Well damn. I think everyone got from the very first description that Soul Stealer were VERY NOT nice, but that is absolutely brutal. Is it actually a need for it to feed on the soul of other beings? Because if so, I think I just learned of the very first specie that really should not exist. Especially if it needs to feed at a pace even slightly similar to its other dragonic brethren. And what would count as having a soul? What are the exact consequences of having your soul eaten?
I definitely didn't need that kind of Nightmare Fuel right now, because this dragon brings some serious question here.

It's an interesting contrast to most of these kind of stories that Stoic is the dragon-related parent. And yet, it seems very natural, what with him being so at ease in the wild and knowledgeable of the various beasties out there.
Now, let's see how our fantastic duo will meet here! Let's hope there's no maiming going on this time around.

Alright! I just finished your story, (though I’m 5 freakin years late) and I just want to say even now your work inspires readers. You probably forgot about this website and is enjoying life, but (on the slim chance that you still check sometimes) Thank you!

This story is going on my favorite list (my mental list of stories that I believe are close to perfect
- there are some minor writing ‘hiccups’ that cut the flow of the piece but I have no doubt your writing skill has improved over the years (so no criticism)

Cheers!

Could you possibly create a version of this that won't have every chapter blocked by restrictions?

This was truly a phenomenal story.

We're off to see the Wizard, the wonderful Wizard of Oz

Dude, please you have gotta do a sequel. There is just no way you can drop this universe like this. Your writing is truly amazing and I really do hope you swing back around for a return.

Hey! First I'd just like to say this is the second or third time I've read this story, as I really enjoy reading it, it's quite good! I also know that it's an older one and don't know if you still check it, but if you're still writing fanfics there was just one thing I noticed that's slightly annoying: you say Hiccup is smiling (in various ways, like grinning or lips twisting up) a LOT. Sometimes it's even 3 times a paragraph, which is a little weird because normally you'd assume that if he was smiling, he'd keep smiling for a little bit. Right now it just seems as if you're making him change expression constantly and I just feel like there are other transitions or verbs you could use instead, so you don't repeat yourself as often. I'm able to overlook this because I absolutely LOVE the storyline, but doing this would bring your story from a 9 to a 10 in my eyes :)

Glad to be able to read this wonderful piece. Awesome idea. Awesome writing. Think it would be better to identify who is speaking sometimes. You describe Hiccup or Astrid by their hair mostly, making it difficult to know who you're talking about sometimes. Still good. Toothless is awesome. I love the humor and how much love it goes with Hiccup! Love the details. and Toothless and Hiccup are sound. I almost wish he has Toothless with him by law. haha. Looking forward to the sequel!

Hey! Awesome story! Are you planning on adding any more chapters? Maybe some Hiccstrid?That would be epic. Maybe a sequel? Even more so epic!

This was good and different from many other HTTAD! Awesome work! :)

I just had a quick look and it seems the sequel never eventuated, which is a shame.
Nevertheless I'm leaving this review to let you know how much I enjoyed reading this. It was very different to anything else I've read which was really interesting. I really loved your writing during the artistic scenes of Hiccup, I liked those scenes in particular.

Im going to give you a sugestion let someone else do the sequel please

This was surprisingly nice to read, given that I've never trusted modern AUs for HTTYD. I'm not sure if it's fav material, but it's still good.
I think it worked out nicely how everything was laid out, and the writing itself was very well done, but there are a few things that I think should have probably been covered better. I see now why this was placed in the Supernatural category, but I feel like I was introduced to the whole "this world has vampires and werewolves and 'magicians'" concept too late into the story - correct me I'm wrong and it was properly introduced better than "the bombers are werewolves". And are these creatures "normal" citizens with equal rights, but the Reserve was attacked by a band of outlaws? I also don't recall mention that the others had magical powers until near the end of the story. And seeing as they do, do all humans? Hiccup's mom? Or are the ones working at the Reserve not exactly human?
Just some questions that came up during my read.

LOL that is so sweet. Zalath actually came with him. I hope Hiccup gets to go back soon in the sequel so he can see Toothless.
Totally amazing turnout.
