    Summary

    Two weeks after the battle of the hotel, Charlie and the others are still reeling from their losses and changes. Alastor hasn’t returned, Pentious is gone, and there’s a whole new hotel to set up as they prepare for new Sinners in the program. And to make matters even stranger, an unexpected person shows up at the hotel doors asking for sanctuary: Lilith, Queen of Hell, missing for seven years.

    Charlie is more than happy to give her mom a place to stay and hide after hearing the story of her kidnapping. But Lilith has other objectives in mind, and Charlie finds herself shoved into an empty pocket world made of literal nothingness for her own protection.

    Well, nearly empty. At least she knows where Alastor is, now.

    Summary

    He’d split a rock on his head as a child. He’d ripped a nadder’s head from its shoulders as a baby. He’d been made chief when his father died to dragons, and as chief he’d watched his Valka miscarry for years only to be snatched away by dragons from their only surviving child; and, nearing what should have been the end of his time as chief, his heir and son had gone missing, probably because of dragons too. And he’d survived that. The people of Berk were tough, worn and weathered and rooted down into the earth like the mountain against whose base they had settled.

    But Stoick wasn’t so certain anymore that they could survive much longer. Hiccup was gone, but the village still skirted disaster; Astrid was his heir, but the Berk she was inheriting was char and charcoal.

     

    After Hiccup went missing Stoick's certainty in victory against dragons disappeared too. A mysterious Dragon Master offers hope, but hope is a man with a Night Fury for a shadow and a power that brought the tyrant who last bore that title to his knees.

    Summary

    "Exile still seems the best option, Stoick..."

    Stoick should have known better. While he didn't know much about his son-especially now-he knew the boy was clever. It should have been no surprise when a guard burst into the Council Meeting and revealed that Hiccup had escaped the cell Stoick put him in...hours after the boy was revealed to have saddled a dragon.

    Hiccup is gone, and so is the beast.

    They search, but do not find him. Berk falls asleep one night and awakens in the Great Hall, where the torches come to life and cast an image of their isle on the wall, from which floats Hiccup's voice, years younger.

    AKA, Hiccup forfeited the final challenge, leaving Astrid with the right to kill the Nightmare. Story picks up in the Race to the Edge era, except Berk never learned the truth of dragons, no one knows how Hiccup really lost his leg, and stories of a hooded 'vigilante' riding a Night Fury have been long whispered...and Berk will see it all unfold.

    Stoick the Vast and Berk watch How to Train Your Dragon...and beyond.

    (Title from Dotan's 'Home')
