How to Train Your Dragon: Legend of the Lost Rider

Summary:

**Hiccup wasn't the first dragon rider?**

When invited to the island of the Defenders of the Wing to celebrate a year of being allies, Hiccup and the riders learn of the tale of the lost rider. It was a story of the first viking tribe and a daughter of a chief: Talia, a young woman who was destined for greatness.

However, when she turned to peace, her fate took an unfortunate turn.

Some say that the gods protected her, placing Talia into a slumber within the clouds until someone able to sail both wind and sea could awaken her.

Hiccup knows she's out there, and he won't stop until he finds her and sees her safe return.

Notes:

Hello! Thank you so much for clicking and expressing interest in my story. This is a Race to the Edge AU of the franchise How to Train Your Dragon. While this may not come out all at once, I will do my best to make it captivating and enjoyable.

**ALSO**, this story is designed to have background music! If you want to make this experience more immersive, the story chapters what songs to listen to, when to switch to the next song, and the next "scene". If you finish the song before the "scene", then just repeat the song! You should be able to find all of these songs on YouTube :)

I really hope you guys enjoy and I'd love to hear your feedback in the comments!

Chapter Text

This is Dragon’s Edge.

I know, not exactly what you were expecting for a beginning right? Well, times are changing. It’s been a few years since the gang and I moved to our new home.

Things have been… different. Some good things, some bad.

Fishlegs has recently dedicated himself to learning about other viking cultures. Snotlout decided to try mutton throwing for a sport.

Yes, that is an actual thing.

As for the twins, they’re as crazy as ever. And Astrid and I… eh.

But one thing that never changes is our love for dragons, and our love for sharing stories.

Some stories are moments of pain and endurance. Others are inside jokes, like Snotlout setting himself on fire.

But others are legends, stories from our ancestors passed down for generations, leaving us to continue on with their message.

Most people call them fictional stories. You know, to keep children behaving and following tradition.

I used to think the same thing.
