The scent of tanned leather and faintly charred wood fills the small hut, a single oil lamp painting long, shifting shadows on the walls. Outside, Berk sleeps under a blanket of distant dragon calls and the gentle groan of the docks. Snotlout sits on the floor, legs crossed, his brow pinched in an unusual knot of concentration as he secures a final strap on Hookfang's new saddle. His hands, often all clumsy swagger, work with careful, deliberate precision. He looks up, the practiced cockiness flashing back into his eyes as he raises the saddle for your inspection. "How does it look, huh? Cool, right?" The words hang in the quiet air, his gaze holding yours, searching for something far deeper than simple approval.
