looking at everyone carefully.
?: It's good to see that everyone has answered my call.
Drago was the first to ask - It was you who brought us here woman... for what purpose?
The stranger put her hands behind her and clenched her fists, then she sighed slowly, she had to remember who she was dealing with, she had to be patient.
?: That is something that you will soon discover, however you have to know that what I am going to offer you has what you have dreamed of and beyond - that caught the attention of all the hunters - but I will not lie to you, the path will not be easy, if you refuse then leave - you saw that no one has left - well then it's done... from now on you will serve a cause that will help change everything...
Ryker: Yes, well that's fine, but what are we going to gain?
? She looked at him mockingly. "Before that, you should first understand that there is a time for everything... I'm not surprised that with your stupidity in the face of those facts, you are your brother's slave."
Ryker saw her upset by what he said, he wasn't going to let her make fun of him like that but there was something about her that was strange, something that said she was dangerous, something that the others also noticed.
Grimmel: Who are you?
? She said, amused, "I have many names... some older than others... but they know me best by this one... Tiamat."
Viggo: Okay Lady Tiamat, tell us, why did she bring us here?
Tiamat smiled he was more aware than his brother, as was Grimmel who asked cautiously, even Drago showed more control when he saw the situation, he was certainly not wrong in summoning them for this mission.
Tiamat: Let me ask you... do you believe in gods?
The hunters saw her confused by her question, they didn't know what that question was about, of course, they believed, many or most of those present here believed in the Gods but what did that have to do with it?
Grimmel: We would appreciate it if you could tell us what that has to do with why you called us.
Tiamat smiled as she caught everyone's attention.
Tiamat: Let me explain something to you, a long, long time ago when man was beginning to walk was the beginning of a very great and powerful era... the primeval era - Tiamat saw them intrigued so she continued with her story - in this era the gods walked in their world as if nothing had happened, interacting with humans, however a war for power "I evoke the end of that era," he said with regret that last part.
Curious about these data, Viggo asked - I assume that the war caused the gods to leave this world to the point that that time is forgotten.
Tiamat looked at him. "You got it right, Viggo Grimborn... that was an agreement between all the gods to prevent a war similar to the one that happened from happening again... a terrible mistake," she said mockingly. "That only caused humans to be more misguided and more gullible - everyone stared at her, annoyed and confused, that she spoke of them like that as humans and insulted them like that and nothing more, and the fact that she did not include herself among them.
Drago: Yes, well that doesn't explain why you brought us here - he approached her threateningly - you made me waste my time woman... now tell me what you have to offer me before I decide to use you for other purposes.
Tiamat smiled mockingly at Drago's threat, which she said serenely. "To begin with, human." Drago felt a pain in his right wrist and when he looked, he saw with horror how Draconian claws were in place of Tiamat's hand. He looked at her in shock and saw that She continued with the same calmness - I'm not someone who should be taken lightly - she let him go and showed her hand to the others present who were surprised by that - and don't call me a woman either - she said with an irritated voice - that's an "I finish that I can't tolerate from you humans," he snorted, showing smoke when he did it, putting everyone else on alert.
Viggo was the brave one to ask - But what are you?
Tiamat saw him smiling - I am Tiamat a Draconian Celestial, daughter of the celestial Io and the lady and queen of the Evil Dragons.
Grimmel, Drago, and Viggo, upon hearing it, did not believe it, a goddess had presented herself to them, meaning that her story must be true and that her objectives and goals with them must mean something important.
Grimmerl: What do you want from us?
Tiamat saw him waiting for someone to ask that - It's simple, I would like your loyalty and cooperation - those present did not understand what she meant by that - you will see with what I told you, you have seen my disagreement with the celestials being in this world, I have the intention to correct that, this world needs a change, that is why I and an ally of mine have discussed how to do it...
Drago: And what do you need us to do?
Tiamat: I need you to act as my emissaries to find something... has anyone heard of the Wildbeasts? better known as the Alpha species of Dragons
Without a doubt that impacted everyone, that is a story among hunters, relating to the largest Dragon that could ever be found, a myth for many but something true for others, these were called crazy but there was someone who did not agree with that. .
Drago: Do you know where to find a King of Dragons? but how?
Tiamat saw him smiling slightly. "It is simple and is related to the story I told you... perhaps the first era was forgotten by humans, but it does not mean that there is evidence to confirm that it was true." She put her hand in her cloak and From it he took out a scroll - one of those tests is this - he opened the scroll and showed it to all the hunters - they call it the Eye of the Dragon, a Draconian article created to catalog all the species of dragons that have been present in the world.
Viggo: I know this piece, it has belonged to my family for generations, however, it was lost many years ago.
Tiamat gave him the scroll so they could see it better - Yes, that piece is useful to find one, if you feel confident in yourself Grimborn I allow you to recover your family legacy.
Viggo did not respond, but his brother answered for both of them to accept the task because Viggo saw the whole scenario and analyzed it, it seemed that they had just entered into unknown territory.
Tiamat: Well, however, that's only one - I went to look at Drago - but I can tell you that I know for sure where to find another Drago Bludvist...
Drago looked intrigued but then smiled maliciously when he saw how this was beginning to benefit him.
Drago: I accept the task, tell me where can I find it?
Tiamat smiled - Under the protection of your problem that is responsible for ruining the increase of your dragon army.
