Chapter Text
Seeking Help
We once again revisit the mysterious, furthermore enchanting Dragon Kingdom. In case you are brand-new to this realm, the words to express the Kingdom of the Draco Beings, Dragons who had evolved into human-like beings here how one would describe their kingdom.
What lay before them was what looked like an immense domain of some kind that seemed to go on for what seemed like infinity!
The mysterious, enthralling, fantastical-shaped buildings were not made of timber and rock. Rather out of phenomenal elements they'd never seen before. It was like they made up of a fusion of gemstones, alloys, and, finally, rich multicolored glass.
Furthermore, it looked like this immense sovereignty was running fully powered on a greater dynamism ever known to man. Like these people had a much greater understanding to use the elements in a far more advanced way and possibly could even use some mystical arts as well to power this gorgeous city!
If you could stop ogling at the city long enough, you'd see the native world was just as attention-getting! The heavens above were like endless flaming dragon fire, and in five-minute intervals, there be an explosion of rainbow colors with plasmablasts with lightning bolts playing connect the dots.
Moreover, the vegetation below the blazing heavens? It was louder and larger than life! They have never seen such diverse gigantic flowering plant life or abnormal trees in neon hues that all were radiating in the darkness! What is more, all of it seemed to be speaking as well as vocalizing as if they truly had a voice that couldn't be suppressed!
They're just as extraordinary in the arrangement, variety, and coloring as the rest of this world within a gigantic wall made of crystallized dragon bones covered in thick ice from a Bewilderbeast.
And all then your eyes fell on what was a glorious and magnificent palace right out a fairy tale dream. You could only describe it as the picture-perfect fairytale palace. But even from miles away from it, their eyes could see the emblem flying on all the royal purple and crimson red flags. It was the symbol of the Night Fury.
A year ago, a war that had lasted 1000 years separating the Humans and Draco Beings almost slaughtered everything and everyone. However, thanks to the heavenly intervention of the Gods White King and Silver Queen and the three Saviors Hiccup, Boden, and Una Haddock, everyone was now living in peace and harmony inside the kingdom unitedly and in the process of building a greater kingdom for both species.
After the war ended a year ago, they'd play first a grand ball, and then significant developments had transpired following the grand ball, which had been one hell of a party.
King Toothless had announced after Grand Ball the Kingdom would commence the process of rebuilding to commemorate the end of the war and a brand-new era of peace and harmony.
He'd then requested that Derda, the greatest designer in all the land and all who worked for her fashion for the humans ravishing and fabulous brand-new clothes as an act of good faith and goodwill to their new friends that they'd share their home with. As well as the Guild Master Windblade and his wife Beauty to work with the Guilds to find them work within the Guilds.
Plus of his family on the Council that they allow the three leaders of the humans to be allowed on the Council so they'd be fairly represented from now on. Hence, everyone had a voice in the kingdom and could truly flourish for one and all. Now and all future generations would be heard, and it would only work out better in the long run for sure.
All which everyone had agreed to and everyone set about to do as the king ordered quickly and swiftly as possible, which everyone had done their very best to carry out in this past year's time.
Queen Moon Shadow also had had requests of her own she'd wished to see achieved. The children of humans are permitted to attend classes with the palace children and learn from Wiseman Soulwings. She strongly believed that all children, whether they be human or Draco Being, deserved to have a proper education and reached their fullest potential and never had their dreams denied to them ever again.
That there was also a small region of the Kingdom granted to the humans just for them to live and make their own, which had been carried out as she had requested, so both her wishes had come to fruition. Her heart had been filled with great happiness to see both those wishes come true and see the great satisfaction and morality coming from them.
However, what was most essential for everyone was to remember from now on from that day forth was this.
There would be no more racism, discrimination, or hate of any kind. They wouldn't tolerate prejudice or bigotry. Everyone was to be treated fairly and equally with respect and kindness no matter their background or if they were Draco Being or Human or anything else.
They were all equal, and all deserved the same rights and privileges no matter what. If not shown that respect or courtesy, they'd face the King and Queen and some serious punishment.
They're now truly gonna evolve and not let stupidity rule over them. It was truly time to put the past behind them and allow them to be truly Transformed and Enlightened as the Haddocks had taught them. In all shapes and forms.
Thus, it began the new era as everyone gradually began to talk and work together to reconstruct the Dragon Kingdom into a stronger and true paradise this time around for one and all.
To completely strive to achieve this concept, the two elite teams of the humans known as the Dragon Riders and Soul Riders had become the personal proteges of the Elite Royal Guards and the second-best in the Royal Guards.
