Protecting others in need of help and researching places where none go, despite being sixteen years old they were good at their job. Especially with Hiccup's presence around, being the prince of the Kingdom of Berk.

The Wild Herd are riding their horses on a dirt path through a forest, making their way to a village, Willowgrove. It was their next resting spot after traveling for two days, everyone getting tired of being in the same clothes and hungry. Though the twins are still being chaotic on their horses like always, nothing new from them.
After another hour or two, they arrived in the village. A peaceful lakeside village nestled between rolling hills and ancient willow groves, with trees circled around the village looking like a protected wall. The houses built from stone and timber with a network of wooden footbridges that cross waterways and weave through the village, the air smells of wildflowers that are across the village. With pedestrians moving around with their day like always.
The group sighed in relief at finding a village to finally rest at, the group decided to seperate. Astrid and Hiccup went to go find a place for the group and their horses to stay, Fishlegs was already trying to find a library with Meatlug following. Snotlout rode Hookfang through the village trying to find someone to brag to. Which left Guest and the twins with their horses since nobody trusted the twins alone.
