At last Christopher Paolini answers some questions
Answers by Christopher Paolini
Did Tornac teach Murtagh just to fight with his sword or also the mind defense and the ancient language? If yes, why did Galbatorix tolerate such a powerful companion with Morzan’s son? If no, who taught Murtagh speak the ancient language correctly so quickly?
In regard to mind defense, in Alagaësia many people who don’t use magic have learned to defend their minds, to shield their thoughts from unwanted intrusion. This is not a matter of ability but of will power. Since Murtagh grew up around Galbatorix, Morzan, and other magicians, it was inevitable that he learned things about the inner workings of the empire. So Morzan and others taught Murtagh to shield himself. This was more to protect themselves than for Murtagh’s benefit.
I’m sure Murtagh picked up a few words of the ancient language from the magicians when he was growing up. However, he learned the majority of it from Eragon when they were traveling from Brom’s tomb to Gil’ead. Also, Galbatorix would have trained Murtagh in the ancient language after Thorn hatched.
Where did Ajihad come from? Was his home country the same as the country where the Ra’zak came from? If yes, why was Ajihad black and King Palancar’s people white?
Ajihad was born in Alagaësia; his people have lived there for many generations. I will reveal more of his back story in the third book. As for the origin of people with dark skin in Alagaësia, see the “Concise History of Alagaësia” in the Limited Edition of Eldest.
When and how did the woman Brom loved and to whom his love had been her downfall die?
Ahh, for that you must wait until Book Three.
How did Ismira die? Did she commit suicide or someone/something killed her?
Ismira loved walking. One day she went to collect wild flowers in the Spine. There, she slipped and fell at the top of Igualda Falls. It was an accident, a tragedy of life.
Who originally stole Saphira’s egg from Galbatorix and why did he/she succeed to take only one of the three?
I may tell this story more fully in the future, but what I can say is that it was taken by an agent the Varden had placed within Galbatorix’s castle. Only one egg was taken because he or she botched the job and, as I said in Eragon, the thief did not take the egg to the Varden, as originally planned, but fled with it. This led to the great dragon egg hunt among Morzan, Brom, and Jeod.
How did the first Rider Eragon and Bid’Darm die?
That is a story for another time.
Will there be additional races in the Book 3 (hobits, trolls, …)? Do they live in Alagaësia even if we will not encounter them in the course of the Inheritance trilogy?
I don’t think so, but then I never planned on having Feldûnost, so you never know what may show up. Yes, there may very well be additional races in Alagaësia that Eragon has yet to encounter.
Why are Elva’s eyes purple? Is it the natural colour of her eyes or has it been affected by Eragon’s blessing/curse?
Elva’s eyes have been affected by Eragon’s actions. The color of her eyes is the physical manifestation of the magic that flows through her, just as Durza’s maroon eyes and crimson hair reflected the amount of energy that coursed through him.
How large is Alagaësia in comparison to continents on Earth?
Alagaësia is the larger portion of an even larger continent.
Did Eragon already acquire the weapon mentioned by Solembum in the first book?
No. Trust me, when he gets it, I’ll make a big deal of it.
How many Dragon Riders were there between the first and last Eragon? How long did they usually live or serve their duty in peaceful and difficult times?
There were many hundreds of Dragon Riders over the course of the centuries. They tended to have very long lives, but much shorter than the average elf’s because their occupation was so dangerous.
What is the principle of werecats’ and Bladgen’s abilities to foretell the future? Is there a difference between the werecats and the raven? Do they sense the future of a person who they meet or do they have a general awareness of the future of Alagaësia in a wider context?
Many people and creatures who have magic in their blood, even beyond the levels of an elf, can sense, at least vaguely, the direction events may take in the near future. This ability is linked to the very nature of magic and is something that the magicians of Alagaësia do not fully understand.
The werecats are an ancient race. Blagden, in contrast, was endowed with his abilities by the elf king, Evandar. Also, Blagden can’t shapeshift.
What happened with Brom’s blue sword?
Brom’s sword was presumed lost or destroyed in the battle where the Forsworn killed his dragon, Saphira.
Please, tell us more about the culture of dwarfs.
Gladly, in Book Three!
Where did the dragons come from? If they are native to Alagaësia, did they evolve there or were they created together with the land? How?
Dragons evolved in the land of Alagaësia from a common ancestor they share with the Fanghur, the dragonettes that Eragon and Saphira encountered in the Beor Mountains.
Are elves capable of loving another person after their partner dies? In other words, is it in nature of Arya to love ever again in her life?
Elves are very loyal once they give their heart to someone, and they will mourn for a long time if they lose a partner. Although it may take them decades to recover, they certainly can have other relationships and truly love again. More of Arya’s story will be revealed in Book Three.

April 28, 2007 at 2:46 am
Hey just as an answer to some of your questions…..The third book is called Empire, it is coming out in May of 2008 (i think) and for the first person who made a comment……A trilogy IS a set of 3 BOOKS!!!!
I am pretty sure that These are accurate answers and I also think that If he made a whole book of the ancient language it would be pretty pointless…..

May 1, 2007 at 11:25 pm
where does the name eldest fall in with the story? i know eragon is for eragon’s name and empire because eragon is fighting the empire but what’s with eldest?
May 2, 2007 at 7:04 am
Eldest comes from the Eragon meeting the first dragon/dragon rider. They are the eldest.
Where did you hear that the third title would be called Empire?
May 2, 2007 at 9:37 pm
read what dragon rider wrote.
May 2, 2007 at 9:41 pm
lewiswalkz remember in the 2nd book when it said that elves don’t get married. i don’t think arya will marry eragon
May 2, 2007 at 10:06 pm
THE TITLE OF THE LAST BOOK IS NOT EMPIRE. THAT WAS JUST A RUMOR. IT DOES START WITH AN E. THAT IS ALL PAOLINI REVEALED IN AN INTERVIEW ABOUT THE TITLE. HE DID SAY THAT THE COVER WILL BE GREEN AND THAT A GREEN DRAGON FACING TO THE RIGHT WILL BE IN THE CENTER.
May 2, 2007 at 10:06 pm
IT COMES OUT IN AUGUST OF 2008
May 2, 2007 at 10:52 pm
I am almost POSITIVE that it comes out may or june of 2008. Nasuada, what is up with the caps??? newayz. Everyone knows that it will be green with a dragon facing the right. and I am pretty sure that the title IS Empire. It would really fit. or another POSSIBILITY is Elvish or Elvian. Some theories of mine are that Brom is Eragon’s father, Oromis WILL die, Arya will be the Rider of the Green Dragon (that is the most likely fit, if anyone has questions on this I have answers), a POSSIBILITY is that Eragon and Saphira WILL get captured but will escape (obviously) but i doubt this one, Eragon will learn his True Name and go to the Vault of Souls to fulfill Solembum’s Prophecy, also he will get a BLUE sword (probably brom’s) from under the roots of the Manoa tree, AND lastly, RORAN will be teh new King Of Alagaesia after galbatorix’s death will katrina as his queen….
Anymore questions?

May 3, 2007 at 4:48 pm
is it possible that roran will become a rider?
May 3, 2007 at 11:34 pm
Lovethebooks~ There is a slight possibility that Roran will be the next rider, but it is not very likely for a couple reasons. First is just a lineage thing. Realize that Morzan being Murtaghs father and they were both riders. Brom being Eragon’s father and they were both riders. Roran has no rider lineage though. This does not mean he COULDN”T be a rider but it does seem to sort of run in the family. That is not a likely reason though. A better reason for why he wouldn’t is that he is the most likely to become king of alagaesia and I don’t think that he will be king AND a rider. But it is very possible that roran COULD be a rider. Paolini has not siad nething on roran so it is up for debate. If he is a rider then Nasuada will most likely be the new ruler of alagaesia. That is really all just guessing but it is all that I have got.
May 3, 2007 at 11:47 pm
On Roran newayz…….!!!
May 4, 2007 at 12:24 am
if eragon desides that it is pointless to like arya do u think that mabey he might start to like nasuada even though she is a little older?
May 4, 2007 at 10:47 pm
Maybe, but not likely. I do think that Arya and Eragon will end up together or they will Eragon will banish any hopes of being with her and just focus on his duties as a rider. I don’t think that if he decides to give up on arya he will like nasuada. And if he did, I don’t think that she would like him bakc. They are friends but Eragon has sworn Fealty to her, and she can’t be distracted by eragon as the leader of the varden, as eragon can’t really be distracted by her from his training and duties, as is also the case with arya. I don’t think that he will pursue any relationship with anyone until after galbatorix is dead and the war is over. Then he may try to approach Arya again (maybe she will approach him! but that could be wishful thinking) but if not, I don’t think he will pursue any other relationships with other people….

May 5, 2007 at 7:40 am
This is what i think: i think that roran will become king somehow. He is already leading carvahall practically and he seems like a realy good leader. he pursuaded the village to leave their homes and set out to surda. he and eragon will rescue katrina and she will be the queen.
i also think that theyre might be a new elven queen or king, because islandzadi is quite old and that just what i think. It will be interesitng to see if that ACTUALLY does happen, and IF arya ends up leading the elves or becoming a rider???
newasy that prob doesnt make sense.. but i also think that the child blessed by saphira and eagon will play an important part.
in eragons prophecy it says that eragon will leave this land forever or something like that, so i think that murtagh will be killed (its just my thoughts) and eradon and arya (who could be the last dragon rider??) will leave alagaesia forever and go on adventures and stuff like that… yeah welll i dont really know soo these are just some of my thoguthts!!
May 5, 2007 at 8:04 am
I have read both books and I am pretty sure that he will surprise us with the title. As for Arya and Eragon I don’t think he would allow that to happen. It is like one of those relationships on T.V. You know the ones that you wish, it really gripes me but make for good reading. As for the movie eeeh it was a joke and it really dishonored the book. To many things were different. When Brom was killed it sickened me. It was obvious at who Murtagh is just to many similarities. As for the katrina therory it is sound. If it does happen than Roran will turn and Eragon will figure out a way to reverse the oath of Mutagh. Now that would be great reading there.
May 5, 2007 at 10:35 pm
Katrina will no doubt be rescued. In chapter three, eragon and roran set out to Helgrind to find Katrina, so it will probably be much more exciting then the second one! BUT in the third chapter eragon and roran and saphira run into trouble with the lethrblaka and raz’zac, so IDK! I think it is possible that Eragon will actually be captured but will escape. Do you guys want an excerpt from Chapter Three??? It is way good! EXCITING ALL THE WAY AND IT TOTALLY LEAVES YOU HANGING!!!!!!!

May 6, 2007 at 11:48 pm
OK, There is NOT a definite actual SET date for the third book, but it is FOR SURE in 2008. IT is MOST LIKELY between MAY-JULY (may is the most likely time) and if not in FALL sometime. AND THERE IS A RUMORED RELEASE DATE THAT IS MAY 25 2008 BUT THIS IS NOT EXACT SO DON”T GET ALL SET ON THAT DATE!!!!
Dwarf Girl~ Just in case you are still on here and never got an answer to your question “how does eldest fit in with the story” I have a pretty good answer for that.
Eldest is because Murtagh is the SUPPOSEDLY the ELDEST of he and eragon and so Zar’roc is his INHERITANCE and he took it from eragon bcuz it was his BIRTHRIGHT! So, that is an idea of where eldest comes in as a title.
Eldest by definition, means the firstborn or eldest of a group of children or etc. So the answer is that murtagh is the ELDEST of he and eragon being at least 1-2 years older then he is….answer enough?

LIGHT AND SHADOW
(An Excerpt from the Third Chapter of
the Third Book of the Inheritance trilogy)
“Saphira kneaded the soil beneath her feet. Let us be off! Leaving their bags and supplies hanging from the branch of a juniper tree, Eragon and Roran clambered onto Saphira’s back. They wasted no time saddling her; she had worn her tack through the night. The molded leather was warm, almost hot, underneath Eragon. He clutched the neck spike in front of him—to steady himself during sudden changes in direction—while Roran hooked one thick arm around Eragon’s waist and brandished his hammer with the other.
A piece of shale cracked under Saphira’s weight as she settled into a low crouch and then, in a single giddy bound, leaped up to the rim of the gulch, where she balanced for a moment before unfolding her massive wings. The thin membranes thrummed as Saphira raised them toward the sky. Vertical, they looked like two translucent blue sails.
“Not so tight,” grunted Eragon.
“Sorry,” said Roran. He loosened his embrace.
Further speech became impossible as Saphira jumped again.
When she reached the pinnacle of her jump, she brought her wings down with a mighty whoosh, driving the three of them even higher. With each subsequent flap, they climbed closer to the flat, narrow clouds that extended east to west.
As Saphira angled toward Helgrind, Eragon glanced to his left and discovered that, because of their elevation, he could see a broad swath of Leona Lake some miles distant. A thick layer of mist, gray and ghostly in the pre-dawn glow, emanated from the water, as if witchfire burned upon the surface of the liquid. Eragon tried, but even with his hawklike vision, he could not make out the far shore, nor the southern reaches of the Spine beyond, which he regretted. He had not laid eyes upon the mountain range of his childhood since leaving Palancar Valley.
To the north stood Dras-Leona, a huge, rambling mass that appeared as a blocky silhouette against the wall of mist that edged its western flank. The one building Eragon could identify was the cathedral where the Ra’zac had attacked him; its flanged spire
loomed above the rest of the city, like a barbed spearhead. And somewhere in the landscape that rushed past below, Eragon knew, were the remnants of the campsite where the Ra’zac had mortally wounded Brom. He allowed all of his anger and grief over the events of that day—as well as Garrow’s murder and the destruction of their farm—to surge forth and give him the courage, nay, the desire, to face the Ra’zac in combat.
Eragon, said Saphira. Today we need not guard our minds and keep our thoughts secret from one another, do we?
Not unless another magician should appear.
A fan of golden light flared into existence as the top of the sun crested the horizon. In an instant, the full spectrum of colors enlivened the previously drab world: the mist glowed white, the water became a rich blue, the daubed-mud wall that encircled the center of Dras-Leona revealed its dingy yellow sides, the trees cloaked themselves in every shade of green, and the soil blushed red and orange. Helgrind, however, remained as it always was—black.
The mountain of stone rapidly grew larger as they approached. Even from the air, it was intimidating.
Diving toward the base of Helgrind, Saphira tilted so far to her left, Eragon and Roran would have fallen if they had not already strapped their legs to the saddle. Then she whipped around the apron of scree and over the altar where the priests of Helgrind observed their ceremonies. The lip of Eragon’s helm caught the wind from her passage and produced a howl that almost deafened him.
“Well?” shouted Roran. He could not see in front of them. “The slaves are gone!”
A great weight seemed to press Eragon into his seat as Saphira pulled out of her dive and spiraled up around Helgrind, searching for an entrance to the Ra’zac’s hideout.
Not even a hole big enough for a woodrat, she declared. She slowed and hung in place before a ridge that connected the third lowest of the four peaks to the prominence above. The jagged buttress magnified the boom produced by each stroke of her wings until it was as loud as a thunderclap. Eragon’s eyes watered as the air pulsed against his skin.
A web of white veins adorned the backside of the crags and pillars, where hoarfrost had collected in the cracks that furrowed the rock. Nothing else disturbed the gloom of Helgrind’s inky, windswept ramparts. No trees grew there among the slanting stones, nor shrubs, nor grass, nor moss, nor lichen, nor did eagles dare nest upon the tower’s broken ledges. True to its name, Helgrind was a place of death, and stood cloaked in the razor-sharp, sawtoothed folds of its scarps and clefts like a bony specter risen to haunt the earth.
Casting his mind outward, Eragon confirmed the presence of one of the slaves, as well as the two people whom he had discovered imprisoned within Helgrind the previous day, but to his concern, he could not locate the Ra’zac or the Lethrblaka. If they aren’t here, then where? he wondered. Searching again, he noticed something that had eluded him before: a single flower, a gentian, blooming not fifty feet in front of them where, by all rights, there ought to be solid rock. How does it get enough light to live?
Saphira answered his question by perching on a crumbling spur several feet to the right. As she did, she lost her balance for a moment and flared her wings to steady herself. Instead of brushing against the bulk of Helgrind, the tip of her right wing dipped into the rock and then back out again.
Saphira, did you see that!
I did.
Leaning forward, Saphira pushed the tip of her snout toward the sheer rock, paused an inch or two away—as if waiting for a trap to spring—then continued her advance. Scale by scale, Saphira’s head slid into Helgrind, until all that was visible of her to Eragon was a neck, torso, and wings.
It’s an illusion! exclaimed Saphira.
With a surge of her mighty thews, she abandoned the spur and flung the rest of her body after her head. It required every bit of Eragon’s self-control not to cover his face in a desperate bid to protect himself as the crag rushed toward him.
An instant later, he found himself looking at a broad, vaulted cave suffused with the warm glow of morning. Saphira’s scales refracted the light, casting thousands of shifting blue flecks across the rock. Twisting around, Eragon saw no wall behind them, only the mouth of the cave and a sweeping view of the landscape beyond.
Eragon grimaced. It had never occurred to him that Galbatorix might have hidden the Ra’zac’s lair with magic. Idiot! I have to do better, he thought. Underestimating the king was a sure way to get them all killed.
Roran swore and said, “Warn me before you do something like that again.”
Hunching forward, Eragon unbuckled his legs from the saddle as he studied their surroundings, alert for any danger.
The opening to the cave was an irregular oval, perhaps fifty feet high and sixty feet wide. From there, the chamber expanded to twice that size before ending a good bowshot away in a pile of thick stone slabs that leaned against each other in a confusion of uncertain angles. A mat of powder-gray scratches defaced the floor, evidence of the many times the Lethrblaka had taken off, landed, and walked about thereon. Like mysterious keyholes, five low tunnels pierced the sides of the cave, as did a lancet passageway large enough to accommodate Saphira. Eragon examined the tunnels carefully, but they were pitch-black and appeared vacant, a fact he confirmed with quick thrusts of his mind. Strange, disjointed murmurs echoed from within Helgrind’s innards, suggesting unknown things scurrying about in the dark, and endlessly dripping water. Adding to the chorus of whispers was the steady rise and fall of Saphira’s breathing, which was overloud in the confines of the bare chamber.
The most distinctive feature of the cavern, however, was the mixture of odors that pervaded it. The smell of cold stone dominated, but underneath it, Eragon discerned whiffs of damp and mold and something far worse: the sickly-sweet fetor of rotting meat.
Undoing the last few straps, Eragon swung his right leg over Saphira’s spine, so he was sitting sidesaddle, and prepared to jump off her back. Roran did the same on the opposite side.
Before he released his hold, Eragon heard, amid the many rustlings that teased his ear, a score of simultaneous clicks, as if someone had struck the rock with a collection of hammers. The sound repeated itself a half-second later.
He looked in the direction of the noise, as did Saphira.
A huge, twisted shape hurtled out of the lancet passageway. Eyes black, bulging, rimless. A beak seven feet long. Batlike wings. The torso naked, hairless, rippling with muscle. Claws like iron spikes.
Saphira lurched as she tried to evade the Lethrblaka, but to no avail. The creature crashed into her right side with what felt to Eragon like the strength and fury of an avalanche.
What exactly happened next, he knew not, for the impact sent him tumbling through space without so much as a half-formed thought in his jumbled brain. His blind flight ended as abruptly as it began when something hard and flat rammed against the back of him, and he dropped to the floor, banging his head a second time.
That last collision drove the remaining air clean out of Eragon’s lungs. Stunned, he lay curled on his side, gasping and struggling to regain a semblance of control over his unresponsive limbs.
Eragon! cried Saphira.”

May 7, 2007 at 10:27 pm
DragonRider if you were paying attention at the end of eldest you will realize that Brom isn’t Eragons father or he would have told him that when he died. Anyway it says at the end of eldest that MORZAN is Eragons father. Also I think that maybe it won’t be Broms sword under the tree but perhaps the first Eragon’s sword. Also id like to say to Dragonrider you r a BUT HEAD!! Also if u think im an idiot ur wrong, ive read both books about 5 times in all.
May 8, 2007 at 3:44 am
OK “stronghammer” you are blind as a bat if you are so CLOSE-MINDED as to not leave your brain open to POSSIBLITIES! There are several good reasons that BROM COULD BE ERAGON”S FATHER. Yes, I may be wrong and I am not afraid to admit it, but I think that there are many valid reasons that I could BE RIGHT!!! And if you pull up the “murtagh said that morzan was eragon’s father IN THE ANCIENT LANG.” then I will find you and come kick your fricken tiny butt…bcuz if he BELIEVED that then he wouldn’t be lying and COULD say it in the AC. NOW, open up your tiny little brain and think about these…..I got these from a website from on another forum…. and to the other people on this website, including you stronghammer, then if you disagree with someone, then try being kinder about it and not go biting their head off. I may not be nice to “stronghammer” but he started it. SO PLEASE TRY TO BE NICE AND EXCUSE MY MEAN WORDS TO STRONG HAMMER BCUZ I WON”T BE MEAN TO NEONE ELSE. I ACTUALLY RESPECT PEOPLE’S OPINIONS….unlike SOME people
Does neone BESIDES stronghammer think that morzan is eragon’s father? Well if you do then you should read these…..(don’t worry I won’t freak out at you, just at stronghammer)
P. 546 in ELDEST
“Son and Father alike, both blind as bats”.
This is about betrayal. Brom was blind to Morzan’s betrayal, and Eragon was blind to Murtagh’s betrayal.
Eldest page 656:
Saphira ruffled his hair with a gust of hot breath. “Just remember, whatever Brom’s reasons, he always tried to protect us from danger. He died saving you from the Ra’zac.”
“I know…. Do you think he didn’t tell me about this because he was afraid I might emulate Morzan, like Murtagh has?” ( THIS MEANS TELL HIM ABOUT MORZAN BEING HIS FATHER, HE WOULDNL”T TELL ERAGON THAT BCUZ IT ISN”T TRUE)
“Of course not.” (SEE SAPHIRA IS SMART, AS YOU SO OBVIOUSLY ARN’T)
He looked at her, curious. “How can you be so certain?” She lifted her head high above him and refused to meet his eyes or to answer. “Have it your way, then.”
This is an enormously important quote. Saphira is waiting to tell Oromis/Glaedr (she might have done so already) about Brom being Eragon’s father. I think it’s a sure bet that Oromis will be the one to tell Eragon the truth. Just like in Book 1, Saphira knows that Eragon isn’t quite mature enough to receive this information.
THIS is the most important one, IF IT ISN”T TOO HARD, TRY TO OPEN YOUR MIND AND PAY ATTENTION
p. 546
“While two may share two,
And one of two is certainly one,
One might be two.”
While two sons (Eragon and Murtagh) “may” share the same two parents (Morzan and Selena),
And one parent of two parents, the Mother-Selena, is certainly the same one parent of both sons,
One parent, the Father, might be two Fathers (Brom and Morzan) each having one of the sons.
What in the world could this riddle be about if it doesn’t support the two-father theory?
DON”T mess with me bcuz no matter what you say, no matter what argument you put out, I will just end up proving you WRONG
AND, when the third book comes out and I am right and you are wrong I will be just laughing about this…..
And, yes I think that someone who has read the books five times and still can’t see past the obvious must be an idiot.

Just to make EBRITHILL MAD! I am going to put out another THEORY or GUESS on here….
i think that Eragon will go to the Vault of Souls and when he gets there he will have to speak his TRUE NAME to get in. When he does he will meet the spirits of dragonriders past. They will help to make him really powerful and perhaps will like join with him (they’ll like become one with him or whatever) so he will have the power to defeat galbatorix and if necessary, MURTAGH!!! 🙂 Hope I made some think and really REALLY ANNOYED some others!

Some of the people who are criticizing the theories on here are simple minded idiots.I would be honored to sit here day after day and read what is said. you people take to many things for granted, like freedom of speach. come on we are all grown ups here.if dragonrider wants to put out a book of theories than so be it. it is an american right. please belive me when i say i belive in these things because i am writing this from my room in IRAQ. reading is all i have here and when i get on and read some of the things that are written to offend others, it shames me. makes me ask myself what the crap am i doing over here a third time for. DRAGONRIDER please keep putting things out it helps take my mind off bombs and bullets for a few mins. i enjoy reading these things.STRONGHAMMER and EBRITHILL get a life and leave thease people alone. not only are you making a fool out of yourself but you are shaming soldiers who are over here protecting you. i havent had any ideas of my own yet so who knows. but i have earned the right to say what i have said. so please act like civilized adults.

May 9, 2007 at 9:15 pm
i have a theory about the The Vault of Souls, its Location and its Contents
Once again, it’s time to look at what Solembum has told Eragon. “Then, when all seems lost and your power is insufficient, go to the rock of Kuthian and speak your name to open the Vault of Souls.”
Where is the Vault of Souls, first of all? Some say that it is on Doru Areaba, the great city of the riders. Others say that it is the Star Sapphire of Tronjheim. However, there is one location that seems much more likely: Helgrind.
Now, if you examine the description of Helgrind, you’ll notice that it looks strikingly similar to a rock formation in New Mexico known as Ship Rock. If you switch the words around a bit, you get… Rock of Ship. Looks a bit like the Rock of Kuthain, doesn’t it? The other reasons for Helgrind to be the likely location of the Rock of Kuthain become clear later, in the discussion of the contents of the Vault of Souls.
So, then we move onto the likely contents of the Vault of Souls. Sounds pretty basic, doesn’t it? It’s a vault… containing souls. But for what purpose, and from where? Remember when Eragon was fighting Murtagh? He discovers that Murtagh’s mind seemingly contains multitudes—multitudes of souls. So clearly, Murtagh is drawing his power from other souls along with his own, and if he was taught by Galbatorix, then it stands to reason that Galbatorix does, as well.
But where do the souls come from? Well, if we’re supposing that the Vault of Souls is in Helgrind, that immediately reminds us of another sinister pair of characters: the Ra’zac. Now, the Ra’zac are the king’s personal dragon hunters, and also are creatures meant to prey on humans. So, it’s clear that these Ra’zac do a lot of killing. But instead of letting all the power of a soul go to waste, why not find a way to store it, instead? Say, to use a spell that, instead of destroying the soul of those killed by the Ra’zac, instead stores it in a handy vault: a Vault of Souls. This explains why Galbatorix is seemingly impossibly getting stronger every year: every time the Ra’zac kill a person, that soul is added to the Vault and Galbatorix (and now Murtagh, as well) become more powerful. Of course, the Vault of Souls is also a physical place, so why not throw in any dragon eggs for safekeeping? Namely, that of the green dragon.
And said contents explain why opening the vault will be so important: not only will it give the Varden access to another dragon egg and soon another rider, but it will also make Galbatorix and Murtagh both substantially less powerful, and give Eragon a fair chance at beating one or both of them (with help from the green dragon’s rider, of course).

Lovethebooks~ I don’t think that it would because, true a shade is a sorceror that is controlled by evil demonic spirits, but if the spirits were good and were once honorable riders then I think that it would make him powerful LIKE a shade, but he wouldn’t BE a shade. Does that make sense?!?!
Palerider~ Do you really live in iraq?!?! Thanx for stickin up for me! I will always keep putting stuff out, cuz no matter what SOME PEOPLE say, I don’t really care. I will stick to my opinions. btw, i am not an adult. i am only 14, but i still have freedom of speech…!
AND EBRITHILL>>>DID YOU READ MY COMMENTS TO STRONGHAMMER! WELL YOU SHOULD! they explain about the brom-eragon theory. and as i said to him, i shall say to you. WHEN I AM RIGHT AND YOU ARE WRONG THEN I WILL BE LAUGHING AT YOU… AND, what was funny?!?! my comment? if so, good cuz i had a good time writing that! and ya i noticed that you had been on here before. of course it was after i put out that comment…..
AND NASUADA~ I HAVE READ THAT THEORY BFORE AND I KNOW WHERE YOU GOT IT AND YOU SOOO DID NOT WRITE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!. bsides, it doesn’t sound like you! YOU HAVE A VOICE AND IT ISN”T THERE! BUT, glad you agree with it cuz’ i do too. it is a good theory. don’t take this offensively cuz in case you couldn’t tell i am saying all this in a joking manner.

Finally, he reached the bottom floor. To get into the room, he had to pass through an arch. On the arch, it was written:
Only he who values the inside most
Will choose well; the
Girl inside is under a spell.
Find her portrait, and she will be free,
If not, she stays here for eternity.
Find the portrait, and she will wake:
Think hard, think well!
For only one can break
The spell.
Jake entered, gaping about him. There were three chests: a gold one, a silver one, and a copper one. Behind them was a girl, entirely encased in…diamond? Ice? Jake didn’t know.
“Values the inside,” muttered Jake. “Values the inside…”
That means don’t judge appearances, he realized. He walked to the gold case not that one, he decided. Not the silver, either. So that means…
He walked to the copper chest and opened it. Inside was a perfect likeness of the girl.
The diamond shattered. Jake looked up. There stood thee girl. She was quite pretty, in a dark sort of way. He hurried to bow.

HOW DO THESE SMILES WORK?:.)
May 10, 2007 at 5:48 am
i no wat u meen and iv egot some more theorys tho9 the’re nt written by me
Who will ride the Green dragon?
Everyone’s biggest question. First, will it be good or evil? That the green dragon and his rider will be on the good side is expected; if the green dragon were evil, the Varden wouldn’t stand a chance. There are several candidates for the third rider, so here’s the list, in order from least likely to most likely:
Orik
The least likely candidate I’ve seen proposed to be the rider of the green dragon. People say he should be the last rider because then there would be the human Murtagh, the “elf” Eragon, and then the dwarf Orik. Supporting this theory is Orik’s apparent lack of fear when it comes to flying and the presence of Saphira herself.
However, there is significant evidence against the theory, namely the fact that dwarves were not included in the spell that links the dragons to elves and humans, which is what allows human and elf riders to exist. You could say that just as humans were added to the spell, dwarves could be, as well. And while that is certainly possible, you must look at the likelihood of it actually happening. First of all, what cause would there be to add dwarves to the spell in the first place? No reason immediately presents itself. Along with this, why would the dwarves wish to be added to the spell? A vast majority of them have no interest in even the slightest contact with dragons, and they (or at least a few of them) are aware that the elves and humans are on the decline because of their connection to the dragons, so why would the dwarves want to be connected and thus possibly seal their own fate of declining?
Therefore, Orik will most likely not be the rider of the green dragon.
Elva
Only slightly more likely than Orik for the simple reason that she’s human, and thus it’s currently possible for her to become a rider. Evidence for her comes first in the form of the dragon-mark Saphira placed on her forehead, and second from Eragon’s blessing, which should bring her to do great things in her life.
However, even in her present, magically enhanced state, she is quite simply too young to be a rider, much less a useful one. Sure, maybe she could use her magic to make herself old enough, but you must keep in mind Eragon’s promise to Angela: that he would remove the blessing/curse that he placed over her. And once he removes the magic from her, she will once again be an infant child, and that would mean that she will have no contact with the dragon egg.
So maybe, if there are more dragon eggs in the future, Elva will become a rider later in life. But it’s incredibly unlikely that she will be the rider the green dragon.
A character that has yet to be introduced
It’s always possible that CP could introduce a new character in book three and have that character be the rider of the green dragon. However, this is highly unlikely because both of our present riders of the new generation, Eragon and Murtagh, were introduced in the first book and had already received significant character development by the time they were riders. If a new character were to become the rider of the green dragon with substantially less development than the other candidates… I’m sure that many of us would be less than satisfied.
So, it’s unlikely that any newly introduced character will be the rider of the green dragon.
Roran
Now we reach the group of four characters who are the most likely to become the rider of the green dragon. The main evidence people suggest for him is that, as Murtagh and Eragon apparently have the blood of a rider in them, Roran, who they claim also has the blood of a rider in him, should be one as well. This is wrong, however, as Roran is only related to Morzan (the rider he is supposedly getting blood from) because of Selena’s marriage to Morzan, and therefore does not have any blood relation to the man.
Counting against Roran is first the fact that he is human and second the fact that he is male. More on why being male counts against him will come later, but here is a good place to address why being a human is bad for his chances of being the rider of the green dragon. Now, Eragon spent about four months training with Brom and about ten months training with Oromis, and even after all that time and training, Murtagh was still able to beat him, with apparent ease. For Roran to be effective in battle, he would likely have to train for even longer that, and that’s an amount of time that the Varden just doesn’t have in this war. It’s likely that the Empire could win the war in that amount of time.
So, it’s possible but not probable that Roran will be the rider of the green dragon.
Nasuada
The third most likely choice for the rider of the green dragon. Nasuada is likely for several reasons: first, she’s female. Presently every rider that’s alive is male, a rather unbalanced situation. That makes the market for a female rider that much more open. Second, she’s the leader of the Varden, and being in such an important position, she’d likely have access to the egg, once stolen, before all members of the Varden aside from those who do the actual stealing. A third point some people bring up is that she could be related to Eragon and Murtagh (highly unlikely, borderline impossible—more on that in a moment), and because they are both riders, she should be as well.
The main argument against Nasuada is the simple fact that she’s human, as is the case with Roran above. But along with that, it must be considered that Nasuada commands the Varden’s armies. The Varden cannot afford for their army to be without a commander for such a length of time.
Now, to address why she cannot be related to Murtagh or Eragon: if she’s related to them, it’s obviously through Selena, as we know her father was Ajihad. However, it must be considered that, first of all, Nasuada and Murtagh are approximately the same age. Yes, I know that twins are possible, but how does a woman manage to have two children by two different fathers growing in her womb at the same time? Answer: it’s impossible. There’s more evidence, but after that explanation there’s really no need to elaborate. Nasuada is not at all related to Eragon and Murtagh.
So, it’s possible but not probable that Nasuada will be the rider of the green dragon.
Vanir
Vanir is likely for the same reason that Nasuada is unlikely: he is an elf. The fact that he is an elf means that he is already trained in the ways of magic, and that means that, were he to become the rider of the green dragon, he would need significantly less training than any human candidate.
Against Vanir is the fact that he is male. Not that this last dragon is sexist, but as Saphira has told Eragon, whoever she or Eragon loves will affect the feelings of the other. So if Saphira falls in love with the green dragon (which is very likely—more on that later), her love for the green dragon would cause Eragon to develop feelings towards the green dragon. However, because a human can’t have feelings of that sort for a dragon, his emotions would be directed towards someone more accessible: the green dragon’s rider. It does seem likely that Eragon will develop a relationship with someone in the third book, and even more likely that that someone will be the green rider, and that he will have a child with that partner, for that reason the third rider is likely to be female.
So, it’s possible that Vanir will be the rider of the green dragon.
Arya
Arya is the most likely candidate to become the rider of the green dragon. First, there is the fact that she is an elf, and a strong and talented elf at that. From what we’ve seen of her skills both with magic and with the sword, she would require very little training to be useful in battle, merely enough time for the green dragon to become mature enough to fight well in battle, which would be as soon as the green dragon learned to breathe fire, around six months after hatching. Along with that, Arya is female, and not just that but Eragon’s love interest. If Saphira were to fall in love with and mate with the green dragon, that would change Arya’s feelings for Eragon and the two of them would fall in love, as well. Third, two of the most often mentioned facts about Arya are her eye and magic color: emerald green. While eye color certainly has nothing to do with becoming a dragon rider, all of the riders we’ve seen so far in the trilogy have possessed magic the color of his dragon. While there is no evidence that this is always true, it can be interpreted as foreshadowing to her upcoming relation to the green dragon.
The main piece of evidence against Arya is that people claim she is too old. However, there is no evidence that there is a set age limit for becoming a rider, so such a point is meaningless.
So, it is highly likely that Arya will be the rider of the green dragon.

Hey, sorry Arya but I have heard that the last Dragon Rider will be Roran. I however want the rider to be Arya as well. She is a fierce warrior and is highly capable of helping Eragon defeat Galbatorix. She would make a great Dragon Rider!!!!!

Ah, Solembum’s words. “When the time comes and you need a weapon, look under the roots of the Menoa tree. But what will this weapon be?
Some say that Eragon has already received his weapon: his transformation at the Agaeti Blodhren. They say that he was under the Menoa tree when he was transformed, and because of this, the transformation was his weapon.
However, this is likely not the case for the simple reason that it does not match up with Solembum’s words. First, he must be looking for this weapon, and at that time he certainly was not attempting to find a weapon, he was just watching the ceremony. And along with this, the weapon may have been under the Menoa tree, but it was not under the roots of the Menoa tree, which Solembum specified as criteria for this weapon. So, his transformation likely was not the weapon.
No, it’s much more likely that the weapon will be just that: an actual, physical weapon. Say, a sword or, more specifically, Brom’s sword. Remember, it’s said that Brom lost his sword. Seems like an odd place to lose it, though, under a huge tree far from where the fighting during the Fall (the time when he most likely lost his sword) took place. But then, that’s why we must look someplace else: in this case, the dictionary.
Look at the definition for, “root.” In my dictionary, the #3 definition is the word, “origin.” Therefore, instead of looking under the physical roots themselves, Eragon must look to the origins of the Menoa tree: two old elven families, both of which are in possession of the swords of old riders that they salvaged from the wreckage of the battles of the Fall. One elven family will have Brom’s sword, which they will gladly give to Eragon when he comes to see them. As for the other elven family with a sword… They’ll give it the third rider, whose green dragon will match the sword in their possession.

Hear me out on this one. A lot of you are screaming one very misinformed and meaningless thing right now: “Murtagh said that Morzan was his father in the ancient language, and since you can’t lie in the ancient language, Morzan must be his father!” However, this is not at all true, and in reality Morzan is not Eragon’s father. It is Brom.
First, you must understand that it is possible to tell an untruth in the ancient language. You see, just because Murtagh said it in the AL doesn’t mean that it’s true, just that he believed it was true. That was the entire reason Eragon wrote a poem for the Agaeti Blodhren: so Islanzadi could tell Eragon that it was possible to tell untruths in the AL, if you really believed that they were true. So because Murtagh has seen no evidence showing that Eragon could not also be a son of Morzan, and because they do share a mother, he believes that Eragon was also the son of Morzan.
Now, for the extensive evidence:
P. 546
“Son and Father alike, both blind as bats”.
This is about betrayal. Brom was blind to Morzan’s betrayal, and Eragon was blind to Murtagh’s betrayal.
Consider this quote from page 280 of Eldest: (Oromis) “Morzan was my greatest failure. Brom idolized him. He never left his side, never contradicted him, and never believed that he could best Morzan in any venture. Morzan, I’m ashamed to admit-for it was within my power to stop-was aware of this and took advantage of Brom’s devotion in a hundred different ways. He grew so proud and cruel that I considered separating him from Brom. But before I could, Morzan helped Galbatorix to steal a dragon hatchling, Shruikan, to replace the one Galbatorix had lost, killing the dragon’s original rider in the process. Morzan and Galbatorix then fled together, sealing our doom.”
“You cannot begin to fathom the effect Morzan’s betrayal had on Brom until you understand the depth of Brom’s affection for him. And when Galbatorix at last revealed himself and the Forsworn killed Brom’s dragon, Brom focused all of his anger and pain on the one who he felt was responsible for the destruction of his world: Morzan.”
I think that sums it up.
Riddle #3 – This is the most important one
p. 546
“While two may share two,
And one of two is certainly one,
One might be two.”
While two sons (Eragon and Murtagh) “may” share the same two parents (Morzan and Selena),
And one parent of two parents, the Mother-Selena, is certainly the same one parent of both sons,
One parent, the Father, might be two Fathers (Brom and Morzan) each having one of the sons.
What in the world could this riddle be about if it doesn’t support the two-father theory?
One last fact: Blagden never met Morzan so he could not have been talking about him. Morzan was never blind. He knew exactly what he was doing. He was after power. Brom was the only one who was blind by his insane idolization of Morzan.
Eragon pages 281-282:
While they spoke, Saphira crawled into the cave and greeted Eragon. She was glad to see him, but there was deep sadness in her thoughts and words. She laid her big blue head on the floor and asked, “Are you well again?”
“Not quite.”
“I miss the old one.”
“As do I… I never suspected that he was a rider. Brom! He really was an old man – as old as the Forsworn. Everything he taught me about magic he must have learned from the riders themselves.”
Saphira shifted slightly. “I knew what he was the moment he touched me at your farm.”
“And you didn’t tell me? Why?”
“He asked me not to,” she said simply.
Eragon decided not to make an issue of it. Saphira never meant to hurt him. “Brom kept more than that secret,” he told her, then explained about Zar’roc and Murtagh’s reaction to it. “I understand now why Brom didn’t explain Zar’roc’s origins when he gave it to me. If he had, I probably would have run away from him at the first opportunity.”
“You would do well to rid yourself of that sword,” she said with distaste. “I know it’s a peerless weapon, but you would be better off with a normal blade rather than Morzan’s butchery tool.”
“Perhaps. Saphira, where does our path go from here? Murtagh offered to come with us. I don’t know his past, but he seems honest enough. Should we go to the Varden now? Only I don’t know how to find them. Brom never told us.”
“He told me,” said Saphira.
Eragon grew angry. “Why did he trust you, but not me, with all this knowledge?”
Her scales rustled over the dry rock as she stood above him, eyes profound. “After we left Teirm and were attacked by the Urgals, he told me many things, some of which I will not speak of unless necessary. He was concerned about his own death and what would happen to you after it. One fact he imparted to me was the name of a man, Dormnad, who lives in Gil’ead. He can help us find the Varden. Brom also wanted you to know that of all the people in Alagaesia, he believed you were the best suited to inherit the Riders’ legacy.”
Tears welled in Eragon’s eyes. This was the highest praise he could have ever received from Brom. “A responsibility I will bear honorably.”
“Good.”
Clearly Brom has told Saphira of things that he wouldn’t want revealed to Eragon until he is mature enough. Eragon would undoubtedly be distraught enough after losing his mentor, and to find out that Brom is also his father would completely confuse and demoralize him at a time when survival is paramount.
Eldest page 656:
Saphira ruffled his hair with a gust of hot breath. “Just remember, whatever Brom’s reasons, he always tried to protect us from danger. He died saving you from the Ra’zac.”
“I know…. Do you think he didn’t tell me about this because he was afraid I might emulate Morzan, like Murtagh has?”
“Of course not.”
He looked at her, curious. “How can you be so certain?” She lifted her head high above him and refused to meet his eyes or to answer. “Have it your way, then.”
This is an enormously important quote. Saphira is waiting to tell Oromis/Glaedr (she might have done so already) about Brom being Eragon’s father. I think it’s a sure bet that Oromis will be the one to tell Eragon the truth. Just like in Book 1, Saphira knows that Eragon isn’t quite mature enough to receive this information.
Plus, if you look at it from a logistical standpoint, you’ll notice two things: 1) Inheritance is a coming-of-age story/trilogy, and Eragon shouldn’t (and hasn’t) come of age by the end of the second book and 2) Christopher Paolini just dropped a huge bombshell a mere 4 pages ago that Morzan is Eragon’s father – that would be absolutely horrendous writing to reveal something like that and then change it 4 pages later. This “revelation” is the big twist at the end of the novel. It’s just that we’ll find out that it wasn’t really a twist after all.
There is a chapter in Eldest titled “Inheritance.” In it, Murtagh takes Zar’roc from Eragon and claims it as his inheritance. This conveniently leaves Eragon without a sword. In the third book Eragon will get his inheritance and his proper rider’s sword (meaning that it matches the color of his dragon).
We are never told what happens to Brom’s sword. It is only mentioned indirectly when Eragon converses with the elf sword maker Rhunon. She mentions that there are only two of her swords left (other than Morzan’s and Oromis’), and they happen to each be held by two elven families. One is Brom’s, and the other is likely a green sword that will go to the rider of the green dragon.
This makes Brom’s sword Eragon’s inheritance, and this is the Inheritance Trilogy, after all.
However, there are some other questions that must still be answered. For example, why, if Brom was Eragon’s father, would he not raise his own son while both live in Carvahall? And why would Brom never tell Eragon that he was his father?
In response to those two questions: there was no evidence whatsoever to imply that Eragon would be a rider in his early life. Brom was there in Carvahall to watch over him, and he did teach his son all about the old ways. When Eragon went to Brom’s to ask him questions about the riders Brom answered all of his questions. One of the best ways to teach is through stories, and in order to have Eragon learn more he had to be interested in riders and their history. I also think that if Brom said that he was Eragon’s father and a Rider, Eragon would be a whole lot less likely to believe that the riders really did exist and that they had fallen. If you’re told that all of the riders are dead, except that this ordinary storyteller that everyone’s known for 15 years is one, the stories would be a whole lot less credible.
There’s also the fact that if Brom told Eragon that he was his father, other people in Carvahall would probably find out and word of it might leak back to Galbatorix. If Galbatorix found out that the last remaining rider and his son were living in Carvahall, I believe he would have left Uru’baen and gone out to destroy the village.
Thirdly, if Eragon knew that Brom was his father, he could possibly reveal it when someone enters his head (like the twins) and the odds were reasonable (and it actually happened in the book) that the one(s) who find out that Eragon is Brom’s son worked for Galbatorix. If Galbatorix found out that the newest rider that wasn’t under his control was the son of Brom, he would have to assume that he was raised by Brom, and was the beneficiary of a lifetime of teaching by Brom. Since we know Brom was powerful and strong enough to have a hand in the deaths of eight of the Forsworn, his lifetime knowledge passed down to his son would make Eragon a much more deadly enemy than if Eragon was raised by a random farmer and never had any contact with Brom. If Galbatorix believed that Eragon was Brom’s son, he himself would have flown to the battle at the end of Eldest, and it would have been a forgone conclusion.
And the big question: if Brom is indeed Eragon’s father, then how on earth would he and Selena have a chance to “make” Eragon?
The potential for an affair comes to mind, or for a king Arthur-type situation. Or, as we don’t know exactly how long Selena was missing from the castle (“many months” is a very unclear length of time), she could have met Brom and fallen in love with him after running from the castle. Bear in mind that around the time of Selena’s disappearance, Morzan was off searching for Saphira’s egg, which had just been stolen, so would not have been around the castle or seeing Selena at any time. And that give Brom ample opportunity to see her.

Remember these? Just before his death, Brom tells Eragon seven words in the ancient language, then what they mean, and then he tells them only to use the words in great need. What these words could possibly be, however, is open to much interpretation.
The first theory is that these words are Eragon’s (or someone else’s) true name, yet this is unlikely for many reasons, first because seven words is far too long to be a person’s name, second because telling a person their true name can be incredibly dangerous, and third, how on earth would Brom know? Instead of that, it could be possible that these words have something to do with the Menoa tree, perhaps a way to communicate with it in some way. However, this seems unlikely because something like that would be more of an interest than something that should only be used in great need. Another theory is that the seven words are some sort of password to be told to the family in possession of Brom’s sword so they will know to give it to Eragon, but again, that does not sound like something that should be used, “only in great need.”
Another possibility is that what Brom told him is a spell that human dragon riders could use to boost their physical attributes to become equal to those of an elf, or perhaps the enchantments that Oromis uses to keep himself alive despite his sickness or how elves can sing to trees and other plants. That would explain why no elf knew of (or planned to teach Eragon) these spells, but Brom did. This seems unlikely, however, because Eragon has already had his attributes boosted to match those of an elf (thus making Brom’s words useless) and singing to trees doesn’t seem to be a very useful ability and especially not one that should only be used when the need is great.
The most likely (and simplest) explanation, of course, is that these seven words are a very powerful spell (of either destruction or healing) that, unfortunately, has a terrible energy cost or other price attached to it that means the spell should only be used in the most dire of situations. Of the two choices, destruction is much more likely.
The New Dwarf King
The question here is simple: Orik or someone else? The other dwarves seemed to be against Hrothgar and his pro-dragon policies; as Orik also seems pro-dragon, likely the other clan leaders (as Orik is Hrothgar’s heir, he will take control of Durgrimst Ingietum) will vote for one other than Orik as new king.
Unless, of course, something happens to change their minds before the election takes place. Now, it will be a while before a new dwarf king will be elected, as Hrothgar must be buried first, and he will have a long way to travel before he can be laid to rest. That gives Eragon and Saphira ample opportunity to do a variety of things, one of which will be Saphira healing the star sapphire. After Saphira fixes, “the heart of Tronjheim,” that likely will change the hearts of the dwarven clan leaders and cause them to act in the interest of their now pro-dragon people: to elect a pro-dragon candidate. And that candidate would be none other than Orik. However, the clan leaders likely will not act as one, and it will shape up to be a rather messy election.
So, expect Orik to become the king of his people, but the process may not be pretty.
Eragon’s Love
Who will Eragon fall in love with? It’s part of Angela’s prediction, that, “an epic romance is in your future, extraordinary, as the moon indicates—for that is a magical symbol—and strong enough to outlast empires. I cannot say if this passion will end happily, but your love is of noble birth and heritage. She is wise, powerful, and beautiful beyond compare.” So, there are two possibilities: either he will fall in love with Arya, or he will not.
If he does not fall in love with Arya, than who with? Or will he fall in love again at all? Some people claim that he will fall in love with Katrina, but that is simply idiotic: why on earth would he fall in love with a person who is already engaged to his brother? It makes no sense. Eragon will not fall in love with Katrina.
Another option, slightly more likely, is Nasuada. People have said that because Arya does not return Eragon’s love, it does not qualify as romance and therefore his epic romance is still to come. They also claim that she would fulfill the prophecy because, as leader of the Varden, she is certainly noble. However, this is not correct, for the prophecy reads, “of noble birth and heritage,” meaning that Nasuada would have to be born into nobility to fulfill it, and as she was merely born to a man who was fleeing from the empire and not some manner of royalty. But regardless of the prophecy, it still seems unlikely that Eragon and Nasuada will fall in love. After all, Nasuada has a rebellion to lead, and falling in love with one of her vassals is certainly going to disrupt the war effort.
And of course, the possibility remains that Eragon will never fall in love after ending his pursuit of Arya. But I believe that we will see more evidence connected to other theories that makes this option also very unlikely.
Now, it is of course the most likely that his love for Arya is the fulfillment of the prophecy, and when Saphira mates with the green dragon, ridden by Arya, that will influence Arya to fall in love with Eragon, and there will be the epic romance. And, of course, because they are both riders and therefore understand each other perfectly, this romance will have a happy result.