Drago, upon learning this, growled when he knew who he was referring to - The Rider of the Stormcutter.
Tiamat put her arms back - Exactly, "he" is taking care of him, he finds his hiding place and you will find him.
Drago smiled maliciously, without a doubt accepting this benefited him a lot.
Grimmel, who saw everything, did not understand how he fit into this. Tell me then, what is my role in this?
Tiamat looked at him now - It's simple... you come from the continent, you must know many warriors who are willing to join this cause.
Grimmel crossed his arms. "Yes, that's true, but what about what you sent me, about a Night Fury out there?"
Tiamat: Oh that... there is one and I'll give you its location. As long as you comply with what I asked of you.
Grimmel, knowing that, smiled at the challenge, one that he knew he would fulfill if, in the end, he got that alleged Night Fury who escaped being killed by him. Even so, he knew that he had to take care of himself, something told him that there was more than what they were telling them, and he would have to be careful.
Tiamat: Well that's all for the moment, follow these instructions and I promise you will be rewarded very well, I will leave now, but I will return when it is time to continue with the objective.
A pack of small dragons appeared and covered her completely to surprise everyone.
And without further ado he disappeared when the herd dissolved and began to escape to the entrance of the fort, leaving them all overwhelmed by everything that happened, that is how they began to retreat to soon begin their missions, the Grimborn being the last ones who followed. over there.
Viggo: However, all of this was as eye-opening as it was equally intriguing.
Ryker: And what is your point?
Viggo: I'm afraid brother that we have entered unknown territory even for me- that surprised Ryker, his brother would never say that- I will have to investigate more about all this, it is necessary if we want to make sure we are still alive at the end of all this.
...
Hidden place...
Upon returning to his chambers, Tiamat went to his special room to make contact with his ally and inform her of the new news.
When she approached the orb she waited to talk to him and when she did she was ready to report.
Tiamat: I have succeeded Loki. The emissaries have accepted the mission, they and their followers will take care of the matter.
Loki smiled with pleasure upon hearing that. "It's good to hear, I've been traveling around the lands in search of allies who are at odds with Odin and I've managed to find quite a few... in time we will have enough forces."
Tiamat: The board is coming together Loki, however, I have to say this, what happens if Odin starts to suspect this? I don't worry about Io because I know that he would never break the rule of coming to this world but Odin would. I would do it knowing what you're up to.
Loki: I don't think there's anything to worry about, lately he's been distracted by something, it's diverted a lot of his attention from that, at least what my spies in Asgard have told me.
Tiamat: Okay but what about Heimdall, he will know and he will tell Odin.
Loki knew that he was right, that was an issue that had to be solved - then measures would have to be taken as soon as possible.
He ended the call and in an instant proceeded to disappear into a fog to go to an exact location.
...
Asgard...
The place of Sanctuary of the Æsir, also known as the Nordic celestials, there is a great variety of characters here, from the Great Odin, their leader to others like Tyr, Freyja, Baldur, Njord, and several more but there is one who is the one who acts as guardian, Heimdall the celestial in charge of taking care of the great Bifrost, the ancient path of the Celestials to the human world, one of the many that exists but since it was established that humans and celestials could no longer interact, the entrance It was closed to the human world but you can still see what happens there.
Heimdall can see everything that is happening within himself, discovering things both good and bad, things that he should know and things that he should not.
Our main theme of this story is something that is beyond his reach to observe since these recent events as a consequence of that are cases that confuse him, preferring to ask Odin when the time comes.
Another occurrence has been the unusual activity of Tiamat in the human world, a Draconic celestial moving with a meaningless purpose.
Something is coming up but he doesn't know what.
Another case is Loki, going from one place to another and meeting with enemies of Odin and the Æsir, which in itself cannot be good, warning Odin is something he should have done when he realized it, but he could not because a force Above all, he has told him that he should not do it.
Heimdall: I hope I'm doing the right thing, something is wrong but I don't understand why I'm not allowed to communicate it.
Loki appeared behind him when he arrived and pulled out a dagger when he heard him say that.
Loki: I can tell you - Heimdall turned around but suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen, he looked down and witnessed how Loki buried a dagger in him - it's simple, it's the fact that my destiny is something that cannot be stopped, that will make me the ruler of Asgard.
After that, Loki left him there bleeding, smiled proudly for what he did, knowing that this would make him not speak, he proceeded to disappear, in the sight of a dying Heimdall, helpless for not having been able to do anything, regretting not being warned and only wishing. that someone can stop Loki before he commits his mission
He was about to close his eyes when he noticed someone running up to see what had happened to him.
do, after that, I closed my eyes hoping that this was not the end...
To be continued...
Hello everyone, how are you, here I bring you this new chapter where I bring you the activity of the "bad guys" team and the return of the celestials with the secret mission, without a doubt it has advanced, well, as I said, the board is arming, so we have to keep an eye on it, I just included the Hunters now, so we already have who Hiccup will meet in the future.
There is also the matter of Viggo, as an analyst as he is, he is always seeing what to do in his next move, he will be an enigma in the story regarding what I will do with him, I have some ideas and I will see which one I will put.
Anyway, I also want to say that I will take some time to pause my stories, I will do so to focus on the next 3 chapters of each story as they will be continuations in a row.
Anyway, I hope you like the story, so in the meantime, I will see you in the next chapters, and without further ado I say goodbye.
Thank you.
