oops stayed up all night reading this but it was totally worth it this is amazing

Most of the characters were fine. Astrid was, however, pretty OOC.

Hi! Are you aware that a person on tumblr has created a religion based on this fanfiction? What are your thoughts?

CH 16 So Used to be a DRAGON POWERFUL MAGICIAN WARRIOR , Now to The FRAIL HUMAN BODY OF THE INVENTOR . Even trained to be stronger , Faster more AGILE , STILL THE DRAGON'S HAVE THE EDGE THAN HUMANS . Though Hicup's inventions could make a fearsome things . Like dangerous knights. And lots of Draconese to Relearn . Or , Draconise himself back .As he was used to , Especially by the Qeen's influence.

I just love this fanfic. The history was great, the characters are awesome, and even make me want to watch the whole movie again. The quality of the storywriting and character developtment are very good. The only "problem" is that the chapters are very long, that's more like something I don't like, more than a problem to the story itself. If you enjoyed the movie, this story its a must watch. Thank you Rift-Raft, for the amazing experience you gave us.

Just found this fic, absolutely loving it so far!

I love this story! Beautiful writing, but I have to say, Toothless *really* gets on my nerves in this. Which is really strange and unfortunate as he is normally one of my favourites. I'm actually finding myself wanting him to get killed off in this which is very unusual. For a dragon he is just a bit of an asshole

hey rift raft just wanted to say i love your work and I would love to do some art with you for your fanfictions, contact me on furry amino

Congratulations. This story is fantastic in every sense of the word. I’m halfway there and you’ve done so well on making my empires ja bounce all around in such a manner no other fanfiction has ever done. I had to stop and review It right here right now cause that last scene was such an amazing scene in every aspect of the word. Congratulations.

Ok finaly got to the bottom of this chapter "Again" just to make my review of the whole story... (I did Pm/Dm you my full review as I dont think you will see my one in the now 1,202 reviews.

A timeless classic. I loved this so much. Thank you for writing it

Just really getting into the HTTYD fanfics, and I gotta say, this was an amazing story. Makes me kinda sad the Hiccup had to turn back Human, seeing as how I really liked the whole him turning into a dragon thing. But anyways, I’m starting the next story right away, and excited to see how things go there.

the whole neighborhood hears me scream:YAAY! DA SEQUAL IS HERE!

im going to be honest I both loved and hated this story although it was more the plot devices and character representation that I didn't like. The plot was well thought out, the struggles felt real and the angst wasn't forced but some of the characters were portrayed horribly. Astrids character was ruthless and everyone freaks over the smallest of things just because Hiccups a dragon. I mean if someone turned into a dragon that you knew and was starving for a week its more than understandable that they try to find food

so... I decided to re-read this story... I am not sure why on earth I would do that... this story broke me the first time... It was almost perfect... reading it as it was coming out made it even worse... the cliffhangers...
the way you shown changes that both of them went trough... how learning such things (not only he became dragon... he also learned that they are inteligent and have complex culture) changed the very way he was thinking...
I simply Loved this story!

how much happened just due to bad luck and terrible timing of circumstances... it made me want to scream... It was frustrating... but not in the " reader frustrated at story/author" way, but rather "the characrers frustration infecting the reader" and "frustration about the uneasiness of reality"... this chapter... this one was the first that show this... one that made me want to groan... even "growl"!
So I decided it is good place to write a review at. after now it only goes more intense... af first... just as Astrid, I was surprised that he didn't try to explain himself... that he didnt write on ground (While he did think of it late... I didnt know it at the time) that he was just hungry. and he knew they would just chase hin out and that's why he stole... it would be so much like Hiccup form beggining of the first movie... "Awkward, confused explanations and excuses. "

but then... he spent last days stressed... and in cimpany of someone with completly different way of thinking... not to mention that he IS physically a dragon (mostly, at least)
No wonder he reacred this way... It was then I realised this story had even bigger potential than I thought (oh boy... even THAT was underestimation to what this story would have)

Only issue was heavy use of VERY modern, meme-born phrases (thre worst of them till now was "captain obvious")
while I am NOT a purist and I will accept stuff like medieval glasses and some more modern terms (most names for items and building from past times are actually quite recently created. in past they had many names or were just described. ) but for some reason these things as memes and modern "internet" phrases annoy me in fantasy and similar generes.

If you even still read those... and somehow got this far... thank you for this story... it will stay in my heart for Eternity .

Just one queation... what are the reading points for "unheard hispers" If I remember correctly, some of these were made during main story and it was easy to followmas it was comming out.. but I am not sure when should i read it now...