One of the most important questions concerning the future of Alagaesia: who will be Saphira’s mate? There are five possibilities, some more likely than others.
The first and least likely is Glaedr. The argument for him is that he is the only male dragon currently on the same side as Saphira, so when the situation begins to look bleak the two of them will have to mate to sustain their race. However, Glaedr has already refused Saphira once, and likely she’s learned her lesson and won’t try again.
Another possibility is that Saphira and Eragon will search for wild dragons, and Saphira will find one willing to be her mate. However, Saphira and Eragon are going to be busy with a war, and will have no time to go and search for other dragons, making this option also unlikely. It is possible that they could search after the war, there is another theory that essentially disproves this that I’ll get to later.
Thorn and Shruikan have pretty much the same chance, but the only real way for Saphira to mate with either of them would be if she were captured by Galbatorix. If captured, Saphira would be forced to mate with one of them, and there’s no way Saphira is strong enough to resist them. This is quite possible, but considering CP’s plot so far, it is not as likely as…
Saphira falling in love with the green dragon. Varden gets egg, egg hatches, green dragon matures, falls in love with Saphira, they mate. Sounds simple, is simple. If Saphira wants a mate on her side of the war and Glaedr isn’t going to, the only option for her is the green dragon.
The green dragon and Thorn or Shruikan are both equally likely based on the evidence, so you have to consider which is more likely based on what CP has written so far. Now, so far, nothing bad has happened to Saphira. That can mean one of two things: either nothing will happen to her, or she’s due for something bad to happen. But it’s more likely that nothing bad will happen to her, and she will fall in love and mate with the green dragon.
Who Will Die?
Who, exactly, of the major characters, is going to die? Obviously Galbatorix will; that goes without saying. It’s highly likely that Oromis and Glaedr will as well, Oromis from his mysterious disease and Glaedr from Oromis’ death. People also seem to think that Thorn will die, but Murtagh will not. It is certainly possible, as Murtagh is on the side of evil (if reluctantly), but Galbatorix will not make the mistake of leaving loopholes in his oaths again. That means that if Eragon and Murtagh meet again in battle, Eragon will be unable to show Murtagh any mercy. It is likely that Thorn will die, and Murtagh may as well, that is unclear. Whether the king’s dragon, Shruikan, will die is another debate. Some think that he will die along with Galbatorix, while others think that, because Galbatorix was not Shruikan’s original rider, the bond between the two will be weaker than normal, meaning that Shruikan will not only survive Galbatorix’s death but become good upon the death of his surrogate rider. As we have not yet seen Galbatorix or Shruikan, we cannot determine the strength of their bond and thus cannot determine the answer to this question, one way or another. However, Shruikan dying with his rider is more likely.
One of the strangest—and, even stranger, most popular—death theories is that Arya will die. But seriously, people. One of the most obvious things in this entire trilogy is that Arya will be the rider of the green dragon. And if she is that green dragon’s rider, and we know that there are two dragons in the sky in Eragon’s dream before Garrow’s death (more on that dream later, but it is rather obvious foreshadowing for the last scene of book three), that means that the riders of those two dragons (Saphira and the green dragon) must survive the war, and therefore Eragon and Arya will survive. And while we’re on the subject of main characters’ love interests dying, Katrina won’t die, either.
Of course, there will be some other casualties, namely a bunch of minor characters: several high-ranking Varden members (likely including Nasuada and Orrin), unimportant elves and servants of Galbatorix, villagers, etc.
Who Will Kill Galbatorix?
Yes, believe it or not, there are dissenting opinions regarding the answer to this question. The choice for Galbatorix’s killer is split between two people, one very obvious and one… rather odd: Eragon and Shruikan (if you think Murtagh will kill Galbatorix by throwing him into a bottomless pit filled with glowing blue electricity, please, for the sake of all mankind, commit hara-kiri… now).
Some people seem to think that Shruikan will turn good at the last moment possible and kill Galbatorix, typically by squishing him. However, this is highly unlikely. Regardless of how Shruikan originally felt about Galbatorix, the two of them have now been joined for a hundred years. Considering how much the two of them have been though in that time, it’s quite obvious that they care quite a lot for each other, and therefore Shruikan will not kill Galbatorix.
So that leaves one man to be Galbatorix’s killer: Eragon. As it should be.

The Ultimate Book Three Theory List
Written for Shurtugal.com by Carnoc
The views expressed here do not necessarily reflect the views of Shurtugal.com or its staff.
All right. A lot of people have a lot of different ideas for what is going to happen in book three. This is a list of all the reasonable theories I’ve come across in my long experience at Inheritance Forums, along with the evidence supporting and (sometimes) refuting them all.
A list of the theories I will be discussing:
The identity of the third rider
The weapon under the Menoa Tree
The Vault of Souls, its location and its contents
The true identity of Eragon’s father
Brom’s seven words
The new dwarf king
Eragon’s love
Saphira’s mate
Who will die?
Who will kill Galbatorix?
The new king of Alagaesia
What will happen at the end of the book?
Questions? Objections? More theories you want me to address? You are also free to contact a Shurtugal Staff member via the feedback form
So, without further ado, let’s jump right into the thick of things:
Who will ride the Green dragon?
Everyone’s biggest question. First, will it be good or evil? That the green dragon and his rider will be on the good side is expected; if the green dragon were evil, the Varden wouldn’t stand a chance. There are several candidates for the third rider, so here’s the list, in order from least likely to most likely:
Orik
The least likely candidate I’ve seen proposed to be the rider of the green dragon. People say he should be the last rider because then there would be the human Murtagh, the “elf” Eragon, and then the dwarf Orik. Supporting this theory is Orik’s apparent lack of fear when it comes to flying and the presence of Saphira herself.
However, there is significant evidence against the theory, namely the fact that dwarves were not included in the spell that links the dragons to elves and humans, which is what allows human and elf riders to exist. You could say that just as humans were added to the spell, dwarves could be, as well. And while that is certainly possible, you must look at the likelihood of it actually happening. First of all, what cause would there be to add dwarves to the spell in the first place? No reason immediately presents itself. Along with this, why would the dwarves wish to be added to the spell? A vast majority of them have no interest in even the slightest contact with dragons, and they (or at least a few of them) are aware that the elves and humans are on the decline because of their connection to the dragons, so why would the dwarves want to be connected and thus possibly seal their own fate of declining?
Therefore, Orik will most likely not be the rider of the green dragon.
Elva
Only slightly more likely than Orik for the simple reason that she’s human, and thus it’s currently possible for her to become a rider. Evidence for her comes first in the form of the dragon-mark Saphira placed on her forehead, and second from Eragon’s blessing, which should bring her to do great things in her life.
However, even in her present, magically enhanced state, she is quite simply too young to be a rider, much less a useful one. Sure, maybe she could use her magic to make herself old enough, but you must keep in mind Eragon’s promise to Angela: that he would remove the blessing/curse that he placed over her. And once he removes the magic from her, she will once again be an infant child, and that would mean that she will have no contact with the dragon egg.
So maybe, if there are more dragon eggs in the future, Elva will become a rider later in life. But it’s incredibly unlikely that she will be the rider the green dragon.
A character that has yet to be introduced
It’s always possible that CP could introduce a new character in book three and have that character be the rider of the green dragon. However, this is highly unlikely because both of our present riders of the new generation, Eragon and Murtagh, were introduced in the first book and had already received significant character development by the time they were riders. If a new character were to become the rider of the green dragon with substantially less development than the other candidates… I’m sure that many of us would be less than satisfied.
So, it’s unlikely that any newly introduced character will be the rider of the green dragon.
Roran
Now we reach the group of four characters who are the most likely to become the rider of the green dragon. The main evidence people suggest for him is that, as Murtagh and Eragon apparently have the blood of a rider in them, Roran, who they claim also has the blood of a rider in him, should be one as well. This is wrong, however, as Roran is only related to Morzan (the rider he is supposedly getting blood from) because of Selena’s marriage to Morzan, and therefore does not have any blood relation to the man.
Counting against Roran is first the fact that he is human and second the fact that he is male. More on why being male counts against him will come later, but here is a good place to address why being a human is bad for his chances of being the rider of the green dragon. Now, Eragon spent about four months training with Brom and about ten months training with Oromis, and even after all that time and training, Murtagh was still able to beat him, with apparent ease. For Roran to be effective in battle, he would likely have to train for even longer that, and that’s an amount of time that the Varden just doesn’t have in this war. It’s likely that the Empire could win the war in that amount of time.
So, it’s possible but not probable that Roran will be the rider of the green dragon.
Nasuada
The third most likely choice for the rider of the green dragon. Nasuada is likely for several reasons: first, she’s female. Presently every rider that’s alive is male, a rather unbalanced situation. That makes the market for a female rider that much more open. Second, she’s the leader of the Varden, and being in such an important position, she’d likely have access to the egg, once stolen, before all members of the Varden aside from those who do the actual stealing. A third point some people bring up is that she could be related to Eragon and Murtagh (highly unlikely, borderline impossible—more on that in a moment), and because they are both riders, she should be as well.
The main argument against Nasuada is the simple fact that she’s human, as is the case with Roran above. But along with that, it must be considered that Nasuada commands the Varden’s armies. The Varden cannot afford for their army to be without a commander for such a length of time.
Now, to address why she cannot be related to Murtagh or Eragon: if she’s related to them, it’s obviously through Selena, as we know her father was Ajihad. However, it must be considered that, first of all, Nasuada and Murtagh are approximately the same age. Yes, I know that twins are possible, but how does a woman manage to have two children by two different fathers growing in her womb at the same time? Answer: it’s impossible. There’s more evidence, but after that explanation there’s really no need to elaborate. Nasuada is not at all related to Eragon and Murtagh.
So, it’s possible but not probable that Nasuada will be the rider of the green dragon.
Vanir
Vanir is likely for the same reason that Nasuada is unlikely: he is an elf. The fact that he is an elf means that he is already trained in the ways of magic, and that means that, were he to become the rider of the green dragon, he would need significantly less training than any human candidate.
Against Vanir is the fact that he is male. Not that this last dragon is sexist, but as Saphira has told Eragon, whoever she or Eragon loves will affect the feelings of the other. So if Saphira falls in love with the green dragon (which is very likely—more on that later), her love for the green dragon would cause Eragon to develop feelings towards the green dragon. However, because a human can’t have feelings of that sort for a dragon, his emotions would be directed towards someone more accessible: the green dragon’s rider. It does seem likely that Eragon will develop a relationship with someone in the third book, and even more likely that that someone will be the green rider, and that he will have a child with that partner, for that reason the third rider is likely to be female.
So, it’s possible that Vanir will be the rider of the green dragon.
Arya
Arya is the most likely candidate to become the rider of the green dragon. First, there is the fact that she is an elf, and a strong and talented elf at that. From what we’ve seen of her skills both with magic and with the sword, she would require very little training to be useful in battle, merely enough time for the green dragon to become mature enough to fight well in battle, which would be as soon as the green dragon learned to breathe fire, around six months after hatching. Along with that, Arya is female, and not just that but Eragon’s love interest. If Saphira were to fall in love with and mate with the green dragon, that would change Arya’s feelings for Eragon and the two of them would fall in love, as well. Third, two of the most often mentioned facts about Arya are her eye and magic color: emerald green. While eye color certainly has nothing to do with becoming a dragon rider, all of the riders we’ve seen so far in the trilogy have possessed magic the color of his dragon. While there is no evidence that this is always true, it can be interpreted as foreshadowing to her upcoming relation to the green dragon.
The main piece of evidence against Arya is that people claim she is too old. However, there is no evidence that there is a set age limit for becoming a rider, so such a point is meaningless.
So, it is highly likely that Arya will be the rider of the green dragon.
The Weapon Under the Menoa Tree
Ah, Solembum’s words. “When the time comes and you need a weapon, look under the roots of the Menoa tree. But what will this weapon be?
Some say that Eragon has already received his weapon: his transformation at the Agaeti Blodhren. They say that he was under the Menoa tree when he was transformed, and because of this, the transformation was his weapon.
However, this is likely not the case for the simple reason that it does not match up with Solembum’s words. First, he must be looking for this weapon, and at that time he certainly was not attempting to find a weapon, he was just watching the ceremony. And along with this, the weapon may have been under the Menoa tree, but it was not under the roots of the Menoa tree, which Solembum specified as criteria for this weapon. So, his transformation likely was not the weapon.
No, it’s much more likely that the weapon will be just that: an actual, physical weapon. Say, a sword or, more specifically, Brom’s sword. Remember, it’s said that Brom lost his sword. Seems like an odd place to lose it, though, under a huge tree far from where the fighting during the Fall (the time when he most likely lost his sword) took place. But then, that’s why we must look someplace else: in this case, the dictionary.
Look at the definition for, “root.” In my dictionary, the #3 definition is the word, “origin.” Therefore, instead of looking under the physical roots themselves, Eragon must look to the origins of the Menoa tree: two old elven families, both of which are in possession of the swords of old riders that they salvaged from the wreckage of the battles of the Fall. One elven family will have Brom’s sword, which they will gladly give to Eragon when he comes to see them. As for the other elven family with a sword… They’ll give it the third rider, whose green dragon will match the sword in their possession.
The Vault of Souls, its Location and its Contents
Once again, it’s time to look at what Solembum has told Eragon. “Then, when all seems lost and your power is insufficient, go to the rock of Kuthian and speak your name to open the Vault of Souls.”
Where is the Vault of Souls, first of all? Some say that it is on Doru Areaba, the great city of the riders. Others say that it is the Star Sapphire of Tronjheim. However, there is one location that seems much more likely: Helgrind.
Now, if you examine the description of Helgrind, you’ll notice that it looks strikingly similar to a rock formation in New Mexico known as Ship Rock. If you switch the words around a bit, you get… Rock of Ship. Looks a bit like the Rock of Kuthain, doesn’t it? The other reasons for Helgrind to be the likely location of the Rock of Kuthain become clear later, in the discussion of the contents of the Vault of Souls.
So, then we move onto the likely contents of the Vault of Souls. Sounds pretty basic, doesn’t it? It’s a vault… containing souls. But for what purpose, and from where? Remember when Eragon was fighting Murtagh? He discovers that Murtagh’s mind seemingly contains multitudes—multitudes of souls. So clearly, Murtagh is drawing his power from other souls along with his own, and if he was taught by Galbatorix, then it stands to reason that Galbatorix does, as well.
But where do the souls come from? Well, if we’re supposing that the Vault of Souls is in Helgrind, that immediately reminds us of another sinister pair of characters: the Ra’zac. Now, the Ra’zac are the king’s personal dragon hunters, and also are creatures meant to prey on humans. So, it’s clear that these Ra’zac do a lot of killing. But instead of letting all the power of a soul go to waste, why not find a way to store it, instead? Say, to use a spell that, instead of destroying the soul of those killed by the Ra’zac, instead stores it in a handy vault: a Vault of Souls. This explains why Galbatorix is seemingly impossibly getting stronger every year: every time the Ra’zac kill a person, that soul is added to the Vault and Galbatorix (and now Murtagh, as well) become more powerful. Of course, the Vault of Souls is also a physical place, so why not throw in any dragon eggs for safekeeping? Namely, that of the green dragon.
And said contents explain why opening the vault will be so important: not only will it give the Varden access to another dragon egg and soon another rider, but it will also make Galbatorix and Murtagh both substantially less powerful, and give Eragon a fair chance at beating one or both of them (with help from the green dragon’s rider, of course).
The True Identity of Eragon’s Father
Hear me out on this one. A lot of you are screaming one very misinformed and meaningless thing right now: “Murtagh said that Morzan was his father in the ancient language, and since you can’t lie in the ancient language, Morzan must be his father!” However, this is not at all true, and in reality Morzan is not Eragon’s father. It is Brom.
First, you must understand that it is possible to tell an untruth in the ancient language. You see, just because Murtagh said it in the AL doesn’t mean that it’s true, just that he believed it was true. That was the entire reason Eragon wrote a poem for the Agaeti Blodhren: so Islanzadi could tell Eragon that it was possible to tell untruths in the AL, if you really believed that they were true. So because Murtagh has seen no evidence showing that Eragon could not also be a son of Morzan, and because they do share a mother, he believes that Eragon was also the son of Morzan.
Now, for the extensive evidence:
P. 546
“Son and Father alike, both blind as bats”.
This is about betrayal. Brom was blind to Morzan’s betrayal, and Eragon was blind to Murtagh’s betrayal.
Consider this quote from page 280 of Eldest: (Oromis) “Morzan was my greatest failure. Brom idolized him. He never left his side, never contradicted him, and never believed that he could best Morzan in any venture. Morzan, I’m ashamed to admit-for it was within my power to stop-was aware of this and took advantage of Brom’s devotion in a hundred different ways. He grew so proud and cruel that I considered separating him from Brom. But before I could, Morzan helped Galbatorix to steal a dragon hatchling, Shruikan, to replace the one Galbatorix had lost, killing the dragon’s original rider in the process. Morzan and Galbatorix then fled together, sealing our doom.”
“You cannot begin to fathom the effect Morzan’s betrayal had on Brom until you understand the depth of Brom’s affection for him. And when Galbatorix at last revealed himself and the Forsworn killed Brom’s dragon, Brom focused all of his anger and pain on the one who he felt was responsible for the destruction of his world: Morzan.”
I think that sums it up.
Riddle #3 – This is the most important one
p. 546
“While two may share two,
And one of two is certainly one,
One might be two.”
While two sons (Eragon and Murtagh) “may” share the same two parents (Morzan and Selena),
And one parent of two parents, the Mother-Selena, is certainly the same one parent of both sons,
One parent, the Father, might be two Fathers (Brom and Morzan) each having one of the sons.
What in the world could this riddle be about if it doesn’t support the two-father theory?
One last fact: Blagden never met Morzan so he could not have been talking about him. Morzan was never blind. He knew exactly what he was doing. He was after power. Brom was the only one who was blind by his insane idolization of Morzan.
Eragon pages 281-282:
While they spoke, Saphira crawled into the cave and greeted Eragon. She was glad to see him, but there was deep sadness in her thoughts and words. She laid her big blue head on the floor and asked, “Are you well again?”
“Not quite.”
“I miss the old one.”
“As do I… I never suspected that he was a rider. Brom! He really was an old man – as old as the Forsworn. Everything he taught me about magic he must have learned from the riders themselves.”
Saphira shifted slightly. “I knew what he was the moment he touched me at your farm.”
“And you didn’t tell me? Why?”
“He asked me not to,” she said simply.
Eragon decided not to make an issue of it. Saphira never meant to hurt him. “Brom kept more than that secret,” he told her, then explained about Zar’roc and Murtagh’s reaction to it. “I understand now why Brom didn’t explain Zar’roc’s origins when he gave it to me. If he had, I probably would have run away from him at the first opportunity.”
“You would do well to rid yourself of that sword,” she said with distaste. “I know it’s a peerless weapon, but you would be better off with a normal blade rather than Morzan’s butchery tool.”
“Perhaps. Saphira, where does our path go from here? Murtagh offered to come with us. I don’t know his past, but he seems honest enough. Should we go to the Varden now? Only I don’t know how to find them. Brom never told us.”
“He told me,” said Saphira.
Eragon grew angry. “Why did he trust you, but not me, with all this knowledge?”
Her scales rustled over the dry rock as she stood above him, eyes profound. “After we left Teirm and were attacked by the Urgals, he told me many things, some of which I will not speak of unless necessary. He was concerned about his own death and what would happen to you after it. One fact he imparted to me was the name of a man, Dormnad, who lives in Gil’ead. He can help us find the Varden. Brom also wanted you to know that of all the people in Alagaesia, he believed you were the best suited to inherit the Riders’ legacy.”
Tears welled in Eragon’s eyes. This was the highest praise he could have ever received from Brom. “A responsibility I will bear honorably.”
“Good.”
Clearly Brom has told Saphira of things that he wouldn’t want revealed to Eragon until he is mature enough. Eragon would undoubtedly be distraught enough after losing his mentor, and to find out that Brom is also his father would completely confuse and demoralize him at a time when survival is paramount.
Eldest page 656:
Saphira ruffled his hair with a gust of hot breath. “Just remember, whatever Brom’s reasons, he always tried to protect us from danger. He died saving you from the Ra’zac.”
“I know…. Do you think he didn’t tell me about this because he was afraid I might emulate Morzan, like Murtagh has?”
“Of course not.”
He looked at her, curious. “How can you be so certain?” She lifted her head high above him and refused to meet his eyes or to answer. “Have it your way, then.”
This is an enormously important quote. Saphira is waiting to tell Oromis/Glaedr (she might have done so already) about Brom being Eragon’s father. I think it’s a sure bet that Oromis will be the one to tell Eragon the truth. Just like in Book 1, Saphira knows that Eragon isn’t quite mature enough to receive this information.
Plus, if you look at it from a logistical standpoint, you’ll notice two things: 1) Inheritance is a coming-of-age story/trilogy, and Eragon shouldn’t (and hasn’t) come of age by the end of the second book and 2) Christopher Paolini just dropped a huge bombshell a mere 4 pages ago that Morzan is Eragon’s father – that would be absolutely horrendous writing to reveal something like that and then change it 4 pages later. This “revelation” is the big twist at the end of the novel. It’s just that we’ll find out that it wasn’t really a twist after all.
There is a chapter in Eldest titled “Inheritance.” In it, Murtagh takes Zar’roc from Eragon and claims it as his inheritance. This conveniently leaves Eragon without a sword. In the third book Eragon will get his inheritance and his proper rider’s sword (meaning that it matches the color of his dragon).
We are never told what happens to Brom’s sword. It is only mentioned indirectly when Eragon converses with the elf sword maker Rhunon. She mentions that there are only two of her swords left (other than Morzan’s and Oromis’), and they happen to each be held by two elven families. One is Brom’s, and the other is likely a green sword that will go to the rider of the green dragon.
This makes Brom’s sword Eragon’s inheritance, and this is the Inheritance Trilogy, after all.
However, there are some other questions that must still be answered. For example, why, if Brom was Eragon’s father, would he not raise his own son while both live in Carvahall? And why would Brom never tell Eragon that he was his father?
In response to those two questions: there was no evidence whatsoever to imply that Eragon would be a rider in his early life. Brom was there in Carvahall to watch over him, and he did teach his son all about the old ways. When Eragon went to Brom’s to ask him questions about the riders Brom answered all of his questions. One of the best ways to teach is through stories, and in order to have Eragon learn more he had to be interested in riders and their history. I also think that if Brom said that he was Eragon’s father and a Rider, Eragon would be a whole lot less likely to believe that the riders really did exist and that they had fallen. If you’re told that all of the riders are dead, except that this ordinary storyteller that everyone’s known for 15 years is one, the stories would be a whole lot less credible.
There’s also the fact that if Brom told Eragon that he was his father, other people in Carvahall would probably find out and word of it might leak back to Galbatorix. If Galbatorix found out that the last remaining rider and his son were living in Carvahall, I believe he would have left Uru’baen and gone out to destroy the village.
Thirdly, if Eragon knew that Brom was his father, he could possibly reveal it when someone enters his head (like the twins) and the odds were reasonable (and it actually happened in the book) that the one(s) who find out that Eragon is Brom’s son worked for Galbatorix. If Galbatorix found out that the newest rider that wasn’t under his control was the son of Brom, he would have to assume that he was raised by Brom, and was the beneficiary of a lifetime of teaching by Brom. Since we know Brom was powerful and strong enough to have a hand in the deaths of eight of the Forsworn, his lifetime knowledge passed down to his son would make Eragon a much more deadly enemy than if Eragon was raised by a random farmer and never had any contact with Brom. If Galbatorix believed that Eragon was Brom’s son, he himself would have flown to the battle at the end of Eldest, and it would have been a forgone conclusion.
And the big question: if Brom is indeed Eragon’s father, then how on earth would he and Selena have a chance to “make” Eragon?
The potential for an affair comes to mind, or for a king Arthur-type situation. Or, as we don’t know exactly how long Selena was missing from the castle (“many months” is a very unclear length of time), she could have met Brom and fallen in love with him after running from the castle. Bear in mind that around the time of Selena’s disappearance, Morzan was off searching for Saphira’s egg, which had just been stolen, so would not have been around the castle or seeing Selena at any time. And that give Brom ample opportunity to see her.
Brom’s Seven Words
Remember these? Just before his death, Brom tells Eragon seven words in the ancient language, then what they mean, and then he tells them only to use the words in great need. What these words could possibly be, however, is open to much interpretation.
The first theory is that these words are Eragon’s (or someone else’s) true name, yet this is unlikely for many reasons, first because seven words is far too long to be a person’s name, second because telling a person their true name can be incredibly dangerous, and third, how on earth would Brom know? Instead of that, it could be possible that these words have something to do with the Menoa tree, perhaps a way to communicate with it in some way. However, this seems unlikely because something like that would be more of an interest than something that should only be used in great need. Another theory is that the seven words are some sort of password to be told to the family in possession of Brom’s sword so they will know to give it to Eragon, but again, that does not sound like something that should be used, “only in great need.”
Another possibility is that what Brom told him is a spell that human dragon riders could use to boost their physical attributes to become equal to those of an elf, or perhaps the enchantments that Oromis uses to keep himself alive despite his sickness or how elves can sing to trees and other plants. That would explain why no elf knew of (or planned to teach Eragon) these spells, but Brom did. This seems unlikely, however, because Eragon has already had his attributes boosted to match those of an elf (thus making Brom’s words useless) and singing to trees doesn’t seem to be a very useful ability and especially not one that should only be used when the need is great.
The most likely (and simplest) explanation, of course, is that these seven words are a very powerful spell (of either destruction or healing) that, unfortunately, has a terrible energy cost or other price attached to it that means the spell should only be used in the most dire of situations. Of the two choices, destruction is much more likely.
The New Dwarf King
The question here is simple: Orik or someone else? The other dwarves seemed to be against Hrothgar and his pro-dragon policies; as Orik also seems pro-dragon, likely the other clan leaders (as Orik is Hrothgar’s heir, he will take control of Durgrimst Ingietum) will vote for one other than Orik as new king.
Unless, of course, something happens to change their minds before the election takes place. Now, it will be a while before a new dwarf king will be elected, as Hrothgar must be buried first, and he will have a long way to travel before he can be laid to rest. That gives Eragon and Saphira ample opportunity to do a variety of things, one of which will be Saphira healing the star sapphire. After Saphira fixes, “the heart of Tronjheim,” that likely will change the hearts of the dwarven clan leaders and cause them to act in the interest of their now pro-dragon people: to elect a pro-dragon candidate. And that candidate would be none other than Orik. However, the clan leaders likely will not act as one, and it will shape up to be a rather messy election.
So, expect Orik to become the king of his people, but the process may not be pretty.
Eragon’s Love
Who will Eragon fall in love with? It’s part of Angela’s prediction, that, “an epic romance is in your future, extraordinary, as the moon indicates—for that is a magical symbol—and strong enough to outlast empires. I cannot say if this passion will end happily, but your love is of noble birth and heritage. She is wise, powerful, and beautiful beyond compare.” So, there are two possibilities: either he will fall in love with Arya, or he will not.
If he does not fall in love with Arya, than who with? Or will he fall in love again at all? Some people claim that he will fall in love with Katrina, but that is simply idiotic: why on earth would he fall in love with a person who is already engaged to his brother? It makes no sense. Eragon will not fall in love with Katrina.
Another option, slightly more likely, is Nasuada. People have said that because Arya does not return Eragon’s love, it does not qualify as romance and therefore his epic romance is still to come. They also claim that she would fulfill the prophecy because, as leader of the Varden, she is certainly noble. However, this is not correct, for the prophecy reads, “of noble birth and heritage,” meaning that Nasuada would have to be born into nobility to fulfill it, and as she was merely born to a man who was fleeing from the empire and not some manner of royalty. But regardless of the prophecy, it still seems unlikely that Eragon and Nasuada will fall in love. After all, Nasuada has a rebellion to lead, and falling in love with one of her vassals is certainly going to disrupt the war effort.
And of course, the possibility remains that Eragon will never fall in love after ending his pursuit of Arya. But I believe that we will see more evidence connected to other theories that makes this option also very unlikely.
Now, it is of course the most likely that his love for Arya is the fulfillment of the prophecy, and when Saphira mates with the green dragon, ridden by Arya, that will influence Arya to fall in love with Eragon, and there will be the epic romance. And, of course, because they are both riders and therefore understand each other perfectly, this romance will have a happy result.
Saphira’s Mate
One of the most important questions concerning the future of Alagaesia: who will be Saphira’s mate? There are five possibilities, some more likely than others.
The first and least likely is Glaedr. The argument for him is that he is the only male dragon currently on the same side as Saphira, so when the situation begins to look bleak the two of them will have to mate to sustain their race. However, Glaedr has already refused Saphira once, and likely she’s learned her lesson and won’t try again.
Another possibility is that Saphira and Eragon will search for wild dragons, and Saphira will find one willing to be her mate. However, Saphira and Eragon are going to be busy with a war, and will have no time to go and search for other dragons, making this option also unlikely. It is possible that they could search after the war, there is another theory that essentially disproves this that I’ll get to later.
Thorn and Shruikan have pretty much the same chance, but the only real way for Saphira to mate with either of them would be if she were captured by Galbatorix. If captured, Saphira would be forced to mate with one of them, and there’s no way Saphira is strong enough to resist them. This is quite possible, but considering CP’s plot so far, it is not as likely as…
Saphira falling in love with the green dragon. Varden gets egg, egg hatches, green dragon matures, falls in love with Saphira, they mate. Sounds simple, is simple. If Saphira wants a mate on her side of the war and Glaedr isn’t going to, the only option for her is the green dragon.
The green dragon and Thorn or Shruikan are both equally likely based on the evidence, so you have to consider which is more likely based on what CP has written so far. Now, so far, nothing bad has happened to Saphira. That can mean one of two things: either nothing will happen to her, or she’s due for something bad to happen. But it’s more likely that nothing bad will happen to her, and she will fall in love and mate with the green dragon.
Who Will Die?
Who, exactly, of the major characters, is going to die? Obviously Galbatorix will; that goes without saying. It’s highly likely that Oromis and Glaedr will as well, Oromis from his mysterious disease and Glaedr from Oromis’ death. People also seem to think that Thorn will die, but Murtagh will not. It is certainly possible, as Murtagh is on the side of evil (if reluctantly), but Galbatorix will not make the mistake of leaving loopholes in his oaths again. That means that if Eragon and Murtagh meet again in battle, Eragon will be unable to show Murtagh any mercy. It is likely that Thorn will die, and Murtagh may as well, that is unclear. Whether the king’s dragon, Shruikan, will die is another debate. Some think that he will die along with Galbatorix, while others think that, because Galbatorix was not Shruikan’s original rider, the bond between the two will be weaker than normal, meaning that Shruikan will not only survive Galbatorix’s death but become good upon the death of his surrogate rider. As we have not yet seen Galbatorix or Shruikan, we cannot determine the strength of their bond and thus cannot determine the answer to this question, one way or another. However, Shruikan dying with his rider is more likely.
One of the strangest—and, even stranger, most popular—death theories is that Arya will die. But seriously, people. One of the most obvious things in this entire trilogy is that Arya will be the rider of the green dragon. And if she is that green dragon’s rider, and we know that there are two dragons in the sky in Eragon’s dream before Garrow’s death (more on that dream later, but it is rather obvious foreshadowing for the last scene of book three), that means that the riders of those two dragons (Saphira and the green dragon) must survive the war, and therefore Eragon and Arya will survive. And while we’re on the subject of main characters’ love interests dying, Katrina won’t die, either.
Of course, there will be some other casualties, namely a bunch of minor characters: several high-ranking Varden members (likely including Nasuada and Orrin), unimportant elves and servants of Galbatorix, villagers, etc.
Who Will Kill Galbatorix?
Yes, believe it or not, there are dissenting opinions regarding the answer to this question. The choice for Galbatorix’s killer is split between two people, one very obvious and one… rather odd: Eragon and Shruikan (if you think Murtagh will kill Galbatorix by throwing him into a bottomless pit filled with glowing blue electricity, please, for the sake of all mankind, commit hara-kiri… now).
Some people seem to think that Shruikan will turn good at the last moment possible and kill Galbatorix, typically by squishing him. However, this is highly unlikely. Regardless of how Shruikan originally felt about Galbatorix, the two of them have now been joined for a hundred years. Considering how much the two of them have been though in that time, it’s quite obvious that they care quite a lot for each other, and therefore Shruikan will not kill Galbatorix.
So that leaves one man to be Galbatorix’s killer: Eragon. As it should be.
The New Ruler of Alagaesia
With Galbatorix dead, who will rule Alagaesia in his place? It clearly will not be Eragon, for he will leave Alagaesia forever, as Angela predicted, and how can he rule a place when he is no longer there? And besides that, he has already expressed that he does not want to rule.
The new ruler will not be an elf or dwarf. They already have their own rulers in their own kingdoms, so that just leaves the humans to decide who will rule. So to determine that, we must look to the past rulers of humans in Alagaesia: king Palancar and his descendants. And where did the descendants of Palancar dwell before they were driven out by the soldiers of the king? Palancar valley or, more specifically, Carvahall. So, who is in charge of Carvahall? Roran. So he will rule Alagaesia as his ancestors did, with Katrina as his queen.

May 10, 2007 at 10:02 pm
here is some of it
Title
Marie Lou Secret Service
The case of the new neighbors
Marie watched attentively out her bedroom window as the dirty white moving truck quickly pulled away leaving behind a cloud of gray smoke. It had a large sign saying MOE’S MOVERS in bold orange letters. She watched it turn to the corner and leave. All of a sudden a finger tapped her shoulder. It was her best friend Shea Robinson. She shouted in surprise “EEEK!” Shea laughed at her friend’s response. “So what’cha doing Sherlock? Any new cases?” Marie said to her friend as she showed her a week old newspaper “The museum of American history had a small portrait of George Washington that was worth millions. It disappeared exactly a week before today and now the old leaky house next door was sold and we have new neighbors. There is something wrong with that picture. No one wanted to buy that ancient rickety shack six months ago after that old cat-lady died. Everyone thought it was haunted. So I was wondering if this guy has anything to do with the disappearance of a very valuable historical artifact. I’m taking this case free of charge” Shea responded “There is nothing on this green Earth that will make me take this case with you. Even the cops don’t have a clue to where the suspect is or how they could have escaped. How are we supposed to find the bad guys?! We are dealing with the BLAK MARCKET here not just some kiddy crap. We won’t even get paid!” Marie contemplated on her friends words for a while then finally retaliated “Coward. We could have been heroes. I guess I’ll have all the fame and fortune.” She knew this new case would be a challenge, very different from the lost toys and who ate the last cookie cases she had done before. This one actually involved a felony. She needed al the help she could get. Shea agreed to one condition, if anything goes wrong it’s all Marie’s fault. Marie knew her friend wouldn’t do that to her, but Shea would have felt better if that was decided. That evening Marie made cookies and brought them to the old house to greet the new neighbors. Wink, wink. This tall man with dark brown hair, brown eyes, tan skin, bushy black eye brows that seemed to always frown, a blue T-shirt, and jeans, suddenly opened the door after Marie had only knocked on the door once. He had a suspicious look in his eye. Marie introduced herself and he told her his name. He accepted the cookies and rather rudely departed back into the house rapidly but not fast enough to hide a large trunk that he had been haggling about where to put it with the movers earlier. It was covered to conceal its identity with a white canvas but was taken off now. Marie rapidly wrote down some notes in her hand held red notepad:
Case of the new neighbors
Employee: me
Questions: What did Mr. Flimhouse put in the trunk? And
Does it have anything to do with the stolen artifact in museum a week ago?

May 10, 2007 at 11:23 pm

May 10, 2007 at 11:55 pm
greetings in puerto rico!!!
got a theory just 2 PO ebrithil:
consider Eragon’s name; that of the first dragon rider….
in eragon its implied that next to nobody knows about the riders…
so, if Brom was eragons father, it would make perfect sence, since brom was a rider,2!!!
🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
May 10, 2007 at 11:55 pm
mom is starting to nag me to get off. i have to leave. see ya tomorrow. 😉 🙂
May 10, 2007 at 11:57 pm

May 11, 2007 at 12:04 am
yeh,really…
dwarf girl, i think galby knew murtough would tell eragon who he THOUGHT their father was, so i think
a) he mighta done it to devistate eragon (if this is the case, it WORKED)
or
b) he doesnt know that brom is eragons dad
ithink it was a
BTW, u can call me brom- thats what my school friends call me :0 🙂 😉 &)

May 11, 2007 at 12:57 am
Were you talking about me being a boy? I am not! That’s why on the other site I was so mad at someone saying a girl can’t be a rider. I live in Oregon and I’m 12. I hate it here, too much rain. I love it, Dwarf Girl!! My story is about twins who hardly knew anything about their life and they thought that their dad was dead, but one day he showed up and took them away from Earth to a land called Shacana and find out that their dragon riders. It doesn’t have a title. I love sites where people just talk about what they like. I’ll come back later. And you guys talk a lot!! It wasn’t like I left and came back tomorrow, it was just a few hours.
Vollar Hljodhrc
May 11, 2007 at 1:00 am
Lucky… you get puppies! I watch football sometimes. I love old cars. I’m not what some girls would call normal. Almost every girl I meet is like “Where’s your makeup? You need to do something with your hair” and stuff. And I say “Dude, it’s just blah” A LOT… I hope you didn’t go yet, DR. Well, I’ll stay on just in case.
May 11, 2007 at 1:09 am
dont worry im 16 so i should feel left out
May 11, 2007 at 1:12 am
Vollar Hljodhrc (i finally spelled it right) SO SORRY. idk, i gues i just assumed you were a guy. I AM SO SORRY. My dad has a mustang (i can’t recall the year) but it is AWSOME. he is off racing in SLC right now. I agree on the every girl is all about clothes, hair, and boys. IT DRIVES ME CRAZY!
May 11, 2007 at 1:14 am
Don’t take this offensively, but your “voice” sounds like a guy. just the words you use, the way u say things. I really am sorry tho. PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!!!
May 11, 2007 at 1:18 am
There’s nothing to forgive. It’s the computer, anyone can make mistakes. I just try to use proper grammar so I don’t misspell words in my story. I thought you were a guy for the longest time, too(no offense). I’m glad I can “talk” to you anyway.
May 11, 2007 at 1:24 am
Ok, this is one of my stories. It is a prologue. Tell me what you all think of it! AND if you have any suggestions on a title, i am wide open…..
**************************************************************
Prologue: Attack
The moon shone brightly on the large city of Drega. A deep silence made the air clear and sharp. A dark shadow rose up and broke off from the horizon, continuing into the sky till it rose up in front of the moon, casting shadows darkly throughout the city. It dove down sharply; streamlining towards the city. A horn bugled somewhere in the distance and the streets came alive with light and sound. Men jumped into action, grabbing weapons and armor. The creature still came down, gaining speed as it went. More rose up behind it, all heading in a strait dive for the city.
A horrific roar erupted from out of the ground. A metal grate in the center of the city opened slowly and people fled from the town square. Flames burst out of the hole and two dozen dragons sprang out, flapping their wings and gaining altitude as they went. The men on their backs wielded thick spears and sat upon clean leather saddles. The enemy creatures slammed into the dragons, panic erupted as more landed in the city.
They seemed to be made of shadow, disappearing into smoke and dust as soon as their riders dismounted. The soldiers on the ground attacked the unwelcome intruders, hacking and killing all in their path. Roars ripped through the night. In all the chaos and panic, no one noticed the cloaked figure slinking in the allies towards the magician’s quarters.
The fighting continued, cries of men and beasts shredded the darkness. Screams filled the air. Blasts of blue flame shot from the windows of a think wall surrounding the city as magicians and sorcerers blasted at the shadow creatures and the dark men on the ground.
“We can’t hold them off for much longer!” cried a young magician to his master. “They’re everywhere and we don’t have enough magicians to keep them back, we need to do something.”
Just then a shrill note pierced the night sky and people fell to the ground holding their ears. The creatures and the enemy warriors began to retreat. The shadow creatures exploded seemingly from thin air and their riders jumped upon them. Their wings gusted air into the city and they all took off at once. The ones in the air lead the way off into the distance.
All was silent once more. The streets were littered with spilled goods and the still bodies of men who had died in battle. In the walls, magicians were lying on the floor, exhausted by their efforts to protect and secure the city. A loud clattering came ringing down the long hall and they all jumped to their feet, immediately alert for any sign of enemy attack. It was the head sorcerer.
He cried out to the assembled warlocks, “They’ve taken him! My apprentice! They have him!” He was practically in hysterics……….
**************************************************************
I have a bit more, but that is for l8r. I also have another one, like I said, it is called DragonChild. I will submit that one later.
May 11, 2007 at 1:24 am
I know! I hate those people! I love mustangs, its just some of the people who drive them. Most of them just look like they think that their king/queen of the world. I don’t think that your dad would be completely different, though. What’s your real name? You don’t have to answer, just wondering. My name is Nikki.
May 11, 2007 at 1:26 am
How was it?!?!
May 11, 2007 at 1:28 am
My name is Tori, my dad is real great. it is my UNCLE who thinks he is the king of all cardome!!!!
May 11, 2007 at 1:30 am
I have a friend that we call Nikki. But her real name is Nicole. (she lives in Tennessee) My cousin’s name is Also Nikole and she says that her friends call HER Nikki. (she lives in Washington)….Idk tho.
May 11, 2007 at 1:31 am
But newayz. YA my family is big with cars. we even have a web site.
May 11, 2007 at 1:34 am
I really wish that is would say when someone was writing on this web site…..!
May 11, 2007 at 1:37 am
ok, well i better go. I have to do homework….blah…
k well neone else who reads these, tell me how my story rates!
CUALL L8R!!!
May 11, 2007 at 1:38 am
I WILL GET ON L8R TONIGHT PEOPLE!!!!
C U ALL L8R!
May 11, 2007 at 1:39 am
That was great! Everyone seems to be better at writing than I am. I have no idea what to call your story. I go by my middle name, Nikole. My first name is Nawanda. I’ll put my first chapter on here.
****************************************************************
The bell rang for school to begin.
“Another day like any other”, said Rose to Sky. However, she was wrong; today their life was going to change forever…
It was lunch, the twins, Rose and Sky, sat down. They were talking about how much they wanted a snowstorm, middle of summer or not.
As they started to get up, Chelsea, the most popular girl in school, pushed them back into their seats.
“In case you don’t remember”, she said in her sneering sort of voice, “I go first all the time unless I say”, Rose was about to punch her, give her a bloody nose and a fat lip. No make-up could hide that.
However, the bell to get their stuff for fourth period rang.
“Don’t forget your essay must be at least five paragraphs long”, said Mrs. Brown, the language arts teacher.
Sky gave Rose a ‘Will this class ever end?’ kind of look.
Then suddenly there was something that nearly hit their heads, missing by a hair’s breadth. It hit the wall instead, as if the wall suddenly had a branch.
*************************************************************
My family isn’t really big with cars, and I just kinda like them. I don’t know anything about engines. I just pay attention to the body. I LOVE Buicks, though. But what do you think of my story?
May 11, 2007 at 2:48 am

May 11, 2007 at 3:55 am
DR~Are the dragons, like, evil? Or are they helping poor villagers that were banished from their town?
May 11, 2007 at 4:49 am
Your story was good! It was a really good start. In my story the dragons are like protectors of the city. they won’t play a HUGE part in this story, they are more of a background info thing. The SHADOW CREATURES though, are like the equivilent to dragons but made of shadow and evil spells. MORE ON THIS L8R And I like you, only pay attention to teh body of the car. the engine doesn’t matter to me unless it is really fast! I think this site should be like an IM site.
Love the books~ I have never had official lessons, but i know how to control the horse. (I can stay really calm even if the horse is freaking out. once a horse ran into a fence(it was a retarded horse i swear) and it totally fell over, but somehow i managed to get off without being crushed in about 2 seconds. then i was just checking out the horse to make sure he was ok) newayz. i know how to do the basics, rollbacks, barrels, poles, etc. and i LOVE to go fast!!!! I started jumping, and i was really good at it, but then i quit lessons. In the end, although i love horses, i am more of the musical type. i play 2 instruments.

May 12, 2007 at 9:41 pm
i think that this isn’t a regular book website anymore but a community of many different people from different parts of the world. maybe even a family. or a sub family( whatever that is). i guess it could be something in its own category. all i know is that we are together as friends.
May 12, 2007 at 10:17 pm
I totally agree with that! Even if I don’t actually know you guys, I sort of feel like I do. Does that make ne sense? 😉 newyz. You are all sweet. I will keep posting my story up on this site. Whenever I write more on it that is! I am currently finishing the Prologue and working on CH 1……!

dr~ im really sorry about your family member. i also play the guitar.ok heres my story. feel free to give any criticism. good or bad.i would really appreciate any feedback.ok here it is.
ps. its very short and i do have a story but this alone makes no sense but i just want to know if i should keep going.
“My goodness” yelled Kelsey looking out from her bed room window. “How much longer can it keep snowing like this?” It was already 6 o’clock and had snowed nonstop since the night before. Kelsey leaned over her bedside table hitting her alarm clock. And now for your local school delays” announced the weather forecaster. “It seems even with all the snow we won’t be seeing to many delays or cancellations for the local Spring Valley schools” “Great” Kelsey said under her breath. Ever since she could remember her father had worked for the local weather station. She had often told her mother “well if he can’t change the weather once in a while what’s the point in telling what it’s going to do?” Reluctantly Kelsey got out of the warmth of her bed and made her way to her burrow. Pulling out a white long sleeve shirt and brown sweat pants she mumbled to herself “just once I wish they would cancel school on blasted days like this” School was a dreaded thing for Kelsey, as for most teenage boys and girls, but it was especially hard for her. Ever since she began school she had been made fun of, for on her left shoulder was a triangular tattoo like mark. Her parents nor doctor could come to any other conclusion besides that it was a tattoo printed on her when she was a baby. For that tattoo was the cause of all her problems because of it she was called names and people wanted as little to do with her as possible. After throwing on her clothes and brushing her teeth and hair she made her way downstairs. Kelsey came over to the dining table and plopped down in one of the chairs.
May 13, 2007 at 12:22 am
ok so write back soon so i know if i should keep going.
May 13, 2007 at 12:25 am
i dont think its that good but ill wait untill i hear what all of you think
May 13, 2007 at 5:07 am
I think that it is really good. I’m just confused in why they don’t cancel school on a day like that. You need to continue! Well, it’s late, I should go. Talk to you later, girls!

May 13, 2007 at 2:06 pm
thanks that really helped!!!:-)
May 13, 2007 at 2:07 pm
i mighy make them half a delay or a cancel bc now that i think about it that doesnt really make any sense(lol)
May 13, 2007 at 2:08 pm
anyone else that has feedback feel free to tell me what u think of my little blurp of writing
May 13, 2007 at 2:31 pm
That was really interesting. Do you have a whole story plot, conflict etc yet? Do you already know what that tattoo thing is??? That is really good. Ok, excuse me if you think I am a total IDIOT, but what the frikin crap is a BURROW!?!?!?! I’m sorry if you live in a place where that is a common word. The only place I have ever heard it is in Harry Potter for where the Weasleys live……”The Burrow” WHAT IS A BURROW!!!!!
I live in the USA so, we don’t have a bunch of (don’t be offended) abnormal words…..! JKJKJKJKWell actually we kinda do. Well, not that I can think of, but I am SURE that if I looked in a dictionary I could find some frikin wierd American words that are just totally dumb. Newayz, sorry if that was a big deal about nothin.
BUT GOOD START TO YOUR STORY!!!!