Each of them had become bonded in an almost sibling-like relationship that transcended mere teacher and student as they worked side-by-side with the royal guard at the palace to help defend the royal family and also their adopted siblings, who now spent their days with the palace children.
All the palace children spent their mornings in school with Wiseman Soulwings and their afternoons with various tutors from throughout the Kingdom, both Draco Beings and Humans, to acquire as many arts and skills as possible so they'd admittedly be able to lead the next generation to the best possible bright future.
Even Heather and her brother Dagur had found their place in this brand-new world of both humans and Draco Beings living side by side as training instructors for the royal guards and new soldiers.
Though some might challenge their training methods, the Captain of the Guard entirely supported their efforts when it came to how they trained the guard. He said he found it a most effective way to get the job done.
They're not the toughest, most grueling, and deadliest warriors for nothing. You didn't just break a sweat with them. You sweated bloody tears with them because their training was the most intense you could ever be put through.
It was extremely demanding, rigorous, and again hardcore and anything but easy. They demanded almost perfection as they put everyone through their complex obstacle courses, training sessions, and weapons classes, and that had again started before the crack of dawn at five a.m.
Training with them started with a five-mile run, climbing up and down the Great Hall's stairs 10 times. Which was then followed by sit-ups, crunches, and push-ups, and that was just warming up. After spending two and a half hours warming up, then came the next part of the training.
To teach their warriors balance, they took them to the bay and had them stand on a boat while they rocked it till they didn't fall over. Later they had to learn to dodge by having hard rotten food thrown at them.
After that came learning to fight devoid of their senses, which meant being blindfolded and with their ears plugged. Then they tie up an arm or leg to show what happened if one of your body parts failed you.
Next, after you went through all that came learning to use all weapons till you could use them perfectly and hit your mark every time, even in the dark, be ambidextrous, and uses your opponents' weakness against them. Furthermore, she also realizes a fight avoided was a fight won. Moreover, even with all that training, you still had to go through some extremely grueling races and challenging obstacle courses that were never the same two times in a row.
For the first six months, things seemed to be going smoothly, and all was well. Consequently, one person made a serious decision about themselves and what direction their life would go from here.
Deadly Siren, who had nearly caused the genocide of both species due to the fact she'd become an atheist because of being in a concentration camp as a child and lost her faith, felt now more than ever with peace going on the time had truly come to reacquire her faith altogether.
She'd been discussing for the past six months with the head of the Dragon Kingdom Church, Sister Pearl, about going on a Journey of Spiritual Rebirth and asking her when to do this and how she should do this.
'We've had peace for six months, and I feel the children will be safe without me. I feel I'm also ready to seek out White King and Silver Queen and find what I lost as a child. To actually find my soul anew. What do you think, Sister Pearl?" the Night Fury gladiatorial female asked the Monstrous Nightmare Nun.
"I've told you before, Deadly Siren, that only you can judge when you're ready to face the Father and Mother. Although this a journey that you must leave behind your old self to seek your new self.
Therefore, you can't take any weaponry or things of the past you wish to purify yourself from. If you hope to become closer to your Father and Mother and regain your faith, you must journey with nothing.
You must go on your own to the Sanctum of White King and Silver Queen. You must spend six months in absolute solitude if you wish to be reborn. Listen to them and find what you seek.
Take nothing with you and listen to the world around you. That's what you must do."
"Do you think I should leave tomorrow? It would mark the six months since I nearly annihilated everyone."
"If you seek sanctification, forgiveness, a chance to reform, and to regain your faith, I say this is the best time. Though let King Toothless know you're leaving. You must leave at the exact moment of sunrise to begin your pilgrimage and remember. You can't return till six more months have passed. Understood?"
"Yes, thank you, Sister Pearl."
It was a week after Deadly Siren had left to begin her spiritual rebirth that problems started to strike the Dragon Kingdom.
The Second Guard was sent to Madam Dedra Dress Shop to investigate a case of destruction, which turned out to be a great deal more.
She revealed how for the past 3 months, she and her apprentices, both human and Draco Beings, had been hard at work doing the matrimonial wear for Admiral Thornado's younger sister Stormy's upcoming wedding to one of Thornado's officers.
They're just about to work on the bridesmaids' gowns, which Stormy asserted all four would be human girls. She was due to bring the girls of her choosing to the workshop at four that afternoon for a fitting, but that wasn't gonna happen now, given what had taken place.
