Sometimes 2012 and 2013 feel like a bygone era. I was still in college then. We also had a TV show on Cartoon Network that showed us dragons, adapting to life.

Riders of Berk was season one, and season two was called Defenders of Berk. It was meant to show the change in the status quo from peacetime to full-on war. Hiccup can tame dragons, and that makes him the most valuable Viking in the archipelago. It makes enemies interested, and potential allies suspicious.
