Episode Title:
Defenders of the Wing Pt.1.Episode Description:
As the riders continuously sabotage the hunters' business, Viggo offers Hiccup a truce, dividing the archipelago in half to prevent further war between them. While looking it over, the riders believe Viggo is keeping them from something on a nearby island. They investigate only to be imprisoned by a dragon-worshiping tribe called the Defenders of the Wing led by Queen Mala, who believes them to be hunters for their subjugation of dragons. Hiccup allows himself to stand trial and face their punishments, seeing Mala and her tribe as potential allies in their struggles against the hunters and eventually wins her trust. They learn the tribe is guarded by a lava-eating dragon, the Eruptodon, whom Mala and the others label 'The Great Protector,' but Hiccup soon realizes when the Eruptodon is captured that Viggo was using them as a distraction. Believing them to have been in league with the Hunters all along, Mala swears to kill Hiccup herself.