The shop and all the wedding clothes had been entirely trashed, and a terrible, ominous, furthermore discriminatory message inscribed in bright red blood proclaimed this was the work of some organization calling themselves The Knights of the Wing.
Not sure what make of it or who the Knights were, they left the Zipplebacks twins Ruby and Jade with the human twin sisters Erica and Eira to stand behind for a more thorough investigation to protect the people of the shop in case the perpetrators came back.
Then, less than a month later, all the guilds were targeted by the same terrorist society who plundered all the goods and spoiled the food. There was so much violence and destruction again, two Draco Beings and Humans were left behind to analyze and defend. This time Skyfire and Earth Mother and Elof and Leif.
People weren't panicking just yet. Suddenly two months to the day after the initial attack, and energy building complex was obliterated. Several people were sent to the hospital were critical wounds leaving half the kingdom and all the humans without power, and now they literally were starting to panic.
This time, Skeleton Key and Earth Digger and their humans Torben and Tue were left to take care of this one as the Nadder sisters and their humans' sisters Ase and Asta were called before the Captain of the Guard were called forth to attempt to explain why the situation was getting this bad.
"Tell me, how is it three months have passed and we still are no closer to finding these Knights? Or finding out who they are or what they want?! Or then seeing severe property damage and several people injured?!" he roared powerfully and furiously at the four ladies before him.
They all looked down at their feet for a few moments, not wanting or sure what to say. Then took a few big gulps of air and tried to speak what they could to soothe his anger.
"We're not sure, sir. We've had our best people do severe and thorough investigations through each crime scene. However, they've left no evidence behind. And we've not had any leads at all." Amber informed him apprehensively, not quite meeting her Captain's eye.
"Our best profiles, code breakers, and all kinds of people are putting all they have and then some to try and solve what little clues we do have, Captain. All we've come up with this is likely some type of terrorist group or hate group.
We cannot determine if it is made up of humans or Draco Beings or both. All we can determine if they despise the idea of the two races living together and seem intent on causing as much mayhem as possible." Amethyst continued with what they did know. She, too, was looking very nervous as they really didn't have much to go on.
"They seemed to be playing both sides to keep up the confusion, but we don't believe terrorism or vandalism is their only agenda. We think this is the only tip of what they plan to do. They have got a greater agenda and given they blew up the power plant. They may be seeking to do murder." Ase admitted their fears. She especially was frightened as she was thinking, was this incendiary group gonna make the Draco Beings despise humans again?
"We do suggest you double patrols and put extra protection around the human's settlement as they're few humans then Draco Beings, and we don't have as much ability to protect ourselves as you, Draco Beings, do." Asta courageously put in, although her voice was quivering as she stated her recommendation to the captain.
"I respect your recommendations, and I'll carry them out immediately. I'll also tell the Night Terrors and Glistening Mistbreaths to be extra vigilant on the wall. To report everything, no matter how insignificant it may seem to their superiors."
"Understood."
"You four get to the human village and stay there till more guards arrive."
"Understood"
"Dismissed"
However, this truly was only the beginning of the storm. The Knights of the Wing were silent but clever. They found a way to get their message out and try to recruit more members to their ambiguous club.
For the next several months, more acts of terrorism went on, along with several assassination attempts on high-ranking officials. At the same time, untraceable radio messages and fliers were dropped all about joining the Knights.
It was six months of pure terror after six months of peace. Then the worst of the worst happened. Someone from these strange Knights attempts to take the Queen's life!
Queen Moon Shadow had been traveling through the kingdom with minimal protection. In fact, the only guards she had with her at the time were Stormfly and her human protege, a girl named Astrid.
She traveled to the public school for the kingdom's children to bring them extra supplies from the palace.
The Queen hadn't taken any form of royal transport. She had insisted on walking with guards pulling behind them the supplies.
She had just reached the school and was about to greet the school teacher when a whizzing sound was heard. Luckily both Astrid and Stormfly had quick reflexes and activated new energy shields. Their hard work and training made them able to respond accordingly and protect the queen quite effectively from the threat.
"You stay with the queen! I'm going after those bastards!" yelled Astrid as she caught a glimpse of someone in black and took off running before anyone could stop her.
She was easily the most physically fit of all the Dragon Riders and the greatest warrior among them. And it was a merry chase after the assailant who seemed to know every trick in the book to stop her, but Astrid refused to give up. She was the kind of girl who never gave up and never gave in and would keep going until she won no matter what.
Eventually, she had the figure dressed in black cornered in a back alley. She looked at the mysterious figure and realized how he was dressed. She couldn't even be sure if it was a he, nor could be sure what race he was. Human or Draco Being.