Story
“My goodness!” yelled Kelsey looking out from her bed room window. “How much longer can it keep snowing like this?” It was already 6 am. and had snowed nonstop since the night before. Kelsey leaned over her bedside table hitting her alarm clock. And now for your local school delays” announced the weather forecaster. “It seems with all the snow accumulations we will be seeing a lot of cancellations and delays for the New Jersey Spring Valley area. Carington Elementary will be seeing delays, as well as Eliot High, Marlon Middle School….”
“Yeah but what about Burkhume Middle School?” Kelsey thought growing impatient
“Spring Valley High and Burkhume Middle School will be seeing cancellations …”
“Finally!” she said pulling her down comforter over her head and letting sleep take over. By the time Kelsey woke up it was 9:30 and her room was like the inside of a conventional oven. Rubbing the sleep from her eye’s she flung the sheets off her and made her way down stairs. Her mother Mary ann. was in the kitchen. Kelsey always admired her mother’s cheery personality. No matter what was wrong she was always looking on the bright side of things. It annoyed Kelsey sometimes because when she was feeling upset and just wanted to sit in her sorrow her mother would always act all positive about the situation and try to make it better, which didn’t help if you wanted to feel sorry for yourself.
“Good morning”
“Hi” Kelsey said plopping down into one of the dining room chairs.
“I bet you’re glad you don’t have school”
“Yeah it’s about time”
“There have been a lot of times when school has been canceled”
“Well not enough”
“Well breakfast is ready. I have to run of to the butcher and get some lamb for diner with the Ames, but I won’t be long
“Ughhhhh is Lacey coming?”
“As far as I know.” Why do you dislike her so much?”
“Because she’s evil”
“Well she is coming so I expect you to be polite” deciding it was pointless to argue with her mom Kelsey just bent her head and started eating the food on her plate. As soon as her mother left Kelsey went up to her room and closed the door. Lacey and Kelsey had been best friends for a long time but now Lacey was popular and Kelsey hated her. It had all started when she was little. When Kelsey was a little baby her real parents didn’t want her so they gave her up for adoption. There Mary ann. And her husband, don, adopted Kelsey. Kelsey was just like any other girl. She had brown straight hair, and blue eyes, you could even go as far as to say that she was beautiful but one thing kept her distinguished from others, a triangular tattoo on her left shoulder. As far as her parents or doctor knew it was printed on her when she was a baby, but for what reason no one knew. This tattoo was the root of al her problems. During a pool party in second grade lacey saw Kelsey’s tattoo and told every one about it. From there on every one called her names and considered her eerie and weird. And now since Lacey was popular it made the bulling even worse. The only one who didn’t tease her was Jordan, the new girl in school. Jordan was pretty and was accepted into the popular group in no time, but unlike all the other people when Jordan met Kelsey popularity didn’t matter and neither did the little tattoo.
May 15, 2007 at 12:31 am
please write back sooooooooooooon and tell me every thing you think about it and tell me every thing you would like to see, or if you have ques.
ok…………………. write back!!!!!!!!
May 15, 2007 at 12:55 am
i liked the new one more. it explains things better like her family history and were the name calling started. it also explains why nobody knows about the tattoo on her shoulder. it shows one of the conflicts, if not the conflict, of the story.
May 15, 2007 at 12:57 am
is there more to the tattoo? because it looks like their is
May 15, 2007 at 12:59 am

May 15, 2007 at 3:40 am
dr i have never even heard of that series.
May 15, 2007 at 3:45 am
does anyone know what books are good? the lemony snicket series, eragon, and the new peter pan ones i usually read i either finished or am waiting for the next one to come out. if you ask me i think that aurthors should have a time machine so that they can write books in a realy short amount of time.
May 15, 2007 at 3:46 am
that way we won’t have to wait 4 so long
May 15, 2007 at 3:46 am

LOOK, U KNOW HOW THE FIRST RIDER WAS ERAGON,2?
I GET THE IDEA NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW A LOT ABOUT THE RIDERS
SO HERE’S AN IDEA-
BROM IS A RIDER. WHEN ERAGON’S MOM COMES TO CARVAHALL WITH BABY ERAGON, THEY NAME THE BABY, AND AGREE TO LEAVE IT AT GARROW’S, PROTECTING HIM FROM GALBATORIX AND MORZAN
May 16, 2007 at 3:13 am

that makes sence thanks. I am not a good speller.
May 16, 2007 at 3:55 am
I AM SO SICK OF THE WIND!!!!!!!!!!!!It is totally driving me crazy….! The Alex Rider Series is good. The author is Anthony Horowitz. They are really good. NEWAYZ> I really think that Brom is Eragon’s father, so when eragon was going to be born, Selena decided to leave him with dear brother Garrow, this way morzan would not be able to get mad or harm Eragon. NOT TO MENTION THAT IF SAPHIRA HAD HATCHED FOR ERAGON AND HE HAD BEEN WITH MORZAN THEN HE WOULD BE SERVING GALBATORIX! and so selena and brom brought soon to be born eragon to carvahall where they agreed on a name and selena left brom to watch over eragon from a distance while he safely grew up. In ERAGON brom would act towards eragon in fatherly……..ways.
SO SORRY IF YOU DISAGREE WITH MY OPINIONS!!!!!!!!

Knight of the etc etc~ What idea of yours did i steal?! I AM so CONFUSED!!!!! :E ok.
QI~ Ok, a name for an egg…..how about……PinPin. That is what my sister named “her” puppy. Kinda wierd but all out puppies have odd names. at least the ones that are named. There is Apollo, PinPin, Squirt, Majesty, and Spot. Newayz.

May 19, 2007 at 1:55 pm
Ok This is chapter one of my story(the one without a name) (it is kinda long) and I am putting the prologue on here again cuz’ i wrote like 2 more paragraphs on it.
**************************************************************
Prologue: Attack
The moon shone brightly on the large city of Drega. A deep silence made the air clear and sharp. A dark shadow rose up and broke off from the horizon, continuing into the sky till it rose up in front of the moon, casting shadows darkly throughout the city. It dove down sharply; streamlining towards the city. A horn bugled somewhere in the distance and the streets came alive with light and sound. Men jumped into action, grabbing weapons and armor. The creature still came down, gaining speed as it went. More rose up behind it, all heading in a strait dive for the city.
A horrific roar erupted from out of the ground. A metal grate in the center of the city opened slowly and people fled from the town square. Flames burst out of the hole and two dozen dragons sprang out, flapping their wings and gaining altitude as they went. The men on their backs wielded thick spears and sat upon clean leather saddles. The enemy creatures slammed into the dragons, panic erupted as more landed in the city.
They seemed to be made of shadow, disappearing into smoke and dust as soon as their riders dismounted. The soldiers on the ground attacked the unwelcome intruders, hacking and killing all in their path. Roars ripped through the night. In all the chaos and panic, no one noticed the cloaked figure slinking in the allies towards the magician’s quarters.
The fighting continued, cries of men and beasts shredded the darkness. Screams filled the air. Blasts of blue flame shot from the windows of a think wall surrounding the city as magicians and sorcerers blasted at the shadow creatures and the dark men on the ground.
“We can’t hold them off for much longer!” cried a young magician to his master. “They’re everywhere and we don’t have enough magicians to keep them back, we need to do something.”
Just then a shrill note pierced the night sky and people fell to the ground holding their ears. The creatures and the enemy warriors began to retreat. The shadow creatures exploded seemingly from thin air and their riders jumped upon them. Their wings gusted air into the city and they all took off at once. The ones in the air lead the way off into the distance.
All was silent once more. The streets were littered with spilled goods and the still bodies of men who had died in battle. In the walls, magicians were lying on the floor, exhausted by their efforts to protect and secure the city. A loud clattering came ringing down the long hall and they all jumped to their feet, immediately alert for any sign of enemy attack. It was the Head Warlock.
He cried out to the assembled warlocks, “They’ve taken him! My apprentice! They have him!” He was practically in hysterics. The Head Warlock’s apprentice had been taken.
The boy, Zool, was very powerful. Drega was a city of magic. It was full of warlocks, magicians, sorcerers, witches, and wizards, but no one had ever seen a boy like Zool. As a child he had been able to do amazing things with only his instincts. Everyone was curious to know what he could do when he was fully trained. Many believed that he would be the salvation of their city. One who would defeat the dreaded Zachairians. Others had believed him to be too powerful. Some even thought he should be killed, for fear that he would one day use his strange magic and turn on the city. They said he would grow power hungry, and would let his ambitions take him too far, but no one had anticipated this.
Because of Zool’s power, he had been kept secret from the rest of the country, but apparently the city’s secret had leaked out. And, by some misfortune, it had reached the Zachairian King.
As light peaked out from behind the Erratia Mountains, fear shrouded the city in a blanket of despair. Darkness covered the city and for a time they all lived in terror , yet all things pass. Soon Zool was forgotten. The Head Warlock acquired a new apprentice and all went on as normal.
The battle was a lost and forgotten memory, lurking in the shadows and hiding from the daylight. No one brought it up and everyone was happy to leave it as it was. It just hurt too much to remember how their hopes had been dashed when he had been taken. Herein lay Drega’s mistake. They would later regret forgetting. They would wish that Zool had never been taken. But why remember when it is so easy to forget……
Chapter One: ??????
12 years later
Now, repeat the exercise.”
“I’ve done it nearly 23 times, it won’t get any better if I wear myself out.”
“I don’t care if you’ve done it 1000 times. You will do it again, and you will keep doing it till you get it right!”
Zool concentrated on the spell. He felt the magic running through him. It sent a shiver down his spine and gave him a feeling of power. He loved this feeling. It sent a thrill through him every time he did a spell. It felt like there was so much more that he wasn’t even acknowledging. He was getting sidetracked again. He concentrated even harder. He let all his frustration and anger fuel the magic.
“Zedrah fald’in rezca mroelsta!”, Zool yelled. His voice echoed around the room. He was aware of Kedfer watching him closely. A bright burst of deep red magic shot from his hands and flowed around the room. The red magic tinged the dark walls and made them look crimson. It made Zool think of blood.
The magic flowed around him and quickly began to gather in the center of the large circular room. It pulsated and grew larger. A head began to form. Legs and a torso soon followed. Zool watched in amazement as wings sprouted. Finally it stopped growing. The magic grew dark. The creature was black as a moonless night with eyes that burned with a red fire. Shadow flowed around the monster. It stood still, its slanted eyes staring at zool. A long tail lashed on the ground.
“Excellent! This beast is the most perfect specimen ever made by a youth since the days of Ragnoar. And it only took you 24 tries. For most young magicians it takes near 100 attempts to get it perfected. It will serve you and you alone, unless you tell it otherwise. It is the equivalent of a dragon, but more durable. It is called a Fal’zore. It will return to the Darkness when you instruct it to do so, and when you wish it to return to you, you simply utter the spell and it will appear.” Kedfer was clearly excited. Probably because it would reflect well on him, thought Zool.
The Fal’zore growled deeply when Kedfer approached it and he jumped back quickly. Then he walked over to Zool. He spoke swiftly with a very serious voice. “It will protect you against anything to the very extent of its powers for it knows no fear. You must learn how to control it on your own. It must be taught to stay with you anc be cautious. You must give it a name so that you can identify it as your own. In a battle, everyone will have a Fal’zore so you must be able to find yours. Do you understand?”
“I do, Master Kedfer.”, Zool said absently. Kedfer gazed at the creature and then put a hand on Zool’s shoulder.
“I’m proud of you Zool.”, he said softly. Zool heard his footsteps approach the door. It opened quietly, then it closed with a loud click. For almost a minute Zool did nothing. He just stood, staring at the thing he had brought out from the Darkness. Slowly, he walked over to the Fal’zore. It didn’t growl at him like it had to Kedfer. It just watched him with those burning eyes. Zool placed a hand on its shoulder. The muscles under the skin were defined and strong. The skin itself was thin and soft but it was also like a strong piece of leather. It was a very interesting texture. Zool admired the shape of his Fal’zore’s legs and neck. The nicely curved wings and talons. He even examined the teeth which were a shiny black metal like substance. It’s head was horse-like , but with more reptilian features. It’s two front teeth stood out long and dangerously sharp.
“Dragon’s can breath fire, can you do that?”, Zool said to the creature. He didn’t expect and answer so when the Fal’zore opened his mouth, Zool jumped back. A jet of flame exploded out of the Fal’zore’s mouth. It burned with the intensity of a volcano, but Zool felt no pain. Fire burned around the edges of the room momentarily before dying down. Zool rapidly checked himself for any burns or singed clothing, but as he had expected there were none.
“A name. A name, what’s a good name…..?”, Zool said in a hushed voice as he paced around the Fal’zore, looking him over and examining him carefully. “Zendor. That is your name.”, Zool said abruptly. He turned to the Fal’zore. “Zendor means ‘above all’ so it would fit you if you are as good as Kedfer says, and Kedfer has never lied to me before.”
Zool placed a hand on Zendor’s forehead and he made a throaty growl that was almost a purr. Zool assumed that it was a show of affection or enjoyment. All of a sudden Zendor’s head swung to the left towards the door. Not five seconds later the door opened admitting a short, bald man in a black robe into the room.
“King Zorm wishes an audience with you immediately.”, his voice was whiny and high-pitched.
“Yes, I’ll be there in a moment.” Zool spoke with an edge to his voice and his response was sharp.
“He wishes to see you immediately….”, he emphasized immediately and paused, waiting for a response. Zool stood for a moment, wondering wether to go, or to keep the King waiting. The King was impatient so he decided he had best go. Besides, maybe he would get honored for his fine work.
“Return to the Darkness until called to me for your service.”, Zool commanded Zendor. He respectfully inclined his head to Zool and burst in to a cloud of black magic. It settled in a cloud on the floor around Zool’s feet before vanishing completely. He turned to see the messenger tapping his foot and looking annoyed.
“Follow me.”, he said curtly. Zool followed the little man. He used a simple spell he learned years ago to glean some information about the robed man from his simple mind. His name was Reggin and he was a lower councilor in the king’s court. He was stuffy, rude, and thought he should be the king’s official First Councilor. He is a very boring person, Zool concluded.
As they passed the hall where Zool’s room was located a thought occurred to him and he paused. Reggin turned to see why he had stopped and began tapping his foot again.
“Might I get dressed in more suitable clothing?”, Zool gestured to his simple tunic, black pants, boots, and leather belt. Reggin was clearly hesitant to let him take time to dress more appropriately, but in the end etiquette won him over. Seeing him pause, Zool took his chance. “I’ll only be a few moments.”, he promised. The he ran down the hall to his room. Flinging the door open he ran inside and just as quickly slammed the door again. He rushed through his modest closet He pushed aside his organized tunics and other various articles of clothing.
His closet mostly consisted of black, but some browns, dark maroons and crimsons blended in with the rest of his dark clothes. Finally, in the very back of his closet he found a black tunic with gold lace and studded with rubies. It was a gift from the King in his first year training as a True Magician, one year ago. He had received it because of his ‘superior abilities’. It had a decorated cape that clipped onto his tunic with ruby clips and had designs made of gold thread sown onto the back. The fabric was a fine velvet. A gold and diamond belt wrapped carefully around his waist. A large ruby glittered at its center and he admired it. It was the only valuable object he owned.
He lay it carefully onto his large bed. The air felt cold on his skin as he stripped off his plain black tunic and boots. He pulled the fine tunic over his head and reached for his boots and pants. Then he put on a pair of black breeches made of the same black velvet. Silver ties adorned his only pair of good boots.
Zool looked at himself in the mirror. His straight chin-length, raven-black hair framed his face, his grey-blue eyes stood out. Most Zacharian’s eyes were black or a dark red. Some had brown eyes, but not many, and none that he knew of had blue eyes. They reminded him of ice and clouds on a snowy day. He pulled his hair up into a gold ringlet, and then, deciding it was foolish, he took it out again. Finally he put on the cape and walked out the door.
Reggin was tapping his foot again. He eyed Zool’s clothes with a greedy gleam in his beady eyes. He turned on his heel and stormed out the main entrance to the Sorcerer’s Chambers. Zool followed him more slowly. Reggin led the way through the large city. The buildings were made of black stone for the wealthy and wood or crimson brick for the less wealthy. Shops lined the paved streets, their shop doors closing and lights dimming. Dusk rapidly approached, some brave stars were peeking out of their dark home.
Above the city loomed the King’s castle. It was a wondrous structure with hundreds of twisting spires and columns. It’s many towers pierced the night sky. Candle light flickered in the thick glass windows, and stained glass windows glittered dangerously in the light of the dying sun. Gargoyles and Dragons protected the fortress from their stony perches around the castle. Zool had been here before, but it still froze his actions and made him stop to stare at the marvelous creation.
“Ahem?” Zool, brought out of his reverie, turned from the castle and once again turned to see a griping, resentful Reggin. He was tapping his foot again and Zool gave him a cold look. Reggin seemed to wither beneath his cold, powerful eyes and his face paled considerably.
Zool gestured to the castle, “By all means, lead the way.” Reggin regained his composure quickly and began to walk towards the castle briskly.
Zool’s thoughts were on a number of things. First was Zendor. He was excited to try riding him. Next was his training. He was learning at an alarming rate. And even more curious was the fact that it wasn’t to catch up to the other apprentices. He was ahead by four or five lessons. He was sure none of them had started working on Fal’zores yet. They were such blabber mouths, they would have told everyone who would listen within the day. And yet he still moved through seven or more spells a day. Kedfer was working him 9 hours a day and had started to work him on Saturday for four hours. Usually Saturday was rest day. All of this had greatly weakened Zool, leaving him tired and often dazed and unsteady.
The Ring of Sorcerers had discovered how hard he was being worked and had given Kedfer instruction to give Zool more breaks; let him rest more. Since then he had been doing much better in his studies, but still. Why had Kedfer been working him so hard in the first place? It all worried Zool so much. Last was why the King had summoned him to the castle. It didn’t worry him too much though. He had done nothing wrong and was the top apprentice of his age group.
All these thoughts distracted Zool and he was surprised by how quickly he was at the Castle. Reggin was approaching the steps that led up to the front door. Zool followed cautiously. Reggin spoke a word that Zool had never heard before and the huge front door opened slowly. Zool traversed the last ten steps and entered the finely carved mahogany door. He looked back and noticed that the door was covered in strange markings and symbols.
He puzzled over them until he smacked into Reggin who flew forward, his hand stretched out to catch his fall.
Panicked, Zool uttered a few quick words, “Feld’han recksla Reggin!” Reggin was picked up, as if by an invisible hand and placed carefully back where he stood a moment before. His face was stark white and his whole body was shaking. “What? Haven’t you ever seen magic before?”, Zool inquired smugly.
Reggin glared at Zool with his black eyes. The door to the King’s war chamber, the room the had been led to, opened quietly. Reggin walked in and greeted the king formally.
“My lord, King Zorm, the boy has been brought to you, as was instructed.”, Reggin spoke loudly, but his voice held a tremor that revealed his true feelings about being in the powerful king’s presence.
King Zorm’s voice was low and strong. It sent a shiver of fear scurrying down Zool’s spine. “Good, Zool, I have been meaning to talk to you. We have plans to make. Work to do. People to command.”
“I’m not sure I understand what you mean….”, Zool said warily. The King, though wise, was impatient.
King Zorm paused to move some pieces on what looked like a large chess board, but with landscape rather then squares. “We’re going to war!”

Oh,…..lovethebooks~ I havn’t taken ne. But I will take some…..SOON CUZ THEY ARE GETTING SO CUTE! And, it really depends on the dog. Mine are both really mellow and not hyper at all (especially the boy, Salem) but we gave one of our puppies to a friend and that one is like bouncing off the walls, but i think that is because they keep her in a kennel and she is like still a puppy. They are playful and hyper when they are little, but they usually grow out of it. Some might not, cuz’ it is just a personality triat, but ya. A little info on Alaskan Malamutes.

I mean at first it was like wahtever cuz’ i knew that it would be him, he was gonna be evil and all that.

lovethebooks- I know a sheep person who has a litter but I don’t know how many puppies there were or how many they sold. but I’ll find one some where around here there’s always some one wanting to sell something.
May 19, 2007 at 11:17 pm
dragonrider~ your story was rlly good.:-). my dog might also have puppies.we’ve already had a litter befor and they could fit in ur palm!! THEY WERE SO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh and i just finished leven thumps. it was really good so i recomend it to anyone who is looking for a book to read while waiting for the third book!! oh and i was in barnes and nobles and i saw the eldest special edition and i saw what the cover is going to be for the third book and what the title is going to be, so if u have a barnes and noble im sure u can find it our u can ask me. ok write bak soon cause im rlly bored
May 20, 2007 at 2:22 am
DANIEL-IM GONNA JUMP DOWN UR THROAT SOON, SO, IN ADVANCE, I AM SORRY, K?
RORAN WONT B THE NEW RIDER!!!
RORAN WONT B THE NEW RIDER!!!
RORAN WONT B THE NEW RIDER !!!
RORAN WONT B THE NEW RIDER!!!
THE REASON:
ERAGON STILL ISNT DONE WITH HIS TRAINING-THE ONLY REASON HE’S AS POWERFUL AS HE IS RIGHT NOW IS THE DRAGON’S GIFT!!!!!
IF RORAN WAS THE RIDER, BY THE TIME HE COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE, THE REBELLION WOULD ALREADY BE DECIDED.
THE NEW RIDER WILL BE AN ELF-A GIRL.
THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE THE DRAGON SPECIES IS FOR SAPHIRA & A MALE TO MATE.
IF THE NEW RIDER IS A GIRL, AND HER DRAGON IS A BOY, AND THE NEW DRAGON & SAPHIRA MATE, ERAGON & THE NEW RIDERWILL FALL IN LOVE.
THE RIDER MUST BE AN ELF-THAT WAY IT WOULDN’T TAKE SO LONG TO TRAIN HER,SHE COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE REBELLION
OF ALL THE ELVES WE’VE BEEN INTRODUCED TO, I THINK CP WILL MAKE ARYA THE NEW RIDER.
THE NEW RIDER ISNT RORAN-IT IS ARYA.

Hey Jadira, not to complain, but can u plz stop writing like ThIs, cuz’ i have a hard time reading your stuff. Sry I have been off for a while, i went on a 2 day vaca. but newyz. I like Vrael.
Ok, I have a question, so don’t answer unless you are willing to swear on your grave that what you have to say is fact. If a rider dies, does his/her dragon? I mean like for sure, it doesn’t really make sense that if the Dragon dies then the rider lives, but not Vice versa. And something oromis said made me think bout it a little more. newayz. maybe the human physche can handle more then the dragon physche, bcuz the reason that some riders die when there dragn does is bcuz of the mental link, it is like have of their conciousness just died. But newayz. just curious.
~Glaedr
May 28, 2007 at 2:45 am
ya i dont know for a fact but i think that when either dragon or rider dies… because there linked to each other they both die from heart ache. but i could be wrong
~vrael

yo, i thind osimis (the teacher) said if a dragon or a rider dies, the other partner will live on, because i kinda remember him telling E & S not to try to take the other person into their body, & i backtracked from there. i could b rong, tho
Jadira-welcome 2 the site.normally i’m not so mean, but i get kinda freaked on the internet sometimes-sure, u don’t SOUND like a phycostalker, but…..

May 29, 2007 at 9:14 pm
do any of you NOT like eragon????
May 29, 2007 at 9:26 pm
heyy umm I’m new to this site thing, but I’ve been reading all the previous comments and stuff. You have have some really great theories. I’m 15 and from Ohio. ahha. It’s not fun. I’m also a girl, btw. umm as far as the whole thing about whether the rider or dragon will die if the other one does, I’m not sure. I know that in teh movie it said that the dragon will die if the rider does, but the movie was so different from the book. I know that in the book if the dragon dies then the rider doesn’t have to, but I do believe that it said they sometimes do. I’m not positive so don’t hold me to that. ahha =)
May 29, 2007 at 9:28 pm
God, no! I loved both of the books. I would have liked that movie if it wasn’t based on the book. Like if the movie was just a movie and nowt based on the book it woulda been great, but since it really was based on the book, I think it bombed. haha. Does that make any since?
May 29, 2007 at 9:37 pm
l3ubl3Le~welcom to the site. I was just readin that a lot of ppl disliked the book and i was so shocked so i just thought i would ask.
May 29, 2007 at 9:50 pm
thankss. =) no I thought the book was wayyy better than the movie. The movie was good, it just didn’t do the book justice.
May 29, 2007 at 9:59 pm
i didnt see the movie but from what all the ppl have said about it i dont think i will take the time and see it. but if the 2nd one comes out then i might , to see if it is better and if it gets better marks then the one befor
~vrael
May 29, 2007 at 10:03 pm
It’s not that it’s a bad movie, it’s just that it’s so different than the book. I think you should take teh time to see it because it’s rather good, just try not to remember that it’s supposed to be about the book. lol. It’ll be a lot better that way. haha. Yeah I hope they do make a movie of teh second one, I just don’t want them to make it more like the book than the first one was because they that will make me hate the first one. ahha. I know. I probably don’t make any sense. haha
May 29, 2007 at 10:12 pm
i think if i were to watch the movie the book would always be poping up in my head and i would be comparing it but i might watch it. im so sad to hear that ppl dont like the book. but i havent read star wars or any of the other books so i wouldnt know if he were copying any of them but never the less i like the book a lot
~vrael
May 29, 2007 at 10:28 pm
I’ve never read or watched Star Wars, but I’ve heard that people say CP based his books on Lord of the Rings? I had to watch all of the movies in 7th grade from a class and from what I can remember of them, I don’t think they’re like teh Inheritance Trilogy at all. I could be wrong though. Yeahh I watched the movie before I read the book because I didn’t know there was a book. haha. In a way, I’m glad I did because I know I’d be the same way I am with the Harry Potter movies and books. I’ll read the books first then go and watch the movies and I’ll not even enjoy the movie because I’ll set there and point out everythings that’s different or something like that. ahah
May 29, 2007 at 10:35 pm
i havent read the harry potter series. i just cant make my self go read them. mostly bc iv watched the movies and it seems pretty pointless to me to read something that iv already watched but the book could be totaly differnt then the book.
~vrael
May 29, 2007 at 10:41 pm
mm well I didn’t like the first 4 books hardly at all. The 5th & 6th books are definitely my favorites. The 6th one made me so mad because it left me hanging. I can’t wait to read the 7th one! Oh and yes, the books are way different. So much more happened in the 4th book than what they put in the movie that it was pathetic. I don’t see how they’re going to do the 5th movie with all of the stuff they cut out of teh 4th book that leads up to the 5th one. I almost dnt want to go see it.
May 29, 2007 at 10:58 pm
so u think i should read them?
~vrael
May 29, 2007 at 11:05 pm
Yepp! If you don’t like that first 3 then that’s alright I guess, just make sure you read the 4th, 5th, and 6th ones. They’re the best and the most important. If you don’t read the first 3 then some stuff might not make since, but you should be alright if you don’t and just watch the movies. I know there’s a 4th movie, but it’s a lot different than the book. It leaves out a lot of stuff you need to know fo rthe 5th and 6th books..
May 29, 2007 at 11:22 pm
ok thanks. this is kinda off the subject but do u have any pets????(kinda random:-))
~vrael
May 29, 2007 at 11:43 pm
haha it’s okay. Yes I do. =) I have 3 dogs and 1 cat. My dogs are Khara who is a pitbull (she’s very nice, though), a cockerspaniel named Ruby, and a complete mut named Cole. ahah. Cole would be my dog. lol. What about you?
May 29, 2007 at 11:48 pm
well i really love dogs but recentaly i found out im allergic to them:-(( so i have a hypoalergenic dog,but i love big dogs like golden retrievers and mastiffs, and st.bernards but its kinda hard to have one when u cant breath(lol)
~vrael
May 29, 2007 at 11:55 pm
haha yes I imagine it would be. What is a hypoalergenic dog?
May 30, 2007 at 1:45 pm
its a dog that has hair instead of fur. like have you heard of lhasa apso’s or shit’zu’s. they feel like they have fur but i can breath when i see them(lol)
May 30, 2007 at 11:45 pm
I am SO TIRED OF SCHOOL! and i put in a comment but ONCE AGAIN, it didn’t put it on! IT SUCKS!
Thanx for the input on my ?….I don’t think that dragons have to die because then this wouldn’t make sense: So, Shruikan didn’t actually hatch for Galb., he stole him AFTER HE HAD HATCHED and (here’s the catch) Galb. killed his rider. so this leads me to believe that MOST of the time, the dragon does die, like the human, from grief, and the shock of having part of them DIE. but neither HAS to die. Does that make sense?!?!
~Glaedr
May 31, 2007 at 3:15 am
My favorite part of living on a farm is the baby animals, one of my outside cats had 4 kittens, 2 orange and 2 calico. Also my indside cat Lovie had A kitten last nite it is very cute 8) I havent been on in a wile because yesterday I graduated from my small Catholic School and every one made a big deal out of it because I was the only 6th grader.
on the hole Galb. and Shruiken thing I think Shruiken was a wild dragon and Galb. put the spell they said to make it hatch wen it liked someone on Shruiken after he hatched. well that is my oppion and if the rider dies of old age then the dragon would still live at least that’s what I think.
May 31, 2007 at 11:57 am
~glaedr ya that makes sense.im so maddddd. theres a lot of people who are saying that cp cant write and that kids should not beable to read his books bc its not a good book and ya so im mad at people that are saying that.:-((((newayz
~Queen Islansadi,when i had my 6th grade graduation i asked my mom to do my hair and for the rest of the day i looked like a poodle soooooooo ya
ok g2g ill be bak today
~vrael
May 31, 2007 at 10:01 pm
lovethebooks, I would never ever ever let my mom touch my hair that may be a catosrophic disaster!!!!!!!!! 🙂
May 31, 2007 at 10:20 pm
lol i didnt want her too i wanted a hair dresser but she’s like NOOO ULL LOOK BEUTIFUL!! lol it was funny
~vrael
May 31, 2007 at 10:21 pm
Dragon Rider–yeahh that makes sense. Shruikan was a hatchling whenever Galb stole him from his rider. His rider died, but Galb put a bunch of dark spells on Shruikan to make him obey him. I hadn’t thought of that at first, but I see your point now. =)
Lovethebooks–mm yeah I know them kind of dogs. I do believe I would love to be allergic to dogs then. I mean I like them and everything, but mine drive me nuts! haha.
Wow. You guys had a sixth grade graduation? I live in a town taht’s about a speck, if that, on the map. We only graduate from high school around here.
May 31, 2007 at 10:23 pm
haha the last time I let my mom touch my hair, I cried. My bangs ended up being about a foot off my head. I think I was in like 6th grade then. From that point on, I had my oldest sister do my hair. haha
May 31, 2007 at 10:36 pm
l3ubl3Le~lol thats really funny about ur hair…….i mean not for u but……nvm.my graduation was pritty good exept for that small problem(lol)
~vrael
ps were haveing a thunderstorm here(random)heheh.im really hyper right now so dont mind me:-)))))))))
May 31, 2007 at 10:41 pm
haha it’s okay. I have my hyper moments, too. =) Yeahhh, no, it wasn’t that great for me. My sisters had a wonderful time laughing at me, though. haha. It’s funny when I look back on it now, but it wasn’t so great when it was for my band concert and everyone from school saw me. It was horrible. lol
May 31, 2007 at 11:58 pm
are u still in a band. what did u play???
~vrael;-))))
June 1, 2007 at 12:03 am
I played that clairnet. Nah, I’m not still in band. I do believe that was my second ans last year I played. haha. I was 2nd chair, but it gave me headaches if I played too much. Are you in band?
June 1, 2007 at 1:00 am
i use to play violin but know i play guitar
~vrael
ps.l3ubl3Le u need a sn. like im vrael and dragon rider is glaedr what do u want to be? u pick the names from the eragon book.
June 1, 2007 at 2:33 am
Really? I’ve attempted to play the guitar. Lets just say that I shouldn’t be aloud to touch one. lol. My sister is much better than I am.
mm yes, I’ve noticed that. I don’t know what I want to be called. mm what one are left?
June 1, 2007 at 2:57 am
You could be……..Eragon, not way unique,but it isn’t taken, and others are…….Ajhihad (however you spell that) ummm, oromis, Vanir (i hate him in the book), Nadi, Lifaen, Glenwing, Faolin, (these are all elves.) Iduna, Neya, Orik, Saphira, Durza, Galbatorix, all of these are untaken, to my knowledge at least.
I play violin and piano. I am starting to play guitar, and i want to play either Flute or Piccolo. I am a very musical person.
QI~ Shruikan isn’t a wild dragon, he belonged to a rider before Gal. Yes, he is twisted with black magic to obey galb. and etc, but he DID belong to a dif. rider before gal. which gal. with the help of Morzan KILLED!!!
All for now.
~Glaedr
June 1, 2007 at 2:54 pm
mm I do believe I choose Neya. I’ve read the books about a zillion times, but I don’t know who that is. I just like the name. haha. =) Wow. Yes, you are a very musical person. I play volleyball and read and thats about it. haha.
June 1, 2007 at 8:12 pm
I LOVE READING. k i am done. NEYA is one of the elves who performs in the LAST performance before the end of the Agaeti blodhren. SHe and her twin, iduna, are the ones with the tattoo of the dragon on them that cures eragon. u know who im talkin about?
i am not too into sports, cept i love to swim, run and bike. those are my favs. i also lvoe raquet ball, tennis, and badminton. i used to play soccer but i got bored of that.
~Glaedr
June 1, 2007 at 8:34 pm
haha okay. I’ll take that name. =) haha. Yeahh I know what you’re talkin about.
mm I like have the whole “school spirit” and I go to the school sports games and stuff, but I only play volleyball. haha. Wow. You have a lot more different sports than we do around here. ahah

It has been a while since I have been on so alot of reading. So there is no confussion I am 28yrs old from South Carolina. I have been married for 6yrs and I also have a daughter on the way due in september. I didn’t want people to think that I am a petifile. I am simply trying to figure out the new book. I am on my third trip to Iraq. I am an infantryman and basically that is the military S.W.A.T. We get to kick in doors and do really cool stuff once we enter a house. I also want to thank you for all of the suppot that teens in the states give the soldier’s here. Makes me think that you do care about what goes on here.

writing from a phone so i can’t make faces . btw anyone who says cp can’t write is an illiterate fool, and an idiot. a crazy butt faced phycodic moron. try to say that three times fast. lol
June 3, 2007 at 4:01 pm
happy (soon to be) father’s day
pale rider. I have a 2 month old sister.she dosent stop crying. here are some tips 2 make ur life easy after the baby comes.
1. keep baby bottles ready in the fridge so all u have 2 do is microwave it.
2. buy extra pasifires (wrong spelling) cuz u can loose some.
3. meats r good 4 the baby’s brain during pregnancy
4. don’t buy a talking elmo, regular elmo toy is fine, they creep the babies out. wait until she is older.
June 3, 2007 at 4:06 pm
oh and buy dry fruits from gerber. I tried some and they were good.
I AM NOT CRAZY I WAS CURIOUS 2 KNOW WHAT IT TASTED LIKE.
June 3, 2007 at 5:32 pm
thanks for the tips i am pretty nervous. our first child. GOD has blessed us so i guess everything will be fine.
June 3, 2007 at 9:44 pm
palerider~i wish you lots of luck with the baby:-)))
June 3, 2007 at 11:19 pm
Hey, good luck. I think that Eragon will find love evuntually, with Arya or another elf. Then he will leave and go to Alalea with her, Saphira, Oromis (assuming he doesn’t die, idon’t think he will tho) the Green dragon and Glaedr. (is that everyone?)
MAN YOU GUYS ARE FRIKIN HYPER!!!!! I am bored right now. Do you guys have email? This is sort of like emial, but not really at the same time. newayz. K G2G. Check in l8r.

dr~i might of missed this in the book but what is Alalea?????
~vrael
June 4, 2007 at 11:01 pm
ur conversation is really interesting
did u notice that none of the first ppl to post comments have stayed?
CP is a really good author. i couldn’t put down his books when i read eldest and reread eragon in the past 3 days
Shurtugal.com answers many questions, but i still don’t know why eragon has to leave alagaesia at the end of the trilogy. im also hoping CP can tell us more about the lands in the eastern part of alagaesia and the islands where the elves and humans came from. the setting of the story seems like the small western part of a big island while the rest of the world is mysterious
June 5, 2007 at 1:32 am
ya heres a thought what if cp writes a series after eragon,eldest in which eragon goes to the different land and has a whole new experience there.i think that would be kewl……..or mabey im just crazy…..newayz.this is really off the topic but i just saw pirets of the carrabian.it was pretty good…..ok im gonnna leave unless someone is on
~vrael
June 5, 2007 at 2:55 am
i guess that would be possible, i read that Philip Pullman is working on a sequal to his Dark Materials trilogy. if cp does the same thing, i hope he won’t take so long. Pullman published the last book in his trilogy in 2000….maybe cp could even do a Star Wars thing and go back in time to write about the first eragon
June 5, 2007 at 5:11 am
~Vrael, Alalea is the land where the elves originated. It is the place they came from, where they lived before coming to Alagaesia. No living beings, besides the elves, know where it is. It is over seas though. So ya, that is what Alalea is, Brom tells Eragon about it near the Beginning of ERAGON. newyz.
k c ya’ll l8r.
~Glaedr
June 5, 2007 at 2:07 pm
dr~ya i think thats possible…i dont know if u said this befor but mabey thats where he goes after the 3rd book
~vrael
June 6, 2007 at 12:18 pm
The third chapter from the the third book. Excerpt. k
Saphira kneaded the soil beneath her feet. Let us be off! Leaving their bags and supplies hanging from the branch of a juniper tree, Eragon and Roran clambered onto Saphira’s back. They wasted no time saddling her; she had worn her tack through the night. The molded leather was warm, almost hot, underneath Eragon. He clutched the neck spike in front of him—to steady himself during sudden changes in direction—while Roran hooked one thick arm around Eragon’s waist and brandished his hammer with the other.
A piece of shale cracked under Saphira’s weight as she settled into a low crouch and then, in a single giddy bound, leaped up to the rim of the gulch, where she balanced for a moment before unfolding her massive wings. The thin membranes thrummed as Saphira raised them toward the sky. Vertical, they looked like two translucent blue sails.
“Not so tight,” grunted Eragon.
“Sorry,” said Roran. He loosened his embrace.
Further speech became impossible as Saphira jumped again.
When she reached the pinnacle of her jump, she brought her wings down with a mighty whoosh, driving the three of them even higher. With each subsequent flap, they climbed closer to the flat, narrow clouds that extended east to west.
As Saphira angled toward Helgrind, Eragon glanced to his left and discovered that, because of their elevation, he could see a broad swath of Leona Lake some miles distant. A thick layer of mist, gray and ghostly in the pre-dawn glow, emanated from the water, as if witchfire burned upon the surface of the liquid. Eragon tried, but even with his hawklike vision, he could not make out the far shore, nor the southern reaches of the Spine beyond, which he regretted. He had not laid eyes upon the mountain range of his childhood since leaving Palancar Valley.
To the north stood Dras-Leona, a huge, rambling mass that appeared as a blocky silhouette against the wall of mist that edged its western flank. The one building Eragon could identify was the cathedral where the Ra’zac had attacked him; its flanged spire
loomed above the rest of the city, like a barbed spearhead. And somewhere in the landscape that rushed past below, Eragon knew, were the remnants of the campsite where the Ra’zac had mortally wounded Brom. He allowed all of his anger and grief over the events of that day—as well as Garrow’s murder and the destruction of their farm—to surge forth and give him the courage, nay, the desire, to face the Ra’zac in combat.
Eragon, said Saphira. Today we need not guard our minds and keep our thoughts secret from one another, do we?
Not unless another magician should appear.
A fan of golden light flared into existence as the top of the sun crested the horizon. In an instant, the full spectrum of colors enlivened the previously drab world: the mist glowed white, the water became a rich blue, the daubed-mud wall that encircled the center of Dras-Leona revealed its dingy yellow sides, the trees cloaked themselves in every shade of green, and the soil blushed red and orange. Helgrind, however, remained as it always was—black.
The mountain of stone rapidly grew larger as they approached. Even from the air, it was intimidating.
Diving toward the base of Helgrind, Saphira tilted so far to her left, Eragon and Roran would have fallen if they had not already strapped their legs to the saddle. Then she whipped around the apron of scree and over the altar where the priests of Helgrind observed their ceremonies. The lip of Eragon’s helm caught the wind from her passage and produced a howl that almost deafened him.
“Well?” shouted Roran. He could not see in front of them. “The slaves are gone!”
A great weight seemed to press Eragon into his seat as Saphira pulled out of her dive and spiraled up around Helgrind, searching for an entrance to the Ra’zac’s hideout.
Not even a hole big enough for a woodrat, she declared. She slowed and hung in place before a ridge that connected the third lowest of the four peaks to the prominence above. The jagged buttress magnified the boom produced by each stroke of her wings until it was as loud as a thunderclap. Eragon’s eyes watered as the air pulsed against his skin.
A web of white veins adorned the backside of the crags and pillars, where hoarfrost had collected in the cracks that furrowed the rock. Nothing else disturbed the gloom of Helgrind’s inky, windswept ramparts. No trees grew there among the slanting stones, nor shrubs, nor grass, nor moss, nor lichen, nor did eagles dare nest upon the tower’s broken ledges. True to its name, Helgrind was a place of death, and stood cloaked in the razor-sharp, sawtoothed folds of its scarps and clefts like a bony specter risen to haunt the earth.
Casting his mind outward, Eragon confirmed the presence of one of the slaves, as well as the two people whom he had discovered imprisoned within Helgrind the previous day, but to his concern, he could not locate the Ra’zac or the Lethrblaka. If they aren’t here, then where? he wondered. Searching again, he noticed something that had eluded him before: a single flower, a gentian, blooming not fifty feet in front of them where, by all rights, there ought to be solid rock. How does it get enough light to live?
Saphira answered his question by perching on a crumbling spur several feet to the right. As she did, she lost her balance for a moment and flared her wings to steady herself. Instead of brushing against the bulk of Helgrind, the tip of her right wing dipped into the rock and then back out again.
Saphira, did you see that!
I did.
Leaning forward, Saphira pushed the tip of her snout toward the sheer rock, paused an inch or two away—as if waiting for a trap to spring—then continued her advance. Scale by scale, Saphira’s head slid into Helgrind, until all that was visible of her to Eragon was a neck, torso, and wings.
It’s an illusion! exclaimed Saphira.
With a surge of her mighty thews, she abandoned the spur and flung the rest of her body after her head. It required every bit of Eragon’s self-control not to cover his face in a desperate bid to protect himself as the crag rushed toward him.
An instant later, he found himself looking at a broad, vaulted cave suffused with the warm glow of morning. Saphira’s scales refracted the light, casting thousands of shifting blue flecks across the rock. Twisting around, Eragon saw no wall behind them, only the mouth of the cave and a sweeping view of the landscape beyond.
Eragon grimaced. It had never occurred to him that Galbatorix might have hidden the Ra’zac’s lair with magic. Idiot! I have to do better, he thought. Underestimating the king was a sure way to get them all killed.
Roran swore and said, “Warn me before you do something like that again.”
Hunching forward, Eragon unbuckled his legs from the saddle as he studied their surroundings, alert for any danger.
The opening to the cave was an irregular oval, perhaps fifty feet high and sixty feet wide. From there, the chamber expanded to twice that size before ending a good bowshot away in a pile of thick stone slabs that leaned against each other in a confusion of uncertain angles. A mat of powder-gray scratches defaced the floor, evidence of the many times the Lethrblaka had taken off, landed, and walked about thereon. Like mysterious keyholes, five low tunnels pierced the sides of the cave, as did a lancet passageway large enough to accommodate Saphira. Eragon examined the tunnels carefully, but they were pitch-black and appeared vacant, a fact he confirmed with quick thrusts of his mind. Strange, disjointed murmurs echoed from within Helgrind’s innards, suggesting unknown things scurrying about in the dark, and endlessly dripping water. Adding to the chorus of whispers was the steady rise and fall of Saphira’s breathing, which was overloud in the confines of the bare chamber.
The most distinctive feature of the cavern, however, was the mixture of odors that pervaded it. The smell of cold stone dominated, but underneath it, Eragon discerned whiffs of damp and mold and something far worse: the sickly-sweet fetor of rotting meat.
Undoing the last few straps, Eragon swung his right leg over Saphira’s spine, so he was sitting sidesaddle, and prepared to jump off her back. Roran did the same on the opposite side.
Before he released his hold, Eragon heard, amid the many rustlings that teased his ear, a score of simultaneous clicks, as if someone had struck the rock with a collection of hammers. The sound repeated itself a half-second later.
He looked in the direction of the noise, as did Saphira.
A huge, twisted shape hurtled out of the lancet passageway. Eyes black, bulging, rimless. A beak seven feet long. Batlike wings. The torso naked, hairless, rippling with muscle. Claws like iron spikes.
Saphira lurched as she tried to evade the Lethrblaka, but to no avail. The creature crashed into her right side with what felt to Eragon like the strength and fury of an avalanche.
What exactly happened next, he knew not, for the impact sent him tumbling through space without so much as a half-formed thought in his jumbled brain. His blind flight ended as abruptly as it began when something hard and flat rammed against the back of him, and he dropped to the floor, banging his head a second time.
That last collision drove the remaining air clean out of Eragon’s lungs. Stunned, he lay curled on his side, gasping and struggling to regain a semblance of control over his unresponsive limbs.
Eragon! cried Saphira.

wow, you put those on like right before i put mine on. k, i am sooo bored. AAH. oh ya, i forgot, oh crap, it is gone again. SHOOT! grrr. just out of curiousity, does neone here believe in an afterlife? I am very random today. OK, so i just got back from camping and while we were up in the canyons it SNOWED ON US! AAAH. IT WAS AWFUL!!!!!! i was like SO cold. but we came home a day early. Newayz. srry i wrote my name wrong. it is supposed to say GLAEDR not DRAGONRIDER although they are both my names. AHA i will do this’
~Glaeder
aka DragonRider
HA. OK, i just want to say, I LOVE MY NAME. i am so glad i came up with it. even tho it wasn’t hard to come up with. I am surprised that no one had it before i was on here. acutally i was like in the first 20 or so people on here. AND i was the first to actually write something that wasn’t a question. hmmm, sorry, just reminiscing. I am so tired. k, ill check in l8r. g2g.
June 8, 2007 at 12:43 am
~glaedr,do u believe in an after life?
June 8, 2007 at 2:27 am
yes, i do. I think that I would be depressed if i had nothing to look forward to after this life. Do you???
~Glaedr
aka DragonRider
June 8, 2007 at 4:16 am
Just out of curiousity, what brought that up???
June 8, 2007 at 7:38 am
DR~i think that u brought up the afterlife thing in ur june7 comment
i see that u r on the other site too. i use a different name on the other site, but i agree that people write a lot on there because once i came back after 5 hours and there were another 6 comments, which took me 10 minutes to read…yea, i believe in heaven, i think reincarnation is really stupid, but vollar doesn’t believe in anything, i think wiccans use magic or something.
btw, i agree that “dragonrider” is a cool name. in fact, when i first came here, u were answering questions and they were really smart answers, so i thought u were the person who ran the website
June 8, 2007 at 2:55 pm
Ooh, thanx. That makes me feel nice. I did bring it up in the other website because i was curious about Vollar’s wiccan thing. I think that wiccans make potions and stuff using herbs and spices. IDK tho. I know what you mean about the comments. It is really hard to keep up sometimes. but ya. with this site, there were only like 20 comments on here and no one was getting their ?’s answered so i decided to answer to the best of my abilities…! I am pretty good at reading between the lines. It comes from readig like 20 hours a day. IT IS MY PASSION IN LIFE!!!!!!! ok i am done. 🙂
k talk to you l8r…!

Hey Guys! I am new over here and I am also one of the biggest fans of Inheritance Trilogy, Like all of you. Hey, But I have a question that Eragon should take which weapon, The sword under the menoa tree or Brom’s sword from the elven families. I couldn’t find its answers on shurtugal.com so I posted my question here. Please reply soon. If any one of you has an answer.
June 9, 2007 at 7:58 pm
Planet Algaesia~i think that shurtugal.com says that the sword from the elven family is the sword of the menoa tree because Solembum’s prophecy is to look under the “roots” of the menoa tree, which might not mean the actual tree, but instead, the elven family may be the “root” of the menoa tree. so i think that the answer is both: the elven family is the “root” of the menoa tree because they r the ones who planted the tree or something, so Eragon should get Brom’s sword from them
June 9, 2007 at 8:00 pm
actually, i just thought of something;
i think that the woman elf who is stuck inside the menoa tree has an elven family that holds brom’s sword, so they are the roots of the menoa tree since their daughter IS the menoa tree. that means that Eragon can get brom’s sword from them
June 9, 2007 at 9:47 pm
ya that makes sense
~vrael
June 10, 2007 at 12:34 am
That really does make sense. good thinking. I LOVED PIRATES 3!! ok i am like a HUGE pirates fan, almost as big a fan of that as eragon….! I couldn’t believe the end tho. I won’t say nething for neone who wants to see it and hasn’t. AAAh. ok i am done. g2g, my little bro is having a bday party for his 8th bday and i have to participate!!!
c u all l8r!

