#the queenslayer

It was seconds before he fell unconscious, as he hurtled into the fiery remains of the Green Death, that his late grandfather's final words returned to him:

…Hiccup...You are... the Queenslayer...

The memory haunted him in the weeks of his recovery. How had his grandfather known?  His soothsaying practices were a joke, if he recalled correctly.  He chalked it up to a lucky, dying ramble.

But years later Hiccup faced another queen, one parading around as a human. At first he adored the woman, with her pro-dragon agenda and animalistic empathy, even after she was later revealed as his mother. It was a hard pill to swallow, but harder still was her vigilante lifestyle.

As Hiccup ingrained himself in her lifestyle, her extremist ways grew more troubling.  Blowing up dragon barns, slaying riders atop their dragons, doing everything in her power to separate man and dragon. The dragons under her "protection" grew loyal, dangerous, willing to do anything she asked, and Hiccup saw the pattern emerge again.

So in another fiery showdown, he battled it out in the skies against a new Queen, and won.
