Edits I Made Quite A While Ago(?

You know... as much as I hate the Light Fury, there's one thing after all these years that makes me genuinely feel bad for her.

The Hidden World sets her up as this poor abused, traumatized soul. She has been tortured and intimidated so much by humans that she can't connect with them. Just getting a glimpse of one makes her turn tail and flee for her life.

And yet, the movie robs her of her own revenge. She doesn't get to fight Grimmel, or the hunters. Leading up to and during the film's final battle, she's tranquilized, bound, has her life directly threatened, and then gets taken control of again and used against Toothless.

And she doesn't get revenge for any of it. She doesn't even get to fight in the armada battle. The one scene where she at least growls at her captors was animated specifically for the trailer, and isn't even in the final version.

You can argue that she got some form of control by choosing to save Hiccup and not Grimmel (thus killing him), but even so, there's no focus on her victory. It doesn't feel like a victory connected to her abuse, but instead, another setup that the movie forgot to pay off.

DreamWorks wanted a tormented, broken dragon, but forgot to let her fight for herself.

Even I can admit she deserved that much.

Day One: I, Upon The Back Of Might

I, upon the back of Might,

feel small and out of place,

a stranger to this open world,

as wind tickles my face.

The lands are well below us,

and I map out where we've been

as I grasp onto the feathers of my

mighty, flying friend.

As we soar above them, finally,

I let go of my fear.

If the Gods had thought it shouldn't be,

they would not have put me here.

I find myself laughing aloud

at the ones watching the sky.

While I, upon the back of Might,

am beaming; I can fly.

To this day it still bugs me how the people responsible for some of the best character development in an animated franchise skipped over that for a female dragon in favor of making her bland and kind of a bitch