June 11, 2007 at 8:15 am
dr~i have a brother who is 8 yrs old too!
he used to be a lot cuter when he was a baby but now hes a little annoying sometimes
i have to babysit him, but i’m like 2 yrs older than u so u might not have to
u said that u read 20 hrs a day! even if u read 10 hrs, how do u do schoolwork? do ppl not have a lot of homework in utah?
lovethebooks~what grade are u in?
do u have a lot of summer reading to do?
i have to read The Once and Future King and the Canterbury Tales, which is SOO hard to understand
June 11, 2007 at 6:08 pm
you wouldn’t belive how hard it is to find a border collie litter that isn’t sold or to far away I have searched every site from here to timbucto (how ever you spell that) I need a good book to read does any one have any sugestions.? 🙂 8)
June 11, 2007 at 6:16 pm
blagden~im in 7th grade going on to 8th but im homeskooled.
Queen Islanzadi~i really like the septimus heap series like flyte,and mygik, and physik.i thought those were really good. and also i like leven thumps and ,just ella.i have read like 25 books in the last couple months so i know a few good books but u might not like them.i just personaly thought they were good. oh and Eragon is also a really good book 😛
ya ok.my doggie is going to be a daddy in aug. im happy!!!:-)))))
~vrael
June 12, 2007 at 12:13 am
Blagden~ Ya, i have to babysit like every friday night, my 11 yr old bro, 8 yr old bro, and 4 yr old sis. Reading 20 hours a day is an exageration. I usually read like 1 hour on a bad day, and up to 4-5 on a good day, i used to read a TON more, but now i have a lot of jobs,(which i havn’t finished yet). Right now school is out, but I don’t get too much homework neways and reading comes before homework even when I do have it. Some teachers here are like brutal and give TONS of homwork, but mine were and have been really nice so I have minimal amounts of homework!!!
Lovethebooks~ No, i did not have a graduation. I am going into ninth grade, but even they don’t really have a “graduation” They just go to Lagoon (out theme park in utah) on the like 3rd to last day of school (the 28th of may). That is like….their reward. But no, we don’t have a grad.
QI~ Have you read the Bella Swan series (Twilight Series)??? THEY are like…AMAZING for lack of a better word! I love them. If you want to know about them you can go to the authors site. http://www.stepheniemeyer.com ! K. The FIRE WITHIN series is good too. They are by Chris D’Lacey, 1) The Fire Within 2) IceFire 3) firestar 4)(possibly) Fire Eternal
those are just a FEW of the tons and tons of amazing books i have read, but i don’t have time to put them all on here! K talk to u all l8r!

i read on the other site (https://littledailyprophet.wordpress.com/2006/10/17/rumors-about-the-third-and-final-book-of-the-inheritance-trilogy-debunked/)
that berowl deleted comments that weren’t related to the Inheritance Trilogy. if he kept doing the same thing he would have deleted half of all the comments
do any of u watch basketball?
cuz i don’t watch a lot of tv, but my brother likes the NBA so i sometimes watch it too, and i was sooo sad when the cavs lost today, i hate the spurs: they’re boring and they win too much
im wondering what happened to everyone who used to be on here. i think that they’re on vacation and they don’t talk on forums a lot in the summer, or they got all the answers they wanted on the Inheritance Trilogy so they don’t have any more questions
how academic are u all? im just curious because this is like the first forum i have been on and its only because eragon and eldest were really good; otherwise, im doing schoolwork. i like math, english, and science
the religion debate on the other site is kinda interesting. i bet u cant guess who i am.
~saphira (i want to be saphira cuz shes my favorite character; one of my favorite parts is when she hatches: she sounds really adorable)
June 14, 2007 at 12:09 am
Hmmm, i have NO clue who you are on that other site. I agree that like no one is on this site lately. I watch football. I am a BYU fan. UTES STINK! I love to debate, but not on topics like religion. I enjoy debating about science, and pretty much everything else. I am VERY academic. I love school…usually. I enjoy History, English, and Science. Math is OK. I am good at it, i just don’t enjoy learning it. Are you still in school? Saphira is a good name. I think that she sounds so cute too. She sounds really, understandnig. someone you could talk to (even if you didn’t know taht she was listening) I was between Durza, Vrael, and of course Glaedr when i was deciding. I liked Glaedr best! newyz. g2g.

June 14, 2007 at 3:12 am
do any of u like steve irwin?
~vrael
June 14, 2007 at 7:16 am
lovethebooks~Yes, I like Steve Irwin. I watched his escapades in several of my science classes. He is a very bold and daring person. I was extremely sad when I read that he died last year. I almost cried because he was about the same age as my parents and the way that he died is very depressing too.
DragonRider~No, I am not in school anymore, though I continue to do work in a Precalculus class with Stanford. I am also very academic. I know people who would and have called me a “nerd.” Just with what I’ve said now and previously, I’ve given you many clues to who I am on the other site. However, I decided to write this comment in the “voice” that I write with on the other site, so I guess that this message is your biggest clue. This is a really fun game. If you guess who I am, I will tell you about myself and who I really am (of course except for my last name, which is confidential).
lovethebooks, are you on the other forum too? If so, you can also guess who I am.
Talk 2 u all later!
~saphira
June 14, 2007 at 2:31 pm
Are you Jen? (thenewkidfromcollege)??? She seems very academic, but maybe not if you are only doing pre-calculas. Are you….well. stylez is like 16 but he is ALWAYS talking about “yourteensite” and never nething else, but if that IS you sorry 🙂 don’t be mad at me. hmmm. let me check the other site, then i will guess again.
~Glaedr.
ps i liked steve irwin, but i think the idea that his wife and daughter are making a show almost exactly like his old one is stupid.
June 14, 2007 at 2:53 pm
I don’t know. I asked on the other site if neone was doing pre-calculas. I don’t really expect you to answer so whoever DOESN”T answer is probably you! or you could lie. that is a possibility. anwer but say that you dont do pre- I GIVE UP ON THIS WORD! grrr.
Do any of you agree/disagree with the idea of Brom being Eragon’s father??? just a new subject up for debate WHICH I LOVE TO DO! ok.
~Glaedr
June 14, 2007 at 3:53 pm
if trying to win a trip to the aust. zoo. newayz wait wat site are u both on?
~vrael
June 14, 2007 at 9:13 pm
lovethebooks~the site is:
the way that i get on to these forums is
1) type “littledailyprophet” into Google or Yahoo search
2) click on the first hit which says “The Little Daily Prophet 2”
3) scroll down and hit “The Inheritance Trilogy” under “Eragon” on the right side column
4) click on the first title, which says “At last Christopher Paolini answers some questions” (this one brings you here) or “rumors about the third and final books of the inheritance trilogy debunked” which is the other site
u can also bookmark these sites.
DR~Since i say that u haven’t guessed me yet, that means that its really easy to guess me cuz there are like only 2 or 3 other people there and by process of elimination, u can guess me really easily. Still, i will wait for u to say who i am on here instead of telling u myself. Don’t be deceived by the identity that i give myself. Remember, i could be lying. “You can’t really know, can you?” (Eragon page 370). Newayz, i’ll give u another clue: i said specifically on the other site that i write as someone else. it should be really easy to guess who i am.
i think that brom is probably eragon’s father, but it may be possible that cp is trying to play a double trick and eragon’s father is actually morzan. unlikely, but i wouldn’t want to rule anything out

ok, yes or no question. are you Timothy Tiong or DoubleJ??? you sound more like DoubleJ. For now that is my guess. but those two are my initial guesses cuz’ those are the MAIN two people on that site besides myself., then Vollar, jen/thenewkidfromcollege, and then bowchickabowbow. so ya. I don’t have the patience to try to find your comment on being on a 2nd site. sory, but its true!!! ok my dad is telling me that i have to go to bed now, so I have to go. won’t be on tomorrow, but i will get on on sat.

June 17, 2007 at 2:44 am
how about….ok you can choose
1) Hljodhr Andlat: Silent Death
2)Brisingr Thornessa: Fire Serpant
or 3) Andlat Oro: Death Arrow
if they are too depressing i can do different ones, ones that have more to do with air, water, and magic. Those just came to mind and sounded cool! Tell me what you think!
~Glaedr
June 17, 2007 at 4:43 pm
no one gets on here nemore.
June 17, 2007 at 10:26 pm
ya, DR, i agree
i think that ppl just lose interest because they get their questions answered and they start doing other things, like maybe go onto other forum or play sports or even read another series and then get on a forum about that new book…
its true that just about every question anyone has that can be answered about the 3rd book already has been answered
Or, ppl could be like me and just be “obsessed” as i was after reading Eldest and come on here in that obsession to read more Eragon/Eldest stuff but then they lose interest with each passing day after reading Eldest. yet anyone can start a “revival” of interest in Eragon/Eldest just by rereading the books cuz they’re so good!!
these are just my thoughts, it is kinda lonely on here. if i can ask a question, what number forum is this that you’ve been on? this is my first, so i guess its different for ppl who’ve been on like 20 and just swtich from 1 place to another
ok, respond to my e-mail, DR, i actually have something else to ask you

June 19, 2007 at 2:40 pm

Hey Tori,
What did u do to make your parents revoke ur Internet Privileges? Or was it because they don’t want u exchanging e-mails with a boy? (especially about my comment where i was just joking when i said i wanted to meet u). If this is true, why do ur parents have access to ur e-mail? And why would they allow u to be on this forum but nothing else?: for example, if u were curious about a place that u heard about and u wanted to research it.
About ur question about dating, u really should watch the video i told u about that had the barlow girls talking. and the other music videos i recommended, sea of faces, i need u to love me, and unchanging one, are really good and completely clean.
Here are the links:
1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2RKyqnze2w
2) http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=1033299209
(btw-this is someone’s myspace account because it was just deleted from youtube)
3) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs6k2lLwOwI
You asked how people would meet the person God prepared for them if they don’t date. First of all, i didn’t say no dating at all. i said that i would wait and not date for now, but i will definitely go out when i meet that person. These people who have great marriages say that when they met their wife/husband, they didn’t go out and “try each other out.” They knew immediately that this person would be their spouse just from seeing and talking to them their first time and going home and thinking about it because God put it into their heart. What i meant, and how i think ur mistaken when u say “If you try, then you will find that person.” is that people shouldnt “Try”. Instead, they should live their life and dwell on GOD’S timing, not their own, and God will bring their future spouse into their life by having them meet that person. So what i mean is that we shouldn’t be asking guys/girls out, but instead we will meet members of the opposite gender, we will talk to them, and if it is the ONE, not only will be know in our heart, but we will develop a RELATIONSHIP that will extend to marriage.
So in a real life situation application, there is a girl, and she goes to school, and then she goes to college, and she hangs out with a bunch of guys and girls, and they are all her close friends, after a year or two, she will start to grow closer to one of her friends, but not date yet, and then after another year, he asks her out, and they go to dinner until they are eating dinner together almost every day and then they get married.
Or a guy graduates from college and finds work in a company, and he meets a co-worker’s sister at a worktime event, and he falls madly in love, but he does not date yet, and after a month with the feeling as strong as before, he calls her and asks her to come to his church, and they are together at church for almost a year, and then he asks her out for lunch one day after church, and for the next two months they are often together doing things like going bowling, playing golf, and having picnics in the park, and then he asks her to marry him.
I just thought of these with my imagination in resemblance to other stories of real people with great marriages. These two instances, assuming they stay chaste and pray to God and listen to God about their relationship, with be life-long marriages.
Oh yea, and Joel Osteen’s church of 40,000 is in one building, it is the largest church in the United States.
Common sense would tell u that 40,000 is not the largest denomination by any means.
In the United States:
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints has about 6 million.
The Roman Catholic Church has 73 million.
Evangelical Christian number 85 million, with 156 million Protestants, of which the Baptists have 47 million.
And also, DR, how do u “date for fun” at age 16 and 17? Going to the movies with a guy and making out with him isn’t real dating? because ur not going to get married? i thought that dating for fun was stuff u did as a 10-year-old where people say that they have a boyfriend/girlfriend at school they hang around with.
from writing this, i feel like my tone on here is not very nice. if this is true, sorry and please don’t take it personally. i’m not trying to attack u or anything. C ya.

June 25, 2007 at 5:06 am
Hey, person up there that i don’t remember your name and am too lazy to go look at~ no one can understand what you are saying. At least I can’t. sorry.
I don’t think that Roran will be the next rider, I think he will be the next King of Alagaesia.
Joseph/Saphira/Blagden/DoubleJ (you have a lot of names, which do you prefer?)~ Ok, I understand what you mean about the dating thing.
about the emails, My dad is just paranoid. He thinks that anyone I meet on the internet could be an “online predator” and so he has taken some of my emailing privelidges away. My dad does have access to my emails, but he says he doesn’t check them and I trust him. I have to get on the internet bcuz I am taking World Geography on the internet. He has said that I can stay on here. If my dad ever thought I was breaking his trust, he would take ALL of my privelidges away. So I have to do as he says.
I understand about Joel Osteen’s church, I was just a little confused. It is amazing how many people, just in general, believe in God. It seems that people as a race need to have something to worship, a supreme being. Ya know??? I am in that majority, it is just amazing to me how many people believe in some supreme creator…
Dating for fun is taking a group of people, double dating for example, just as friends to dances (good ones) or skating (classic or ice) and fun things like that. Movies and making out are NOT my idea of a date. Making out is not something that teenagers should do in my opinion. A small kiss is ok, but no more then that. newyz. ok i have to go now. C U ALL L8R

Hi,
i am currently really, really busy (as well as behind) with precalculus and i’m trying to do 12 hours a day, so that’s why i’ve been going to sleep at 2 and 3 o’clock the past few days
tori/dr~u know that u can create as many gmail accounts as u want. if u ever want some privacy, u should do that. i have like 6 or 7 e-mail accounts, and my parents only know my password for 1. it’s not like i’m doing anything illegal, because i only really use one, and it’s my school e-mail and i only get e-mails from teacher and a ton, like a few a week, from my speech and debate coaches.
double dating? at age 16?? that’s what people do here at age 10. probably a third or more of 17-year-olds have lost their virginity here.
i agree that a lot of people believe in God. the obvious reason is that God is real. i did a little philosophical thinking yesterday, and i realized that people of every land believed in G(g)od. And they just about all offered sacrifices. the people of the americas sacrificed real people, as did the africans, and the people of asia and europe sacrificed animals (and all sorts of mixed combinations of sacrifices among people throughout the world). But God was like, “First of all they are worshipping me in the wrong forms. I dont’ have a white beard and throw thunderbolts. Second, I’m getting tired of all of these sacrifices. People are killing too many animals and people. And yet they have to keep on sacrificing because each nonperfect animal and person can only make up for a small amount of sin.
So I have to do something, but what? I got it, I’ll give them a perfect sacrifice, because a perfect sacrifice means that it has unlimited/infinity ability to forgive sins. It won’t be one of those crappy animals sacrifices. And the air up here is getting somewhat smelly from all those dead animals. (Just kidding).
But what could be perfect? What sacrifice could have infinity potential to forgive sins? I don’t know. I don’t think a perfect thing in this messed-up world exists.
Wait, I know something that’s perfect: Me! I’m the only perfect thing in the universe. So let me think up this master plan. I’ll send myself to be that sacrifice. But should I really do this? Remember, I’m the creator and ruler of the universe, the king of kings, the all-knowing, all-powerful, all-present being. And besides, the Muslims wouldn’t believe that someone as powerful as me would become a puny little humans. Ah man! This decision is so hard!.
But, let me listen to my heart…There is nothing that could stop me from giving all of myself to the people I love…there is nothing that could stop me from giving mankind the best present in history…there is nothing that could stop me from giving joy, hope, love, and my life and my pride to the race that I love the most, the creatures I created in my own image and likeness…so I’ll let myself suffer and die as a sacrifice…I’ll send myself…
as Jesus Christ the Messiah, the Son of God.

Blagden~ The double dating thing is mostly to do with my religion. Our prophet has said that we shouldn’t date until we are 16 yrs old. We “go out” but really all that means is that you both like eachother. About Jesus being a sacrifice, do you believe that God and Jesus are the same person? That he actually decided for himself at THAT time to go and be a sacrifice for the world? I understand about being busy. I am totally busy too. I would be miserable if I were as busy as you. 😦 I sympathize you. Do you enjoy being so busy, or do you wish you had more free time? Well, hope you don’t wear yourself out too much!C YA!
Bergonzie~ If you write a book and call it Saphirian and actually try to do anything with it (as far as trying to publish it)….then you’ll be sued or shunned (i love that word!) by Eragon fans. By the way, CP doesn’t look at these sites, so saying you are inspired by YOUR trilogy could be talking to anyone on this site.

listen im single 14 and good looking any girls intrested e mail me at eaglesfanmand@hotmai.com
July 5, 2007 at 5:33 am
DragonRider Tori~i see that u are not as addicted to this site as u used to be. neither am i. i thought that Jesus as God was what Mormons believe in too. your prophet must have come up with a lot of rules. the rules at my church come from the Bible. as Ajith Fernando said, the rules don’t come word-for-word from the Bible, but the Bible offers guidelines for every situation in our daily lives and how to behave accordingly. he also says that Jesus didn’t recite his story to a scribe because He meant for us to grapple with truth, and in doing so, to come out with a stronger faith. and i am very busy but i try to relax as much as possible, especially the weekends, and i like math. also, i wouldn’t be so sure ur dad isn’t looking at ur e-mail, that is, if he knows ur password.
lovethebooks~i am 16 years old
armand morales~i suggest that u go onto a dating site for your purposes. and other advice i can offer u: don’t go looking for girls. not only will having gone out with other girls hurt any future marriage, but it’s unnecessary because u will meet girls without looking for them. besides, having a meaningful relationship with a girl on the internet in unrealistic. u should have friends who are girls, but not have a romantic relationship with them. this is the best way because u get to tell ur friends you have girlfriends and look cool, even though they are just friends and u r not interested in them, u don’t get distracted from school and sports so easily, and who knows, one of these “friends” you may discover is a perfect match for u and later u may develop a deeper relationship with her and get married. these types of marriages than began with “best friends” are the most perfect of marriages and almost always last for life.
One more thing, from personal experience: wait, especially since u are only 14. there are numerous girls i’ve liked and exactly 7 girls i have been “absolutely crazy” for, these are 7 girls i would have died for. but none of these relationships became anything. the closest i got was holding hands with one of them. and i can’t tell you how f***ing GLAD i am that i never became close to any of them. each time i break up, i’m sad, but when i met the next girl i went crazy for, i was really happy that i never had a close relationship with any of the previous girls.
for example, now that i’m almost 17, i just fell in love with a girl at my church. i don’t know her very well, but i know she has never had a boyfriend or anything. knowing that i have never been very close to a girl makes me extremely glad because it gives me nothing to feel guilty about and i can truthfully tell her that she is my first girlfriend. even so, i am following the “best friends” rule and she does not know that i like her. i don’t know if she likes me either, but even if i found out that she did, i wouldn’t try to go out with her for at least another 2 years. in other words, i would want to form a strong friendship and bond before i pursue her, and i would wait for God’s calling by praying daily. going straight to dating is like skipping the first half of the steps and going for the last few. the strongest relationship is not one where people jump up to the last few steps and lose their balance, but one that has a firm foundation in the bottom steps.

Armand Morales~ The name hasn’t been released yet, the egg will hatch in the 3rd book, we all hope that Arya and Eragon will fall in love (well at least Arya will) but it is very unsure wether this is actually going to happen or not.
Lovethebooks~ I am LDS or Mormon
Blagden~ I still like this site, I am just very busy lately. We get all our rules out of the scriptures. The ones that aren’t in there are for our benefit, like not smoking, getting tattoos, etc. wearing modest clothing. Things like that. We believe that Jesus and God are different people.

TLS- Who else could have taken? CP Says (way at the top some where) that the person who took it started the hunt for the egg. Between Brom Joed and Morzan.
July 9, 2007 at 9:49 pm
maybe it’s another player in this twisting, turning game….
July 9, 2007 at 9:51 pm
found it!!
*************************************************************
Who originally stole Saphira’s egg from Galbatorix and why did he/she succeed to take only one of the three?
I may tell this story more fully in the future, but what I can say is that it was taken by an agent the Varden had placed within Galbatorix’s castle. Only one egg was taken because he or she botched the job and, as I said in Eragon, the thief did not take the egg to the Varden, as originally planned, but fled with it. This led to the great dragon egg hunt among Morzan, Brom, and Jeod.

PLZ DON”T TAKE THIS OFFENSIVELY!!! im not mad, i just can usually convince people to c things my way and you are stubborn. Don’t take that wrong, it is a good thing…..!!! in all honesty, this whole paragraph is one huge strange (very strange) compliment….!!! 🙂

July 18, 2007 at 9:05 pm
BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER.
July 18, 2007 at 9:06 pm
i have said that sooo many times. Sry if i sound stubborn.
July 18, 2007 at 9:06 pm
🙂
July 18, 2007 at 9:08 pm
Even though Rhunon swore not the make instruments of war, she made a shield that can’t break, so shouldn’t she be able to teach someone else how to make the rider’s swords? Then she would not be making them just judging them.
July 19, 2007 at 1:30 am
yeah that might work. That would give Eragon another sword this time matching his dragon’s color.
July 20, 2007 at 2:55 am
Book lover~ You do sound stubborn, but it is ok, we still like you!!!!
Knight of the book-covered table~ YES, actually i did miss you, i had wondered where you went off to. I am flattered that you enjoy my prescense on this site so much!!!
Bruhall~ A shield is not an instrument of war, it is a device of protection (sorry i just had to say it like that) 😉
Book Lover (again)~ I think that Eragon will FIND Brom’s blue sword, not actually get one of his own…., ya know, weapon under the roots (figurative or litteral i am not sure) of the menoa tree!
so YUP!!!
cuz i am so cool like that 8)
😀
~GLAEDR
ps, i love smileys 😛
July 20, 2007 at 1:16 pm
Well he might find Brom’s sword. Idk i just want to read the third book. 😉
July 20, 2007 at 9:56 pm
lovethebooks~ 12… and actually ive been on here before… i lost the site though. and why did you say vreal at the end of your comment? sorry if i spelled it wrong…
Book Lover~ yes, you are stubborn… but one of the many points i like you. a lot like me, actually… when i get my mind set, i dont change it… i dont like being wrong, but when i am i accept it… or say that the thing lies and im still right… 🙂
DR~ why did you say Glaedr at the end of your comment?
VH
July 20, 2007 at 11:16 pm
🙂 Cool, i can’t wait for the third book.
July 21, 2007 at 4:46 am
VH~After you left, it was a thing that the other people on here came up with. We got a DIF. name from Eragon/Eldest and post it as our “name” at the end of out comments. Mine is Glaedr, lovethebooks is Vrael, another person on here before WAS Blagden, but he doesn’t come on here much nemore, and another person is Brom… make sense!?
BookLover~ I agree, I TOTALLY WANT TO READ THE BOOK!!!1
and, also just as a side not, TOTALLY PSYCHED FOR HP7 TOMORROW! AAAAAH
ok done.
~Glaedr
July 21, 2007 at 1:51 pm
I still want to read the third book. Does any one think that Eragon has a sister that he dosen’t know about. That would fit in with the name of the trilogy. It is just a suggestion.
July 21, 2007 at 2:38 pm
hmmmmm THAT would be AWSOME!!!!……ok hold on,………………..what if Elva is Eragons sister?!?! Remember she doesn’t have parents! That would make me happy. cuz’ i like elva a lot and having her related to the main character would be AWSOME!
July 21, 2007 at 3:36 pm
It might happend. I don’t think it is Elva though. She is to young i think.
July 21, 2007 at 7:11 pm
ya never kno there dad mite of forgot to use a condom lmao
July 21, 2007 at 7:22 pm
I have to ask… Do you think that Roran could be the next Dragonrider?
July 21, 2007 at 7:23 pm
I mean…it’s possible, right? Or did I miss something in the book?
July 21, 2007 at 7:24 pm
I’m new at this…
July 21, 2007 at 7:26 pm
Sorry! I just realized someone already took arya, so I’m changing my name to Saphira…I hope someone doesn’t have that.
July 21, 2007 at 7:27 pm
Will someone get on! I want to know if it’s possible! (I’m the arya that put in the last four entries…)
July 21, 2007 at 7:30 pm
😦 Please…
July 21, 2007 at 7:35 pm
If anyone is on, it would be nice if you would answer… 😀
July 21, 2007 at 7:36 pm
thx, DR. i wondered where every1 was when i got back…..
I FELT SOOOO ALOOOOONE!!!!
July 21, 2007 at 7:37 pm
Maybe the next Dragon Rider is someone we haven’t met yet…though that seems unlikely to me, since we knew murtagh before he was a rider…
July 21, 2007 at 7:42 pm
I know no one else is on, or they aren’t answering, and i’m making an extremely long list, but…has anyone seen the Eragon movie? I was so mad…I think most every part in that movie is wrong. And I think someone is good at making books into movies should make it…like the people who made the lord of the rings! I love those movies. I’m such a geek, but hey! I love it. Does anyone else love it? Has anyone else seen it? I know they skipped some parts, like Prince Imrahill and bombadill, but other than that, they did great!
July 21, 2007 at 7:44 pm
Knight of the book-covered table, are you still on? I didn’t realize you had made an entry till just now…sorry!
July 21, 2007 at 7:47 pm
anyone… 😦
July 21, 2007 at 7:49 pm
I’m going to get off if no onw answers in 3….2….1… 8(
July 21, 2007 at 7:50 pm

July 21, 2007 at 7:52 pm
I’m off….maybe i’ll get on later, though…
July 21, 2007 at 7:56 pm
U REFER 2 ME, THE GREAT Knight of the Book-Covered Table, AS NOONE?!? J/K!!!
I SAW THE MOVIE, HATED THAT IT WAS A DIFFERENT STORYLINE W/ “ERAGON” FOR THE TITLE
YOUR R NOT A GEEK. IF U WERE, I WOULD BE 2!! 🙂 😉
YA, I’M STILL ON!!!
July 21, 2007 at 8:07 pm
HEY COME BACK
July 21, 2007 at 8:37 pm
Yes, Roran can b the next rider. I think he will b.
July 21, 2007 at 8:40 pm
I hate the movie too. It dosen’t follow the book at all. 🙂
July 22, 2007 at 10:07 pm

July 23, 2007 at 5:45 pm

….AND THAT’S ABOUT IT….
July 23, 2007 at 7:00 pm
hey im new…….wuts kickin?
July 23, 2007 at 7:03 pm
hello
July 23, 2007 at 7:08 pm
my theory is that roroan will b the next rider but the question is wich side will he b on?
think about his dad is dead because of eragon his future wife is in grave danger cause of him and he is responsible for an entire town while eragon gets to save every 1 and b the big hero. for eragons sake i hope hes good
July 23, 2007 at 8:41 pm
I think that Roran will b the next dragon rider too. It would help him rescue Katrina.
July 23, 2007 at 8:45 pm
I can’t wait to read the third book. I’m like going to die waiting for it.
July 24, 2007 at 1:49 am
I totally disagree. Roran can’t be the next rider. Remeber, it took 2 WHOLE BOOKS for Eragon to learn all he absoluetly NEEDED to know, and he still got his butt totally KICKED by Murtagh, Roran would need all that training as well! NO WAY…..too much training, not enough book space, It will be Arya, then she will already know magic, how to fight, and everything else. She would just need to learn how to do arial (sp?) combat on her GREEN DRAGON!!!! Roran will prob be the KING of Alagaesia.
Finished HP7, LOVED IT! When everyone has read the book we shall disscuss, but absolutly NOO SPOILERS~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~NONE WHATSOEVER. spoilers just ruin it for other people, so just don’t.
Shadeslayer~Hello!!! 😀
~Glaedr
July 24, 2007 at 1:40 pm
No Roran can still be the next dragon rider. Training has noting to do with it. Eragon could teach him what he knows. But i can’t wait to find out who it is going to b i want o read the third book.
July 25, 2007 at 12:37 am
carp! i can’t find my last entry. sup peoples i left 4 2 months and came back. the funny thing is that i am leaving again in 2 dayz so whatta miss. i got a really bad sunburn a couple of weeks ago, toasted my hair, got a short hair cut 4 my uncle’s wedding, flirted outrageuosly ( what! they said i was smookin’ hot!) and estimated a wheight gain of about 5 pounds. u don’t want to know the rest. oh and i pinned this guy who is taller than me in about 3 sec. watta wimp. 8)
July 25, 2007 at 12:39 am
write back soon i have 2 pack again. 8(
July 25, 2007 at 12:50 pm
Hi Nasuada. 🙂 I can’t wait to read the third book. Does any one think that when Eragon opens the vault of souls that Brom will be one of the souls in it and come back to life?
July 26, 2007 at 4:20 am
Book Lover~ first of all, no, i don’t think that brom will come back to life, when Eragon goes to the Vault of Souls I think that the souls of ALL the GOOD Dragon Riders will give him their strength. Like have their souls help him. ya know? and It wouldn’t matter wether Eragon or Oromis trained Roran assuming he was the next rider, it would still take a lot of time to train him to the point that he would even be able to help AT ALL! Roran is NOT going to be the next rider…
Nasuada~ I was wondering where you had got off to!!!
July 26, 2007 at 2:34 pm
Brom might have been a good dragon rider. He did kill the last of the forsworn. Roran MIGHT be the next dragon rider. U never know.
BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER.
sry i had to say that.
I have to go
Book Lover
July 26, 2007 at 2:49 pm
I agree with Book Lover! Brom can’t be Eragon’s father! Have you even read the books? 😉
July 26, 2007 at 2:54 pm
Is anyone else on?
July 26, 2007 at 2:57 pm
Okay… well, I don’t care what you say, if Brom were his father…that just wouldn’t even be right! I can’t explain, but how could Brom even be Eragon’s father? It just… well, I don’t know…
July 26, 2007 at 3:00 pm
I feel so lonely…
July 26, 2007 at 3:02 pm
does anyone konw what time frame this is? It’s not right, at least, not for me!
July 26, 2007 at 3:03 pm
Totally random
July 26, 2007 at 3:05 pm
I’m off…for now, anyway. 🙂
July 26, 2007 at 4:18 pm
Yes some one else that dosen’t think Brom is Eragons father. I finally have someone else that agrees with me! 😉
Book Lover
July 26, 2007 at 5:03 pm
Is anyone on now?
July 26, 2007 at 5:07 pm
Book Lover? i guess i’m going to ask you what you think about the green dragon. Who do you think? I think, possibly, Roran, but Arya could be too. Or someone we haven’t met. Hey, do you think it’s possible that the first dwarf rider could get the greendragon? I know it may not be possible, but…
July 26, 2007 at 5:08 pm
I think it would be cool…
July 26, 2007 at 5:12 pm
someone? 😦
July 26, 2007 at 5:16 pm
Anyone can answer the question about the green dragon rider….please? Anyone? I feel so alone (Cries)
July 26, 2007 at 5:18 pm
Can someone tell me when they’re on? I feel like whenever i’m on, no one else is…and I feel so lonely! (me: Breaks down in sobbing again)
July 26, 2007 at 5:21 pm
any time now… (Me: Holding back tears, sobs again)
July 26, 2007 at 5:24 pm
I have to get off in three…two…one…
July 26, 2007 at 5:25 pm
I’m off!
July 26, 2007 at 5:26 pm
I’ll get on later…(Voice cracks, sobbing)
July 26, 2007 at 9:13 pm
There are tons of reasons that indicate Brom being Eragon’s father…I am not even going to explain it again…it isn’t worth it. Be a little creative!
Don’t even SUGGEST that I have not read the books…..why would I be on here otherwise?! 😦
A dwarf can’t be a Rider. There IS a reason for this and that reason is that Dwarves are not included in the treaty between Dragons and Elves/Humans. SO a dwarf will NEVER be chosen for a rider. Besides, dwarves hate flying. Why would one even WANT to be a rider?! The Green Dragon will probably choose an Elf rider. Not necassarily Arya, but probably not a human…..

HEY, DR, WANNA SEE A STORY START OF MINE?
August 2, 2007 at 5:02 pm
POSTING….
August 2, 2007 at 5:05 pm
The Partnership
Chapter 1:Christy
Christy Vermudan was simply walking home that fateful evening. Just walking from school to her house, something she had done for several years. The difference? That night was to change her life forever.
Christy wasn’t popular at her school. She was the “problem child”, the one kid who always got into trouble, never did her homework, and had no hobbies. Needless to say, she had no friends. She also had no family, which the kids at school thought was weird, as well as the reason she was so terrible. Nobody knew that Christy was smart enough to get mostly A’s, fit enough to be in at least one sport, and that if she hadn’t wanted to get into trouble that she could have either stayed out of it or, in the very least, to find a way to not get caught. Nobody knew that Christy had friends-very few, but loyal. And that was the way Christy liked it.
So she played dumb. Made simple mistakes. Tried not to take an interest in anything. Pushed away almost anyone who tried to get too close.
So is it really so surprising that she walked home alone? Not really. Would things have turned out better if she had had a thousand friends with her that night? Probably not.
Chapter 2:The Stakeout
Prince Aldeir waited. All he wanted was the girl. The girl with the ruby hair and the emerald eyes, who always walked under the tree he perched in now, every night. The girl who was always alone. His people had waited years for this, and he would not allow himself to ruin all their waiting. And yet…. yet he had doubts. This girl had no family, no friends…but that didn’t worry him. All that meant was nobody would really look for the girl, nobody would fret that she had disappeared.
It was all too easy, really. Perhaps that was what bothered him. He had never liked this sort of thing, this sneaking around, and this secrecy.
I would have preferred a good, clean fight, even if the odds had been fifty warriors to just me! He wouldn’t have minded-the Heverd’lin were half-elves, after all. Maybe they were only half as strong and as fast as elves, so what? His family’s line was the one that intermingled the least with humans-they were almost all elf, over half. They were strong and fast, which was why his family was the royal family.
Why, they even observed most elvin customs-so of course Prince Aldeir was trained in combat, as his sisters were. Imagine, humans didn’t bother training females! They just expected them to do the housework; to worry about their children….Aldeir shook his head. Fools!
Ah, well. That meant this girl wouldn’t be trained, either.
That doesn’t mean I shouldn’t pay attention to my task! Aldeir thought. The girl could have already gone by!!
He saw her now. Why the Council of Elders wanted her was beyond him. All they would say was that it had to do with before my time! As if I wasn’t old enough to know! I’m already five hundred-it’s time they treated me as such! And it will be another six hundred years before I’m old enough to join their talks, fumed Aldeir. Immortality, or whatever we’ve got, sure has its downsides, he thought grimly. Ah, well, here she comes.
Chapter 3:The Kidnap
Christy heard a noise-a crack that wasn’t right. A sound that was too big for a squirrel to make-but not too big for a person, or a bear. In either case she was in trouble. The bears were just coming out, and were very hungry after their long winter in the Halls of Ice, where they went to spend the summer. But a fall bear wouldn’t follow her. A fall bear wouldn’t hesitate to attack.
If it was a person, well, that was weird. Nobody walked this way anymore, not since Autumn Silver graduated. Christy tried to think. She soon came up with the only solution she could see: I’m being followed. Christy walked faster, her feet giving her away on the rock-strewn path.

New to this, however this should be fun to chat with some others about a series that i love and need to reread a few times, can’t wait for the third.
I’m also hoping to become a novelist, should i post some of my work here for some creative critism.
August 5, 2007 at 9:44 pm

The dark lord: I would love to read something that you wrote. Please post it.

BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER. BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER. BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER. BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER. BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER. BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER.

August 5, 2007 at 10:36 pm
Book Lover~ You are hilarious, you always manage to make me smile! 😀
The Dark Lord~ I would love to read some of your work, I am working on a story, I posted part of it up……a long ways, but I am going to post it again after I work on it a little bit!!! Being a novelist is a good goal, but don’t let it take over because it doesn’t pay very much unless you grow to be very famous like JK Rowling and get movie deals and stuff and in THAT case, then by all means, become a novelist!!!!
kk i will be gone for 4 days starting tomorrow, don’t write TOO terribly much while I am away, cuz that is just a whole lot of reading for me!!! And honestly, I don’t have enough time to read a bazillion comments! I DO HAVE I LIFE!!! (sheesh 🙄 who am I kidding?) k, c u all l8r!!!
August 6, 2007 at 1:27 am
DR: how can you have a life if u get on here?
any way i still can’t wait till i have the third book. I don’t even know its name. I hope that cp is done writing it. If not i want to kill him(jk if i killed him then the book would b unfinished. That would b even worse)
August 6, 2007 at 4:26 am
This is a part of a chapter that i’ve written called “The Dark Lord Again” it is the 24 chapter of the thrid book of a trilogy i’m going to name “The Elder”. Only just started working on it and thought i’d write a chapter of the final book before writing my in detail plot.
Grief gripped Elesar, so much had gone wrong thousands had died, he couldn’t help but feel it was all his fault, everybody he loved had suffered. But what pained him most was he was helpless to change it, why had he allowed Darrow to part paths. Why had his cousin felt he needed to rally the forces of Elder and march on the fortress Orom, against the Dark Lord. Now Darrow was dead like all who had defied the Dark Lord, all who had thought that he Elesar would save them, defeat the most powerful magician to walk the face of the world.
Elesar started climbing the stone steps he had seen them before but couldn’t remember, it was as if it wasn’t his memory. But of course it hadn’t, he had witnessed the Dark Lords memory how he had risen to power, a gift from the spirits hollow of Dragenheim. The memory swam before him like the minds of those who he had failed, the Dark Lord had been ruthless the flight of stairs led to large stone hall. He had murdered them all, possessed the king and now he sat in the throne, ruler and tyrant of the land.
Elesar reached the final step his heart raced now he would step inside the hall and face his foe one last time, this time one of them would die. But he encountered something he had not expected, before him instead of a large open arch stood a behemoth of stone. A giant serpents head protruding from the dark lime wall. Elesar stared at the head, it seemed alive it’s eyes seemed to wink at him, but he was sure it was the flickering light of torches that lined the antechamber catching in its curves.
‘Open’ Elesar said clearly and crisply, magic gushing from his body from his being as if the dam had finally burst.
Again Elesar was sure the serpent had winked, but he had little time to linger, it reeled to life it a malicious smirk etched in the stone its gigantic jaw opening into a cavernous mouth. It had no fangs, the serpent was merely the last precaution to keep the unwanted from what lay beyond.
The fires flickered and dimmed and failed casting him into a darkness greater than night, but he could see from within the serpent’s mouth before him a faint light pierced the darkness, a faint hope.
‘This is a mistake…’
His own voice echoed in the air around him but Elesar had said nothing, again he was sure that his mind was tormenting him, again it seemed to unnerve him dishearten him.
‘…You will die…’
Elesar knew it was here, it was always following him haunting his footsteps, a mere shadow of himself haunting him, hidden in the darkness he saw a face identical to his own. Because it was his face, pale illuminate with high cheekbones and brilliant blue eyes.
‘…This is not your fate…’
Elesar stared at what he knew what he had been told was his Doppelganger, it would do all in its power to have him fail, to quicken his death. The shadow was the greatest omen of death.
‘I must do this…’ Elesar demanded of the darkness, his shadow had vanished his Doppelganger gone.
Elesar entered the room, his mind racing, it was eerily dark, however its walls seemed to radiate light. The hall was smaller than he expected it to be, far smaller than the memory he had relied upon to find it showed it had been. The walls changed colour from deep velvet to a swirl of magenta and teal, Elesar knew he had encountered this substance before. He had been ambushed, and his magic had failed, the memory horrified him. Elesar turned on the spot and the serpent’s mouth snapped shut with a sickening squelch. Vivid memories of an encounter that had plagued him shot through his mind, he had never understood what had happened. Again he had been deceived defeated by the Dark Lord, how could he have been so foolish, why had he thought it would be straightforward when nothing had been.
‘There is always hope’ the words he had said, words he had used numerous times seemed hollow and empty.
Elesar has sensed something, an evil chill emanating from the centre of the chamber, tendrils of darkness formed together creating the silhouette of a person, the Dark Lord. The darkness did not solidify into a person, no they surrounded the Dark Lord shrouding him in an unnatural darkness, it was his cloak, it his him from the world.
‘What is this?’ Elesar asked infuriated he was sick of games and tricks, he wanted it to be over anything for it to be over.
‘A trap’ the Dark Lord replied his voice high cold and mirthless ‘one that you will never escape, this is the end of you.’
August 6, 2007 at 4:29 am

You’re entitled to your opinion about Brom, however all my theories about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows were correct, so i think i’ll stick with my theory 😉

August 7, 2007 at 8:49 am
Can use tell me what you think of my prologue, does it have enough detail? does it reveal too much of the villians.
Also i’m thinking of naming the book Dragenheim or The Spirits Hollow, which do you think is best?
Prologue – The Dark Lord’s Request
A strange man stood alone, before him was a case of stairs dark and slick. The passageway was lined with torch brackets and he dreaded what would come next, the man was different from the usual, he was a warlock. However he was different from most magicians. Orak was his name, its origin came from an ancient language that only he knew. Orak climbed the steps the flickering torch light casting ever changing shadows. He was the most powerful warlock in the Dark Lord’s service and he knew this meeting would not go, as he would have liked, he had failed the Dark Lord his armies defeated the boy remained alive.
Orak ascended the final step and quickly rushed through a fangless stone serpent’s mouth, he entered a large hall of dark lime stone. It was empty except for a crude throne at it farthest end and the thing sitting in it, on closer inspection he realised a body lay at his feet shaking violently. Orak felt sorry for the wretched being who he had no doubt was taking the brunt of the Dark Lord’s fury.
Orak walked forward swiftly, it seemed to take forever for him to reach the throne, he fumbled in his robes and pulled from it a long twisted wand of elder.
‘My lord’ Orak said entering a low bow and presenting the wand ‘I heard your wand was destroyed, I present to you a new, a better wand.’
Orak stood still presenting the wand, the Dark Lord sat their hidden behind his hood and cloak of darkness, and tendrils of it surrounded him blurring all features. He was looking at the twitching body at his feat, Orak didn’t dare look he kept his attention on his lord. A lord he despised and hated beyond any living being, who he was forced to serve through magic that he had once created, fury shot through him at the thought that his own invention had been used to enslave him.
‘I have no use for that’ the Dark Lord said cruelly and his voice cut through Orak who had hoped it would please him, reduce the pain he knew he would soon endure.
The Dark Lord raised his head and looked at him, a flash of scarlet within the darkness of his hood sent a chill of fear into Orak, he could feel hatred surging from the twisted being before him.
‘My lord?’ Orak asked knowing it was what he wanted ‘is the wand not worthy of you?’ then he added boldly ‘what happened to your old wand?’
Pain exploded inside Orak’s head as if it had split open, like it was being ripped apart by cruel talons of steel.
‘I made a mistake’ the Dark Lord said his voice high and bitter ‘I should have foreseen it, magic that has not been seen for a millennia.’
Orak regained himself, the pain had subsided, he knew not of what the Dark Lord spoke. He hid that he wished the magic had killed him, destroyed him. He would not ask more questions Orak wished no more pain inflicted upon him, he stowed the wand within his robes.
‘Explain to me what happened?’ the Dark Lord asked softly, Orak knew that tone carried more danger than any threat or fury that escaped his masters cursed lips. Orak wasn’t sure what he was being asked but presumed it meant to the events concerning the boy Elesar.
‘I prepared the army’ Orak said reciting what had happened ‘and marched on Illyra, were the boy was hiding. We encountered an enemy force and a battle ensued, I unleashed the Heliopath…’
Orak’s voice faltered, he knew whatever he said next he would suffer for it, he took a deep breath and tried to slow the beats of his heart.
‘I unleashed the Heliopath’ Orak repeated prepared for what would happen next ‘slaying all in its path, then…I don’t understand what happened, it was like the spirits of the dead joined the battle.’
‘Spirits of the dead’ the Dark Lord said slowly his voice filled with cruel anger and sarcasm that told Orak that he didn’t want to believe it.
‘Yes my lord’ Orak said ‘the boy summoned them, I knew then that the battle was lost but I knew the boy would attack the Heliopath. Not even the dead could stop its rampage of destruction, however the boy killed it extinguishing its fire and vanquishing the shadow.’
‘He destroyed your guardian spirit?’ the Dark Lord asked incredulously ‘is that even possible?’
‘It must be’ Orak replied disheartened creating the creature had cost him much magic he didn’t know if he would be capable of reviving it ‘I don’t know how he did it. But he revealed his location to me…’
‘He defeated you?’ the Dark Lord asked mockingly, Orak didn’t dare stand up for himself, he accepted the insult. He didn’t dare say what he was thinking, that the boy had also defeated the Dark Lord destroyed his wand.
‘I fought him my lord, I broke his blade, discarded his wand’ Orak said explaining what had happened ‘then I stabbed him with my sword.’
‘And he survived?’ the voice again ripped at him incredulously.
‘A stray arrow struck me’ Orak said slightly ashamed at how easily he had been vanquished ‘it was a fatal blow, you know the measures I have taken to survive death, the spirits protected me and I was able to survive. But the battle was over the boy gone, he wont be so lucky next time.’
‘No he wont’ the Dark Lord said pleased ‘I have a request of you Orak, you are my greatest servant. I wish you to find the boy, bring him to me alive, and bring his wand also.’
‘Didn’t he vanish into the shifting sa…’
‘Take my dragon’ the Dark Lord said casually as if it was common for somebody to have a dragon, a creature that Orak knew were just as smart if not more than man ‘I give you my full authority. Use whatever you need, just bring me the boy to me, alive.’
‘Wouldn’t you be more suited’
Pain shot through Orak’s body and he crumpled to the ground in agony his every nerve on fire, the pain passed as quickly as it had come and he returned to his feet.
‘I have more important matters’ the Dark Lord said coldly ‘do not summon me unless you have the boy.’
‘Yes my lord’ Orak said bowing understanding he was now dismissed, again he took another risky chance, he had to know ‘who is he?’
Orak looked down at the young man lying on the floor sheets of black hair covering his face he wore a strange black cloak that looked familiar, the texture was rough yet it was fine.
‘This is Artemis, Palan’s son’ the Dark Lord said an insurmountable jubilation gripping him ‘he spent most of last year with the boy Elesar, they parted paths not long before the battle. He has revealed much’
Orak remembered Palan, he had been the king of Elder before the Dark Lord had risen to power, and his son had been taken into sanctuary, that was almost sixteen years before. Orak turned on the spot and swept out of the hall, he had no choice he would hunt down the boy and bring him to the Dark Lord. However he knew the boy, Elesar held a secret, he knew the location of the Spirits Hollow. Elesar knew its location even if he didn’t realise it, yes he would capture the boy bring him back alive, only luck had saved him before, surely it could not again. Orak would keep the boy alive but it was not clear at what health he would need to be he would torture him if he had to, kill his friends and family without hesitation. But it would be worth it, the Spirits Hollow would allow him to break free of the curse that bound him to the Dark Lord the curse that made him his slave. And then he would kill his lord and the boy and he would rule the land, he it’s true master.
August 7, 2007 at 8:55 am
Do you think Eragon will go to Vroengard and Doru Areaba in the final book.
August 7, 2007 at 1:56 pm

August 7, 2007 at 3:37 pm
Book Lover you are a very weird person, but in a good way, if that’s possible 😉
August 7, 2007 at 3:38 pm
BROM IS ERAGON’S FATHER

formerly known as Jadira….Sorry to DragonRider~Vrael, i wont print like that ne more. =)
August 8, 2007 at 1:05 pm
Ok i’m still dying from not reading the third ook
August 9, 2007 at 5:23 am
I’m currently reading Eragon, now when Brom started teaching Eragon the ancient language Eragon asked if it had a name and Brom said that if anybody knew it’s name that would give that person power over the language and those who use it. So the weapon under the roots of the menoa tree could infact be the name of tha ancient language, well that would be the best weapon…hoping it is.
August 9, 2007 at 1:45 pm
It might b, that is a good idea, but i think that the weapon under the meano tree is probably a weapon. I don’t think it is the name of the ancient languagge. I do think that Eragon will learn the name of the third language in the third book.
August 9, 2007 at 4:25 pm
I didn’t really think the name of the language was under the menoa tree, just hoping…because i’m convinced he’ll learn the name and that is a way that makes sense.
August 9, 2007 at 4:26 pm
…a way that it’s actually been built up.
August 9, 2007 at 4:37 pm
mmmm…it’s 1:38 am here so this site must be british
August 9, 2007 at 8:14 pm
Idk what time this site is on. I haven’t figured it out yet. I do think that Eragon will learn what the name of the third book is. I can’t wait 4 the third book.
August 9, 2007 at 8:24 pm

August 9, 2007 at 8:24 pm

August 10, 2007 at 12:06 am
kk back! the time is french….which frankly, may be the same as the british! I don’t know! And, actually, Book Lover, it is quite possible to have a life and STILL be on this site. And, unless you are all opinionated in such a manner that you would like me to leave, I don’t plan on leaving. Actually, even if you all hated me I still wouldn’t leave. newyz, you should all feel honored to have my prescence on this site! 8) jkjkjk

You did spell Australia wrong, i went off to play some footy.
International Incident, oops too late lol
I like that poem it’s very good, i sux at poems, however can you rate my riddle and come up with the right answer.
The Dark Lord commands you read it.
Two paths lay ahead,
your choices clear you must not guess.
Which is the greater truth,
for one leads to freedom the other to death.
The universe is infinite…
This is the path you must tread…
(you must not guess 🙂 your choice must have a reason)
August 11, 2007 at 5:30 am
The smiley was meant to be a wink, i always do that.
This better work…;-)
Celebrates in advance.
I think if you can’t get the riddle correct, it’ll prove Australia is the best country in the world…my challenge to you 😉
August 11, 2007 at 7:42 pm
Wow a lot of commits since i was last on. So yeah, i have no idea what the answer to the riddle is. I’m not good at riddles.
August 11, 2007 at 9:20 pm
THE RIGHT SIDE, BECAUSE IF YOU’RE ON A SIDE FOR THE RIGHT REASON, YOU’RE RIGHT.
MY REASON:I ALWAYS TRY TO DO WHAT I THINK IS RIGHT. SO IF I’M ON THE RIGHT, OR CORRECT SIDE, FOR THE RIGHT REASONS, I SHOULD NEVER GO WRONG
August 11, 2007 at 9:22 pm
OK, DUNNO IF THAT’S UR “WRIGHT ANSWER” BUT HERE’S A RIDDLE 4
U!!!
My first’s in adventure, but it isn’t in journey,
My second’s in fright, and also in tourney.
My third’s in absent, but it isn’t in gone,
My fourth’s in giraffe, and never in fawn.
My fifth’s in offence, but stays out of attack,
My sixth’s in behind, but it isn’t in back.
Now answer correctly, or you will be eaten,
What is my name, you humanoid cretin!
THIS IS 4 THE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!! 😉
August 12, 2007 at 12:29 am
What to yall think of this theroy (spelling again) what if eragon’s mom didn’t die she just faked it and she is living with the elf famliy who has brom’s sword? Now that would be cool. got to go major thunder storm coming who knows what else. btw No go at riddles but I have one quick one
Mary was taking Bob on a date before they left
Mary shot Bob, held him under water for 2 min.
and then she took him on a date. How is this possible?????????????????????
August 12, 2007 at 3:14 am
There were two people named Bob? I don’t know….
K, here are a few
i borrowed this one from VH so….. if you know it because you’ve heard it before, say so, but don’t answer!
A) What does man love more than life,
Fear more than death or mortal strife,
What the poor have, the rich require,
And what contented men desire,
What misers spend, and spendthrifts save,
And all men carry to the grave?
Same with this one:
B) I turn polar bears white
and I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee
and girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid
and normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
and make your champane bubble.
If you sqeeze me, I’ll pop.
If you look at me, you’ll pop.
Can you guess the riddle?
these ones are my own!
C) Forward I am heavy, backwards I am not. What am I?
D) What comes once in a minute, twice in a moment, but never in a thousand years?
E) What is SO fragile, even saying its name can break it?
kk, put the letter next to your answers!
btw: USA RULES THE WORLD!!!!!! But Japan is slowly overcoming us…… 😥
Isn’t Australia 90% Outback (desert)? Or something like that……. I don’t know. ok!
QI: I doubt it, but maybe……..
Knight of the Book-Covered table: U r hilarious. I always laugh at your comments!!! 😀
Dark Lord: I am amazed. You are actually becoming a regular! Most people who come on here post one comment and never come back unless they are already a regular like myself, knight of the etc etc, book lover, and……..now you! and vh on the “other” site. you are on that one as well though, so ya!
k g2g. c u all!!!!
August 12, 2007 at 3:33 am
Hey… I don’t know if anyone else is on, but I’ve got a suggestion again about the next dragon rider.
Actually, two.
First, maybe it could be elva. I don’t know why, but whatever.
Second, maybe it’s someone they meet when Eragon and Roran go to save Katrina and kill the Ra’zac.
O.K., I lied. Three suggestions.
Third, it’s one of the slaves that are sent to the Ra’zac to send supplies and junk.
What do you think?
August 12, 2007 at 3:38 am
Knight of the book-covered table:
Liked ur poem!
August 12, 2007 at 4:03 am
Okay…so, First of all, I think the title of the book is Empire…It’s suggested on a couple of sites i’ve been on, and it
Second…What time are you on, anyway! I’m always on when no one else is…it’s very annoyin. Here, it is 10:00. I feel so lonely!
(ME: Almost asleep)
August 12, 2007 at 4:06 am
Hey! I just noticed,(And i’m very sorry about it!) That most of you have stories, and I wanted you to know that i am too, But I don’t know if anyone would like it. Them. Whatever. I’ve got “In the shadow of evil” And “A werewolf’s secret”. But the latter isn’t very far.

