The jewel of bleln (a httyd Snotlout love story)

Ch 12

The next morning I ran to gobbers shop. I had sent shadowfang ahead of me so I had an excuse to be there. "Ah Eira I was wondering if you were coming by sooner or later. You dragon has taken a liking to my roof." Gobber said gesturing to were shadowfangs tail dangled as his wings were extended out sunning himself. "He does that. Gobber could you tell me about my mom? I get the feeling Stoic would get upset if I asked." I said softly. "Course! Your mother valka was one of the beautiful and smartest women on berk so naturally she was wooed by the chiefs son your father. She was calm though and much like your brother sought to end the fighting between us and the dragons. In her early years she was friends with a girl named Toril. Ah they were quite a team those two. Your mother actually helped Toril win over spitelout. Yup Snotlout s mother and yours were best of friends. Close as sisters too. But not long after you and your mother were taken Toril got sick and passed soon after. Gothie could do nothing but ease her pain and help watch little Snotlout who was only a little more than a year old. I recon that is why he is so temperamental as he was raised mainly by his father." Gobber said happily telling me everything. It made me realize that Snotlout was judged too hard by his peers and his father. It seemed that while he was like his father he had to hide his deeper feelings. "Thanks Gobber! I think I hear Stoic so I gotta run now!" I said running off. Shadow fang remained on Gobber a roof for now happily basking in the sunlight.
