"Those must be their burrows," thought Hiccup.
They were larger than any burrows Hiccup had ever seen before. Some of the holes were as big as the front door of the Great Hall.
"They must be somewhere down there," thought Hiccup, swallowing hard.
Because there were no animals or birds, and no winds on such a calm day, there was an eerie silence.
Except, that is, for one terrifying sound.