And about the whole “Brom is Eragon’s father” thing…IT’S IMPOSSIBLE! Morzan is Eragon’s father…Which would have to mean that if Brom were Eragon’s father, than he would have 2 dads, which would be totally messed up, because it clearly states he has a mom too, and the whole…nevermind. And feel free to tell me “I told you so” if Brom ends up being Eragon’s father. But I don’t think he is.
August 12, 2007 at 4:15 am
I’m leaving a whole big thing, and I hope someone reads it, because I would like to have someone’s opinion… 🙂 (Hopeful)

Does anyone know where I could get paperback copies of New moon and Eclipse? Besides Barnes and Noble, I mean. Because I can’t get hardcover, and I don’t know when I’m going to go to B&N… BTW, Maybe Solembum is the next Dragon rider? Is that one possible?
August 12, 2007 at 4:22 am
The correct answer to my riddle is “the universe is infinite” that is an absolute truth. Therefore it doesn’t matter what the other statement was because their is no greater truth than an absolute truth…i hope that makes sense.
August 12, 2007 at 4:22 am
Also, did anyone here know that they might make a twilgiht movie? Go to http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/twilight_movie.html This site if you want to read about it. It’s Stephenie Meyers website…supposedly… (ME: Shifty-eyed)
August 12, 2007 at 4:31 am
I am soo excited my cat JUST had a kitten it is soooooooo cute it is black and white. I do not think solembum could be a rider I mean he is part cat right? what if one of the other foresworn had a child maybe they will be the next rider because it seams that all the new riders fathers have been riders. It would make cents wouldn’t it?
August 12, 2007 at 4:35 am
Is any one on I am so bored like a two by four. I lied about the kitten it is black and pink. I am soooo sorry 😦 😦
August 12, 2007 at 4:36 am
Getting off in 3…2…1…off!
August 12, 2007 at 4:40 am
good nite to all on this site c u all in the morning or afternoon, fine at night you are so pushy geez. ha ha ha 🙂
August 12, 2007 at 4:46 am
i think it’s possible that Brom is eragon’s father. Murtagh only can say that Morzan is Eragon’s father in the ancient laguage because he believes it to be true. That doesn’t make it true. Just sayin’… It’s like when he reads the poem at the blood oath celebration. They ask how he can say that, and he says it’s because he believed it was true. Same thing.
August 12, 2007 at 4:48 am
He does make a good point… And it could happen…But I don’t know, i don’t think it makes sense. Why wouldn’t Brom have told him? I still don’t think it’s true, but how can I argue. NOW I can get off! In 3…2…1…go! I mean, OFF!
August 12, 2007 at 4:51 am
I came up with an answer and i know it’ll sound stupid Knight of the Book-Covered Table, i suck at riddles as well.
Does the name begin with an Ar…
August 12, 2007 at 4:53 am
What Vanir says is the truth.
BROM IS ERAGON’S FATHER
August 12, 2007 at 4:55 am
The third rider will be Vanir…

Hasn’t in the last five or so years the Aussie dollar went from under forty US cents to over eighty? (This question is rhetoric)
What is 100 yen equivalent to? Because the Aussie dollar is over 100 yen…
Australia is mostly desert yes, nearly everybody lives on the east and south coasts of the country which is nice and green.
Queen Islanzadi i think she might be a Necrophiliac because bob is dead, especially after all that 😉

OH, WELL…..

What was the answer to your riddle
August 12, 2007 at 9:17 am
I have no idea
August 12, 2007 at 3:10 pm
wats up with everyone doin riddles when im off ….
August 12, 2007 at 6:54 pm
Ok what is up with people writing so many commits now? There is so many people on. I’m not even trying to answer the riddles im not good at them.
August 12, 2007 at 7:27 pm
ok i just finished reading all of the commits. CP said in an interview that the third rider will b someone that is alread in the books. It would have to b someone we know in the books. BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER. Ok i got that over with.
August 13, 2007 at 12:26 am
I think Roran will be the new Rider
August 13, 2007 at 2:41 am
yo book lover wats up wit yo writning commits instead of comments
August 13, 2007 at 3:10 am
Solembum IS a cat. A cat with magical properties/power, but a cat none the less. SO he couldn’t be the next rider.
Dark Lord: STOP SAYING THAT VANIR IS THE NEXT RIDER; I heard you the first 5 times!!!!, furthermore…..HE IS NOT! and 100 yen is = to about $1.25 (american money)
Angela: And niether is Roran, too much training would have to be involved to get him to the point he needs to be.
Saphira: You write A LOT. I am a Eclipse/New Moon/ Twilight EXPERT….yes that site you mentioned IS her official site. You can order Eclipse and New Moon on Amazon.com for really cheap paperback if you want. Or you can order them off her site as well…… AAH, I luv those books!!!! 😀
and it couldn’t be Elva, she is too young, and eragon promised to revert her back to her original self. meaning that she would be just a 1year old baby. so ya.
Vanir: You, my friend, have got it. You are absolutely correct on the Brom/Eragon etc. things.
kk, done answering theories, g2g!!! 8)

August 13, 2007 at 4:46 am
I’ve only said the third rider is vanir three times, well four now.
I will continue to say Vanir is the third rider until i believe otherwise, now because you have told me to stop i will end every post with it.
VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER
August 13, 2007 at 4:51 am
I think green is Vanirs colour…
…VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER (couldn’t resist)
August 13, 2007 at 2:01 pm
RORAN IS THE THIRD RIDER. the color of the third book is green. so whoever the third rider is(Roran) they will have a green male dragon. I think. Oh yeah BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER. sry had to say that.
August 13, 2007 at 3:34 pm
Vanir makes more sense as he’s already trained well and is an elf, Roran also has a bodgy shoulder and is the leader of Carvahall.
VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER 😀
August 13, 2007 at 3:55 pm
Aussie dollar dropped against the yen it’s only 100 yen now, but it’s still 84 US cents. How exactly is $1 Aussie = 100 yen and 100 yen = $1.25 US yet the Aussie dollar is $0.84 US. Am i missing something or does it seem if you take Aussie money and change it to yen then US you’ll be making a profit, then back to Aussie repeat the cycle again…i have to be missing something that’s not possible…it can’t be (must be missing something).
VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER
August 13, 2007 at 3:59 pm
Ignore the post above checked the exchange market and saw i received faulty info on yen US dollar exchange rate, everything makes sense now. Forgive my dribble.
VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER
August 13, 2007 at 4:30 pm
did you know that jesus was a jew?
August 13, 2007 at 4:32 pm
no way…..was he seriously a jew?
August 13, 2007 at 4:32 pm
i kid you not….he really was
August 13, 2007 at 4:39 pm
CP will most likly pick a person for the rider that no one will expect like he did last time I mean did any of you think that Mutag. was going to be the rider??? -and that’s all I have to say about that-can you guess what movie that’s from came out in 1994
I just got my bottom braces on my teeth. ttfn QI
August 13, 2007 at 4:42 pm
why are some peoples names colored and some not I am so confused!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 13, 2007 at 7:31 pm
I did not guess that murtaugh would b a rider. I still think that it will Roran.
August 13, 2007 at 8:13 pm
It’s a possiblity…
I have no idea…
August 13, 2007 at 8:14 pm
Well, I do, Quite a few, actually…but I don’t know which one… :I
August 13, 2007 at 8:15 pm
Something is wrong with puff daddy… I don’t think he’s read the book…
August 13, 2007 at 8:20 pm
Is anyone else on???
I feel so lonely… 😦
August 13, 2007 at 8:21 pm
anyone?
August 13, 2007 at 8:23 pm
Okay, well, anyway… Dragon Rider: Thank you for finally answering me! It made me so happy… And I have to say, that i don’t think i’m going to be getting any books off the internet…the whole parents not trusting the internet thing…they don’t even know i’m on…Anywhere else?
August 13, 2007 at 8:24 pm
Does anyone here watch the Lord of the rings? ANd did anyone know that the Hobbit either is or will do be a movie? I didn’t, but there’s a trailer on youtube… It makes me so happy!
August 13, 2007 at 8:30 pm
I’m going away now…
August 13, 2007 at 8:38 pm
did you all know that the dragon rider is going to be a dwarf in the next one….i heard that somewhere
August 13, 2007 at 9:28 pm
I didn’t not type that! Stupid puffdaddy…I know he can’t be! It’s improbable! Besides, I think it could be Roran, or an elf…not a dwarf
August 13, 2007 at 9:28 pm
Puffdaddy is stupid…so stupid… 😀
August 13, 2007 at 9:34 pm
I don’t like the Eragon movie… I was just reading something about it, and they said it was actually goo! I mean, if you hadn’t read the book…but when I watch it, all i can think about is how wrong it is…
August 13, 2007 at 10:10 pm
saphire: i have read and seen the lotr series. I hope they make the hobbit into a movie it is a good book. I don’t like the eragons movie either.
i can’t wait to read the third book. 🙂
August 14, 2007 at 3:55 am
lotr series are my favourite books and movies ever. I heard about them making the hobbit into a movie ages ago, i can’t remember when but this is old news to me. I’ve never seen the Eragon movie but everybody who’s read the book has told me that it’s bad…will probably never see it…
VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER
August 14, 2007 at 4:38 am
I saw the movie before I read the book so it was good then but when I read the book it was all like you know. But the film makers can’t make a ten hour movie. No offence to CP but if they go by the book for Eldist as a movie it won’t go so good because it jumps back and forth so much. If you have ever played the Eragon game it is the same as the book it is kind of fun at first you start out as Arya and her two buddies and then you are eragon, roran, katrina, then after roran leaves you are eragon, brom, saphira, and when you are in towns you are eragon, brom, and angela and that is as far as i got but it is some thing to pass the time with waiting in agony for many months not knowing anything about the third book at all. OK over that. Good nite to all. ttfn QI
August 14, 2007 at 5:17 am
ya me too….i completely agree with saphira…..saphire seems to have a grasp on this book knowledge like no one else…..she is probably pretty smart too….the movie wasnt as good as the book =\…..i was dissapointed….i hope they do better next time
August 14, 2007 at 5:18 am
but i also think puffdaddy is pretty intelligent….his knowlegde exceeds far beyond his years of schooling at oxford ;)….luv ya
August 14, 2007 at 1:48 pm
Ok umm Roran will b the next rider. I hate the movie. It wuz terrible. I can’t wait to read the third book.
August 14, 2007 at 3:56 pm
Hello
August 14, 2007 at 3:59 pm
I h8 fat dragons is also very stupid. He knows puffdaddy isn’t smart…and he hasn’t, and won’t, go to oxford. How can the video game be good, because it’s probably based on the movie! Okay, so you know what i’m most angry about in the movie? The end, when Eragon fights Durza. That was horrible! And now they can’t do anything with the isidar mithrim because it was never there! That made me mad… 😦
August 14, 2007 at 7:02 pm
The part i hated the most wuz the whole thing. I hated it. Any way i can’t wait to read the third book.
August 14, 2007 at 8:15 pm
Note: The game is baised on the book trust me would I lie about that. That would be stupid to lie I mean really In the game eragon and brom go to Dras Leona and Terim
August 14, 2007 at 10:39 pm

August 15, 2007 at 5:16 pm
did anyone think about this? Galbatorix had two gragons right, then if his first dragon was killed. he stole a dragon hatchling killing the origginal dragon rider. therefore he does not have complete power over the dragon. so far, the origianal dragon rider is not known. In the book, paolini mentions many times if a dragon rider is killed, his or her dragon dies( for some odd reason we dont know of)(yet).this would mean that shruikin, the dragon whos orrigianal dragon rider was killed, should be dead, right. by the time galbatorix stole the dragon, he knew those secrets that should have been forgotten.like how he got powerful, how he twisted the mind of a dragon, how he grows in power, and most complicated but most important is how he somehow killed a dragon rider, but still kept the draagon alive. there are two answers to this.
1. If he did kill the dragon rider, whitch is not the easiest thing, how did he keep the dragon alive?first, i may be wrong but have you noticed that when a dragon is hurt, ussually, the dragon rider is out of his mind. Ex eragon ussually heals saphira before he does anything else. brom loses his mind but keeps some of his mind. galbatorix also loses his mind but regains some of it when he steals the hatchling. why did not murtagh get panic stricken when he saw his dragons foot almost befooted. it is because galbatorix unlinked the minds of murtagh and thorn and put another fake link to make this dragon also a slave. this would also make murtagh escaping from galbatorix immpossible. also how could the dragon be able to become a match for saphira, its magic. in the book1, it is mentioned that galbatorix learns dark magic from a shade. obviously, galbatorix knows a secret that could keep the dragon alive but kill the dragon rider. so shruikin is sleeping and then he is stolen. wont the dragon rider know. galbatorix would torture the dragon so the dragon rider is in agony. this could be a chance to use a spell that will unlink the dragon rider and the dragon. then he could use another spell that would link his mind with the dragon( not like the real link). the dragon is now his slave. galbatorix knows how to get anyone true name. then he could kill the orrigianal dragon rider. he could teach his dragon to use magic using another spell. what im saying is giving part of his soul so his dragon can use magic. this would make galbatorix immortal. he would do this using the voult of souls. this means that the voult of souls can let you see someone in your life who is dead come back. his other dragon. is this why galbatorix tells his razzac to gaurd it. maybe his orrigianal dragon isnt dead. maybe its in there. the voult of souls is probably in vroengaurd. what if galbatorix used the other dragon rider that he killed to bring back his old dragon.this means he has two dragons. also to gaurd the vault of souls, galbatorix is using wild dragons.where he got them, i dont know. this means galbatorix has two dragons. but it is said that beast are rampaging in vroengaurd. galbatorix may still have effection for his old dragon. he has sacrafised someone to bring back his old dragon. maybe his old dragon is disabled like gleadr. this is why he pleaded for a new dragon.
2.if galbatorix knew a spell to unlink a dragon and a dragon rider, he could unlink the minds but keep the old rider. guess who? tornac. he let tornac teach murtagh. why would he let tornac teach murtagh. he is a dragon rider with his dragon twisted by dark magic. tornac was really good sword fighting. he knew how to block his mind. but he died in the fight because galbatorix had complete control over him. still how could murtagh learn how to speek in the ancient language. galbatorix shared his thought about the ancient language. someone could learn the ancient language in a millisecond. this is how thorn learned how to do arial combat so fast. by galbatorix’s slave dragon and his real dragon as i mentioned above. he is probably using his old dragons strenght to get stronger. his old dragon was disable by the stray arrow. a drgon could not die by a single arrow. so galbatorix’s secret is sharing thoughts
email me for ? at kvg2013@gmail.com
August 15, 2007 at 5:21 pm
how did galbatorix learn this magic and how to get strength.
he knew someone in alegasia or somewhere that knew this.
know who?????
the gray folk.
somewhere out there in his voyage, galbatorix found the grey folk who where said to be dead. they were probably in vroengaurd. how come no one can go there without dienig. its because the grey folk are gaurding the vault there.he found them when he was hunting for the razzac. he finds razzac in distant land right.

Alot of reading. anyway i never realized that about Gal and the dragon. It may b true. Idk. I can’t wait to read the third book.
August 16, 2007 at 12:43 pm
Hmm. I only read the first … quarter(?) of this page, and … I wanted to pull my hair out…>.< Honestly…
The books aren’t worth this much debate. Though this discussion DID show me what Paolini fanboys / fangirls were like … xD … Terrifying…
And Dragon Rider, why couldn’t Roran be the next rider? I don’t really care, but “It would take too much training” doesn’t cut it; Eragon managed, and he’s a right fool. Also, this is not a personal attack. I’m simply saying this to avoid the huge over-beating you give any one who dissagrees with you.
Assuming you aren’t a parody of fanboys / fangirls … that’d be funny.
http://www.anti-shurtugal.com/ They provide all sorts of debates regarding Eragon. Enjoy.

August 16, 2007 at 1:34 pm
Hmm. I agree with John; these books aren’t anything great. Now, that doesn’t mean your wrong to like them. I expect I will be flamed rather heavily for saying this, but CP REALLY doesn’t deserve to be published. The story is terribly cliche, the characters flat and boring and the world derivative and illogical. Also, Chris does not yet have a writing “voice”. I don’t know how many of you will know what that is, so I’ll explain. It’s the way a person writes; it’s their style. Chris lacks his own style. Argue all you want, all this tells me is that you haven’t read the books he’s ripped-off. Now, I understand that he was only 19 when he wrote the book, but that is NO excuse for poor writing. He is published, and thus should meet up to publishing standards, NOT 19 year old standards.
Oh and John, I looked at that site. Damned hilarious.
Everyone – Can we PLEASE keep the English at a readable level? It’s terribly difficult to read some of those posts. Caps lock is ridiculous; don’t use it.
I would also like to point out that, no matter how bad and predictable Paolini’s books are, some of these theories are quite good.
Thankyou John for opening up this thread for those who see Eragon and Eldest for what they really are.
August 16, 2007 at 1:49 pm
I just read a few other comments regarding finance (I won’t ask why you were discussing this). The Aussie dollar has been rising steadily for the last 4 years, and if it continues this trend (statistically and professionally) it will be worth more than the American dollar in less than 3 years, tops. And yes, Australia is mostly desert … but that doesn’t mean it has a weak economy; it simply means that they are better with their space (and I will admit this – pretty much everything else) than us American’s. I wish I lived there… 😥
August 16, 2007 at 2:00 pm
I love the books so i don’t like it when people dis them. And CP was only 15 when he wrote Eragon. He is a young writer. He might not have his own style yet he still has to find it. the books do follow star wars alittle bit. but so what it dosen’t matter if they follow other things they r GREAT books.
August 16, 2007 at 2:22 pm
Hi. I’m glad you’re being civilised. 😛
Now it’s not just Star wars that CP steals from, but I won’t argue that point for now. Yes, he was 15 – when he BEGAN his FIRST DRAFT. This doesn’t mean that he finished it at 15. It means that, at 15, CP said “Gee, I’d like to write a book.”\\
PS. I will be using British / Australian English, despite being American. If I had a choice, I would live in wither of those two countries instead of USA. America has, in my opinion, butchered the English language. Just saying this to avoid any ridiculous “you can’t spell, zOmG” arguments. Because, to put it simply, America spells things wrong, not the Brits or Aussies. Not an important issue, though.
But yes. It was at 15 that CP began thinking about maybe writing a draft. He wrote the final thing at 19; therefore, it is the work of a 19 year old.
Hoping I don’t offend.
Kate.
August 16, 2007 at 2:22 pm
they r great… you know how vanir wrote about the whole Brom is Eragon’s father thing? I have come up with an OK argument. Why wouldn’t Brom have told him before he died? And he says that it would distract him, but doesn’t it distract him that Brom dies at all? And more so when he hears (not saying it’s true! Gosh!) that morzan is his father? I think you have nothing to say about that!
August 16, 2007 at 2:24 pm
**Spelling error**
wither = either
August 16, 2007 at 2:28 pm
Kate- you write a book that’s as good and popular as his that gets published and doesn’t copy anything before you turn nineteen! (If you aren’t already) And about the USA…WE WON THE WAR! Anymore questions?
August 16, 2007 at 2:33 pm
Hello Kate, nice to meet another anti.
Thanks. 😛 I’m British, and I must say, I do agree with what you said about America and the English language…Though it isn’t really their fault. They did develop their dictionaries separate to us I have a greater problem with what the internet is doing to the English language…just take a gander at some of those posts up there ^^^.
Ah well.
I would also like to agree with your comments about Paolini’s characters being terribly boring and flat. I found it very difficult to give a damn when any of them died, and none of the deaths surprised me.
I feel we are in for a tough time, Kate, so hold on.
– John.
August 16, 2007 at 2:40 pm
I agree John…It’ll be a helluva ride. 😛
Now, to address what Saphira said, yes, I AM older than Paolini. But surely this does not mean that I cannot judge; after all, do YOU not decide which foods you like, and which you don’t, without ever having made a banquet? Do you judge whether or not you like a movie, even though you have never made one? What I am doing is simply stating facts – The inheritance series is nothing new. What Paolini hasn’t written a story; he’s re-written many others.
P.S I may not have been published by 19, but I have this Australian friend, see, who WILL be. His name is David, and we met through a writing group online. I have read his material, and it is far superior to anything Paolini is yet to write. His world is brilliantly developed and realistic, his characters are deep and his plot is very twisty. He isn;t very confident, however, so I’m not sure he;ll end up going through with it. I really hope he does, though.
August 16, 2007 at 2:42 pm
Also, regarding America. Yes, we one the war. How many times more troops did we have?
Thank God for number, because our army is terrible.
Kate.
August 16, 2007 at 2:44 pm
*numbers
Kate.
August 16, 2007 at 2:47 pm
Kate, not to seem rude, but I think you might be over-judging this boys ability. I’m yet to meet a child who can write well. Not to say that he won’t become a good writer, but I’m just skeptical that someone so young deserves such praise.
– John.
August 16, 2007 at 2:57 pm
Oh no, he is very good. Better than Paolini…I think he’ll be the one to take the “Child prodigy” crown. Though he’d probably not want it. But I’m amazed at his writing, it’s brilliant. I love his characters, too. They’re awesome. :P.
Kate.
August 16, 2007 at 2:59 pm
I’m off now… And Kate, if you want to go to England, that’s great for you…I don’t really care, because I don’t know you, and if i did, i could still talk to you… sorry if i sounded rude, but i don’t like it when people dis my books, so…yeah.
August 16, 2007 at 3:02 pm
Saphira -I should probably apologise as well. I came across as being rude, sorry.
And I have no problem with you liking the books; everyone has their own taste.
Kate.
August 16, 2007 at 3:24 pm
Thank you…I guess…
August 16, 2007 at 3:28 pm
Does chriss read this thread that would be cool because i am his biggest fan stop makin fun of him you cant do better!!!!!!!11!111!!!there isnt anythin rong with the bokks they are grate so just shut up or i will get angry and you dont want that!!!!11!! chriss is my hero and when i grow up im goin to be just like him with a fantasy bokk that is really origionalll like his with lots of dwarfs and elfs and orcs!!!it will be beter than kates one andi will laugh at kates one!!!
August 16, 2007 at 3:30 pm
I don’t want to offend anyone, people! Please don’t get on and read all these comments and then just start flaming me, I came here for some good debate.
Kate.
Saphira – I really am sorry.
August 16, 2007 at 3:30 pm
but please…don’t dis the army. They join by choice, and they are risking their lives…not arguing, but…
August 16, 2007 at 3:34 pm
That’s a good point. Perhaps I should have phrased it “Our army is poorly trained”. I don’t mean they are bad people, I simply mean that our army needs to be better equipped. Man for man, Australia would beat us. I think the government needs to know this, so they can train our troops so they are more likely to survive a war, rather than just die, but have us still win, just because we have more men.

Nah, I’m not angry. I;m a live debater, and I;m pretty bad at trying to convey emotions, and indeed sarcasm and other things like that, across the internet. xD. It’s a pain.

August 16, 2007 at 3:41 pm
i think kate should just overall be quiet….like she should go drink some more tea or something…..we won, you lost….get over it…..and yes, we are well equipped….we could put a 30 foot long nuclear warhead right up ur ass if we felt like it…..and please don’t like it when we do that….that would mean u are gay
August 16, 2007 at 3:42 pm
But – ah, I’m getting distracted from the point of this thread. My political views (which are probably wrong. That is REALLY not my area of expertise – at all) aren’t relevant.
I’ll try to limit my ranting to Eragon only.
Kate.
August 16, 2007 at 3:45 pm
What? – Err…Gay robot, I AM American. And I’m a girl.
I was just saying I have a problem with our troops not being trained enough. My problem with this is that not trained = die more easily. And I don;t want them to die. My motives were pure.
Anyway, I;ll try not to do that again. 😛
And I hate tea! 😛
Kate.
August 16, 2007 at 3:55 pm
You guys are getting way to distracted. I came here for a nice little debate with someone who actually likes Eragon and Eldest as well, but no one’s taken it up yet. Not for Kate’s schoolyard politics (No offense, but that’s what they sound like) and Some other guys misspelling of the word “arse”.

I agree with Kate when referring to the army, i’m not criticising the people they deserve our honour and respect above anybody else.

Can someone tell me why America uses different english to Australia and England?
My laptop is American, and it edits everything to American english so i have to use other computers for editting (lives in Australia). It is a pain.
VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER
August 16, 2007 at 4:27 pm
The books…Well. I’ll be civil. 😛
Okay, to start with – the prose. Paolini is young, so it cannot be expected that e would have a “voice” yet; “voice” is something that comes with experience. Lack of “voice” can be irritating, but not too bad. What CAN be bad, however, is when someone, whether they have “voice” of their own or not, uses, or emulates, someone else’s “voice”. Which is what I believe Paolini has done, mainly to Tolkien.
Next, is complexity. Again, this isn’t necessary for a good book. HOWEVER, it IS nice. My problem with Paolini’s work in this area is that the plot he has chosen is too clichéd and overused, there are no surprises in it. This leads to point three.
Plagiarism. Now, this is a serious accusation, so I won’t make a big deal about it. Pretty much, Paolini has taken characters, places, events and even scenes from other peoples books.
Fourth is issues with suspension of disbelief. Eragon himself, as a character, is the worst case of a Mary Sue that I have ever seen. This detracts from the readability, because I am constantly jarred out of the story by the amazing things our “hero” can do. The other characters in the stories aren’t as bad, but most of them are very simple: they all speak the same and all react to things the same way.
Most of these points are personal preference, and as an editor I’m bound to pick up on them more than most people, but they are valid none the less.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor.
August 16, 2007 at 4:29 pm
American’s have different English because when they became separate from England, they didn’t have any dictionaries, so they wrote their own. It may also have something to do with trying to be less like england, left here from way back when. I’m not too sure, that’s just one explanation I’ve heard.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor.
August 16, 2007 at 4:32 pm
That guy I was telling you about before, he has a voice. He’s only 16 too. And none of what you said applies to him. 😛
Know that I;m only saying this because I’m 23, and I used to get really annoyed when people assumed my writing as a kid was bad, just because.
And good list John. Left a few things out, but that doesn’t really matter.
Kate.
August 16, 2007 at 4:33 pm
I like the books i don’t care that they rip off star wars and lotr, it’s probably why i like the series.
My only problem is that the characters don’t seem to have fundamental flaws, for me the most interesting thing and what makes a character special is their flaws and how they deal with them and how it relates to the reader, none of the characters seem flawed.
VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER
August 16, 2007 at 4:37 pm
That’s very true. Paolini doesn’t give his character’s problems…Unless they’re cool. The scar worked as one, but then he just used it as an excuse to make him even more sue-ish.
The only truly flawed character is Murtagh, and his flaws are not well done. He is most people favourite character, no doubt thanks to the flaws.

I’m currently writing a book and the brief plot is 100 pages it’s very complex, and not the tidbit story i put on here. The first thing i did was create the universe than the character flaws in the main characters, i agree Eragon and Eldest lack complexity and real characters that exist in life. I love complexity it’s why i can’t read the first few harry potter books anymore…I have issues with the lack of complexity the cliches especially the characters (referring to Eragon and Eldest).
It’s strange i agree with the reasons why you don’t like the book yet i still like it. But those are reasons for why you don’t like it not why it is rubbish.

Before I go, I’ll say this. Eragon is popular with people like yourself because it;s good escapism. Now, obviously I don;t know if this is the case for you or not, but many intellects find it appealing simply because it’s something they can do without thinking. Well I really best be off now.

I must figure out why i like the books other than magic and the universe it exist in…coffs…lotr…coffs.
I liked Murtagh and Vanir, they both surved as antagonists to Eragon. But Vanir was ruined when he apologised to Eragon, why couldn’t the scar left by Durza twisted his mind as well as his body.
August 16, 2007 at 4:56 pm
Twisted above should be twist. John why would anybody wish you dead your points were clear and valid and not insulting, you know that may be why i like Eragon. The book is what you say it is…I must be very clear i still love the books.

K, don’t have the patience, nor time to read ALL the comments, but…..
I think that puffdaddy and mehkittah are the same person dif names. and he was just screwing around.
you all just hate me, don’t you!? k, you all get on here WAY too much, cuz’ i was gone for, what, 2 days? and there are like 100 comments!
I did guess that Murtagh was the next rider, and that he was evil. HONESTLY it wasn’t that hard to figure out. He was just…….shifty.
Vanir is a freakin retard. HE IS A JERK! how could you even WANT him to be the next rider?
\
Kate and John, welcom to the site………but please don’t swear, PLEASE. And, i wasn’t really reading a ton, where did a war come in and what was that about? This is all so interesting.
……………..ok, read portions of most of the comments, and you all have WIERD conversations. seriously.
ok, check in tomorrow!
August 17, 2007 at 5:48 am
I liked Vanir because he was a jerk, only one of the few flawed characters he resented Eragon because he was crippled and didn’t care about being a jerk, by far one of the more interesting characters, i hated it when he apologised to Eragon.
Murtagh isn’t evil, Durza is evil, Galbatorix is evil…Murtagh isn’t. He has been twisted by Galbatorix, his intentions are good, he believes he’s doing good. But most importantly what actually makes him good is that he’s been twisted and is being forced by Galbatorix, that it’s not really of his free will, his actions and such forth.
Now peoples another interesting tidbit. Hitler as we all know was evil, but look at it from his point of view, he didn’t think he was evil he thought he was doing good. Even though it was very clear that he wasn’t, most true villians actually believe they are good and are doing good when infact their actions are evil. Discuss…
VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER
August 17, 2007 at 5:52 am
I want Vanir to be the third rider so he can return to being a jerk towards Eragon…
VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER
August 17, 2007 at 8:38 am
I also preferred Vanir to Eragon. Eragon is a perfect, sue-ish child. He is THE definition of a sue, Paolini admitted that himself. I also agree with Dark lord on Murtagh. He isn’t evil; the kid’s a pawn.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor.
August 17, 2007 at 2:14 pm
I didn’t say that murtagh was totally bad, I totally agree that he is just being manipulated and used. After all, he did let Eragon go in the end of Eldest. Vanir shouldn’t be a jerk and resent Eragon because he is/was crippled, he should show compassion and sympathy, but not pity. That is waht a KIND person would do, and I was very glad when he apologized, even though it was AFTER Eragon had been transformed. 😀
Hitler was messed up, even if he THOUGHT he was doing good, he wasn’t. I mean, what kind of person tries to wipe out an entire RACE!?!? He killed his own parents. And, he was of jewish origin as well, but did we see him getting thrown in any gas chambers? I don’t think so…….! Hitler was just a FREAK 😡 And, I also have to say that many evil people, do what they do, just because they want to and are simply psychotic…..examples…….murderers, terrorists, etc. They do what they do just to cause pain and destruction for their own stupid desires.
John~ I am confused, when you say “sue-ish” and “sue” like, people would want to sue him? And, I disagree. He is far, far from perfect.
ok, check in after lunch!!! (it is becoming necessary to check that often, lest I drown in a sea of comments!! JKJK) 8)
August 17, 2007 at 2:28 pm
And, also, my views on WHY arya is giong to be the third rider…….
1) She is already very powerful in the ways of swordmanship. She could outdo Vanir anyday. She could outdo Eragon, probably, as well. So she would need little to no training in that area
2)(for all those wanting roran) She is an ELF! A human would never be able to even THINK about trying to take on Murtagh, and Galbatorix is like 10x more powerful then him! So, the only way they even have a CHANCE is if it is an elf, this coudl be vanir, but listen to my other comments as well….
3)She is more skilled at magic then Vanir, and not as pushy and rude. It would be quite easy to train her in the few magiks that she would not have learned because they are forbidden to those that aren’t riders.
4) Eragon’s Dream. Most of us have taken that dream to be Eragon and Arya sailing away, yes? In the ship, going away forever (to Alalea, most likely) and it is a male and female holding hands, SO we assume that it is Eragon and Arya, BUT in the end of the dream, Eragon sees TWO dragons circling. One, obviously, is Saphira, the other, though, would be Arya’s dragon……..!
5)If Saphira is going to mate with the green dragon, then she will be attracted to it. SO Eragon will be attracted to the Dragon’s rider (don’t ask me about complications, it has to do with their connection and stuff. It was explained near the beginning of Eldest) and Eragon can’t be attracted to a rider who is MALE!!! (namely, roran, vanir, jeod)
6)Yes, I know that whoever gets the green dragons magic will change to that color, but….I think that Arya having “emerald green magic” is a foreshadowing that she will recieve that last dragon. Many authors have their entire books (plots, beginnings, ends, conclusions, etc) figured out BEFORE they even start writing. (namely jk rowling) So, CP could have said that Arya had “emerald green magic” as a clue that she would inherit the last egg, which just HAPPENS to be EMERALD!!!!
argue with me if you want, but I really won’t change my mind, but I love to debate so please……..try to contradict me!!! 😛
August 17, 2007 at 2:49 pm
ok…….kate, you are really bothersome. I don’t know if you are EVER going to get on this site again (many people come for a while then leave and never come back) but
1) PLEASE DON’T SWEAR!!! 😡 ok, I think that swearing makes people look trashy and mean. I don’t enjoy talking to people who swear……..so please…..just don’t.
2) Stop slamming on America. I love the USA. I wouldn’t want to live ANYwhere else. I don’t know where you are in the US, but where I am it is great. The people are great. There isn’t a huge city extremely close by, yet we don’t live in the middle of nowhere. It is just perfect. And about the army, they are fine, they do their job and they do it well. Be glad we HAVE an army….
3)Maybe CP is young, but I don’t think that his characters are “flat” They have personalities. Many of the ideas in that book are very original. The entirity of it (evil ruler trying to take over the country, unlikely hero, dwarves, elves, etc) may be very similar to Lord of the Rings, but it is also very different. It is a creative and unique idea. I think that you would be hard pressed to find many other 15-19 yr olds that could write a book of that size! There is a good plot. And, while a tad boring in eldest, it has many exciting parts…… Don’t get on an Eragon FANsite and then slam the book. It makes nooo sense.
4) What is with the talk about Languages? The british just use more complicated words that make them sound like they are from a different century. They are very…..formal. I havn’t notice ANY difference in how Dark Lord talks… and since you said that you were going to use the British/Aussie language, I havn’t notice any change at all in your comments.
ok, newyz. g2g

August 17, 2007 at 3:44 pm
Australians even though they use the british language like the Americans should, instead of wanting to be different and replacing s in words with z and other ridiculous things actually speak very differently from the british. And to be very clear we don’t use stereotypical terms like crikey, if anybody i knew said that everybody would laugh at them they would never hear the end of it.
Truly evil people believe they are good and are doing good even though they are not.
Your ideas about Arya makes sense and it seems you are right, however…

VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER
August 18, 2007 at 5:49 am
Dragonrider i’m now giving an actual intelligent response to your post about arya being the next rider.
1) You say she could out do Vanir, their is absolutely no evidence of this. She beat Eragon, Vanir beat Eragon. This all before he transformed so their is no possible way to actually compare the two’s skills in swordmanship. Oromis would have known that Eragon is very talented with a sword so Vanir would most likely be one of the most talented elves for him to be chosen as Eragon’s sparing partner.
2) They are both elfs so that’s good for both of them.
3) Again their is no way to compare the two, we have seen Arya is very talented in magic far more than Eragon. We also saw that Vanir performed magic without speaking, which means he is very accomplished in magic, again moreso than Eragon. I would say Arya is more powerful but again we have seen no evidence of what Vanir is capable of. Vanir only acted like a jerk because he resented Eragon for being a cripple, he believed Eragon would be the doom of his race, how would you act? To be as good as he is with magic and with a sword shows he can easily be taught. And i’m not sure but if i remember correctly he is quite young, which would emphasise he is easily trained.
4) The dream does make it seem very likely that Arya will be the third rider.
5) Surely in the past dragons have fallen in love and both the riders have been of the same sex. I believe Eragon will be intimately close to the rider of the green dragon, arya it’ll only enhance his infatuation. If it’s a male, i’m guessing he’s not gay, it’d be a brotherly love or that of a really close best friend. The rider of the green dragon will most likely develop feelings for Eragon which supports Arya and is her strongest support for her being the rider.
6) I think her magic being emerald is irrelevent, sure it could be a subtle clue that she’s the third rider. But the magic changes to that of the dragon so it is irrelevant.
Points five and four are what give it to Arya, as i have previously posted i don’t really believe Vanir will be the third rider i believe Arya will be…
VANIR IS THE THIRD RIDER
August 18, 2007 at 3:31 pm
Dark Lord~ Very good! I am glad that I actually got a real debatable response out of that!!! I will look through the books…..again. And see if I can track down any more indications of who the third rider might be!!!
QI~YES, I agree with you, except not on the Dark Lord, I like him. John and Kate are like anti-eragon yet they are on an ERAGON fan site, that makes no sense to me at all!
Dark Lord (again)~What do you mean a list of character flaws exactly? Like, his flaws as a person (personality wise ex. full of himself, outgoing etc.)? Or his flaws as a character in a book (lack of personality and etc)? Yes, I probably could, but I still don’t think that CP did a bad job on these books. If that is what you are getting at………..
also, we don’t replace s’s with z’s! What words are you thinking of exactly. If you are thinking of words like newyz, tonz, pleez, etc those are SLANG we don’t actually use those, they are just shorter then the normal words. anyways, tons, please, and etc. so ya, what do you mean exactly???
kk, g2g
August 18, 2007 at 9:39 pm
lots of commits Roran will b the third rider. why r we changing subject so much. its weird.
August 19, 2007 at 7:20 am
I don’t think CP did a bad job, i wouldn’t read the books or be on here if i did. However to me Eragon comes off as being a little too perfect, he doesn’t seem to have flaws that define him.
Well in proper english 😉 their are words where “ise” is added at the end, but i think in American it is spelt like “ize” instead of “ise”. Not completely sure but it’s what my American laptop changes the words to after i type them. I’m pretty sure another example is “metre” and “meter,” “centre” and “center.”
August 19, 2007 at 3:47 pm
DL~ That is normal…. we do use ise AND ize, but it makes more sense to use a z. ex. realize. it is spelled with a z because that is how it is pronounced. If it had an s, then it would be realisssse. And, metre, centre, theatre. They would sounds wrong. they look wrong. E+R makes the eerr sounds, not R+E. The American language is EASIER! Well, not to learn……but to understand, i think…. ya, newyz.
Eragon does have flaws. He is overconfident………he is quite selfish at times…………he has a slight temper. He is NOT a good leader. he used to be a cripple, but the dragons saw fit to cure him of that. he is not exactly a quick learner. he doesn’t really listen…..he argues. need i say more? he is not perfect…..far from it in my eyes!
kk, g2g
August 19, 2007 at 5:38 pm
oh ya, and Dark Lord, while Meter is in our dictionary, we don’t use it very often……we use YARD. I don’t know what we call our system, but it is way easier then the metric system….
Do you have KPH (kilometers per hour) instead of MPH (miles per hour)???

Seriously don’t get me started on metric and vs any other form of measurement, metric is superior in every way and makes much more sense. Just like radian is superior than degrees, like Kelvin is superior to farenheit, metre superior to miles, in all cases it makes for more mathematical sense.
Is it because the french came up with metric system that nations like the US and England haven’t excepted it? In no way is your Imperial system easier, 10 mm in 1 cm, 100cm in 1 m, 1000 m in 1 km, how easy is metric, now you know nearly everything you really need to know. Everything is in lots on tens mostly 1000, i was taught a bit about whatever your Imperial system. I had to learn conversions from it to metric because old people still use it in Australia, people don’t really change. Imperial makes no sense, it’s jsut like they grabbed some obscure numbers and decide thet’s how they would measure everything.

I have sad news as well 😥 i dislocated my left knee cap (patella)yesterday. I prefer the sound of patella but nobody knows what it means, now my left leg will be useless until i do a lot of physiotherapy, but the problem is three years ago i dislocated my right patella. So both my legs are pretty much of no use, well not until i do a lot of physiotherapy. I can walk but not pretty much anything else. I cried and screamed the first time, but the second time i didn’t, i think mainly because i knew i was the only person who could help me. As the story goes i put it back in place myself…i can’t even walk without crutches now, well atleast not for a couple of days 😥 i wont be able to play any sport for a while 😥 for the next couple of weeks i’m stuck at home doing nothing.
August 20, 2007 at 2:17 pm

3) Australia rules.
4) Britain rules.

Yes, I AM an Anti-Eragon, but I prefer Crusader of the Light.
Now, I AM American. And I don;t mind it too much. BUT. What we’ve done to the English language is appalling. We’ve killed it. Why? So people don;t struggle as much trying to spell the words. Theatre = better than Theater. Metre = better than Meter. It LOOKS nicer … not to mention that’s the way it’s actually meant to be spelled. We’ve removed all professionalism and interest from the language … I;m sure John will agree, he’s a freaking editor.
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 2:37 pm
Oh yea.
Eragon sucks! 😛
Kate. (Hey, prove me wrong)
August 20, 2007 at 3:01 pm
Kate, I think you should just be alright quiet. you r realy begining to get on my nerve! I think you should just stop talking because you keep saying dumb things, eragorn is awasome stop saying it isnt. Give you a good reason? OK ERAGORN NEVER GETS ARYA!! THATS A GOOD REASON, BECAUSE IT’S REALISTIC!!! ERAGORN GETS RALLY UPSET BECAUSE OF THAT!!
August 20, 2007 at 3:05 pm
…Who are you?
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 3:07 pm
Ok wait, so is there some written rule that says how things are supposed to be spelled? Is it a LAW that theatre is supposed to be spelled that way? Words aren’t MEANT to be spelled any way! You can’t kill a language. As long as people get the message it DOESN”T MATTER! I really don’t care! I don’t care if Meter should or shouldn’t be spelled METRE! I REALLY DON’T CARE! I am soo done with this conversation….
And, how can you even tell the difference between meters, cm, mm, whatever. inches, feet, yards, miles. easy. What the freakin heck is a radian? So what, you have (ex) 50 radian kelvin? 50 Degrees Farenheit SOUNDS better. I am done with THIS coversation because again, it doesn’t really matter. I don’t care how you measure! All I care about is that I use the………..Imperial system. I think that it is easier. And I don’t really care what you say about it…..
I don’t care what John does or doesn’t agree with. I don’t Care that he’s an editor.
Kate, I don’t remember WHEN you swore, nor what you said, I just know that you did. And so did John. Just please DON’T
I don’t really care about Britain OR Australia, so say what you want about them.
QI Is nice. Don’t be mean to her!!!
QI~ I think that you are nice. don’t leave me alone with these evil people!
Knight of the book covered table~ DON’T LEAVE ME ALONE WITH THESE EVIL PEOPLE!!!! I WILL DIE!
Kate, if you think Eragon sucks THEN GET OFF THIS SITE!!!! You are on an Eragon FAN site, I don’t know if that means anything to you. But you shouldn’t come onto an ERAGON FAN site and then slam the book. It makes NO sense. Just like you…… 😡
Dark Lord~ I would say I am sorry, but you are on my black list, so I really am not……
August 20, 2007 at 3:15 pm
Alright, it seems I’ve missed quite a bit.
Hmm.
Alright.
A Mary Sue is a character that is perfect. THEY have the best magic, THEY get the most lovers, THEY learn things really easily, THEY are the supreme chosen one that must save the world. So, a Sue-ish person / character is a person / character that fits that description. Eragon is the biggest Sue I’ve ever come across. (Note that Mary Sue is a term used mainly by authors and similar people, hence you would not have heard it before.) The most common cause of a character becoming a Sue is “Self Insertion”, where the author makes a character and pretends that they are that character, making it difficult for them to give said character any true faults or problems. Paolini has admitted to this himself, so I need not argue further.
Any more questions? I’d be only to happy to answer.
Also, I agree with pretty much everything Kate said, though she was rather crude about it. Oh well.
– John Malcavar, Senior Editor.
August 20, 2007 at 3:19 pm
Woah, no need to get cranky little one.
Now, as for that comment you made about finding some other 15 – 19 year old who could do better, I have. is name’s David, he lives in Australia, and he’ll absolutely dominate Paolini. The reason I come hear is to debate with fans, where better to find them? Now, to begin an actual debate…
Explain to me WHY CP’s character’s DON’T suck.
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 3:34 pm
Radian is the mathematical measurement of degrees referring to angle, Kelvin is celsius but the measurement begins at absolute zero, the coldest possible measurement. Metric is superior to imperial, it was invented by scientists to be the ultimate form of measurement, and for now it is. But enough of this, i came on here to talk about Eragon.
Dragonrider why am i on your black list, all i’ve done since your last post which you were happy that i gave a well thought out response to Arya being the thrid rider was say metric superior to imperial, which it is. I said goodbye to Knight of the Book-Covered Table, i put a smiles face to cry then put lol cos i haven’t really been on here for that long. And i vented my frustration because i dislocated my knee cap. Did i miss something here?
August 20, 2007 at 3:36 pm
I think he’s just annoyed at me.
Sorry Dark Lord.
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 3:37 pm
Now that i got that out of the way…to finally post something about Eragon again, i think this forum has drifted off topic a bit too much, probably due to me as much as anybody else. What do you people think Oromis will teach Eragon in the 3rd book?
August 20, 2007 at 3:39 pm
I think Eragon will return, only to find Oromis either dead or very nearly dead (see Star Wars, Yoda). Oromis will then say something touching, like “I always believed in you” or something, then Eragon will go win Alagaesia.
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 3:40 pm
I didn’t invite you here begone! lol
August 20, 2007 at 3:42 pm
Surely CP wouldn’t make such an obvious cop out on star wars…
August 20, 2007 at 3:42 pm
😛
Sorry.
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 3:43 pm
He has so far.
Hang on, I’ll find you a link…
Kate.