All she knew for certain was it was someone who was between 5'7 and 6'1, lean, dressed in a form-fitting black outfit made from some type of material she couldn't identify. They'd like a small arsenal on their belt and wore a mask that was grotesque as a mockery to both humans and dragons. On their chest was an emblem of a pair of black wings. Not the wings of dragons, but more like angelic but still black as night.
"Hold it right there, Mister! You're coming with me!" she yelled in a commanding way at him as she advanced towards him.
The man in black didn't speak at all. Instead, he reached for twin-long sword blades and began to fight her as she battled him with a battle-ax. It was surprisingly an equal match, but there was no way for either to get the upper hand in such a confined space.
The assailant was able to take his blades and use them to wrench her ax out of her hands and toss it far out of reach and place one blade up against her throat. Astrid was afraid at that moment though she tried not to show it.
She waited for death to come, but the person instead took a step away, reached into their belt, and took out a small glass vial. They poured a single drop of whatever liquid was inside, and in instant black flames engulfed them to which Astrid had to shield her eyes, and when the flames died, the mysterious person was gone.
Knowing she was about to be reprimanded, she had to make sure the Queen was alright. When she got back, Queen Moon Shadow was recovering and had not been injured. It was a close call.
From what Stormfly had picked up that the assailant been aiming to kill with Dragonbane. A plant that was lethal to dragons in the past and still lethal to them even now as Draco Beings.
It was time to really talk to the King about this. When they got back to the palace, it wasn't surprising to find King Toothless up to his neck with all the terror of his people.
King Toothless was by far a very handsome Draco Being. His jet black hair appeared short at first glance until you saw that it was really kept in an extremely long ponytail that reached almost the ground.
His royal outfit consists of royal purple armor and crimson jewels and a silk cape with a large sword attached to his hip. On his chest was the emblem of the Night Fury.
As for what, he still had dragon-like? His eyes were still, of course, the same color, and he still could only smile by retracting his teeth, which again was how he got his name.
Queen Moon Shadow, on the other hand? She was a beautiful goddess of a Draco Being, to be perfectly honest!
Her skin was flawless alabaster with her eyes still sparkling silver with her snow-white crescent moon in the center of her forehead.
Her jet black scales from her dragon form were now two long jet black braided pigtails with Night Fury blossoms on each side of her head.
She sported magenta and silver accessories that accented her strapless indigo gown with matching fingerless gloves outstandingly.
Cinching her waist was a belt buckle made in the shape of a Night Fury, and it was also embroidered into the gown as well as her crescent moon.
But the fact they're a beautiful looking couple was neither here nor there at the moment. What was the point was the kingdom was at the moment under siege, and this threat couldn't be ignored any longer.
"Moon Shadow! My love! I heard about the attack! Are you alright, my beloved?!" he cried as he ran down from his throne to hold his wife.
"I'm none the worse for wear. I'm more concerned about our ten children. Tell me our children, alright?"
All the children's whereabouts are accounted for. They're safe and well. Though I've already ordered them to be placed under the remaining Elite Guards protection as Deadly Siren still isn't due back from her journey for another few weeks."
"Did these Knights really just wait for her to leave? Or is this a coincidence? I know we wanted Deadly Siren to change and get the spiritual help she needed, but now the children don't have their protector! And we've human children to worry about now as well!"
"I assure, Moon Shadow, I will not let anything happen to any one child. Not our families or anyone's human or Draco Being. Stardust and Nightrainbow's parents are even taking time away from their own duties to help watch over them as we speak."
"Well, that's some comfort, I'll admit. Are they at least in the safe room?"
"Where else would I put over 30 children?"
"Alright. We should have a Council Meeting and send it to Sister Pearl. Astrid says she saw who tried to kill me, and I think it's time we also considered asking White King and Silver Queen for help."
Twenty minutes, all the Council was assembled. It took a long time to get everyone settled, but we finally managed it.
"Okay, I understand we've had a lot of difficulty with this Knights of the Wing business! But let's not lose our heads right now!" King Toothless shouted.
"Well, what do you expect us to do then, Son?" demanded his father, the former king Lightning Storm.
"Lightning Storm! Don't use that tone with your son!" snapped his wife Luna Rose.
"But our daughter life was nearly taking! Shouldn't we be worried about our grandchildren?" demand angrily Strike Flyer.
"Please watch your own tone, my husband! Being angry won't help us think clearly!" snapped his wife, Star Lancer.
