I'm not sure what the whole thing about this new series called Dragons: The Nine Realms is, but it looks to me that the story takes place in the present day. Almost like this story nearly a thousand years into the future, but completely different.
Whelp, I guess Dreamworks beat me with the concept of a modern httyd 4 story. Imma go cry in my bed. :'3
((BUT HEY! I BEAT THEM WITH THE COMPLETION DATE OF THIS STORY ALMOST LAST YEAR WHEN THEY ANNOUNCED THEIR SERIES TEASER TWO DAYS AGO! SO I STILL WIN THE COMPETITION OF WHO CREATED THE FIRST CONCEPT OF HTTYD 4!!! HA!!! >:D ))