I know, it’s a shame, really.

August 20, 2007 at 3:46 pm
^ That link should help guess what’s going to happen next.
Enjoy.
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 3:47 pm
Seriously Dragon Rider, I’m waiting for a response.
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 3:48 pm
Don’t worry i’ve seen all the star wars movies and i’ve been told a bit about the fiction, Darth Sidius clones and other stuff.
August 20, 2007 at 3:50 pm
Did you read the link? The similarities are, quite honestly, appalling.
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 3:58 pm
I think i posted back ages ago that Eragon copped out on star wars and lotr, both of which i like alot, and i like Eragon so no problems for me. So what’s going to happen next? Kate i await your prediction and lets really see if you can use star wars to predict what will happen, because wouldn’t that mean Murtagh will kill Galbatorix.
August 20, 2007 at 4:00 pm
I know the plot of star wars i didn’t need to read the link.
August 20, 2007 at 4:02 pm
That’s possible. Paolini said in one of his interviews that he didn’t want Eragon to kill him, because that would mean he was as bad as the emperor. This could work, and it’d be [cliche] interesting. Moreso than just having an all out battle between Galby and Eragon.
DragonRider…?
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 4:02 pm
I know the plot to star wars i didn’t need to read the link.
August 20, 2007 at 4:03 pm
Meh. Just helps to make comparisons as to just how similar they are.
Kate
August 20, 2007 at 4:05 pm
It seems i’ve posted the same post twice, how foolish of me.
He doesn’t want Eragon to kill Galbatorix because that will make him bad, but killing men on the battle field wouldn’t, i’m confused.
August 20, 2007 at 4:10 pm
If that is true what you have said about CP saying in one of his interviews i see an ethical dilema.
August 20, 2007 at 4:10 pm
Yea, that’s a problem I have with it. But then,Chris is published and I’m not, so…according to fan rules, That doesn’t matter. I’m not sure. Maybe Chris thinks killing in the battle field is okay, because it’s a war, right? But killing a man after you’ve beaten them down (which will probably happen), so they are weaponless, is bad. That mey be the logic behind this decision.
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 4:18 pm
I believe Oromis will die in the 3rd but surely he’ll have taught Eragon a lot more about magic because it seems obvious that there is still a lot Eragon doesn’t know.
August 20, 2007 at 4:19 pm
Maybe Arya could teach him. Or Vanir…That’d be cool.
Kate.
August 20, 2007 at 4:24 pm
I can’t see Galbatorix being weak and weaponless. Even after his armies are destroyed he will still be powerful even moreso than Eragon. But he won’t kill Eragon because he wants him alive because of Saphira, so maybe Eragon will be able to kill him when he’s not prepared, when he’s trying to make him join the dark side…
August 20, 2007 at 4:27 pm
I must go goodbye, i’ll be back later.
August 20, 2007 at 4:39 pm
One last post before i go, what did i do to upset you Dragonrider? I realise i upset Queen Islanzadi, looking back at my post it seems i was far more offensive than i thought or was meant to be, but it’s too late to fix that. I like you Dragonrider so i’m not going to take back whatever i said to upset you i’d just like to know what i did.
PS Metric is superior to Imperial, end of story…
August 21, 2007 at 2:16 am
lots of commits i can’t wait to rad the third book.
August 21, 2007 at 3:45 am
Heya, It’s me again..Still can’t wait for the 3rd book to come out. More power to the story-tellers out there. It’s an awesome gift. Don’t waste it. (Though I’m not sure how you’d do that)Lol. 🙂
August 21, 2007 at 11:09 pm
Has anyone thought about the possibillity of Eragon’s cousin being the Third Rider? Just curious.
August 22, 2007 at 12:31 am
i think that Roran will b the third rider. i hope he will.
August 22, 2007 at 1:56 am
Ok, I’m back, sorry for my earlier comment. It was rude and unacceptable. I was having a bad day.
Kate, just so you know, I am a girl……not a guy. I don’t know, that could have been a typo, but you said “he’s probably just mad at me” and I am a girl so it should be SHE. but…..again, sorry. 🙂
John~ Thank you, I understand now, about the sue thing.
Dark Lord~ I am sorry, you didn’t do anything, I was just, as I said, having a bad day. But, you aren’t on my black list. You seem like a very nice person. Please forget what I said up there. I am just going to start over with all of you.
ok, I admit that Eragon has very few faults which is unrealistic and untrue. Although this book(s) have faults they are still entertaining and fun to read. For me anyways. I try to look at the good rather then the bad. I do this when I watch movies as well. I ignore the mistakes and faults and look at what they did right. It is a good habit, in my
opinion. 😛
Kate and Dark Lord~ Again, sorry for my unnessacerry (sorry, spelling on that is crap) comment and rudeness. Please forget what I said. Can we just start over? You can all think what you want about the different systems/countries/languages. whatever. I know I am absolutely crazy 🙄 just please don’t be mad at me!!!
ok, on with business…
Very good thoughts on Galbatorix and Oromis. My personal views on Oromis are this….I don’t know wether he will die or not, I think that it is likely that he will though. Probably because of his strange “illness” that can’t seem to be healed…. I think that Eragon will kill Galbatorix. It has to happen. It is like an unwritten law that was put in place as soon as Eragon learned he was the “only living DragonRider” not including Galbatorix.
Yes, it is quite obvious that Eragon is very unaccomplished in his magical training, at lesat compared to Murtagh. But Murtagh is seems to be superior to Eragon in almost every way…….because of galb. dark teachings. That is something I love/hate about certain books. When the bad guy is impossibly powerful. To the point that if it were for real, the good guy could NEVER win. Not in a thousand years. I mean, that forces the good people (in this case, eragon) to find a way to become MORE powerful. He will go to the Rock of Kuthian or whatever because his “power seems to be unsufficient” And he will become like incredibly powerful and it is all just sooo impossible……… It is like…..overly-impossibel.
kk g2g now
August 22, 2007 at 11:18 am
DragonRider:
Now, I know this is delayed quite a bit, but American’s DO replace “s” with “z” all the time. You replace the suffix “s”, or “”ise” with the suffix “ize”. Incidently, “z” is to be pronounced “zed”, not “zee”.
Yes, I agree that there will be an event where Eragon gains, rather rapidly, extreme power, through a new weapon or something similar. If there ISN’T, and Eragon defeats Galby simply through natural power (a gift?), then the plot is rendered even weaker. I will bet, however, that the gaining of power will be a Dues Ex Machina (even though it is foreshadowed).
– John Malcavar, Senior editor.
August 22, 2007 at 1:58 pm
i belive that eragon will kill gal how i do not know. he might gain power that way idk. i can’t wait to read the third book. 🙂
August 23, 2007 at 3:22 am
John~ So, is the black and white horse I know as a ZEEbra actually a ZEDbra??? I think that replacing s’s with z’s is an ok thing. it makes the words look cooler….gives them PiZZaZ!!!! MWAHAHAHAHAH and what in my torturous middle school’s name does Dues Ex Machina mean?!?!?!?!?\
Eragon is going to become a shade….. hahahaha. he will go to the vault of souls and be possessed by demonic spirits that make their home there! MWAHAHAHA I am feeling in an evil mood. Do you ever just want the good guy to lose? Just want the big hero to fail, to die, to be captured and turned to the dark side? ANYTHING! well, maybe it’s strange…….but I do. Sometimes I just want the good guy to go bad, or to die, or anything……… EX. I really want Eragon to be captured by Galbatorix for reasons unexplainable even to myself….. REALLY BAD! I mean, for the stories sake, he can escape, but I want him to be captured. It would add SO much more interest!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHHAH 😀
cuz’ i’m cool like that…. 8)
August 23, 2007 at 3:43 am
I always want the good guy to fail, especially in a situation like Eragon’s, how can he possibly win without failing in something important? Victory should come at a price. Actually for a while when i first read Eldest and Trianna offered to teach Eragon about spirits i hoped he would and he’d become a Shade…hahahahaha.
Wouldn’t that be cool? But i think that is how Galbatorix gets more powerful every year, he forced Durza to teach him how to summon spirits, somehow Galby learnt how to control them. I’m sure CP said we’d learn more about the wraiths that Shades summon, i don’t believe that Galby knows where the Vault of Souls is, which i hope is on Vroengard.
August 23, 2007 at 2:54 pm
why? u guys r evil. the good guys r going to win of course. it can’t b any other way. well it can b but i don’t think it is.
August 24, 2007 at 5:59 am
Err…
Okay.
The LETTER is pronounced “zed” … that’s not how it’s pronounced in words. *sigh*. What the hell…It’s pronounced “Z-eh-br-ah”, not “Z-ee-br-a”. I bet you misspell aluminium too (“al-you-min-ee-um”, not “al-oo-min-um”).
Now. It would be very cool (but highly unlikely – Eragon is far too Sue) if he became a shade, killed galby, then turned evil. I’d enjoy that.
A “Dues Ex Machina” (You should know what this is if you’re in middle school, like you say) is when something, generally random, happens to help / save / do something good for the hero. example – “Eragon was trapped. Galby had him stuck at a corner. Then a bird flew down and pecked galby in te eye, and Eragon managed to kill him.” Now, it probably won’t be as appallingly obvious as that, but it WILL be similar, I’m sure.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor.
P.S – So very many people laugh at that aluminium mistake of yours. It really is quite funny.
August 24, 2007 at 6:02 am
Oops. The word “Misspell”, when discussing the correct pronunciation of aluminium, should be “miss-pronounce”
when saying the letter ALONE, example, in the alphabet, or when reading out loud a word’s spelling, it is “Zed”, not “Zee”. That was REALLY obvious …

August 24, 2007 at 6:06 am
Hey what’s you guys opinion on religion in books? As in, how far can/should an author take religion?
Kate.
August 24, 2007 at 6:07 am
Um. Can you be more specific?
– John Malcavar, Senior editor
August 24, 2007 at 6:13 am
Well religion is somethign that is sorta … dangerous at the moment. There’s alot of conflict about it at the moment. is it dangerous/offensive to use religion seriously in books
Kate
August 24, 2007 at 6:31 am
Um. Shouldn’t be as long as it doesn’t parody any real religion. Also, as long as the books fiction, it should be fine. I’ve had people ask that before, quite alot, actually.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor
August 24, 2007 at 12:51 pm
Books shouldn’t have religion in them. in less the books r about religion. Eragon dosn’t have real realigion in it. All the religion is made up.
August 24, 2007 at 4:24 pm
Yea, that’s what I meant (sorry, I’m used to talking to older people; I’ll make it simpler.). I mean is made up religion bad if it is in some way similar to a real religion?
Kate.
August 24, 2007 at 5:30 pm
The people on here aren’t dumb, well i’m not they can vouch for themselves, i’m sure they’re all intelligent people. Can we not talk about religion, i have many issues with religion. The most obvious of which is that it is faith, the term faith requires one to ignore all logic. Dues Ex Machina, i hope that’s not involved, every time it seems like a cop out, i’m fine with it happening in the book just not with it being important in the defeat of Galby.
August 24, 2007 at 11:01 pm
Whatever. Have your views on words and languages. As long as the message gets across, it doesn’t matter to me. I don’t care if people laugh because America doesn’t complicate things. I mean aluminium? whatever. I am not going to argue about this.
I don’t think that it is bad to have religion in books. I read books that are fiction and yet have a lot of religion in them all the time…..well. ya. Religion is a great thing and i think that having it inserted in books is a good. You don’t have to read the book if you dont’ want to.
Dark Lord~ Faith doesn’t require one to ignore all logic, . The definition of faith is Believing in that which cannot be proven. It doesn’t go against logic at all! If you feel uncomfortable answering this, don’t, but what are your many issues with religion? and why are they?
I am very intelligent. I am not an expert in other countries and their grammar and whatever all else, but I have not got even ONE A- in middle school (7th, 8th, 9th grades) and I only got 1 B in elementary school. So…..don’t question my intelligence.
Newyz. g2g
August 25, 2007 at 2:09 am
Not to start an arguement, but getting good marks in school doesn’t mean a person is intelligent (note that this is not a personal attack – who am I to say how intelligent, or no, you are?). This is a point I’ve wanted to make for some time; there is a difference between “intelligence” and knowledge. Knowledge will pass you all the exams, all the assignments, all the school stuff. “Intelligence” is different…One cannot acquire “intelligence”, one is born with it (at a set level; no-one has none, and there is no such thing as “full”). My issue with school is that it promotes knowledge (the simple knowledge of something, example 1 + 1 = 2), not “intelligence” (the understanding of something, example, WHY 1 + 1 = 2). While knowledge can be helpful, “intelligence” is far better (though, because it is not something truly changeable [though it can be reduced via violent means] it would be considered unfair and discriminatory to promote one with more “intelligence” than another, with less.) knowledge is what makes the world go ’round, purely because people can learn it.
Again, this is definitely NOT an attack against DragonRider.
Also I agree with you [DragonRider] on the religion issue, and I also am curious about Dark Lord’s feelings towards it.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor
August 25, 2007 at 5:49 am
I wasn’t questioning your intelligence, i said “i’m sure they’re all intelligent people” which would mean well what it says. At school i got A’s in any subject that i liked without even trying, i was very lazy. Maths being my favourite where i got for one whole year 100% in all my exams, that was fun. In primary i was a very bad student, well i passed every subject but didn’t do much better. I was a very intelligent person in comparison to the other peoples at my school, but marks don’t always show intelligence they show mainly knowledge.
Faith doesn’t go against logic, explain then the logic in faith?
I don’t really want to talk about religion but i’ll make it clear that i have friends a family who are religious, i am tolerent of them. Religion has a lot of good aspects about it but it also has a lot of issues that i’m not comfortable with. The main issue i have with religion is zealots and the conflicts that are caused and have been caused by religion.
August 25, 2007 at 3:31 pm
THIS IS A ERAGON FAN SITE. WE R SUPPOSE TO TALK ABOUT THE INHERITANCE SERIES. IS THAT CLEAR? Ok now that that is clear i can’t wait to read the third book.
August 25, 2007 at 8:20 pm
geez, you people can tlk alot. lol, not that i have a problem with that.
~dragonrider how do you get a elvan name? i want one!
i’ve never been here before and i started to read what was said, but there’s just WAY to much. anyone want to break down everything and point out which comments i should read? please.
August 25, 2007 at 8:23 pm
i realize it might be kinda hard. so if you can’t or don’t wanna, just say so
August 25, 2007 at 8:52 pm
John~ just a quick question. i’m not trying to be a jerk or anything but why do you always feel the need to include your first last name and senior editor at the end of each comment? it seems like your trying to come off as this big-more important than you- know it all. sry if you get upset at me. i’m just curious
Book lover~ i totally agree with your last comment. i understand if you want to tlk about other things, but this fan site is not the place for it. theories, questions, and comments about inheritance series only!
August 25, 2007 at 9:20 pm
i wouldn’t bother reading any other commits. Just skim the whole page. What r ur theriors on the third book.
August 26, 2007 at 3:07 am
I tried to steer it back on topic and somehow it turned into talking about religion. I’ll try again to return it to discussing Eragon, i know everybody has talked about who the third rider is, it’s pretty much all been said. However how do you think they will get the third egg? I believe it is hidden in Hellgrind.
August 26, 2007 at 5:02 am
Eliza Bennet –
I think that’s just a habit, I do it on everything. Need to alot for my job, and so I’d rather do it everywhere and not break the habit, as opposed to not do it in places and then one day forget where it matters.
BookLover –
This isn’t actually an Eragon fan site. It’s a discussion board, which is one of the reasons I came here, as opposed to an Eragon fan Site, as I’d just get banned from said site for not agreeing with the “fanboyz”.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor
P.S – Eliza, it really depends what your interested in. If you want mindless praise, look at the top. If you want SOME (though not nearly enough) discussion (regarding the quality of the red and blue bricks, generally), look to the bottom. If you want theories, skim from top to bottom and read all the long ones (mind that some of these are drafts for some of the participants stories). If you want angst, read from when Kate and I entered.
😛
August 26, 2007 at 5:05 am
Woah, this place open to ants-eragon’s now?
August 26, 2007 at 5:11 am
anti eragon is what i ment to say
August 26, 2007 at 5:51 am
Dark Lord –
Now, I’ve only read the books once…and then only because I’d heard they were bad…so I’m not really sure what to say regarding the location of the third egg. HOWEVER, it’s possible that it’s at Galby’s castle, and that they don’t steal it until the middle / approaching the end of the book, and that Arya is the rider, so she need only raise her dragon to an acceptable age (which didn’t take Eragon long, and if the times in the third book are as skewed as they are in the second, that shouldn’t be a problem at all), as she’s already pretty powerful.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor
August 26, 2007 at 6:28 pm
The third egg is in Gals castle. Gal has it still. I can’t wait to read the third book.
August 27, 2007 at 3:22 am
NOO! this place is NOT open to anti eragons, so leave.
August 27, 2007 at 5:29 am
Seriously what’s wrong with anti eragons, as long as they don’t come on here and rubish the book and the site i don’t see a problem.
August 27, 2007 at 6:33 am
there just annoying. have you read what john and kate have been saying? they totally hate the books and that doesnt help anybody.
August 27, 2007 at 6:39 am
ive been reading this site for a while and i like it, but john and kate make it bad. its really annoying having to isten to ‘i hate eragon’ all the time. cant they at least be nice about it?
August 27, 2007 at 6:41 am
and i dont want any more anti eragons here because then all the good people will leave and there will be no one good to talk to about eragon
August 27, 2007 at 1:36 pm
I totaly agree. WE R SUPPOSE TO LOVE ERAGON ON THIS SITE. sry had to do that. i can’t wait to read the third book.
August 27, 2007 at 1:47 pm
well you no wat? im comin in anyway. ERAGON SUX!
August 27, 2007 at 3:47 pm
Does not. Eragon is the awesomest book ever!!!!!!!!!!!
August 28, 2007 at 1:55 am
mapel drow~ you rock! tell it how it is!!! YES!
Amginea~who asked you? no one cares what you have to say about how sucky eragon is! (except Kate and John, but they are on the evil side)
The egg is in galbatorix’s castle. In Chapter three of Empire (Light and Shadow) Eragon black’s out because, while in helgrind with roran, he is attacked by the Lethr’blaka. SO it is my theory that he is captured at that point, but he will escape eventually and somehow in his daring escapade he will manage to nab the egg because he is, as john says, a “mary-sue” or whatever. I don’t know….that is what I think 😕
Eliza Bennet~ I will look up an elven name 4 u and if you come back and leave another comment then I will give it to you! I am not going to give a name to someone who is never oging to come back.
Amginea: here is a name for you! Knurlhiem…..it really fits the personality you have portrayed yourself with on this site! Don’t take any of this the wrong way……but you are really being mean. At least Kate and John go about insulting the book nicely! 😡
k done with that. I can be nice to you, but only if you be nicer to the other people on here, me included. It makes me sad when people be soo mean 😦

no they dont! kate and jon r being realy mean.
August 28, 2007 at 6:10 am
mapel drow i see your point of view and understand why you don’t want them on here. i didn’t think john and kate were being that mean but who does this Amginea think he/she/it is? If you’re just going to rubbish the book by saying it sux…well then you shouldn’t be on here, obviously you lack the intellect to discuss the maner in a civilised way and thus you offer nothing to this site, begone!
Dragonrider i have not read this third chapter of the third book Light and Shadow, could you post it on here? or have you already done that?
August 28, 2007 at 6:37 am
Yea. Coz Im a real dumbarse. this book sux, period. what i hate most about it is that poulini always preaches to me his stupid beleifs its really annoying because he keeps pushing his teenage wisdom in my face and its really stupid, okay we get it you hate god and you hate meat who cares.
August 28, 2007 at 7:36 am
See you’ve just proven my point in your reply, you lack intellect. And you’re the one who called yourself a dumb arse not me (i thought it might be sarcasm then i realised you’re just not smart enough). I don’t hate god, i have problems with religion, but if you read my posts you would realise i have nothing against god. I hate meat 😆 another example of your superior intelligence, you’ve been able to deduce i hate meat even though i haven’t posted anything about it…or maybe you have no idea. I actually love meat, so i don’t know what that says about you, besides the obvious. If you don’t like the books and you’re sick of it being pushed into your face…then what the hell are you doing on here. Maybe you should think before you do something. You offer nothing, again begone!
All you’ve posted so far is dribble, Eragon sux! This book sux! Post something that makes sense like Kate and John, their anti Eragons but their post have thought put into them and they actually discuss the book, they provide more than Eragon sux! I have no problem with anti Eragons just ones that provide nothing, so far you have provided nothing, nothing! Are you getting it.
PS. sorry to the others for going off at this Amginea, he/she/it just really pissed me off.
August 28, 2007 at 7:41 am
That is the worst lol smile i’ve ever seen (must stop laughing). I have a twisted sense of humour, don’t make fun of me 😉
August 28, 2007 at 8:24 am
i sed i hate the way poulini sticks his beleifs in his books and how he makes it look like hes rite nd were wrong if we disagree with him and i meant that he keeps making it seems like he hates meet and he hates god and he has admited that and so you cant say he doesnt.
August 28, 2007 at 8:39 am
Oh that’s what you meant, i apologise for my comment, i look like a read idiot now. Yeah when i read the book the thing i hated the most was when Eragon stopped eating meat. I just did not like that at all, blasted elves and their ways, he’s essentially an elf. I wonder if Eragon wont believe in gods or a god by the end of the third book.
August 28, 2007 at 8:42 am
i no its the most anoying thing ever because the way he rights it makes it look like not eating meat is the only good thing and that if you eat meet your bad
August 28, 2007 at 1:29 pm
Yeah there is alot of “made up” religion in the books. THey r still awesome though. I can’t wait to read the third book. ERAGON IS THE AWESOMEST BOOK EVER!
August 28, 2007 at 1:55 pm
I know the religion in the books is made up, in the second book Eragon pretty much became an elf. The elves don’t have a religion, i was asking if anybody thought by the end of the third book if Eragon would no longer believe in a god or gods?
August 28, 2007 at 11:35 pm
He will probably b neither. he will still belive the dwarfs but understad what the elves mean. hope that answers there ur question. I can’t wait to read the third.
August 29, 2007 at 11:37 am
i really can’t wait for the third book i mean eragon is the best series eva! these are the best books in the world i love them so much.
August 29, 2007 at 1:30 pm
I totaly agree. I hope it comes out soon!!!
August 29, 2007 at 2:13 pm
why do you like it book lover? like what are your favorite bits
August 29, 2007 at 2:27 pm
i reckon brom is eragons son, not morzan
August 29, 2007 at 2:33 pm
Yup. 😛 I so totally agree with you.
Kate
August 29, 2007 at 5:33 pm
I love the whole book. i can’t pick my fav. part. BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER. I will say it a billion times if i have to.
August 30, 2007 at 12:24 am
HI!
August 30, 2007 at 12:27 am
I still don’t think Brom is Eragon’s father….if anyone cares…
August 30, 2007 at 12:38 am
Unless someone can give me a good reason…
August 30, 2007 at 2:18 am
John, Kate, and Amginea(especially you)~ Stop dissing the book!!!!!!! people who like it aren’t going to LISTEN TO YOU! so stop trying to prove your point….
August 30, 2007 at 2:33 am
kk, um, lets see. There is NOTHING wrong with being a vegetarian. It is just a life-style. I am not a vegetarian, but what if I was!? would you all hate me because I “hate meat” And, paolini is not trying to prove points about religion or what you eat in his books! where did you get that idea?! And, Amginea SPELL things correctly. you sound like a 5 year old because everyother word you spell is incorrect!
and, why do you all keep saying rubbish? rubbish this, rubbish that. It’s called trash. I don’t understand “rubbish the book”? wouldn’t it sound better to say she/he/it was TRASHING the book? cuz’ that is what she/he/it is doing, trashing the book…
k, i can’t stay on for too long…but i will newyz.
On to more business like matters: I do think that Eragon will still believe in a god/gods by the end of the books, though I think that he will still respect the elves opinions. Again on the meat thing, can you really blame Eragon? I mean, think about this. If you were in his place, and your mind is connected with ALL the living things around you, the birds, the animals, even the plants and insects, you can feel what they feel. Could you feel the essence, the aura, the very LIFE of a deer and then kill it? extinguish its existance just like that after feeling its simple joy in life? And then FURTHER more, EAT IT!?!? I couldn’t. Eragon’s vegetarian lifestyle makes sense if given a little thought.
kk, g2g…..
August 30, 2007 at 2:51 am
Ok, I think that Brom could be Eragon’s dad….there are several indications in the book, but I see many reasons that indicate that there is not a trick, it is all told right there. I mean, on the Brom side of things, there is the riddle, saphira’s unwillingness to answer Eragon’s question in the end of Eldest, and just the whole situation, I mean, Selena disappears and by a series of events finds brom, they come up with a plan to hide eragon, goes to carvahall, etcetc and then goes back to morzan where she eventually dies. but in morzan’s favor, why didn’t brom just tell eragon? like right before he died….or why didn’t he, i don’t know, leave clues or somehting. A note maybe. Well….I am not sure on the whole thing.
Dark Lord, DragonRider posted it way back up at the top somewhere. May 7th, 2007. like WAY at the top, took me forever to scroll all the way up there and find it.
DragonRider, I agree with you except that I am not sure about Eragon believing in gods or whatever that was about. I havn’t given it much thought. I would also prefer that Arya didn’t become the next rider, but she probably will, it is most likely. Also, how long have you been on this site?? 😕 cuz u were like way back up at the top.
And…..I am can totally understand the vegetarian thing. Amginea, why are you making such a big deal out of this? it is not like a crisis or something. newyz. hope you all like my views.
oh ya, sorry about my first comment. it was kinda rude-sounding. Don’t hold it against me, but i really like these books and it makes me slightly mad when people trash them like that. but its all happy-making, no issues here! 😆
ok, I will check back in l8r! catcha later! 😛
August 30, 2007 at 3:43 am
my problem is that paolini makes the reader feel stupid and wrong if they dont agree with what he says and that makes hm really dum becuse he is trying to make me think what he thinks. eragon sux
August 30, 2007 at 3:46 am
and eragon IS BROMS FATHER!!!11!1
August 30, 2007 at 4:05 am
Again, I totally agree with that.
Kate
August 30, 2007 at 6:25 am
Why doesn’t Eragon feel bad when he eats plants they’re living too, or when he treads on the ground, or when he moves all those actions kill living things. Just food for thought.
Trash, rubbish they’re the same thing just different ways to say it.
I agree Brom is Eragon’s father, and Arya will be the third rider though i’d prefer it if it was Vanir.

Also, I would like to point out that, while I disagree with his / her / it’s (?) methods, I do agree with Amginea’s point.

August 31, 2007 at 10:47 pm
John and Kate~ I have taken a great liking to you over the past comments. And Kate, do I count as one of those “others” that you were talking about?! I hope so. I again, am sorry about our previous quarrels (sp?) and hope that we can just, like, start over. Ok? (that goes for Kate and John, though I had less problems with John)
Amginea~ You made yourself unwelcome on this site from the first comment you posted. No one is “losing” it isn’t a game or a race. You are just overly competitive and need to get a life. You can’t speak like a civilized and calm person. You act like a two year old. And furthermore you immitate people. That is like mimicking someone. It is just childish and stupid. You are acting stupid. I would mimick you, but that would be fighting fire with fire which never works. John and Kate arn’t “anti’s” they dislike the book for reasons mainly due to Paolini’s youth when he wrote the book and for his own beliefs. They are totally reasonable and understandable purposes for disliking the book. All the evidence you have given as to the reason for your hating the book is “eragon sux”. And, this is just really bothering me…..you keep saying “eragon is brom’s father” that is an impossibility and an absurdity. It is probably a spelling error since you seem to have plenty of them, but you should really stop posting that. I may have respected your opinions before, but I really don’t now…
Book Lover~ I don’t mind your comments about wanting the book to come out…. so please just ignore Amginea Knurlhiem. (for those who don’t know, that means Stonehead) I think that it fits his/her/its personality….
August 31, 2007 at 10:57 pm
Amginea: why are you being so mean? there really isn’t a need for it. cuz’ like we never did nething 2 u. You chose to come on here and diss the book…….so deal with the consequenses. spelling?
August 31, 2007 at 11:10 pm
John~ Sorry, I viewed your opinions wrongly. anywayz.
DragonRider~ I totally agree with your views. are you on right now? how can you tell when somone is or isn’t on? obviously this isn’t like chat…..but oh well. I think you are so right about Amginea…
Amginea~ you should listen to DragonRider she/he obviously takes life more seriosuly then you and is really smart.
Book Lover~ You do say that you want the book a lot, we read it the first couple thousand times, but hey, if that is what you want to do, more power to you!
Dark Lord~ you are really smart to…..and I am going to assume you are a guy right?
ok, sorry about the spelling errors. I am not that great at spelling but some days are better then others and today is not one of those days.
ok……….. 😆 i will get back on l8r tonight or tomorrow.
August 31, 2007 at 11:27 pm
WOW two comments in like 1 hour. i am amazed. Usually it takes like 1 day to get 1000 comments but they rarely come when I am on. That is cool. Thank you Aeth….Aieth……….how do you spell your name!?!?!? AETHELFLAID! ok, anyways, thank you for your compliment. You are nice too. and I am a girl. but now that I think about it……DragonRider is a more masculine (sp?) name. but, i am a girl. your name sounds more feminine. So, I am going to assume you are a girl, but correct me if I am wrong. ok, thats all I had to say. i will get on……..whenever I get time I guess. I am going to have a cookout in my backyard tonight. I have a firepit, an orchard (so I have trees) benches and I even have a couple wolves to make it all more realistic. jk, I have two huge dogs. They are Alaskan Malamutes. I would put a picture of them on here, but this thing won’t let me, so I can’t, but they are like huskies, but i have GIANT alaskan malamutes and so they are REALLY big. their names are Sasha and Salem.
Again……I am just going to ask……please don’t swear. Please. To anyone who isn’t taught that it is morrally or ethically ( I really don’t know) wrong, just please refrain for the sake of people who are. It has a lot to do with my religion, but I am not going to go into detail for the sake of Dark Lord, and myself, I dont’ really want to explain. Anyways.

you needa chill pill babe.
or a knock out pill.
either will do
but i SOOO recommend the knock out pill.
and if you hate the book why dont you pack your sorry a** and get out of here!!
cuz i know that these people dont wanna listen to you. cuz your just being rude and w/e the heck you are. so why cant you shut up and be nice?? oh i know why cuz u got an attidue problem that Hasta goo.
hi DragonRider!!!
P.s- i promise everyone that im not that mean. but she is annoying. and i couldnt help myself… soorrryy!

September 1, 2007 at 5:17 am
Who is DragonRider? Alaina is a girl from another site…..I told them that Amginea was being a jerk and she responded. I am DragonRider……..why would I post under Alaina’s name???
Hi Alaina!!!
but, kate, seriously…..i am not alaina……I am just DragonRider. Not Alaina. are we understood?!?!?! ok. Where did you get that idea anyway?
September 1, 2007 at 5:55 am
Aethelflaid thanks for the compliment and yes i am a guy, peoples no need to speak down to Amginea he/she/it is just less of a person than we are eventually he/she/it i think i’ll go with it. Well hopefully it will figure it out and leave.
Amginea you’ve only posted one comment of interest and that was after i went off at you, then you returned to being a complete jerk. Because of you a perfectly good comment by me was ignored and not discussed, i feel sad jks. Amginea like i said before you contribute nothing, leave!!!
Dragonrider i’d like to know your opinion on the quote of mine below.
“Why doesn’t Eragon feel bad when he eats plants they’re living too, or when he treads on the ground, or when he moves all those actions kill living things. Just food for thought.”
September 1, 2007 at 1:42 pm
I think that it is because while plants are alive, the parts that Eragon and the elves eat are not alive. Like fruit is not alive. The plants that GROW the fruit are alive, but you aren’t taking the whole plant when you eat fruits and vegetable. Just parts of it. Therefore you aren’t killing it, just harvesting it. So, it lives on and just grows more. BUT in contrast to that, when you eat an animal, you have to kill the whole thing. You can’t take its leg and let the rest of it live. (i suppose you could do that, but it would be just wrong) Or its neck and then let it live. It just doens’t work like that . SO while the plant doesn’t die when you take parts of it. An animal will, its essence dissappears. And, since Eragon had been in some way connected to the animal that he would be killing, it would be like having a little piece of you torn away. An empty space in you mind where there once was life.
Now, about the walking. He can’t do anything about walking. He has to walk through places that will definitely have insects. He can’t just not go anywhere. I am sure that if there were a way to get around (without saphira or an other flying animal) without stepping on the bugs in the grass and ground, the elves would do it. But, there are SO many bugs that it would definitely have less impact on Eragon then an animal, I think.
so, was that enough of an opinion!?!? 😆 thank you for taking interest in my opinions on such subjects! It makes me feel a little more appreciated.
kk g2g for now.
September 1, 2007 at 2:01 pm
Um…”Aye” is a word that means agreement. So, “aye, you are DragonRider” means that yes, you ARE one of the “others” I was talking about. I wasn’t saying that was you…Why did you think that?
Anyway.
Kate
September 1, 2007 at 3:17 pm
That’s a pretty good explanation, i know theirs nothing he can do to not kill things by moving but ut seems to have totally escaped his mind, the consequences of his actions and all.
Harvesting is a bad term most things that are harvested that are not trees are killed, like sugar cane for example, but in the book the plants would survive so that is irrelevant.
Dragonrider you have good well thought out opinions, i like those kinds of opinions.
I have discovered the third chapter of the third book, from that it looks like Eragon and co. will get captured, if that is the case i can’t see Roran being the third rider at all. Although i don’t seem him being the third rider anyway, but why didn’t Eragon sense the Ra’zac when they’re fully grown, i can’t remember the fully grown versions name.
September 1, 2007 at 3:32 pm
Yay i just pulled off the best checkmate, most of the game i pinned the oppositions queen with my queen, he couldn’t move his queen without mine taking his, and he couldn’t move any of the pieces around it or i’d take his queen. Eventually he threatened my queen and his was free to move. But it was too late i pinned his king into the opposite corner with my rook, i moved my knight and checked the king. My queen was open to be taken by his bishop but the king was checked so he couldn’t take it. Next turn i took the bishop with my queen and checkmate!!!!!!!!!!
I know what you’re thinking why post that on here how weird am i, forget that i’m telling everyone i can, it was a brilliant game i’m telling everybody!!!!
September 1, 2007 at 6:08 pm
Hey, iv’e bin readin everybodies theories on who the third dragon rider is. I can see why people think that it might be Arya or Vanir. And i thought this was a site for people who like Eragon so who are the random people on here slagging it off.
September 1, 2007 at 6:37 pm
The people who are slagging it off need to get out of here.
…even if im not apart of this site really. but i like it cause everyone talks about Eragon. ha not something else. like if you visit Rumors about the third and final book of the Inheritance Trilogy debunked page we are way off topic.
..Ive never played chess. and DR is like the smartest person haha. She always has good opininions and logical infromation to support them.

September 2, 2007 at 10:37 am
I think that Brom is Eragons father because why would Brom be living so close to Eragon if it was not so that he could keep an eye on him. Also Brom and Eragons dragons both share the same name, also the riddle, which was a bit strange seems to fit.
September 2, 2007 at 3:28 pm

as soon as i get the third book i am going to read it non stop! i hope it is a long book. they r better when they r long! 8)

September 3, 2007 at 3:59 pm
Kate if you say you’re smarter because your adults then i would have to say that assumption would prove that you have the view of most adults…nothing shocking their besides the fact that age has nothing to do with intelligence which older people never seem to understand and are then shocked that someone much younger than them is more intelligent than them.
He he he i will be an adult in a month, well in the eyes of the law, which by your reasoning will make me the third most intelligent person on here, but of course that makes no sense at all doesn’t it?

Hey people!
Kate~ sorry, misunderstanding. I would have understood if you had said “aye, you are, DragonRider” with more comments. I assumed that because the comment was right after Alaina’s and because of the lack of commas (and my misunderstanding of the word “aye) that you were accusing her of being me! Does that make sense? 😀 (John, that is a big smiley)
KNIGHT OF THE BOOK-COVERED TABLE~ YOU HAVE RETURNED! I AM OVERCOME WITH JOY AT THE SITE OF YOU NAME AND COMMENTS!!!! YAY~ btw, I missed your funny comments while you were gone!
I think that AGE has absolutely nothing to do with how smart or intelligent or wise (though wisdom usually does come with age) you are. Thanx to the people who have stood up for me. It makes me feel like someone enjoys my presence (sp?) on this site. So again, thank you.
Dark Lord~ Thank you. I try to give strong opinions with reasons, pros, cons, etc. I try to see both sides of the story, but sometimes I am a little over-competitive.
Ebrithill~ Wow, I haven’t seen/talked to you for a long time on this site! Long time no see! 😆 haha. welcome back! And, I have been fine, but some people (the newer ones) sometimes place bogus comments on the site.
Kate~ Again, I just have to stress (concerning who’s is “smartest”….it doesn’t really matter how old you are, it depends on the experiences you’ve had and the schooling you’ve gone through and the amount of life you have lived…. So you have had more education, you were born first, and, obviously, you have had more experience. So what? That is just part of life. No one on here is SMARTEST! We are all smart in different ways. We all have strengths and weaknesses. So, just drop it. It doesn’t matter. soo. newyz.
kk, i will try to check in every two days or so…..been busy lately.
Be Happy-Making…. 😆

Dragonrider enough with that stupid lol smiley, i can’t look at it without laughing. And it’s very rare to find anybody who can look and comment on something without bias or a reduced amount as is possible.
Knight of the Book-Covered Table i hope this means you’re back, yay!!

September 5, 2007 at 5:05 am
Kate exactly what then did this mean;
“I think you’ll ind that John is the smartest person on here. Then me.
Come on, we’re adults.
Kate”
We’re on a computer if you say doughnut you actually spell it, and the point of this excercise was?
Parramatta 68 – 22 Broncos worst defeat ever…
September 5, 2007 at 7:38 am
I meant what I said. DragonRider said it well; We have more experience, education and all that stuff. I spent 6 years at college and 4 at outsider experience.
And yes, it’s spelt doughnut…again, I just wanted to see how reasonable everyone’s claims were.
Dark Lord – If you think that adults think they are great because they’re adults, you either know alot of stupid adults or you have the same view as ALMOST every child I know.
Kate
September 5, 2007 at 12:49 pm
Kate you have no idea.
I do know a lot of stupid adults, i know a lot of stupid people, and i don’t think adults think they are great because they are adults. I think they think they are smarter than kids one because they don’t truely understand what intelligence is (this applies to you) and two because they underestimate youth. You don’t seem to understand intelligence and are confusing it with knowledge, you also seem to think that knowledge makes you smart.
I’ll give you an example you seem to think that us knowing how doughnut is spelt can gauge our intelligence, when all it really does is show we don’t know that piece of knowledge. Below are definitions that i got from google for intelligence and smart i already knew this but it seems you didn’t. I hope this enlightens you because they are not my words but are those of definition. It seems i have a far greater understanding of what intelligence is than you and are capable of comprehending it, by learning this you shall become more intelligent. You will notice neither have anything to do with knowledge. Bask in my glory 😆
Smart is showing mental alertness and calculation and resourcefulness.
Intelligence is a general mental capability that involves the ability to reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, comprehend ideas and language, and learn.
PS. Kate know what you’re talking about before you comment on something or be prepared to be shut down.

Oh also i have a saying “people are stupid” i don’t care if anybody here disagrees. But my sister didn’t believe me she continuously gave me reasons why they aren’t. I have successfully converted her to my outlook on life, she now tells people that “people are stupid.” Everyday i see and hear stupidity and nobody else seems to realise, how did i convert her to this strange outlook on life, i listed a series of events and asked her to explain why. Her eventual answer was “people are stupid” don’t worry i am not exempt from this. I am stupid as is everybody else on here, don’t take offense, we all do stupid things admitting this and accepting this is has allowed me to fully understand and comprehend many things. I’m interested on some of your views on this, you will not change my mind.
Parramatta 68 – 22 Broncos worst defeat ever…
September 5, 2007 at 9:37 pm
Dark Lord- I agree with both commits. i’m not afraid to admit that i am stupid. Age dosen’t matter rly. it does sometimes but usely it dosen’t.
So just wondering how many people r going to still get on here after the third book comes out?
September 5, 2007 at 11:25 pm
I’ll still come on here after the third book.

Book Lover i think you’re smarter than you give yourself credit, understanding ones faults is truely an intelligent thing.
My favourite words in the english alphabet…
Reckoning
Chaos
Revelation
Destiny
Paradox
Enigma
Interesting enough i am writing a series called Lemuria and the name of each of the books is those words in that order, i also like retribution and another word that isn’t appropriate on this site.

September 6, 2007 at 1:07 am
i’m alone. 8^(
September 6, 2007 at 1:19 am
Favourite? I have been taught FAVORITE! hmmm, I think that the whole conversation on the intelligence, and being smart is kind of pointless… it doesn’t really matter does it? I will still come on here after the third book comes out. Who else will I discuss with? Who knows how long I will be on this site!? I am not leaving any time soon though.
Dark Lord~ 😆 makes you laugh???…………. 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆
And, out of those words you like, I like…..Chaos, Revelation, and Destiny. Some words I love just cuz’ they sound cool are….. Impale, discombobulated , fortune, exodus, peril, and zodiac, and this word is interesting…..oikology. If someone can tell me what that means WITHOUT looking it up somewhere I will give you a few dollars.
kk, check back on…..eventually.
September 6, 2007 at 3:41 am
No it doesn’t matter who’s smarter though tbh Kate is looking a right fool now, thinking she’s more intelligent than others when she doesn’t even understand what intelligence is. Favourite is how it is spelt in proper english 😉 just like colour. I have issues with many things hypocracy, oversensitivity and ignorance rating the highest. I just couldn’t read Kate saying she’s smarter because she’s an adult because of all the experiences and knowledge that come from being an adult when none of that has anything to do with intelligence. I just had to relieve her of her ignorance and hopefully enlighten her and others.
The words you liked are the ones i like the least out of those, i like Enigma because it’s Enigma. Just the idea of what Paradox is can confuse even the greatest minds well more a situation in which it occurs, i love it. Paradox being my all time favourite, and Reckoning well it’s the first word that i ever really thought, wow! (not world of warcraft 😉 jks)
Another cool word is Genesis, shame it’s from the bible, back in the day i got offered 100 dollars to read the bible. Like when i was twelve or thirteen, Genesis i liked, Exodus was also good, kept reading i was going to get it done easy then it all went wrong…Numbers, seriously whhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? (long and dramatic for emphasis). Numbers is the most boring piece of fiction i’ve ever read.
Oikology never heard of that, so if i know what it means i get money, without looking it up you say. Well i might have the answer for that…be back in a sec just have to look something up on google 😉

September 6, 2007 at 7:36 am
*sigh*
Yet again you mis-understand me. At no point did I claim that I was more intelligent than the rest of the people here for those reasons, though those are the only reasons that I can really use over the internet.
And I only said that because ignorance annoys me also, and whoever’s comment about DragonRider being the smartest irritated me because, well, it isn’t true.
Kate

“I meant what I said. DragonRider said it well; We have more experience, education and all that stuff. I spent 6 years at college and 4 at outsider experience.”
Kate”
Kate do you not realise what you have said in these two posts, are you really that thick? You said you’re smarter more intelligent because you’re an adult, then you explained that it’s because of your experiences, education being at college. None of which have anything to do with what intelligence or what being smart is, i gave you clear definitions that give your view of why you are more intelligent as wrong. I don’t really care who’s the most intelligent or smart, i just felt that your ignorance of what intelligence is couldn’t go without comment and your assumption that you are smarter. If i mis-understood maybe you should make your post clearer.
“What proof do you want, child?”
A lame insult barely worth a mention except for the fact it makes you seem like an even more ignorant and arrogant “superior” adult, why are adults so stupid when it comes to youth. You are now on my list of stupid adults, don’t worry nearly every adult i’ve met is on that list. The two who are not on that list that stick out are those who seem to understand me, one is my father who understands that he may be older but we are of equal intellect though he acts dumb to purposefully piss me off. And my science teacher who thought i could be anything i wanted but my problem was i’m just too damn lazy. All other adults i manipulate at will.
PS. I’m at Uni so i think that makes it pretty clear on what intelligence i’m at according to your understanding of it which is wrong. And in the top two percentile. Kate all you’ve done is make yourself look less intelligent than most who post on here, actually i wasn’t going to make this post then you called me a child at the end in a derogatory way i just had to. And that *sigh* ticked me off a little.

