( In the past, when Saga's ten )

Saga was following Gobber to Gothi's hut and they went inside to see an ill looking woman that looked exactly like Saga, laying on a bed with Gothi by her side. Gothi stepped aside as the little girl ran to her mother with a smile on her face.

Saga: Mommy!

Saga's mother: ( to Saga with a weak smile: ) Hello, my little star...

Gobber walked to Gothi with a worried expression.

Gobber: ( to Gothi: ) Any good news, Gothi?

Gothi sadly shook her head and she had Gobber follow her outside, leaving Saga alone with her mother.

Saga's mother: ( To Saga, with a sad smile as she was holding back tears: ) Star... I'm... I'm going to be going away for awhile, but we'll see each other again one day...

Saga: ( with a confused expression: ) Where are you going, Mommy?

Saga's mother: ( with tears in her eyes: ) I'm going to be going to Valhalla...

Saga: ( with a sad expression: ) Are you going to be okay there?

Saga's mother: ( weakly chuckles with a smile ) Of course, my dear. And I have faith that you will be okay at the hands of the people of Berk. But first, I have something for you...

Saga's mother weakly pulls something from under her blanket and puts it in her daughter's hands. Saga looks at what her mother placed in her hands to see that it was some kind of game piece.

Saga's mother: It belonged to your father. It's the Viking Chief piece of his favorite game, Maces and Talons. He would play it for hours. ( Weakly chuckles at the memory with a sad smile before she started coughing )

Saga looked at her mother with worry, but once her mother's coughing had stopped, her mother gently caress her daughter's cheek with one hand and looked at her with tired eyes and a sad smile.

Saga's mother: Hold onto it for me, my Star. And never forget about the kindness in your heart...

Saga: I won't Mommy...

Saga's mother then slowly closed her eyes and slowly became limp, causing tears to fall down Saga's face.

Saga: Mommy? Mommy!

( Time Skip to the funeral )

Saga stood alone in the far back of the crowd with the Viking Chief piece in her hands as they set her mother's boat to a blaze. No one tried to approach the girl or tried to offer any comfort as the girl had a sad smile on her face through the whole funeral.