"As much as we're all upset about what's been going on, our mothers do have a point, big brother," Lady Moonlight Blaze pointed out.
"Yes, we can't let our negative emotions cloud our judgment now. And that's shocking coming from the hotheads of the family!" Lord Strike Fire realized what he was saying.
"How about we all take some deep breaths? You know, to try some type of relaxation skills or coping techniques before proceeding with the rest of this meeting?" Lady Star Dance suggested.
"If only to avoid making mistakes later," her husband Lord Jasper Sky agreed.
"Leave this to us to lead them." Lord Luka Star-spoke and turned to his wife Lady Star Gazer.
"Everyone deeply inhales, then exhale. Do this three times. Let it out slowly. Then clear your mind of all distractions. Focus on sunny thoughts. Listen to the pleasant sounds around you.
Think peace, quiet, tranquility. Think of calming things. Think of soothing colors and pleasant sounds. And then breath slow even breaths," as she guided them through mediation.
After doing this for 20 minutes, it helped calm everyone down enough to talk.
"Thank you for help, Lady Star Gazer," Second in command, Stardust thanked her, and she nodded in return.
"You're welcome, Stardust. After all, right now, yours and Adviser Nightrainbow's parents are protecting our children. We all need good heads on our shoulders if we are to make sure we all remain safe."
"Excellent point. Now let's talking about what's going on. Lord Cloudjumper, why don't you give us the overview?" suggested Nightrainbow to Cloudjumper.
"Alright, we all know for the first six months after the end of the war we had made excellent progress between our two races, and peace was looking ever so possible.
Then the first attack was at Madam Dedra's Shop, and it ruined the wedding clothes for Admiral Thornado's sister Stormy's wedding. Luckily we're able to salvage that, and the wedding went off without a hitch."
"But not without major help from the royal tailors, mind you." Queen Moon Shadow added.
"Yes, and from there, each event has escalated in both mayhem and terror. They attack at random. It seems their targets are both human and Draco Beings or any place that the two coexist in harmony.
They leave vast destruction in their wake and write hateful, vulgar messages and also are targeting high ranking officials and wanting to knock us off."
"We know they're not afraid to be bold if they attack during the daylight hours and yet are sneaky and clever enough not to be caught," Captain Safeguard pointed out.
"More to the point, they seemed to be determined to shake everyone's faith to the core as they are even attacking symbolic symbols of the church.
Skullette and Firefang have told me they've been called to several holy spots to remove evil energy or have found the people objects related to White King and Silver Queen smashed or destroyed in some manner," Sister Pearl notified the rest of the kingdom about the desecration of their religious artifacts.
"This madness can't be allowed to continue, my King! We thought after the war, and you allow us to live in the Kingdom, our people would be safe. Though if some terrorist or supremacy group is threatening us, what was the point of ending the war?" inquired Kustaa from the human's side of the long crystal table.
"I assure you I never intended for violence and a terrorist group or whatever these Knights of the Wing are to come here a year ago when we made our peace. Though I'm starting to think there more to this than just a radical group of renegades"
"My love?"
"This is bigger then we can imagine. There is no way they could've got this much done without some inside help. Think about where they've targeted and all they've done? There no way they're pulling this off without help."
"What are you suggesting, my king?" everyone asked at once.
"I'm saying we've traitors on our hand. People on the inside, possibly within this palace, even who have been alerting this group. How else could they've eluded us so well?"
"Traitors?! You're talking about a conspiracy?!"
"Yes, there is much more going on then just one hate group. However, I can't figure it out by myself. Tell me again, what was it that Astrid reported seeing of the person who nearly killed my wife?"
"Someone dressed in a strange black outfit with enough weapons to be a one-person army. They were an excellent fighter and used a strange black fire to escape," Captain Safeguard recited as he read the report.
"So that would suggest some inside help again. I'm afraid to trust right now is at a premium, and we are most likely dealing with one or more traitors. We've got a mystery on our hands."
"But how do you propose we solve it? Who can we trust to help us?" everyone wanted to know anxiously and looked around suspiciously at the same time.
"The very people who saved us a year ago. The three Saviors of White King and Silver Queen," he replied matter-of-factly.
"King Toothless, I don't mean to sound arrogant, but as head of the Draco Being Church, I'm afraid that only by the will of White King and Silver Queen can they bring the Saviors here in times of Crisis!" Sister Pearl exclaimed as she shot up from her seat, looking thunderstruck.
