Oooooh, I am dying to answer another question, but I promised to stay away from Hiccup's keyboard!

Well at least I can reply to your reply about the Red Death. The dragons were at war with the people. I think that they do have a good side of their nature (well obviously!), but that was completely ruled out by there fear of the Red Death. They were practically starving both themselves and the Vikings by feeding it. Did they serve him to protect the vikings? I think probably not. It was all self preservation! I mean they attacked and killed hundreds of vikings, so I doubt they were really trying to protect them. Plus at that time the vikings were still killing them. So I think fear of the Red Death eating them is what drove them to feed him. I will leave your second question to my rider to answer!