September 6, 2007 at 7:38 pm
ok….well. Oikology means “the study of HOUSE-KEEPING” no joke. I find that absolutely hilarious…
to anyone who tried…here is your reward: $$$$$$$$$$$$ MONEY!!!!
Dark Lord~ Sorry if the words I like are at the bottom of your “favourite list” (I am spelling that word like that just for you, I hope you know) But, my favorite word above them all is…….. DISCOMBOBULATED!
Kate….you seem quite discombobulated right now.
people…calm down. take deep breaths. We (more accurately, you) are discussing intelligence. Honestly, no adult is going to ADMIT that they have less intelligence then a colleague (sp?) much less someone who is YOUNGER! They have way too much pride to just admit that sometimes they are wrong. SO, calm down, no need to go for eachother’s throats.
on the good side of this……my family got a cat…it is adorable…
on the bad side, I am sick… 😥
Dark Lord~ Do you honestly believe that the Bible is fiction? I love the book of Genesis, it is really interesting. btw, I have read the bible with NO bribes (as in, I just did it) and it is not that hard. For 100$ I would have been finished in 2-3 weeks. (the bible is hard to read and slow in some spots)
ok, I am proud of myself. I just have to say that over the course of this week I have finished 5 books. I started and finished one on tuesday, started and finished one on wednsday, finished one on thursday(started on monday), and finished one….on monday, and also one on sat. SO, I am quite proud of myself. for all you skeptical smart-allacs, they WERE all large chapter books. 😀 😀 😀 😀
kk, check in later. byebye
September 6, 2007 at 9:24 pm
weird subjects very weird. oh well can’t wait to read the third book.
Dark lord- the bible is not fiction!!!
September 7, 2007 at 3:32 am
This arguement is going no-where, and yes, I did phrase all that terribly. Sorry, I’m just going through a…never mind.
It’s too off-topic anyway, so lets get back to Eragon, alright?
I don’t think adults are more intelligent than children. Often they are, but intelligence really can’t be gaged. I know plenty of intelligent children and stupid adults. It’s attitude regarding that which I use as an indicator.
Does anyone else think that Vanir will die in the third book?
Kate
September 7, 2007 at 4:17 am
Besides, both those times I was talking about knowledge, being smart. Not intelligence.
But again, hard times, bitchy attitude, lets leave it behind us.
Kate
September 7, 2007 at 4:29 am
If the argument hadn’t stopped i was going to put an end to it today. So thankyou for ending it.
Vanir will sacrifice himself to save Eragon.
Genesis was really cool, i was going to read the bible anyway then my uncle gave me extra incentive (he’s a zealot he believes gays should be put in public and stoned, crazy). I really liked Revelations has anybody here heard of the Left Behind series.
I said it was fiction just to have a jab at the religious people, but yes i do believe it to be fiction.
September 7, 2007 at 4:36 am
In retropsect Kate i know what you were trying to say but you phrased it so it came out entirely different.
Parramatta 68 – 22 Broncos worst defeat ever…
September 7, 2007 at 6:11 am
I agree on Vanir dying to save Eragon, though Murtagh may as well.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor
September 7, 2007 at 7:30 pm
I have heard of the left behind series….know what’s scary? You may know this, but for those who don’t….Left Behind is based off the book of revelations in the Bible. A priest (or some other religious figure) wrote it and some of the things IN that book are actually happening.
Dark Lord~ Ok, you say it is fiction…who wrote it? I want to know the author bcuz’ they deserve an award. do you know ANYONE who could write over a thousand pages of history in that text with *pages* of geneology and hundreds of cities??? Not to mention all the other things in there… How do you explain the prophecies in the bible that have actually come true? Do you believe God/Jesus are fiction? I don’t understand how ANYONE could think that a book like the BIBLE is fiction. btw, no one cares about Parramatta and the Broncos and how it was the “worst defeat ever”
I think that Vanir will hardly be in the third one, if at all. He is not a key character and has no personality except that he is arrogant and rude. If Paolini even THINKS about making an arrogant jerk like Vanir the third rider, I will track him down and put him in his place. 😡 and Vanir hardly thinks Eragon worthy of being a Rider, why would he give up his life to save Eragon’s? here’s a thought, HE WOULDN”T. I mean, murtagh, Eragon’s previous best friend wouldn’t die for the “greater good” honestly, I wouldn’t either. If I were murtagh, I would be doing everything I could to stop the rebellion. having heard the King’s plan, I would be fighting for it. I don’t think that Murtagh would die for Eragon either. but, i am getting side-tracked. Vanir wouldn’t give his life up for Eragon, and I think you are all making Vanir out to be more of a character then he actually is. His only part in the 2nd book was swordfighting Eragon and being a total freak about it. He couldn’t even be nice, not until eragon was healed. He was prejudiced against Eragon because he was human, and a cripple. He wasn’t kind about it, he didn’t even bother to apolagize until eragon was superior to him. does that sound like someone who would die for eragon, or anyone for that matter. He is hardly a character… I don’t know why anyone would like him…

September 7, 2007 at 10:09 pm
I agree with DR on the Vanire thing. The bible has many authors. There were many who wrote it.
September 8, 2007 at 1:38 am
The bible was written by many people over the ages, I don’t believe the bible or in god, that’s why i think it’s fiction. I’m not having a go at you, though you seem to be having a go at me it’s just what i believe i’m happy to let you believe what you like. Many people believe in god and are better for it, i don’t have a problem with your or anybody’s beliefs.
Vanir hated Eragon because he felt Eragon had doomed everybody. Would you act nice to somebody who you felt would be responsible for the end of the world. When he realised Eragon would not doom them he apologised and i think he feels he owes Eragon his life because of how he treated him so he will die for him.
I post the comment about parramatta because i support that team, it was a great day and i want to remember it all the time, i don’t care if anybody is interested or cares that’s not why i post it.
Parramatta 68 – 22 Broncos worst defeat ever…
September 8, 2007 at 1:46 am
I’ll confess that my reasons for thinking Vanir will die for Eragon are that Eragon is a complete Mary Sue, and so all the good characters end up liking him / her, and Vanir will *feel really bad* about what he did and will try to make things right.
Kate
Ps. Dark Lord – you say enigma / aenigma is one of your favourite words (aenigma being the older, correct spelling)? Spelt backwards it’s “Amginea”
Just thought that was interesting.
September 8, 2007 at 7:23 am
Interesting i’ve never seen Enigma spelt as aenigma.
Dragonrider do you consider scientology to be fiction?

or discombobulated!
September 9, 2007 at 7:23 pm
btw when the book says eragon will never again set foot in alagaesia once he’s left, does that mean he’s never coming back, or can he just like fly over instead without actually walking on the ground?
I was just wondering about that.
Any comments?
September 10, 2007 at 1:38 am
eragon will leave FOREVER!!! he won’t come back it will b like LOTR with the elves and hobbits leaving for the elves place!!!
September 10, 2007 at 3:48 am
haha, good comparison.
Cryptosporidium is an illness you get from swimming pools (usually)
Discombobulated means confused
Dark Lord~ I have never even heard of Parmatta or whatever, I am a BYU fan and a UTE….hater I guess. Ok, believe what you want…..I knew that multiple people wrote it…you didn’t need to tell me that. I meant if it was fiction who wrote it, but you think that it was written in the same fasion that it was supposedly REALLY written, you just hink that its fake? ok, newyz. that is confusing. I believe it is real. was, whatever.
vanir doesn’t have that good of a “soul” or “heart”…. 😕 he isn’t that good. He wouldn’t do that. He is a jerk, I could be kind to someone who I believed had doomed me, because I wouldn’t actually believe that. If I were in vanir’s place I would not look at eragon and think “there is the person who doomed us all” I would try to sympathize and be glad that we had even the slightest hope of winning. Because a crippled rider is better then no rider at all. Vanir is just a bad guy all around no matter what his motives for being that way were…and I think that is the way Paolini intended it to be.
scientology? as in the study of science? theories such as evolution, the big bang, gravity, all that stuff? is that what you mean? I believe science is a true thing, but I don’t believe in the “big bang” I believe in evolution TO an extent. I don’t believe we evolved from monkeys for example. (for those few people who believe that the earth is flat, yes they are out there) the earth is round….duh!!! so, if I didn’t get what you meant, please explain to me… and just out of curiousity, who does believe in the big bang theory? or if you have some other theory….? I believe in the bible and I believe that the earth was made as it says so… sorry if I am offending anyone by placing my beleifs and opinions on here!
and I wasn’t trying to take a blow to your beliefs…sorry if it seemed that way.
Dark Lord: out of curiousity, if you don’t believe in God, do you believe in an afterlife? the Devil? angels? do you believe in miracles, or do you call it coincidence?
ok, g2g!!
September 10, 2007 at 5:16 am
Parramatta is a footy team in Australia (rugby league).
With the bible i believe that when it was written they believed it to be the trueth to be history, however i do not believe it is. And it cannot be proven that is why religion is a faith.
So you would be nice to the antichrist? A saviour in the eyes of all but not to those who believe the bible and know better.
Scientology the study of science 😆 No it is a religion based on the writings of a science fiction writer.
I believe in the big bang it makes sense if you get into all the fancy science, just out of curiosity do you blame god, man or the devil for the countless millions of humans that die in africa and asia just because the don’t have clean water?
I do believe in an afterlife i also believe it is the principle in which religion is successful, the promise of a life after death. I don’t believe in angels or the devil, though i do believe in ghosts and spirits.
Parramatta 68 – 22 Broncos worst defeat ever…
September 10, 2007 at 1:34 pm
Well, Parramatta isn’t a team, it’s a place. It’s near Sydney, Penrith, Faulconbridge, Springwood etc….Although it’s also a team.
Hmm.
God could have used evolution or the big bang.
Evolution is not “grew from monkeys”. It says that we share a common ancestor. Again, God could easily have used evolution. The really simple argument is that if he didn’t, things wouldn’t have turned out the same way that they are now.
Vanir will die to save eragon.
Brom is eragon’s father.
September 10, 2007 at 1:37 pm
Man is responsible for the preventable deaths in Asia, Africa, etc.
Sin.
September 10, 2007 at 4:07 pm
Yes Parramatta is part of western Sydney so it’s a place and a team, a bloody good one too, and if they didn’t choke in the finals they’d be a great team. Penrith proud winners of the wooden spoon…
I agree man is responsible for the deaths in Asia and Africa, it doesn’t really take a great deal of time and money to provide clean water. Evolution i think is pretty clear that it’s real and exists. I hate it when people say humans evolved from monkeys, we didn’t.
Enough off topic talk from me, why will Eragon leave Alagaesia forever?

September 12, 2007 at 3:51 am
I love lotr, I am an expert on it!!! well, usually… anyways.
I think that, while we may be similar to primates, humans are an entirely different species, they have never evoloved from anything, they just are. Ohter animals have evolved, but not humans…
Yes, Eragon will leave alagaesia forever…no doubts there.
where did being nice to the antichrist (btw, there is a person, can’t remember his name, but he believes that he is christ right now, wierd…) come into the picture?! I believe in the bible, so why would I be nice to the antichrist? I wouldn’t….but seriously, where did that come into play?
God could have used evolution (for people) or the big bang, but i don’t think so…
I blame man and the circumstances for all the problems the the middle east has. But, not so much man as the circumstances. I don’t know about other countries, but America is doing a lot to help out over there, it is just difficult to completely fix a country(s) that have been having problems for 100’s of years. disease, starvation, it mostly has to do with the place that they live and the poverty that they live in. The conditions have been bad for a long time and so it can’t be fixed just like that…
I respect all your opinions on religion and the bible and all else, but religion is a soft spot for many people and we should probably stear clear of it…just my opinion…
kk, g2g 4 now.

I was saying Vanir would view Eragon as an antichrist figure.

Can we plz get off religion? no more on it? plz? oh well hope the third book comes out soon!!
September 13, 2007 at 3:19 am
OOOH, ok Dark Lord, I get it, but…..hmmm, ok, lemme think for a sec….I suppose that is one way to look at it, interesting comparison. I don’t think that it is exactly….accurate though. Eragon is not opposing the elves beliefs, on the contrary, he is trying to LEARN their ways and become, in a sense, one of them. Vanir though, he looks at Eragon and has no hope simply because he is human and because he is a cripple. Am I making sense to you? I am making sense to myself, but sometimes getting the message across is kinda hard. Anyways. Vanir looks at eragon and hates him for his race and his disabilities. He doesn’t have ANY hope until he sees that Eragon has potential and the he can do it. It takes a transformation to show him that. (regardless of the fact that eragon wouldn’t have lasted 3 seconds against murtagh in his amazing battle against him in the end of Eldest….
ok, eragon discussion of the….night.
I know what this poem means, but I want to hear your opinions…so what are your opinions on this poem from Eldest.
While two may share two,
And one of two is certainly one,
One may be two.
Well? what say ye, people of the Eragon Discussion Site?!
alright, not many people on right now, so I am gonna head off!
Think well of me good citizens…
8) haha, luv it!
September 13, 2007 at 3:49 am
Book Lover i’m done with it, Dragonrider you finally get the comaprison, it’s not entirely accurate but it works.
Isn’t that the poem that that strange bird i think Bladgen sang, i think it means Brom is Eragon’s father.
Parramatta 68 – 22 Broncos worst defeat ever…
September 13, 2007 at 5:55 pm
That’s quite a good theory.
As for the poem, does everyone think it means the father theory?
I mean it’s a good match up but still, it would give it a bit more mystery to have a couple of interesting meanings, rather than just one.
Also, while we’re more or less on subject, what do you think the new dragon will be called? If it actually hatches.
September 13, 2007 at 5:56 pm
😀 B) 🙂
September 14, 2007 at 2:00 am
i know i say this alot but to bad BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER!!!!! That poem as i belive it MIGHT MIGHT mean that morzan is Eragons father! i have said why i think that like two times!! i’ll post it tomorrow if i have more time
September 14, 2007 at 3:44 pm
I never specified about the father.
i mean something completely different for the theory.
September 15, 2007 at 2:33 am
HI!! Is anyone on???
September 15, 2007 at 2:45 am
I take that as a no…
September 15, 2007 at 3:58 am
how about now?
September 15, 2007 at 4:12 am
hi again!
September 15, 2007 at 1:43 pm
Ariana- what did u mean then?
September 16, 2007 at 11:44 am
ok,
for the poem/ riddle, everyone has come up with or agreed on the same theory:
Two fathers.
I was just wondering whether anyone thought it could mean anything else.
You keep saying that Brom can’t be Eragons father, so why not? What then is your idea for what this riddle means?
While two may share two
And one of two is certainly one
One may be two
To me the father theory fits quite well, but to you it obviously doesn’t. I respect your opinon, i’m just interested to know why you are so opposed to this theory, and what then is your own?
September 16, 2007 at 6:07 pm
i think it means that they have the same parents. And 1 of them followed 1 of the parents.
Proving Brom is not Eragon’s father. But it may be Morzan like said in the book on page 652
that is my theory on it. it fits. and it helps prove that Brom is not Eragons father!!!!!
September 16, 2007 at 6:22 pm
hi i havent been on this site in a long time. has there been any new info on the release date of the third book?
~vrael

September 17, 2007 at 4:19 am
Ya, kk, good theories on the Riddle, I have posted what I think before and I really don’t have time to post it agian tonight, but maybe later.
Book Lover~ Your theory SORT of fits, but it is like a puzzle piece that looks similar, but doens’t quite have the shape. I think you are just improvising because you really don’t want Brom to be eragon’s father, though I can’t imagine why! But, I respect your opinion and will not challenge it!
lovethebooks~ heyhey, long time no talk! nope, no new infor really….
The new dragon could be called ANYTHIGN and it really isn’t relevant to the story, there isn’t any clue as to what it may be and so therefore, is impossible to guess, especially since it will most likely just be a made up word that no one has ever even thought of…well except of course the person who thought of it, paolini!
Dark Lord~ Yes, I saw the comparison, and it is interesting, though i don’t totally agree with it.
kk, g2g for now
stay icy
September 17, 2007 at 3:25 pm
the thid dragorn wil be caled ’empire ‘
September 17, 2007 at 9:25 pm
NO IT WON’T!!! that MIGHT b the name of the book!!! besides the dragons a boy and who would name a dragon empire?
and the theory DOES fit!! BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER!! why does everyone think that?
sry i’m in a violent mood!! mwahahahahahahahahahhahahaha!! oh yeah BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER!!
September 18, 2007 at 2:21 am
the dragons name is vrasisn
September 18, 2007 at 3:19 am

September 18, 2007 at 4:30 am
Amginea~ Darn it, I thought you had left… 😥 and the BOOK will be called Empire, who would name a DRAGON EMPIRE!?!?!?! Sorry, I am being mean, but your comments are rude and uncalled for…
Book Lover~ I am in a HYPER mood….aahhhaaa! MWAHAHAHAHHAHA HIPPIES RULE THE EARTH!!!! Who decided that hippies were to be called hippies newyz?
gdawg~ Where did you come up with that? no, obviously no one was there… besides, people this is a BLOG poeple arn’t on at the same time, like even if they were, you would have to completely reload the page to get any of their comments! IT IS NOT LIKE A CHAT ROOM!!! ok, got that out of my system.

haha i was just pushing random letters, thanks for that dragon rider… i wonder what the green dragons name is…
September 19, 2007 at 12:51 pm
Does anyone here think that Eragon may end up with Nasuada as opposed to Arya?
Kate
September 19, 2007 at 9:15 pm
gdawg- ok
kate- i don’t think so.
September 20, 2007 at 3:03 am
hi every one sorry i havent been on in forever. with school starting, new school and all and our computer in our house dosent work so i have to use the computer in the barn, but i cant go in there between 3p.m. and 7p.m. because it is so loud. the 9th was my birthday i am 13 now, i am not a tweeny like my dad calls them (preteen). If i have to wait any longer for the third book i am going to scream!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 20, 2007 at 3:35 am
I suppose Eragon and Nasuada COULD end up together, but it just doesn’t seem…probable. Possible though. I take Nasuada to be more…I don’t know. I think that it is possible that Murtagh may end up with her…
gdawg~ thank you (?) 😕 i am glad to be of service to anyone who wants it…
I LOVE to be hyper!!!
ok, this just happened and it is wierd, has neone on here ever had a time when you just like panicked? for no good reason, all of a sudden you just tighten up and get total fight or flight instinct going…? ya, well that happens to me ALL the time, I just panic and don’t want any body to find me so I will run away and go hide somewhere for a few minutes before I realize that I am being so stupid!!! it is totally wierd and un-needed…
gdawg~ oh….. (on name) interesting….lemme try!!! zantsier hmmm, possible? yes. Probable? no.
where did Dark Lord go??? he disapperateed!!!!! kk, i am kinda discombobulated (confused) right now, so I am going to save you all from my endless babbling!
ps hippies just popped into my head and so i put it down!!!
pps does anyone like the song Every Time we Touch by Cascada??? I LOVE THAT SONG! ok, anyways. I am going on babbling randomly again!! I MUST SPARE YOU MY ANNOYINGNESS!
” cuz every time we touch I feel the static, and every time we kiss I reach for the sky….”

September 20, 2007 at 4:07 pm
I’ve been busy, had very little chance to use the internet and very little usage left. Dragonrider you panic all the time and like to be hyper, that reminds me of my sister. Who is opposite to me in her personality in every possible way.
September 20, 2007 at 9:22 pm
hi I’m sorry I haven’t been on
Thank you dr fore replying vie misted all of you vary much
September 20, 2007 at 9:32 pm
dark lord don’t be mean 2 dr she is my best friend, on this site
September 21, 2007 at 12:10 am
yay randomness off subject though, oh well its not like any one talks about Eragon any more!! just wondering but does any one else think that brom is NOT eragons father? i don’t want to b the only one.
September 21, 2007 at 4:07 am
THANK you ebrithill….I have not seen you on here if FOREVER!!! It is great that you are coming back again!!!
Dark Lord~ Am I supposed to take that offensively? besides, opposites attract, my brother and I have really similar personalities and we fight all the time…my other brother and I get along great but we are like opposites. I don’t panic, I have NEVER got on this site and felt panicky, maybe it seems that way to you…but it isn’t in reality. Yes, I am often hyper, but hyperness is a desirable quality, as long as it doesn’t get out of control, in my opinion…!And i am excelent at keeping it in check……most of the time. But that wouldn’t show on this, cuz’ when I get THAT hyper and am bouncing off the walls and could in no possible way type anything on this. I do occasionaly have spaz attacks when emailing my friends though! BUT THOSE are totally different, they are like a split second of extreme hyperness and now I have talked about being hyper and etc. for a very very long time and I don’t remember when I last put a period so you can start breathing……now! ok, did you all die reading that really long sentance that was practically a paragraph!?!?!? HOPE NOT!
besides dark lord, you should be nice to me. I was concerned for you becaue you hadn’t been on in a long time and I was curious as to where you had gotten off to! I missed your prescence on the site and that should please you at least a teensy little bit! I AM offended now (jk) 😀 😆 does that still make you laugh??? 😆 😆 😆
BL~ that is cuz’ there is NO more to talk about…we have discussed everything from “will galbatorix die?” to “will eragon leave alagaesia” to “How often does murtagh cut his hair?” jkjkjkjk….newyz you get the point!
ok, g2g
pip pip, cheerio, biscets, tea, and all that… [said in english accent]
September 21, 2007 at 1:10 pm
I don’t know how anybody could think i was insulting anyone, the panic comment came from this…
“ok, this just happened and it is wierd, has neone on here ever had a time when you just like panicked? for no good reason, all of a sudden you just tighten up and get total fight or flight instinct going…? ya, well that happens to me ALL the time, I just panic and don’t want any body to find me so I will run away and go hide somewhere for a few minutes before I realize that I am being so stupid!!! it is totally wierd and un-needed…”
My sister does that but it doesn’t result in her hiding just her acting really wierd. Stupid lol smile still makes me laugh.
Having re-read the second book another time i have to commend CP for the chapter The Obliterator the way he described pain was something that i know to be correct from experience. Though Eragon’s fear of the pain wasn’t enough, it was still excellent.

Hi, i’m writing this from my computer solutions class! hope i don’t get in trouble!! and yeah we have discussed everything!!
September 22, 2007 at 2:03 am
thanks DR i see that u r pissing sum one off like u did with me
September 22, 2007 at 2:57 am
lol
September 22, 2007 at 3:05 am
???? ok, confusion-making
Dark Lord~ I only said that cuz’ it had just happened a moment before. hmmm hmmm,
Am I annoying anyone to the point of anger? am I angering someone? I am confused by ebrithill’s comment. like I did with you? what?
ok, I am confused…. I had best stop trying to think about it before I hurt myself! jkjkj
haha 😆 😆 😆 I love them, just cuz’ they make you LAUGH! Laughter is a great and wonderful thing, the world would be a much better place if everyone would just laugh!!!!
AAAAH my dad and brothers are watching him play “unreal tournament” or something like that and it is WAY loud and driving me absolutely MAD!!!!!!
Yes, we have discussed everything and it is all maddeningly unhelpful as to what may happen in the next book…
ok, g2g bye

October 7, 2007 at 10:22 am
I guess I’ll try to stimulate some more conversation … Who is everyone’s favourite and least favourite characters? I know this has been asked, but you know….
Also, what are everyone’s favourite and least favourite events? That’s a little different.
Kate
October 7, 2007 at 8:07 pm
kate- my fav charecters r Brom and Eragon! I wish that Brom didn’t die he is AWESOME!!!! 🙂
lovethebooks- u haven’t been on in awhile! 🙂 glad ur back!
Glad that other people r on here know!
October 8, 2007 at 5:59 am
Favourite character is Brom, but he’s dead so i’ll go with Saphira.
Least favourite are the Twins, back stabbing cowards.
Favourite event when Eragon killed Durza and its consequences.
Least favourite event Brom’s and Ajihad’s deaths.
October 8, 2007 at 2:14 pm
My favourite event would have to be Vanir’s constant beating of Eragon, purely because it showed that Eragon is human. Up ’till that point, Eragon had been pretty much unbeaten.
Least favourite event would be Eragon’s Dues ex Machina healing by the elves. Sorry if I seem like a sadist, I’m just used to looking at literacy this way.
Favourite character is Murtagh, though I hate the way Paolini seems to pronounce it. It should really be pronounced mur – tah, not mur – tag. I like him because he is the only real flawed character.
Least favourite character is Eragon. Sorry, he’s just really badly a Sue.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor.
October 8, 2007 at 4:23 pm
ok my favotite character would have to be……..saphire cause she just has an awsome personality!!!
idk i know this seems mean but i would say my least favorite character is eragon, just because he’s so perfect, and you dont really get to see his flaws
my favorite event would be the war
and i dont really have a least favorite event,i just dont like it when its a boring part.or when its not packed with action
~vrael
October 8, 2007 at 11:39 pm
yes i luv the wars! violences is awesome!
what is with the people hating Eragon? yeah he does sound stuck up at the end of Eldest but he is awesome!! sry but i don’t think u should hate the main charter in a book. i hope eragon is awesomer in the the book!
October 9, 2007 at 12:25 am
hey everyone, when is the third book coming out? soz i know its been answered b4 but cant find out where.
October 9, 2007 at 3:37 pm
HOW CAn u all hate eragon?11!?!/ he is the colest hero!!11! he has LAODS of flaws. like when vanir beets him!!1 if he was PURFECT, tat wouldnt of hapend! i HATE murtagh, he betrayed ergaon! i lieked it when eragon beet murtagh!!!!!!!!!
October 9, 2007 at 3:41 pm
sorry that looks realy dumb i couldnt see the screan when i wrote it sorry
October 9, 2007 at 9:24 pm
ocean- NO ONE KNOW WHEN THE BOOK IS COMING OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
Eragon is cool and so is Murtaugh! he was forced to betray!! Gal made him and its not his fault he didn’t want to die!!!
October 10, 2007 at 1:51 am
okay thanks book lover. darn.. i was hoping to hear that it was like next month lol. but anyway when it comes out im going to buy it straight away… even if it costs heaps of money. is everyone here american? cos im from australia..not that i have anything against americans :D. oh and eragon and murtagh are both cool, but murtagh is probably better, cos john and kate are right, eragon does seem a bit too perfect to be realistic, but you guys are right too…anyway have a good day.
ocean
October 10, 2007 at 1:54 am
oh and i think theres like a huge time difference between here over there cos its 10:53 in the morning and up there it says 1:51am up there. k thats all
ocean
October 10, 2007 at 2:33 pm
Yay a fellow aussie, agreed on Murtagh bring better than Eragon.
October 10, 2007 at 2:34 pm
How did it type bring instead of being?
October 10, 2007 at 9:18 pm
dark lord- it been awhile ssince u were on here! lol 🙂
I’m American!!!!!!! 🙂
October 10, 2007 at 9:33 pm
my favorite character is arya. she is so strong and tries her best not to hurt eragon when she rejects him. eragon has a flaw. a BIG one. i hope Galby dosen’t find out that he loves her. my least favorite part of any of the two books is when brom and eragon’s uncle dies.
October 10, 2007 at 9:45 pm
it is 4:44 at my time zone. why is it always messed up
8(
October 10, 2007 at 9:50 pm
CAN U IMAGINE WHAT GALBY WOULD DO 2 ARYA IF HE FOUND OUT THAT ERAGON LOVED HER. HE WOULD USE HER 2 GET 2 ERAGON. IT WOULD BE HORRIBLE! I JUST KNOW THAT E WOULD GO CRAZY
October 10, 2007 at 9:52 pm
SO HOW LONG DO U THINK IT WILL TAKE FOR THE BOOK GETS SOLD OUT AFTER IT COMES OUT. IT MIGHT BE LIKE WHEN THE X-BOX 360 CAME OUT
October 10, 2007 at 9:56 pm
i think that the book stores and the teachers are going to be very happy those days. i am going to order it at a website ’cause the stores will be impossible
October 10, 2007 at 9:59 pm
C U Later peoples i have homework 2 do and i m a little behind. its nothing that 9 ARTICLES and colored pencils can’t fix 😦
October 11, 2007 at 12:14 pm
The only thing i wish could happen in the book is if cp made eragon have more flaws. cause it just makes it look to easy for eragon. idk.oh and the clock has about a 5 hour difference
~vrael
October 11, 2007 at 12:15 pm
cause its 7:14 here
October 12, 2007 at 1:54 am
why does every one notice and post something on the time? it rly weird!!
October 13, 2007 at 10:04 am
Hi! i’m not american either just so you know. I’m english. i’ts also 10:00 here but i don’t know what thats going to come up as.
My favourite characters would probably be Saphira and Nasuada, because they both just have such strong characters and personalities.
October 13, 2007 at 10:05 am
well my screen clock seems to be about right anyway, so thats good.
October 14, 2007 at 12:57 am
that cause the time is english!! so it is on time for u! 😀

You believe that love is a major flaw?
– John Malcavar, Senior editor.
October 17, 2007 at 2:47 am
if u put it that way then it doesn’t sound right. CORRECTION: eragon has a crush that may in fact cause him a lot of sufering if galby finds out. not a flaw but a crush.
October 17, 2007 at 2:50 am
crushes hurt that’s why they’re called crushes. it crushes you. i feel kinda sorry for eragon. because arya won’t like him in return.
October 17, 2007 at 10:47 am
I wouldn’t feel sorry for Eragon, Paolini won’t be able to leave him without Arya, being a Mary Sue and all. The only thing that could happen as an alternative would be if Eragon and Nasuada got together.
Kate
October 17, 2007 at 10:52 am
That was poorly phrased. Eragon is the Mary Sue, not Paolini.
Kate
October 17, 2007 at 8:58 pm
Eragon will mostlikly end up with Arya. or there could be a totaly new charecter that he falls for. cp could come back with something like that. He is an awesome writer and they r awesome books. 🙂

JUMPING LIKE A BROTHER
I AM SO BLACK
I LAUGH AT U WHITE BOYZ
LOL LOL LOL LOL
October 18, 2007 at 12:02 pm
hey guys my brother just filled me in he said america is about 14-16 hours behind australia in time, so i think it is around . Dark lord good to know theres another aussie 🙂 Queen islanzadi I dont speak spanish but my brother does. hes not fluent but pretty close. anyway with arya and eragon i think that they wont end up together in the end, even though its possible. I think that because it would really be going a bit too far in making eragon perfect, because to face facts he does seem too perfect already. i think even if arya became the rider, he wouldnt be able to end up with her. because of an argument he had with saphira in eldest. she pointed out it was impossible for anything to happen between him and arya for lots of reasons, such as the different race, status(royalty) and age. Eragon came up with reasons why the first two didnt matter, but not the age difference. (please correct me if im wrong; i havent read them in a while because i lent them to a friend) As they said, there is just no way to overcome it, and it just wouldnt work, because she is just so much older than him.
anyway thats just my humble opinion 😀
so do you guys have any theories/arguments on how it could work between arya and eragon?
ocean
p.s oh and i agree it most likely will be arya who will be the 3rd rider but it would be much cooler if Roran was 😀
October 18, 2007 at 12:04 pm
hey i just realised that when i did a smily face like this 🙂 it came up with an angry smily. lol so just so you know i meant a smily face like : )
October 18, 2007 at 12:08 pm
oh and i forgot to finish my first comment; when it said i think it is around . … i meant i think it is around 7 in the morning.
but then again it says 12:04 in my last comment so oh well.

Aye, debate is brilliant. Glad to see that the conversation is once more back in full force, typically offtrack and lacking of purpose.
It’s brilliant. 🙂
Here’s a question ~ What do yu all think Paolini would write after he finishes Eragon? Blind stabs are fine in answering this, it’s all about fun. (Just assume that Random House allows him to continue publishing with them.)

i dunno myb some mo good fantsy books?
October 22, 2007 at 9:07 pm
How about Northern Lights (Golden Compass)? Anyone read that?
October 23, 2007 at 12:19 am
hmmm I think that Paolini would probably stick to the fantasy which is not necassarily a good thing. I mean honestly, there are only so many good and unique stories that can come out of fantasy. (though it is one of my favorite genres along with…a lot of others) Even more so from one author. He will have the same stories in his head and his ‘flavor’ of writing isnt changing…..ok, hold on. i don’t know what I am saying. PLEASE IGNORE ME!!!! (really, please don’t. I feel excluded when i’m ignored) 😥
Ariana~ no. are they good? what are they about.
nothing has changed on this site since i left and came back. cept some of the peoples are dif.
October 23, 2007 at 1:40 am
cp will probably write other books. hopefully fiction.
October 23, 2007 at 7:33 pm
ok, i’m sorry you guys, but i’m not sure if i want to be angry or laugh at some of your conversations. for one, DragonRider, these people are giving there opinions here and so are you, noone can be sure what EXACTLY is going to happen in book three yet, except C.P. himself. yelling at e/o is absolutly pointless. noone’s opinion can be wrong. (i’m refering to your argument about Brom being Eragon’s father) you bring up some REALLY interesting points and made me think alot, but arguing because someone has a different view? come on people!
P.S. Roran as the king, i like it!
October 23, 2007 at 9:10 pm
sure lets go with that. soooo brom is not eragons father. just a random question who do u guys/gals think Brom luved? i though it might have been an elf? cause that would explain why brom was a friend of queen izlasadi.( sry can’t spell) like yay what do u think?
October 23, 2007 at 10:53 pm
i have been here since the begining and i speak spanish. tambien lo escribo. which means i can also write it. cp has 2 write new books. not 2 put any pressure but he is 2 good a wriiter 2 just write 1 trilogy. he has his whole life ahead of him and with the harry potter thing all over he will be the new super published author.

BROM IS NOT ERAGONS FATHER!!!!!! i can’t wait for the third book. it is going to b awesome!! then i can laugh at most everyone cause i will be write and u will b wrong. lol i wouldn’t do that. ok maybe i would but thats beside the point
October 28, 2007 at 2:23 am
What do you mean there are only so many good fantasy stories that can be told? Part of the allure of fantasy is that it’s essentially boundless; it’s held back only by it’s author’s imagination.
– John Malcavar, Senior editor
October 28, 2007 at 2:18 pm
Well, in my opinion, cp will only be able to write a few good fantasy books after the inheritance because his imagination is definitely shy of “boundless” He got many of his ideas FOR the inheritance trilogy from other sources. “lotr, star wars, etc” and so i don’t personally believe he will be able to write many more books after that. besides, his writing style is good, but a little slow. IT is kind of hard to get into his books. Books like that don’t usually get too much attention. if he wants people to like his books, he needs to pick up the pace. Eldest was one of the slowest books i have ever read. it took me almost a week to finish it and there were parts of it that were just like “oh my gosh get ON WITH IT”
i am sorry if you don’t like my opinion but that is just what i think.
October 28, 2007 at 3:51 pm
Yeah Eldest did seem to go on forever, seriously i kept thinking why does this need to be this long, but like all good things it seems to get better each time i experience it so alls well that ends well. Fantasy is the the best because it’s bound by imagination, hopefully CP will write more good fantasy books because i’m sure he can he just needs to be a little more original and i think he’s got it.
October 29, 2007 at 9:14 pm
i like totaly agree with all of those commits. Eldest did take a long time to read. some things seemed to go on and on and on. and CP did take alot of things from other books. i still luv the books though.
October 30, 2007 at 1:07 am
it took 4ever 4 me 2 read eldest. oooh! has anyone read the bartimaes trilogy? i think they are good books. it is about a djinni named bartimaeus and his adventures with his master nathaniel, aka john mandrake. the 1st book explains the 2 names. n e way it shows multiple points of view of both the djinni and nathaniel. it is one of those leaves you at the edge of your seat book. and they have some funny parts. u c, bart is no angel. he is very, well i can’t think of a word right now but he, no i just can’t describe him in a few words but lets just say that 4 a 5 thousand year old spirit he hasn’t lost his vigor. i love bunnies!

YES I HAVE READ THE BARTIMAEUS TRILOGY AND IT IS WONDERFULLY AMAZING! (I don’t really like what happens to Nate in book three, and Kittie is mean, I don’t like her at all)
ok….you guys. The books are called the Inheritance TRILOGY!!! And, for those who don’t know, a TRILOGY IS A SET OF 3 BOOKS!!! There will not be a fourth one and if there IS then it won’t be a part of the Inheritance trilogy, it will be a different series/book/whatever. It may come out sept…28th? anyways. It could, it is very likely. But there won’t be a fourth one.
has anyone read the dragon series by Chris D’Lacey? for anyone who has, you know that the third one has a dissatisfactory ending but there is a FOURTH ONE! So I am absolutely excited, but it doens’t come out until march/april.. 😥 \
another book i want to read really bad… Extras! by scott westerfeld part of the uglies trilogy,well, not part of the trilogy, different characters, same setting. THAT is what MAY happen with the other books. the trilogy will probably end with eragon going away etc etc whatever. and then IF there is fourth book it will be TOTALLY different cahracters or just roran or whatever, but it will be totally different and just take place in Alagaesia.
the fourth won’t be part of galbatorix’s reign and all. it will be very different. ok. im done now. g2g!!!
November 3, 2007 at 4:42 pm
Dragonrider have a look at the link, it was meant to be a trilogy but it’s now whatever you call a four book series.
November 3, 2007 at 6:08 pm
a series… i will look.
November 4, 2007 at 2:46 pm
hm that is interesting, but also slightly irritating, it is one more book that I have to buy!
November 4, 2007 at 9:29 pm
yes it is a series now. cp HAD planed on it being a trilogy but had to make it into a series.

it isn’t a chat, its a blog. that means u post ur comment and wait to see if people will respond, but it isn’t really fast. it is like a glorified email or a really slow and crappy chat. take your pick, either way, u can join. there is no law saying who can or can’t, if we don’t like you then there is really nothing we can do about it.
he is calling it the inheritance cycle? that is so wierd. it sounds wierd, it looks wierd. it isn’t even a cycle! a cycle is where something repeats over and over again! i should think that the riders were only exterminated (almost) once and galb. is probably the first really bad king theyve had. newyz, no matter. if he had to make it inot a series cuz the characters weren’t being given their fair share of book space, thats ok by me. 😆

Yes, I agree. Australia doesn’t get anywhere near the credit it deserves.
Anyway, that has been established.
If Paolini didn’t write such slow prose then the whole cycle would probably fit into one (reasonably) sized book.

What is the name of the 3 book?
November 11, 2007 at 9:41 am
sorry i havn’t answered sooner.
Northern Lights (Golden Compass) is the first book of a trilogy by Phillip Pullman.
It is set in an alternate reality/ parallell world, and has a science fiction theme. The first chapter is a bit hard to grasp but after that it is a very good book.
November 11, 2007 at 8:21 pm
what is going to be the cover of the forth book becasue it is killling me I realy want to know is it going to an other dragon in an egg becasue sapira and one on the other dragons mate? I know this is realy off topic but did anyone like the first movie it was horrable I thought. anyways I don’t think that arya is going to get the third dragon I think that it will be roran and the froth is going to be arya’s but I could be rong.

Ariana: My parents won’t let me read that book because it is written by an Aethiast (sp?) that is actively trying to stop people believing in Christ/God and I have heard that the third book is not very good. (he puts his aethiast beliefs in it) So, ya thats my opinion.
Sam: Who knows what will be on the cover of the fourth book?! He probably hasn’t even started writing it yet!!! btw, you need to work on your spelling, no offense or anything. I didn’t really like the movie as a portrayal of the book, but as a MOVIE it was ok, if a little choppy and (if you havn’t read the book) confusing. I really don’t understand how all of you can think that Roran will be the third rider. I mean, Arya is the perfect character for it. I don’t know, for all we know, it could be an evil dragon/rider. We really don’t know! anyways….

I need someone to answer this:
First: When Solembum tells Eragon that in the future he has to go to the Vault of Souls and speak his name to the open, does he refairs to Eragon’s TRUE name? If he needs his true name, who do you think will rebel this to Eragon? and if he doesn’t needs his true name, do you think the vault of Souls will “tell” him which is his name and that this name will give Eragon power?
Also, don’t you think Katrina may be pregnant? and that the sword maker, Rhunon, may make a sword for Eragon?
Talking about the last egg, I don’t THINK it will hatch for Arya because dragons hatched for young people and she’s 70. (I know elves have long lives).
May your swords stay sharp!
Ela.
November 13, 2007 at 3:34 am
Ela Elf Friend: In order of your questions…
1) I would assume that he would need his true name to open the Vault of Souls because only a true name holds power, the other names are just substitues.
2)I think that Brom revealed Eragon’s true name to him in the first book right before he died, or perhaps Oromis or Islanzadi will tell him.
3)No, I think that souls that will strengthen ERagon are in the Vault of Souls.
4)Katrina may indeed be pregnant, but there is no way to know for sure unless CP tells us.
5)Rhunon swore off making weapons. I think that Eragon will FIND his weapon as solembum says. He may find it with that elf family that has the elven riders swords which may be the “roots” of the menoa tree (relatives of the elf who became the menoa tree)
6)Arya is very young by elf standards. Just because the eggs usually hatch for their rider when they are young doesn’t necessarily mean that they have to. The dragon inside the egg KNOWS who its rider is and it will “wait forever if it has to” no matter wether the rider is 2, 20, or 88!(or older if it is an elf) There are plenty of examples of riders who didn’t recieve their dragon until they were older by human standards.

November 13, 2007 at 3:41 am
I agree with Dragonrider. I think that she/he has good ideas.
Has anyone heard anything new about the inheritance trilogy?
I think that morzan could probably be eragon’s father like it says, but i’m open to new ideas. there are plenty of reasons why brom could be i suppose, but why would cp put that morzan was if he isn’t?
i don’t know. k well. I guess that that’s it! PLEASE WRITE BACK!
November 13, 2007 at 4:17 am
Hey what’s up? I think that Eragon maight be the next king of alageasa. or maybe roran. I want roran to be the next rider cuz then he and eragon could help eachother, but that might be too…close. like they are related and everything so…
I think that eragon might ask solembum for more information. or something. I think that Eragon might get captured by galby. what do you guys think? of course he would escape…perhaps after being tortured! i love to see the good guy get beat. i don’t know, you can tell me i’m wierd but its the truth.
November 13, 2007 at 9:14 am
Aye, by his standards and methods Chris DOES need the room, however, most writers who deserve the title could write the books in one whilst retaining all the important details.

November 13, 2007 at 5:33 pm
It’s true that there is a backround theme of religious beliefs in the book, so it’s fair enough that your parents don’t want you to read it if it goes against your beliefs. No the second and third books are not that good, but i only spoke about about the first one.
The right spelling is “Atheist”.
Also has anyone thought about hoe the third dragon egg is going to be obtained? I think it was mentioned that it was heavily gaurded.

Knight of the Book-Covered Table good to see that you’re back.
You know now with the series being four books it rules out one of the reasons why Roran can’t be the third rider, now there is more than enough time for him to be trained. Never was a fan of Arya being the third rider so now i’m going to convince myself that it will be Roran.
It’s interesting that everybody seems to think that the next ruler of Alagaësia will be a king, i always thought it would be Roran because the people of Carvahall are decendents of the first king and he is their leader. But now that i think he’s the third rider why couldn’t the next ruler be a queen?
November 22, 2007 at 4:02 pm
*satisfied* thought so, book lover!
i just found out yesterday about the last-book-split……i’m soooo ecxited (sp?) !!

roran has to rule
or, mebbe roran CAN’T rule, being a rider and all, so after he and Katrina marry,(which they will) SHE rules Alagasia!!!!
(I SERIOUSLY DOUBT my theories, because i think arya is gonna be the new rider, so i think roran will be free to rule WITH Katrina, but it’s fun to imagine!)