"Then can you ask them? You're head of the church, after all. Surely you of all people can contact the Father and Mother of all Dragonkind and ask them if the Saviors can return to us to help us once again?"
"I'm not sure I can as it wasn't written in Book for Wisdom and Foresight, but I'll go and attempt to do that right now. I'll return at sundown with the answer, my King."
Later that night Sister Pearl was alone in the sanctuary with the "Book of Wisdom and Foresight" open before her on the altar. She was attempting all she knew in a desperate attempt to seek their wisdom and will.
"Oh, Great Father and Mother of all Dragons! If you can hear me, please give me a sign! Our hour of need has returned once again! We once again require your wisdom and help!
Please, I beg you to come forth from the Realm you dwell to come forth to the Dragon Kingdom, and please do tell what we to do are? These Knights of Wing are trying to destroy the peace you bestowed upon us a year ago!
We wish to know if they three Savior of yours can return to restore what made us all whole.
Those born of human skin but have dragon souls. The ones are known as Hiccup, Boden Una! Can they come again? Can you tell us what to do? Please answer me! We are so desperate to know!"
Truly Sister Pearl didn't expect anything to happen, so she was rather startled when emerging from the embracing statute of the divine couple kissing where White King and Silver Queen themselves!
Standing before her with a white and silver halo around her was a tall man and woman. The man was at least 6'2 with spiky snow-white hair dressed in snow-white robes accented with ice blue jewelry that matched his eyes.
The woman was exceedingly captivating. She was tall with a fit, curvy body and well endowed. She had long silvery hair that bellowed in a non-existed wind. She was dressed in a very stylish dark blue dress accented with silver jewelry with a light blue silk scarf. She had silver markings under her intense blue eyes and wore a silver and blue cape.
"Oh, Great Father! Oh, Great Mother! Welcome back to the Dragon Kingdom!" she bowed ceremoniously, and they chuckled and helped her up.
"Pearl, you don't have to act like that," White King told her in a calm and soothing voice.
"You are the divine father, and Silver Queen is the divine mother. How else should I act?" she asked as she didn't dare look them in the eye.
"We're friends to all our children. You asked for our help. We've come so you can look at us when we are speaking. So come oh daughter of ours, what do you need our help with?" asked Silver Queen thoughtfully.
Therefore, Sister Pearl acquainted her god and his wife what exactly been transpiring in the past year and why King Toothless wanted to know if they could bring back the Saviors.
For a moment, the divine couple was silent as they seem to be speaking to each other with their eyes before nodding.
"Yes, the three saviors shall return here once more to save the Dragon Kingdom," White King started to say.
"Oh, thank you so much! I'll go tell the King..." as she started to run off, but her wrist was caught by Silver Queen and made her turn around.
"Wait a moment. We must warn you of something."
"Warn me of what?" Sister Pearl asked in bewilderment.
"The three saviors have gone through...changes. They'll be...different. Not as you remember them. Just be warned, they aren't the same in some ways as who you met a year ago."
"I don't understand. Are they still the saviors or not?" Sister Pearl was still frustrated by not realizing what her god and his gorgeous wife were attempting to say without saying it.
"Yes, they are still Hiccup, Boden, and Una Haddock. Yes, they are of human flesh with dragon souls. And yes, they are the saviors you seek," White King confirmed with a nod.
"So how can they be different from a year ago?" the Head of the Dragon Kingdom Church asked in puzzlement, not realizing a simple truth that was escaping her mind.
"We can't exactly explain but just know they went through many changes. Changes you'll not understand till they come here. So please be patient with them. Just know they are the same and different at the same time," Silver Queen explained cryptically. Her face was very motherly and serene at the moment.
She seemed to be wanting to say what she meant but also wanting them to be surprised. Or she really couldn't explain what she meant. Sister Pearl couldn't tell what it was. Either way, she had an obligation to her King to inform him that they could get the help they sought.
"Okay, I'll try to explain this to King Toothless. Thank you," she bowed again to the heavenly couple.
"We'll be watching over all of you as this crisis plays out and intervening if our presence is truly needed, for now, good luck." and with that, the divine couple left.
Sister Pearl delivered the message to the King, who was then only left with the predicament of bringing Hiccup, Boden, and Una back to the Dragon Kingdom.
This he left to his mystics Azurewings and her daughter Cloudwings. It took combining some science plus magic; however, they used an ancient spell then fused that with the power of electromagnetism. They're able to open a portal they would find the three savories in their Realm and bring them to the Dragon Kingdom.
They just wouldn't be prepared for what they got when they came through the portal, was all. Not at all.
