* ExactWords: Hiccup forces the assassins to confess who sent them and why. When they do just that, they are shocked that Hiccup won't let them go. Hiccup mentions that this is because he said that he would let them ''live'' and that he will let them go free if his word checks out and he never sets foot within 100 feet within him or his family again.

* HonorBeforeReason: Having promised to let them live, Hiccup refuses to kill the captured mercenaries regardless of his true feelings.
--> '''Hiccup''': They just tried to kill us. It's not like Henry's comedy act last autumn, where they were trying to capture us and then we executed them for something else. They just tried to murder us in our sleep after luring us here! Maybe later I'll feel differently, but I've still got Toothless's blood drying on my hands! ''But I gave my oath that they'd live.''

!!'''Book II, Chapter 34'''

-> ''Dragon biology is specific enough to be given its own distinct sub-classification within the realm of herpetology, for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, unlike most reptiles, dragons are endotherms, with the corresponding higher need for caloric intake and higher ability to maintain activity in a variety of temperature conditions. Secondarily, the draconic clade is home to a variety of unique anatomical and genetic adaptations, including the definitional petrochemical organ system and all of its myriad variations; the high silica content of their hides, tissues, and bones; and, in some breeds, the addition of a third set of limbs in the form of wings. The third reason is strictly pragmatic: due to the omnipresence of dragons within our society, the field of dragon medicine and biological research is in high demand and warrants specialization—which is probably why you are reading this textbook in the first place.''

-> ''[…] Like all doctors, regardless of patient type, physicians who specialize in the treatment of dragons most often find themselves dealing with prosaic injuries, and we must remember to avoid the allure of the fascinoma and other zebras; a dragon shedding its scales out of season likely has mites, not skin necrosis, and a dragon whose flame is weak likely has swelling of the throat valves, not Flame Dousing Disorder (as the FDD virus, which ravages the dragon's symbiotic bacteria, can only be transmitted under specific circumstances and there hasn't been a recorded case in over eighty years). More common are simple injuries. While dragons are hardy and resilient creatures, they can still be tremendously fragile under certain circumstances. The wings, in particular, while sharing the fireproof nature of the rest of the dragon's hide, are simply skin with minimal scale cover, if any. Wing injuries are extremely common simply due to this vulnerability...''

His heirs will be Christian, and they will help bring about—