November 23, 2007 at 5:11 am
This is what i belive…………………………………………………………..
So, without further ado, let’s jump right into the thick of things:
Who will ride the Green dragon?
Everyone’s biggest question. First, will it be good or evil? That the green dragon and his rider will be on the good side is expected; if the green dragon were evil, the Varden wouldn’t stand a chance. There are several candidates for the third rider, so here’s the list, in order from least likely to most likely:
Orik
The least likely candidate I’ve seen proposed to be the rider of the green dragon. People say he should be the last rider because then there would be the human Murtagh, the “elf” Eragon, and then the dwarf Orik. Supporting this theory is Orik’s apparent lack of fear when it comes to flying and the presence of Saphira herself.
However, there is significant evidence against the theory, namely the fact that dwarves were not included in the spell that links the dragons to elves and humans, which is what allows human and elf riders to exist. You could say that just as humans were added to the spell, dwarves could be, as well. And while that is certainly possible, you must look at the likelihood of it actually happening. First of all, what cause would there be to add dwarves to the spell in the first place? No reason immediately presents itself. Along with this, why would the dwarves wish to be added to the spell? A vast majority of them have no interest in even the slightest contact with dragons, and they (or at least a few of them) are aware that the elves and humans are on the decline because of their connection to the dragons, so why would the dwarves want to be connected and thus possibly seal their own fate of declining?
Therefore, Orik will most likely not be the rider of the green dragon.
Elva
Only slightly more likely than Orik for the simple reason that she’s human, and thus it’s currently possible for her to become a rider. Evidence for her comes first in the form of the dragon-mark Saphira placed on her forehead, and second from Eragon’s blessing, which should bring her to do great things in her life.
However, even in her present, magically enhanced state, she is quite simply too young to be a rider, much less a useful one. Sure, maybe she could use her magic to make herself old enough, but you must keep in mind Eragon’s promise to Angela: that he would remove the blessing/curse that he placed over her. And once he removes the magic from her, she will once again be an infant child, and that would mean that she will have no contact with the dragon egg.
So maybe, if there are more dragon eggs in the future, Elva will become a rider later in life. But it’s incredibly unlikely that she will be the rider the green dragon.
A character that has yet to be introduced
It’s always possible that CP could introduce a new character in book three and have that character be the rider of the green dragon. However, this is highly unlikely because both of our present riders of the new generation, Eragon and Murtagh, were introduced in the first book and had already received significant character development by the time they were riders. If a new character were to become the rider of the green dragon with substantially less development than the other candidates… I’m sure that many of us would be less than satisfied.
So, it’s unlikely that any newly introduced character will be the rider of the green dragon.
Roran
Now we reach the group of four characters who are the most likely to become the rider of the green dragon. The main evidence people suggest for him is that, as Murtagh and Eragon apparently have the blood of a rider in them, Roran, who they claim also has the blood of a rider in him, should be one as well. This is wrong, however, as Roran is only related to Morzan (the rider he is supposedly getting blood from) because of Selena’s marriage to Morzan, and therefore does not have any blood relation to the man.
Counting against Roran is first the fact that he is human and second the fact that he is male. More on why being male counts against him will come later, but here is a good place to address why being a human is bad for his chances of being the rider of the green dragon. Now, Eragon spent about four months training with Brom and about ten months training with Oromis, and even after all that time and training, Murtagh was still able to beat him, with apparent ease. For Roran to be effective in battle, he would likely have to train for even longer that, and that’s an amount of time that the Varden just doesn’t have in this war. It’s likely that the Empire could win the war in that amount of time.
So, it’s possible but not probable that Roran will be the rider of the green dragon.
Nasuada
The third most likely choice for the rider of the green dragon. Nasuada is likely for several reasons: first, she’s female. Presently every rider that’s alive is male, a rather unbalanced situation. That makes the market for a female rider that much more open. Second, she’s the leader of the Varden, and being in such an important position, she’d likely have access to the egg, once stolen, before all members of the Varden aside from those who do the actual stealing. A third point some people bring up is that she could be related to Eragon and Murtagh (highly unlikely, borderline impossible—more on that in a moment), and because they are both riders, she should be as well.
The main argument against Nasuada is the simple fact that she’s human, as is the case with Roran above. But along with that, it must be considered that Nasuada commands the Varden’s armies. The Varden cannot afford for their army to be without a commander for such a length of time.
Now, to address why she cannot be related to Murtagh or Eragon: if she’s related to them, it’s obviously through Selena, as we know her father was Ajihad. However, it must be considered that, first of all, Nasuada and Murtagh are approximately the same age. Yes, I know that twins are possible, but how does a woman manage to have two children by two different fathers growing in her womb at the same time? Answer: it’s impossible. There’s more evidence, but after that explanation there’s really no need to elaborate. Nasuada is not at all related to Eragon and Murtagh.
So, it’s possible but not probable that Nasuada will be the rider of the green dragon.
Vanir
Vanir is likely for the same reason that Nasuada is unlikely: he is an elf. The fact that he is an elf means that he is already trained in the ways of magic, and that means that, were he to become the rider of the green dragon, he would need significantly less training than any human candidate.
Against Vanir is the fact that he is male. Not that this last dragon is sexist, but as Saphira has told Eragon, whoever she or Eragon loves will affect the feelings of the other. So if Saphira falls in love with the green dragon (which is very likely—more on that later), her love for the green dragon would cause Eragon to develop feelings towards the green dragon. However, because a human can’t have feelings of that sort for a dragon, his emotions would be directed towards someone more accessible: the green dragon’s rider. It does seem likely that Eragon will develop a relationship with someone in the third book, and even more likely that that someone will be the green rider, and that he will have a child with that partner, for that reason the third rider is likely to be female.
So, it’s possible that Vanir will be the rider of the green dragon.
Arya
Arya is the most likely candidate to become the rider of the green dragon. First, there is the fact that she is an elf, and a strong and talented elf at that. From what we’ve seen of her skills both with magic and with the sword, she would require very little training to be useful in battle, merely enough time for the green dragon to become mature enough to fight well in battle, which would be as soon as the green dragon learned to breathe fire, around six months after hatching. Along with that, Arya is female, and not just that but Eragon’s love interest. If Saphira were to fall in love with and mate with the green dragon, that would change Arya’s feelings for Eragon and the two of them would fall in love, as well. Third, two of the most often mentioned facts about Arya are her eye and magic color: emerald green. While eye color certainly has nothing to do with becoming a dragon rider, all of the riders we’ve seen so far in the trilogy have possessed magic the color of his dragon. While there is no evidence that this is always true, it can be interpreted as foreshadowing to her upcoming relation to the green dragon.
The main piece of evidence against Arya is that people claim she is too old. However, there is no evidence that there is a set age limit for becoming a rider, so such a point is meaningless.
So, it is highly likely that Arya will be the rider of the green dragon.
The Weapon Under the Menoa Tree
Ah, Solembum’s words. “When the time comes and you need a weapon, look under the roots of the Menoa tree. But what will this weapon be?
Some say that Eragon has already received his weapon: his transformation at the Agaeti Blodhren. They say that he was under the Menoa tree when he was transformed, and because of this, the transformation was his weapon.
However, this is likely not the case for the simple reason that it does not match up with Solembum’s words. First, he must be looking for this weapon, and at that time he certainly was not attempting to find a weapon, he was just watching the ceremony. And along with this, the weapon may have been under the Menoa tree, but it was not under the roots of the Menoa tree, which Solembum specified as criteria for this weapon. So, his transformation likely was not the weapon.
No, it’s much more likely that the weapon will be just that: an actual, physical weapon. Say, a sword or, more specifically, Brom’s sword. Remember, it’s said that Brom lost his sword. Seems like an odd place to lose it, though, under a huge tree far from where the fighting during the Fall (the time when he most likely lost his sword) took place. But then, that’s why we must look someplace else: in this case, the dictionary.
Look at the definition for, “root.” In my dictionary, the #3 definition is the word, “origin.” Therefore, instead of looking under the physical roots themselves, Eragon must look to the origins of the Menoa tree: two old elven families, both of which are in possession of the swords of old riders that they salvaged from the wreckage of the battles of the Fall. One elven family will have Brom’s sword, which they will gladly give to Eragon when he comes to see them. As for the other elven family with a sword… They’ll give it the third rider, whose green dragon will match the sword in their possession.
The Vault of Souls, its Location and its Contents
Once again, it’s time to look at what Solembum has told Eragon. “Then, when all seems lost and your power is insufficient, go to the rock of Kuthian and speak your name to open the Vault of Souls.”
Where is the Vault of Souls, first of all? Some say that it is on Doru Areaba, the great city of the riders. Others say that it is the Star Sapphire of Tronjheim. However, there is one location that seems much more likely: Helgrind.
Now, if you examine the description of Helgrind, you’ll notice that it looks strikingly similar to a rock formation in New Mexico known as Ship Rock. If you switch the words around a bit, you get… Rock of Ship. Looks a bit like the Rock of Kuthain, doesn’t it? The other reasons for Helgrind to be the likely location of the Rock of Kuthain become clear later, in the discussion of the contents of the Vault of Souls.
So, then we move onto the likely contents of the Vault of Souls. Sounds pretty basic, doesn’t it? It’s a vault… containing souls. But for what purpose, and from where? Remember when Eragon was fighting Murtagh? He discovers that Murtagh’s mind seemingly contains multitudes—multitudes of souls. So clearly, Murtagh is drawing his power from other souls along with his own, and if he was taught by Galbatorix, then it stands to reason that Galbatorix does, as well.
But where do the souls come from? Well, if we’re supposing that the Vault of Souls is in Helgrind, that immediately reminds us of another sinister pair of characters: the Ra’zac. Now, the Ra’zac are the king’s personal dragon hunters, and also are creatures meant to prey on humans. So, it’s clear that these Ra’zac do a lot of killing. But instead of letting all the power of a soul go to waste, why not find a way to store it, instead? Say, to use a spell that, instead of destroying the soul of those killed by the Ra’zac, instead stores it in a handy vault: a Vault of Souls. This explains why Galbatorix is seemingly impossibly getting stronger every year: every time the Ra’zac kill a person, that soul is added to the Vault and Galbatorix (and now Murtagh, as well) become more powerful. Of course, the Vault of Souls is also a physical place, so why not throw in any dragon eggs for safekeeping? Namely, that of the green dragon.
And said contents explain why opening the vault will be so important: not only will it give the Varden access to another dragon egg and soon another rider, but it will also make Galbatorix and Murtagh both substantially less powerful, and give Eragon a fair chance at beating one or both of them (with help from the green dragon’s rider, of course).
The True Identity of Eragon’s Father
Hear me out on this one. A lot of you are screaming one very misinformed and meaningless thing right now: “Murtagh said that Morzan was his father in the ancient language, and since you can’t lie in the ancient language, Morzan must be his father!” However, this is not at all true, and in reality Morzan is not Eragon’s father. It is Brom.
First, you must understand that it is possible to tell an untruth in the ancient language. You see, just because Murtagh said it in the AL doesn’t mean that it’s true, just that he believed it was true. That was the entire reason Eragon wrote a poem for the Agaeti Blodhren: so Islanzadi could tell Eragon that it was possible to tell untruths in the AL, if you really believed that they were true. So because Murtagh has seen no evidence showing that Eragon could not also be a son of Morzan, and because they do share a mother, he believes that Eragon was also the son of Morzan.
Now, for the extensive evidence:
P. 546
“Son and Father alike, both blind as bats”.
This is about betrayal. Brom was blind to Morzan’s betrayal, and Eragon was blind to Murtagh’s betrayal.
Consider this quote from page 280 of Eldest: (Oromis) “Morzan was my greatest failure. Brom idolized him. He never left his side, never contradicted him, and never believed that he could best Morzan in any venture. Morzan, I’m ashamed to admit-for it was within my power to stop-was aware of this and took advantage of Brom’s devotion in a hundred different ways. He grew so proud and cruel that I considered separating him from Brom. But before I could, Morzan helped Galbatorix to steal a dragon hatchling, Shruikan, to replace the one Galbatorix had lost, killing the dragon’s original rider in the process. Morzan and Galbatorix then fled together, sealing our doom.”
“You cannot begin to fathom the effect Morzan’s betrayal had on Brom until you understand the depth of Brom’s affection for him. And when Galbatorix at last revealed himself and the Forsworn killed Brom’s dragon, Brom focused all of his anger and pain on the one who he felt was responsible for the destruction of his world: Morzan.”
I think that sums it up.
Riddle #3 – This is the most important one
p. 546
“While two may share two,
And one of two is certainly one,
One might be two.”
While two sons (Eragon and Murtagh) “may” share the same two parents (Morzan and Selena),
And one parent of two parents, the Mother-Selena, is certainly the same one parent of both sons,
One parent, the Father, might be two Fathers (Brom and Morzan) each having one of the sons.
What in the world could this riddle be about if it doesn’t support the two-father theory?
One last fact: Blagden never met Morzan so he could not have been talking about him. Morzan was never blind. He knew exactly what he was doing. He was after power. Brom was the only one who was blind by his insane idolization of Morzan.
Eragon pages 281-282:
While they spoke, Saphira crawled into the cave and greeted Eragon. She was glad to see him, but there was deep sadness in her thoughts and words. She laid her big blue head on the floor and asked, “Are you well again?”
“Not quite.”
“I miss the old one.”
“As do I… I never suspected that he was a rider. Brom! He really was an old man – as old as the Forsworn. Everything he taught me about magic he must have learned from the riders themselves.”
Saphira shifted slightly. “I knew what he was the moment he touched me at your farm.”
“And you didn’t tell me? Why?”
“He asked me not to,” she said simply.
Eragon decided not to make an issue of it. Saphira never meant to hurt him. “Brom kept more than that secret,” he told her, then explained about Zar’roc and Murtagh’s reaction to it. “I understand now why Brom didn’t explain Zar’roc’s origins when he gave it to me. If he had, I probably would have run away from him at the first opportunity.”
“You would do well to rid yourself of that sword,” she said with distaste. “I know it’s a peerless weapon, but you would be better off with a normal blade rather than Morzan’s butchery tool.”
“Perhaps. Saphira, where does our path go from here? Murtagh offered to come with us. I don’t know his past, but he seems honest enough. Should we go to the Varden now? Only I don’t know how to find them. Brom never told us.”
“He told me,” said Saphira.
Eragon grew angry. “Why did he trust you, but not me, with all this knowledge?”
Her scales rustled over the dry rock as she stood above him, eyes profound. “After we left Teirm and were attacked by the Urgals, he told me many things, some of which I will not speak of unless necessary. He was concerned about his own death and what would happen to you after it. One fact he imparted to me was the name of a man, Dormnad, who lives in Gil’ead. He can help us find the Varden. Brom also wanted you to know that of all the people in Alagaesia, he believed you were the best suited to inherit the Riders’ legacy.”
Tears welled in Eragon’s eyes. This was the highest praise he could have ever received from Brom. “A responsibility I will bear honorably.”
“Good.”
Clearly Brom has told Saphira of things that he wouldn’t want revealed to Eragon until he is mature enough. Eragon would undoubtedly be distraught enough after losing his mentor, and to find out that Brom is also his father would completely confuse and demoralize him at a time when survival is paramount.
Eldest page 656:
Saphira ruffled his hair with a gust of hot breath. “Just remember, whatever Brom’s reasons, he always tried to protect us from danger. He died saving you from the Ra’zac.”
“I know…. Do you think he didn’t tell me about this because he was afraid I might emulate Morzan, like Murtagh has?”
“Of course not.”
He looked at her, curious. “How can you be so certain?” She lifted her head high above him and refused to meet his eyes or to answer. “Have it your way, then.”
This is an enormously important quote. Saphira is waiting to tell Oromis/Glaedr (she might have done so already) about Brom being Eragon’s father. I think it’s a sure bet that Oromis will be the one to tell Eragon the truth. Just like in Book 1, Saphira knows that Eragon isn’t quite mature enough to receive this information.
Plus, if you look at it from a logistical standpoint, you’ll notice two things: 1) Inheritance is a coming-of-age story/trilogy, and Eragon shouldn’t (and hasn’t) come of age by the end of the second book and 2) Christopher Paolini just dropped a huge bombshell a mere 4 pages ago that Morzan is Eragon’s father – that would be absolutely horrendous writing to reveal something like that and then change it 4 pages later. This “revelation” is the big twist at the end of the novel. It’s just that we’ll find out that it wasn’t really a twist after all.
There is a chapter in Eldest titled “Inheritance.” In it, Murtagh takes Zar’roc from Eragon and claims it as his inheritance. This conveniently leaves Eragon without a sword. In the third book Eragon will get his inheritance and his proper rider’s sword (meaning that it matches the color of his dragon).
We are never told what happens to Brom’s sword. It is only mentioned indirectly when Eragon converses with the elf sword maker Rhunon. She mentions that there are only two of her swords left (other than Morzan’s and Oromis’), and they happen to each be held by two elven families. One is Brom’s, and the other is likely a green sword that will go to the rider of the green dragon.
This makes Brom’s sword Eragon’s inheritance, and this is the Inheritance Trilogy, after all.
However, there are some other questions that must still be answered. For example, why, if Brom was Eragon’s father, would he not raise his own son while both live in Carvahall? And why would Brom never tell Eragon that he was his father?
In response to those two questions: there was no evidence whatsoever to imply that Eragon would be a rider in his early life. Brom was there in Carvahall to watch over him, and he did teach his son all about the old ways. When Eragon went to Brom’s to ask him questions about the riders Brom answered all of his questions. One of the best ways to teach is through stories, and in order to have Eragon learn more he had to be interested in riders and their history. I also think that if Brom said that he was Eragon’s father and a Rider, Eragon would be a whole lot less likely to believe that the riders really did exist and that they had fallen. If you’re told that all of the riders are dead, except that this ordinary storyteller that everyone’s known for 15 years is one, the stories would be a whole lot less credible.
There’s also the fact that if Brom told Eragon that he was his father, other people in Carvahall would probably find out and word of it might leak back to Galbatorix. If Galbatorix found out that the last remaining rider and his son were living in Carvahall, I believe he would have left Uru’baen and gone out to destroy the village.
Thirdly, if Eragon knew that Brom was his father, he could possibly reveal it when someone enters his head (like the twins) and the odds were reasonable (and it actually happened in the book) that the one(s) who find out that Eragon is Brom’s son worked for Galbatorix. If Galbatorix found out that the newest rider that wasn’t under his control was the son of Brom, he would have to assume that he was raised by Brom, and was the beneficiary of a lifetime of teaching by Brom. Since we know Brom was powerful and strong enough to have a hand in the deaths of eight of the Forsworn, his lifetime knowledge passed down to his son would make Eragon a much more deadly enemy than if Eragon was raised by a random farmer and never had any contact with Brom. If Galbatorix believed that Eragon was Brom’s son, he himself would have flown to the battle at the end of Eldest, and it would have been a forgone conclusion.
And the big question: if Brom is indeed Eragon’s father, then how on earth would he and Selena have a chance to “make” Eragon?
The potential for an affair comes to mind, or for a king Arthur-type situation. Or, as we don’t know exactly how long Selena was missing from the castle (“many months” is a very unclear length of time), she could have met Brom and fallen in love with him after running from the castle. Bear in mind that around the time of Selena’s disappearance, Morzan was off searching for Saphira’s egg, which had just been stolen, so would not have been around the castle or seeing Selena at any time. And that give Brom ample opportunity to see her.
Brom’s Seven Words
Remember these? Just before his death, Brom tells Eragon seven words in the ancient language, then what they mean, and then he tells them only to use the words in great need. What these words could possibly be, however, is open to much interpretation.
The first theory is that these words are Eragon’s (or someone else’s) true name, yet this is unlikely for many reasons, first because seven words is far too long to be a person’s name, second because telling a person their true name can be incredibly dangerous, and third, how on earth would Brom know? Instead of that, it could be possible that these words have something to do with the Menoa tree, perhaps a way to communicate with it in some way. However, this seems unlikely because something like that would be more of an interest than something that should only be used in great need. Another theory is that the seven words are some sort of password to be told to the family in possession of Brom’s sword so they will know to give it to Eragon, but again, that does not sound like something that should be used, “only in great need.”
Another possibility is that what Brom told him is a spell that human dragon riders could use to boost their physical attributes to become equal to those of an elf, or perhaps the enchantments that Oromis uses to keep himself alive despite his sickness or how elves can sing to trees and other plants. That would explain why no elf knew of (or planned to teach Eragon) these spells, but Brom did. This seems unlikely, however, because Eragon has already had his attributes boosted to match those of an elf (thus making Brom’s words useless) and singing to trees doesn’t seem to be a very useful ability and especially not one that should only be used when the need is great.
The most likely (and simplest) explanation, of course, is that these seven words are a very powerful spell (of either destruction or healing) that, unfortunately, has a terrible energy cost or other price attached to it that means the spell should only be used in the most dire of situations. Of the two choices, destruction is much more likely.
The New Dwarf King
The question here is simple: Orik or someone else? The other dwarves seemed to be against Hrothgar and his pro-dragon policies; as Orik also seems pro-dragon, likely the other clan leaders (as Orik is Hrothgar’s heir, he will take control of Durgrimst Ingietum) will vote for one other than Orik as new king.
Unless, of course, something happens to change their minds before the election takes place. Now, it will be a while before a new dwarf king will be elected, as Hrothgar must be buried first, and he will have a long way to travel before he can be laid to rest. That gives Eragon and Saphira ample opportunity to do a variety of things, one of which will be Saphira healing the star sapphire. After Saphira fixes, “the heart of Tronjheim,” that likely will change the hearts of the dwarven clan leaders and cause them to act in the interest of their now pro-dragon people: to elect a pro-dragon candidate. And that candidate would be none other than Orik. However, the clan leaders likely will not act as one, and it will shape up to be a rather messy election.
So, expect Orik to become the king of his people, but the process may not be pretty.
Eragon’s Love
Who will Eragon fall in love with? It’s part of Angela’s prediction, that, “an epic romance is in your future, extraordinary, as the moon indicates—for that is a magical symbol—and strong enough to outlast empires. I cannot say if this passion will end happily, but your love is of noble birth and heritage. She is wise, powerful, and beautiful beyond compare.” So, there are two possibilities: either he will fall in love with Arya, or he will not.
If he does not fall in love with Arya, than who with? Or will he fall in love again at all? Some people claim that he will fall in love with Katrina, but that is simply idiotic: why on earth would he fall in love with a person who is already engaged to his brother? It makes no sense. Eragon will not fall in love with Katrina.
Another option, slightly more likely, is Nasuada. People have said that because Arya does not return Eragon’s love, it does not qualify as romance and therefore his epic romance is still to come. They also claim that she would fulfill the prophecy because, as leader of the Varden, she is certainly noble. However, this is not correct, for the prophecy reads, “of noble birth and heritage,” meaning that Nasuada would have to be born into nobility to fulfill it, and as she was merely born to a man who was fleeing from the empire and not some manner of royalty. But regardless of the prophecy, it still seems unlikely that Eragon and Nasuada will fall in love. After all, Nasuada has a rebellion to lead, and falling in love with one of her vassals is certainly going to disrupt the war effort.
And of course, the possibility remains that Eragon will never fall in love after ending his pursuit of Arya. But I believe that we will see more evidence connected to other theories that makes this option also very unlikely.
Now, it is of course the most likely that his love for Arya is the fulfillment of the prophecy, and when Saphira mates with the green dragon, ridden by Arya, that will influence Arya to fall in love with Eragon, and there will be the epic romance. And, of course, because they are both riders and therefore understand each other perfectly, this romance will have a happy result.
Saphira’s Mate
One of the most important questions concerning the future of Alagaesia: who will be Saphira’s mate? There are five possibilities, some more likely than others.
The first and least likely is Glaedr. The argument for him is that he is the only male dragon currently on the same side as Saphira, so when the situation begins to look bleak the two of them will have to mate to sustain their race. However, Glaedr has already refused Saphira once, and likely she’s learned her lesson and won’t try again.
Another possibility is that Saphira and Eragon will search for wild dragons, and Saphira will find one willing to be her mate. However, Saphira and Eragon are going to be busy with a war, and will have no time to go and search for other dragons, making this option also unlikely. It is possible that they could search after the war, there is another theory that essentially disproves this that I’ll get to later.
Thorn and Shruikan have pretty much the same chance, but the only real way for Saphira to mate with either of them would be if she were captured by Galbatorix. If captured, Saphira would be forced to mate with one of them, and there’s no way Saphira is strong enough to resist them. This is quite possible, but considering CP’s plot so far, it is not as likely as…
Saphira falling in love with the green dragon. Varden gets egg, egg hatches, green dragon matures, falls in love with Saphira, they mate. Sounds simple, is simple. If Saphira wants a mate on her side of the war and Glaedr isn’t going to, the only option for her is the green dragon.
The green dragon and Thorn or Shruikan are both equally likely based on the evidence, so you have to consider which is more likely based on what CP has written so far. Now, so far, nothing bad has happened to Saphira. That can mean one of two things: either nothing will happen to her, or she’s due for something bad to happen. But it’s more likely that nothing bad will happen to her, and she will fall in love and mate with the green dragon.
Who Will Die?
Who, exactly, of the major characters, is going to die? Obviously Galbatorix will; that goes without saying. It’s highly likely that Oromis and Glaedr will as well, Oromis from his mysterious disease and Glaedr from Oromis’ death. People also seem to think that Thorn will die, but Murtagh will not. It is certainly possible, as Murtagh is on the side of evil (if reluctantly), but Galbatorix will not make the mistake of leaving loopholes in his oaths again. That means that if Eragon and Murtagh meet again in battle, Eragon will be unable to show Murtagh any mercy. It is likely that Thorn will die, and Murtagh may as well, that is unclear. Whether the king’s dragon, Shruikan, will die is another debate. Some think that he will die along with Galbatorix, while others think that, because Galbatorix was not Shruikan’s original rider, the bond between the two will be weaker than normal, meaning that Shruikan will not only survive Galbatorix’s death but become good upon the death of his surrogate rider. As we have not yet seen Galbatorix or Shruikan, we cannot determine the strength of their bond and thus cannot determine the answer to this question, one way or another. However, Shruikan dying with his rider is more likely.
One of the strangest—and, even stranger, most popular—death theories is that Arya will die. But seriously, people. One of the most obvious things in this entire trilogy is that Arya will be the rider of the green dragon. And if she is that green dragon’s rider, and we know that there are two dragons in the sky in Eragon’s dream before Garrow’s death (more on that dream later, but it is rather obvious foreshadowing for the last scene of book three), that means that the riders of those two dragons (Saphira and the green dragon) must survive the war, and therefore Eragon and Arya will survive. And while we’re on the subject of main characters’ love interests dying, Katrina won’t die, either.
Of course, there will be some other casualties, namely a bunch of minor characters: several high-ranking Varden members (likely including Nasuada and Orrin), unimportant elves and servants of Galbatorix, villagers, etc.
Who Will Kill Galbatorix?
Yes, believe it or not, there are dissenting opinions regarding the answer to this question. The choice for Galbatorix’s killer is split between two people, one very obvious and one… rather odd: Eragon and Shruikan (if you think Murtagh will kill Galbatorix by throwing him into a bottomless pit filled with glowing blue electricity, please, for the sake of all mankind, commit hara-kiri… now).
Some people seem to think that Shruikan will turn good at the last moment possible and kill Galbatorix, typically by squishing him. However, this is highly unlikely. Regardless of how Shruikan originally felt about Galbatorix, the two of them have now been joined for a hundred years. Considering how much the two of them have been though in that time, it’s quite obvious that they care quite a lot for each other, and therefore Shruikan will not kill Galbatorix.
So that leaves one man to be Galbatorix’s killer: Eragon. As it should be.
The New Ruler of Alagaesia
With Galbatorix dead, who will rule Alagaesia in his place? It clearly will not be Eragon, for he will leave Alagaesia forever, as Angela predicted, and how can he rule a place when he is no longer there? And besides that, he has already expressed that he does not want to rule.
The new ruler will not be an elf or dwarf. They already have their own rulers in their own kingdoms, so that just leaves the humans to decide who will rule. So to determine that, we must look to the past rulers of humans in Alagaesia: king Palancar and his descendants. And where did the descendants of Palancar dwell before they were driven out by the soldiers of the king? Palancar valley or, more specifically, Carvahall. So, who is in charge of Carvahall? Roran. So he will rule Alagaesia as his ancestors did, with Katrina as his queen.
What Will Happen At the End of Book Three?
The answer to this final question can be determined by decoding something given to us relatively close to the beginning of Eragon: Eragon’s dream in the chapter Deathwatch. In this dream, Eragon sees some people boarding a silver ship. Two of them are apparently taller than all the others, a man and a woman who are holding hands. Then the ship sails away, and a man who stayed on the beach cries out, and as the dream fades away, two dragons are seen in the sky.
The two dragons are the easiest to decode: Saphira and the green dragon, flying away above the ship that they’re too large to land on. The presence of the two dragons means that their riders, Eragon and Arya, are on the ship as well. And as there are two people taller than all others, holding hands, that are specifically mentioned among the rest of those boarding the ship, we can assume that these two are elves and, most likely, Eragon and Arya. Them holding hands is another indication that they have indeed fallen in love. Eragon is boarding this ship because his destiny is to leave Alagaesia together, so of course his bonded partner, Saphira, and his love, Arya (and the green dragon), will journey away with him. And because Arya is an elf, where better to go but to the old home of the elves, Alalea?
The man screaming on the beach is up for considerably more debate. The possibilities are Murtagh (which assumes that he survives the war), Roran and, in an incredibly complicated theory I’m not going to delve into that involves the son of Arya and Eragon and a spell enabling time travel, the first Eragon. It being Murtagh is unlikely for a couple of reasons: first of all, if it’s him, where’s Thorn? It’s been said as incredibly rare for a rider to survive the death of his or her dragon, yet we already know of two: Brom and Galbatorix. So for us to have met more riders that have survived the deaths of their dragons than those who have not would imply against what we’ve already been told as fact, meaning that if Thorn is dead, so should be Murtagh, meaning that because Thorn is not present, the man is not Murtagh. Second, why would he be there, and third, why would he be screaming? There appears to be nothing on that boat that he cares incredibly for. He was friends with Eragon, yes, but certainly not enough of one to scream at his departure.
Which leaves Roran. Yes, of course he would be there to see his foster brother and brother’s wife, and the last two dragon riders in Alagaesia, leave forever. And of course he would scream in anguish at never being able to see his foster brother again, not knowing for the rest of his live what became of him. Roran fits.

dragonrider you seem to know alot about the third book when it hasnt even come out yet…

Dearest TLS-thank you for pointing out that Brom really is Eragon’s father. I have been saying that on this site (and i quote Obi-Wan Kenobi here) “for a long long time”
Now howzabout you lay off my good friend Book Lover.
That’s right.
I value Book Lover’s opinion far more than yours. That MIGHT have something to do with the fact that she (or he) has NEVER stooped as low, in her (or his) residence on this site as you have in your meager, insulting, and just plain stupid posts. I cannot stand it when people insult my good friends and/or word sparring partiners.
It just so happens that I am a computer technician at Yale Colledge. Stop being so infantile, or I will find you, spam you, and order 300 pepperoni/sardine pizzas to your home.
Guess what? I’m SO not even joking.
Yours truely,
The Christian Avenger

o ya i didnt randomly come to this site eh iv been here bfor like 300 comments back or so an i was like help book lover like tell someone off so ya i wasnt hatin on him/her just its really really likely that brom IS eragons father but watever c it as u like
December 1, 2007 at 4:20 pm
tls- i think that Brom is not eragons father for most reasons of my own. i also think that he IS NOT eragons father cause of the phoreciy thing from Blagden. whick i have posted countless times on this site. but since u want to know i will post it again.
While two may share two
And one of two is certainly one
One may be two
i think it means that they have the same parents. And 1 of them followed 1 of the parents.
Proving Brom is not Eragon’s father. But it may be Morzan like said in the book on page 652
happy now???

I’M ALSO GLAD THAT YOU WERE INTELLIGENT ENOUGH TO FIGURE OUT THAT I’M NOT A TECHNICIAN.KEEP GUESSING! WELCOME TO THE SITE.
BOOK LOVER-NO PROBLEM. IT’S NOT AS IF YOU WOULDN’T DO THE SAME FOR ME…….. 😉
ALSO, IN RESPONSE TO THE POEM….
While two may share two-TWO BOYS MAY SHARE THE SAME PARENTS
And one of two is certainly one-ONE, THE MOTHER, IS CERTIANALLY A PARENT OF BOTH
One may be two-THE FATHER COULD BE TWO PEOPLE-MORZAN AND BROM
LAST, BUT NOT LEAST-
BROM LIVES IN ME
SIGNING OFF,

lol + thas like the main reason y i think that brom is eragons dad

August 24, 2007 at 5:30 pm
The people on here aren’t dumb, well i’m not they can vouch for themselves, i’m sure they’re all intelligent people. Can we not talk about religion, i have many issues with religion. The most obvious of which is that it is faith, the term faith requires one to ignore all logic. Dues Ex Machina, i hope that’s not involved, every time it seems like a cop out, i’m fine with it happening in the book just not with it being important in the defeat of Galby.

i just got this email about the eragon book’s:
As many of you have heard, I am writing the final chapters of Book Three, which will be published September 23, 2008. Earlier this year, I realized that I had too much story to fit into one volume and that a fourth novel was necessary to complete the adventures of Eragon and Saphira as I originally envisioned them. Therefore, what began as the Inheritance trilogy has become the Inheritance cycle.
I know from your letters that you are curious about the name and cover design of Book Three. The decision to add a fourth book to the Inheritance cycle has affected many things, this included. I promise you’ll be the first to hear as soon as the title of Book Three is announced. And, like you, I am excited to see what the cover will look like!
My friends at Random House have some exciting pre-publication activities planned for 2008. You can anticipate that something new and interesting will be revealed each month, beginning in January.

23 – 9 = 12 right?
has anyone read the lightning thief/
everyone has read it at my school
January 10, 2008 at 1:24 am
i havent read the lightning thief no.
no 23-9 equals 14.
heres a question, is the picture on the front of eldest of murtagh’s dragon thorn? or is it maybe of Oromis’s dragon because it looks way too old to be murtagh’s. Thorn was quite young, it said he was younger than saphira, but the picture looks heaps older than the picture of saphira on eragon.
but then again its unclear how old saphira is meant to be in the picture of her. hope that made sense lol

the lightning thief is about a boy who finds out his dad is poseido (the god of the sea in greek mithology) and zeu’s masterl ightning bolt is stolen and they think percy (the boy in the story) stole it. so he has to find it before the summer solstice (in 10 days,according to the book). guess who he thinks stole it. none other than his uncle. as in uncle hades, god of the underworld. guess where the underworld is. LOS ANGELES. which translated from spanish means THE ANGELS. nothing angelic about where he’s going. i think the book was interesting after all THE TITLE 4 THE 1ST CHAPTER WAS

new news :
Kvetha Fricäya! Greetings, Friends!
I am pleased to tell you that the title of Book Three in the Inheritance cycle is Brisingr. Sometimes one’s first thought is best, and so it was with naming this book. After many months of trying to sum up a complex story in a single word, it struck me that I had had the name all along. For reasons that will become clear when you read Brisingr, this title is perfect.
Brisingr is an Old Norse word for “fire.†As you may remember, in Eragon, Brom uses the word brisingr to start a fire. This is the first time Eragon hears an ancient language word, a word of magic. Later, when Eragon is cornered by Urgals in Yazuac, he shouts “Brisingr!†to great effect (see Eragon—chapters “Revelation at Yazuac” and “Admonishments”).
Both elements of the cover, the gold dragon Glaedr and the title, touch on Eragon’s inheritance. With his painting, John Jude Palencar has captured the dignity and wisdom of Glaedr, and Random House has again designed an awesome book cover.
More exciting news is on the horizon . . .
May your swords stay sharp!
Christopher Paolini
January 16, 2008 at 10:15 pm
Book Three will be titled Brisingr!
January 16, 2008 at 10:31 pm
ahhhhh i can’t belive it why brisingr??? yeah i love the word its my fav word of the language but, it can’t b the name. oh well it BETTER b a good book OR ELSE
January 16, 2008 at 10:36 pm

January 18, 2008 at 12:55 am
book lover what state do u live in…
oooo and thanks 4 agreeing with me
(ebrithill)hi guys book lover i love u for agreeing with us
January 18, 2008 at 1:00 am
book lover i ask because we had snow and school to day
January 18, 2008 at 1:24 am
can it be possible for Shruikan to go to Roran after the death of Galbatorix.
January 18, 2008 at 5:24 am
im glad there will be four books because that means it is a lot less like star wars 4-6 than i originially thought. theres a thing on shurtagl that explains why inheritance is a lot like star wars 🙂
because everyone is arguing about it i will voice my opinion: Brom is not eragons father!!! :P.
I think that brisingr is an excellent title for the third book, but of course we’ll have to wait to know if it really fits the book :).
Thorn – i think that is is very unlikely that shruikan to go to another rider after Galbatorix’s death, but is not impossible because he was not connected as most dragons were to their riders, due to it not choosing him, but rather being bound by dark magic to serve him. so will not necessarily die when his rider dies as dragons normally did 🙂
January 18, 2008 at 5:26 am
oh both those 🙂 were meant to be : )
January 18, 2008 at 1:08 pm
Hello to one and all
On a whim I was surfing the net for news about the inheritance trilogy and what do I find? It’s now the inheritance cycle, four books (YAY) and the title of the third book is Brisingr! I am so excited about this!
I also found this weird and cool comment-forum!
January 18, 2008 at 1:25 pm
I have theorys about what eragon’s true name is and the whole Brom/Eragon father thing.In one of his interviews CP said the title of third book was really important to the story sooo…….I think that brisingr is or has something to do with eragons true name
I think brom could be eragons father. That little thing bludgeon said;
like father like son both as blind as bats ( or something like that)
unlike a lot of you guys/girls I think it means that brom doesnt know he is eragons father
Just putting it out there
Also for future reference…Im a guy. No offense but it seems to me that this comment-forum is crowded with girls…not that Im complaining 🙂
January 18, 2008 at 2:30 pm
YAY lots of other people who share my theory!!! well more of my fact cause its like true
thorn- YES!!!!!! i totally agree with the statement. it makes sense that he is not!!!!!! i live someplace in the U.S. well on the east coast.
8 months 5 days
YAY no school today either!!!!!!!!!
January 18, 2008 at 5:16 pm
my bro is right
what about Shruikan will he go to Roren
January 18, 2008 at 5:38 pm
how come New-England cant have school
NY is melting
January 19, 2008 at 12:44 am
If shruikan went to roran, that means that roran was already a dragonrider and that dont look like happening but you never know do you, I might be totally wrong
January 19, 2008 at 12:47 am
Whoa! I forgot about time difference, its late there so Im probably the only one on
WAH! 😦
January 19, 2008 at 5:03 am
RORAN WILL BE A RIDER!!!

i think it will be like Shruikan awakening from a deep sleep and will choose Roren

i don’t think that that the elf who taugh Eragon about sword fighting will be a rider. I guess it could b possible but idk
ebrithill- No, Srukien will most likely be killed or die, he won’t go to Roran.
January 21, 2008 at 4:41 am
I personally think Roran will be the next rider. He has all the traits of one. And he has reasons to be one, Katrina, revange, bla, bla, bla.
January 21, 2008 at 4:43 am
How did Shrukien survive without his rider? Did Galbatorix touch him before his true rider could? Dragons can’t survive without their riders right?
January 21, 2008 at 2:57 pm
8 months 2 days
argetlam- yes dragons can’t survive without their riders, gal used very powerful magic on Shrukien so that he wouldb he dragon or something like that
happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day every one

y not booklover
argetlam brom servived but went thru deep depresion and went mad for a wiel
January 21, 2008 at 10:06 pm
ebrithill- cuz roran gonna get the new dragon and cuz he’ll die!!!!!!!!!!
😀
January 22, 2008 at 1:01 am
No he’s not Arya’s going to get the new dragon and Roran will get Shrukien and Eragon will give Roran the throne
January 22, 2008 at 1:04 am
p.s
I don’t like the title brisingr
January 22, 2008 at 2:37 am
omg, guys-chill
and hey-the new title is cool, but i hate that it’s not empire-i was depending on it!
p.s.-this is a special announcement-our beloved friend Dragonrider has been kidnapped by aliens,and is now the only living person to be able to truthfully claim to have seen Elvis Presly for the last 20 years. Just thought you otta know.
jk,jk,jk,jk, but WHERE IS SHE? IT HAS BEEN MONTHS, PEOPLE!!!!
;( ;( ;(
January 22, 2008 at 2:46 am
oh, btw-brom is eragon’s father. i hope to not repeat myself, and i really hope that when this is all over, i will have the strength NOT to say “i toldja so.”
January 22, 2008 at 2:54 am
ebrithill- Brisingr s the best title eva
And to all americans- how many presidential candidates ddo you ppl need I mean shesh it seems like half the general population is running 😛
January 22, 2008 at 3:39 am
roran will be the next rider!! 😛 just thought i’d put that out there lol

January 23, 2008 at 2:40 am
“And to all Americans- how many presidential candidates ddo you ppl need I mean shesh it seems like half the general population is running”
A direct quoit from Brisingr
We only have 3 democrats and 3 republicans, and we will narrow it down to 1 of each
Do not lesion 2 my twin he is a dime whit we all know that Shrukien gonna die
But I still don’t think that Rorans the next rider
oooooo I gust thought that mayB Katrina I mean that he made a prisoner a rider owns he mite do it agene
January 23, 2008 at 2:31 pm
that was only by chance THORN.
and y cant Arya and Roran both be riders?
and Brom is not Eragons father.
I think it’s a offal title!!!!!!

So, all of my CP Eragon Eldest Loving friends, What’s happening? Sorry I kinda went AWOL on all of you!!!
I wasn’t kidnapped by aliens, though I might as well have been I was gone so long!
I just have to tell you all…I am VERY irritated that the third book is going to called Brisinger and I am ALSO very irritated that the cover of the third book IS going to be a pic. of GLAEDR! EVERYTHING I’VE EVER KNOWN IS A LIE!!!!!!!!!!!
Are all of you HONESTLY still arguing about the whole Brom vs. Morzan thing? Come on guys, let it go. Brom is Eragon’s father and that’s all there is to it. hahajkjk!!! 😆 (that smiley never gets old for me!!! :D)
So, I have been rather obsessive with some other things lately. Is there any OTHER crazy news concerning Eragon and etc. that I should know? I saw the release date (Sep. 20th right?) SO EXCITED!!!!
Remember that book I was writing like forever ago!? Ya, well I haven’t abandoned it yet and I currently have around 30,000 words. Its coming along really well. Sorry if you guys are totally like “I don’t CARE! WHY CAN’T THIS GIRL JUST SHUT UP” but I am rather proud of myslef. I already wrote the end and I am sorry to say to you people who hate sad endings, but…it has a sad ending. that is why I am also writing a SEQUEL!
So, now I’ve talked about myself a tad. What’s up with all you!? I am going to try and get on here more often, but my life is a big wad of stress and tests and studying and STUPID GEOGRAPHY TEACHERS 😡 ok, got that out of my system. ANYWAYS> hope you havn’t all forgotten who I am!!!

hey Mr. Paolini i bet u never expected ur first books to be such a big hit… Thanks for ur contribution to the literature world… i do have 1 ? though do u no if u will making a trip to San Francisco California for a book signing. i hope so it would be an honor to meet u.
~MAY YOUR SWORD REMAIN QUICK, MIND SHARP, AND WRITING HAND FREE OF CRAMPS.
February 4, 2008 at 5:45 am
BRISINGR im srry but i must correct u because an oath in the Ancient language CAN NOT be broken only munipulated the Spell, and Spell it is that Eragon put on Elva can be reversed because it is infact a Spell not an oath… for example, the Oath Murtagh spoke to Galbatorix was for him to bring Eragon to the king but failed because of its wording and how he percived it. As for Rhunon-elda (the smith) (refer to pg. 301 in Eragon) “i suppose u want me to forge a sword for him? You know i swore to never create instruments of death again,not after that traitor of a rider and the destruction he wreaked with my blade” (presumed its refering to Zar’Roc) because its says she wont create instruments of death. she can still make a sword if she trust that Eragon wont use just to kill or wreck havoc. Also and this is just a theory it is possible since Broms rider blade never appeared its possible that it is the next blade he recives seeing that it would be appropriate since it already matches his dragon
February 4, 2008 at 12:58 pm
geez phoenix caught me by the short ones there
firstly, manipulating oaths is basically the same as braking them
secondly, youd think galbatorix would be smart enough to allow no wiggle room in oaths commands and spells, BUT murtagh didnt capture eragon and saphira and take them to galbatorix, dding more to the whole you can brake oaths thing

Book Lover: I guess some things never change, but I will SO LOVE PROVING YOU WRONG!!! 😆 jk…! My only thing is (I have never really understood the Morzan side of the argument on this thing.) How do you interpret the riddle (while two may share two blah blah etc. etc…? What do you guys (Morzan believers 🙂 ) think that it means? Sorry if you totally don’t want to explain, but I’m curious and want to understand your reasoning (so I can argue against it!!!)
Brom: Yes I did see your comments! The “aliens” had me under extensive hard labor and so I was unable to put my comments on!!! DON’T BLOW UP YOUR COMP.! THEN IT WILL BE YOU WHO IS M.I.A.. MmmmHmmm. So don’t do that! Seriously about the Spreading The Truth About Brom! thing. LIKE PROPOGANDA OR SOMETHING! We should get some Pamphlets and POSTERS PUT UP! (jkjkjk. HAHA, like I would EVER work that much, even for such a great cause!!!)
BUT I will keep arguing my point to anyone that gives me reason to argue them. I JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU PEOPLE THINK THAT MORZAN COULD EVEN POSSIBLY BE ERAGON’S FATHER! NO MATTER HOW COOL THAT WOULD BE, IT JUST ISN’T! BROM IS! END OF STORY. I think i’ve done enough caps for today. HA! I love caps though, don’t you?
ok. Anyways. Does anyone know WHY CP chose Brisinger for the title of the Third book (The final book PART ONE of sorts eh?) I know I am probably like SO out of date and behind, but I just read that it WAS gonna be that, not WHY. I was so sure that it would be Empire. It follows that pattern and I just don’t UNDERSTAND! I mean…BRISINGER? WHY! It has no purpose. NO VALUE! I can totally understand putting Glaedr on the cover, but BRISINGER!!!! 😡 AAAAH! Im gonna cry 😥 Ok, now that my moment of heated ranting is over… I Won’t really cry. I am WAY TO HAPPY to be crying 😀
kk. c you all l8r!

Book Lover: WE’LL SEE!
February 6, 2008 at 9:32 am
dr- Im pretty sure that CP chose Brisingr as the title because it plays a major part in the cycle (i.e. first word eragon learns in the ancient language) and it possibly has something to do with eragon specifically (i.e. part of his true name)
I sure its just me that thinks this, but CP did say that Brisingr is important to the third (and fourth) book in an interview.

Srry Brisingr but the anceint language canot be broken but manipulated as Murtagh showed in Eldest. as for Galbatorix he has become cocky as any corrupted man of power becomes. he bent it his perception. also again as a man of corrupt power he under estimated his enimies. and for those who think Murtagh is working for the king he is but against his will
February 10, 2008 at 3:28 pm
I feel so bad for Murtagh. I was SO mad at him when I found out that he had “joined” forces with Galbatorix even though I kinda knew it was coming since the beginning of the book… 😥 Murtagh doesn’t DESERVE THIS! And yet I think he sort of agrees with Galbatorix even though he is working for him against his will. I feel so sad for Murtagh and so mad at him too! It is a very confused emotion… 🙂
YAY FOR BUMPER STICKERS!
Aren’t all villians just cocky? IT REALLY IRRITATES ME! Wanna know why? This is my honest honest opinion. I hate it when the good guy wins without a scratch. They just ALWAYS WIN! And half the time the reason the bad guy loses is because they made a STUPID mistake that if they had just THOUGHT ABOUT IT, IT WOULDN”T HAVE HAPPENED! I REALLY WANT THE BAD GUYS TO WIN JUST SOMETIMES! Like, I wish that the bad guys would win the battles and just lose the war. This is coming from someone who is obsessed with the villain of a t.v. show…haha! Ya, he lost because of a stupid cocky mistake too. ITS SO SAD! I feel for the villains. I mean (this doesn’t go for all of them, the villain in my tv show is like as bad as bad gets) the bad guys (namely galbatorix) probably thinks that he is making the world a better place. He has this little vision of his and will do anything to accomplish his goals! I MEAN HONESTLY~ Here is a great example I just thought of. In Pirates of the Caribbean, the Pirates win. DUH! You know that pirates will win. BUT aren’t the pirates the “bad guys”? I mean they pilage and steal and whatever all else pirates do, Beckett was trying to get rid of the people who steal and attack civil ships. ya know? Anyways.
That was a really long section of my pointless ranting! PLEASE FORGIVE ME! I know i am a crazy monkey! :(|) <that is a monkey for those of you who couldn’t tell.
ANYWAYS, I don’t really expect you guys to respond to my sillyness up there ^ but that was just what happened to be on my mind at the moment so… yup mmmhmmm!

It was just something I heard. Kinda interesting I thought.
Orik will be the new king. He is next in line hereditarily.
I really doubt that the Razac undergo any evolutionary processes. 😉 I think that their parents are just really tough! Tough enough to knock Saphira out.
What would make a better story is if ERAGON GOT CAUGHT! (and escaped L8R of course) That would be EXCITING! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 BUT, it won’t happen 😥 cuz’ nothing bad EVER happens to the good guy……grrrr.

Wouldn’t that be SO sad (or not) if like ALL our predictions and etc. were WRONG!? Like, he came up with all these things that we didn’t even think of. That would be SO CRAZY! But… I rather doubt it. I mean, there are only so many paths this book can take from where it is now.
anyways.
I AM GOING INSANE AS WELL!

AHAHA! I am sorry. I feel sympathy for you Book Lover. Rubber bands ( and really braces in general) totally suck. But, it won’t last forever….
No, bella didn’t get bitten in eclipse. bummer! and, I am sorry to all you die hard Inheritance Cycle Fans, but Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse TOTALLY KICK RAGON’S BUTT! They are really so much better. More exciting, more intense, more suspenseful. BUT if you don’t like vampires, and you don’t like romance, it really is not for you (but twilight isn’t so bad, nor is New Moon since edward is not even IN it hardly! :cry:) PS I HATE JACOB! HE SHOULD DIE!
alright. I am a slight lunatic when it comes to those books. 🙄
Dark Lord…are you the one that likes to argue!? or was that someone else….hmmm.
I don’t play world of warcraft, but I have sort of played Half Life 2 and Portal (which is really fun, and really difficult unless you are smart ((like me!!)) jk ) Half life two is jumpy….! BUT its fun.
hmm. i am trying to think of things to talk about. THE SNOW IS MELTING! that is so happy for me! I wish i lived somewhere totally warm and like tropical or something. but noooo i get stuck here in a virtual ice age, but the snow is finally MELTING!

February 27, 2008 at 4:01 am
ebrithill-
if the tape is audio, it could be a fake…but a bf shouldn’t treat you like that. let him know that you didn’t think it was funny (be firm, but try not to flip out totally..).
if the tape is a video, your bf either
a)had too much time on his hands
b)really likes tormenting you
c)is trying to break up with you and doesn’t want to make you sad, so he’s making you mad, instead
or
d)really is cheating on you, knew he’d get caught, so he showed you the tape and made it into a joke so you wouldn’t find out
now, i know that some (ok, all) of those aren’t likely, but bear with me, here.
now, as i see it, you can either:
a)laugh it off
b)get really mad, flip out, and dump him,
or
c)firmly tell him that his “joke” wasn’t appreciated and that it hurt you, and if he wants to stay together, he had better shape up
(the “and if he wants to stay together, he had better shape up” part is optional, but that’s what i would say…)
i’m sorry he did this to you. i hope that you can get past it. if you can’t, you can always come here, spew, give us his E-mail, and start a “Spam the BF” campaign.
kk, i gtg. good luck.

it comes out 6 months 23 days or on september 20th!!
February 29, 2008 at 12:36 am
erm…you’re welcome, Ebrithil.
I think that it is only fair to tell you now that both I and my religion wish that nobody was bi, gay, lezbian, or anything else, so if I never mention the subject again, that’s why: both I and my religion find it wrong to be gay, bi, or lezbian. It’s not for the same reason, though, don’t get me wrong; I just cannot imagine being attracted to girls, or girls and guys; all I can ever imagine is loving a boy. My religion (Chritianity), as far as I know, only says that God made man to be male and female, and that anything else is wrong.
That came out all wrong, but I’m really trying to explain, here, as I would if a friend at school told me they were bi or lezbian.
I’m sorry if I offended you. I really don’t want to, but I explained my future abstinance on the subject the only way I can.
With truth.
I really hope that if I offended you (or, indeed, anyone here…) that you will forgive me.
Sadly, hesitant, hopeful,
Brom
February 29, 2008 at 1:37 am
book lover if u thin rubber bands are harsh u should wait until u get ur braces tightened. SRY! realized i wasn’t helping. ebrithil im sorry 4 what happened. i feel bad 4 u and good choice on option B (get really mad, flip out, and dump him). that little $#@^&*! dosen’t deserve a @#$^&* from the streets much less u.
February 29, 2008 at 1:45 am
Knight of the Book-Covered Table. ……um….ok?…..(awkwar silence)…..that relates to us how? let’s drop the subject cuz i feel one of those major, blow out, ultimate debates coming on where people get offended and people look bad. i don’t care if anyone is gay. i’ll still be ur friend. 2 me it’s like saying u like the color purple. it dosen’t matter.
February 29, 2008 at 1:46 am
neway 2 day is my sisters b day!! which reminds me i have 2 call her. TTYL!!
February 29, 2008 at 2:19 am
Hmmm….
first: Ebrithill: DUMP HIM! IF he is going to even joke about something that is that mean, he doesn’t deserve you. You should totally dump him. Save yourself the hassle of having to deal with him anymore!
second: While I also definitely agree that being Bi, Gay, or Lez is kinda wierd and personally I believe it is wrong, don’t judge someone who is before getting to know them. just cuz they are that, doesn’t make them bad people. I don’t know any of the above personally, but its not ok to judge anybody before knowing them regardless of religion, race, or personal habits and beliefs. DON’T BE PREJUDICED PEOPLEZ!
third: Brom: You are really hilarious. I don’t know if you knew that….but I was laughing and those comments I never saw were really funny!
Dwarfgirl: HA! I can’t remember if it was this site or the other daily prophet eragon blog, but we had a debate about religion. No one got mad, it was just a discussion. Same thing with countries. (everyone in that debate seemed to like Europe and Australia better. apparently America is only second best. NOT TRUE THOUGH!!!! GO USA!!!!) We also had a discussion about wether the Bible was fact or fiction. Debate is fun! Just so long as no one gets all unnessicarily offended and starts being all defensive and stuff. I love to state my opinion!
Brom: Ok, first off, this is totally just out of curiousity. If you don’t want to answer, by all means TOTALLY IGNORE THIS! But, I am just wondering, do you have a specific religion or are you JUST Christian. From my understanding, isn’t anyone who believes in Christ Christian? So…Catholic, Baptist, Brethren, wouldn’t they ALL be Christian? So my question is, do you have a more specific Religion? (ps again, if you don’t want to answer, please don’t)
I know that religion is a soft spot for many people, but I think its really interesting and etc. to learn what other people believe. I always respect peoples beliefs even if i don’t share their same views. really, I am just curious. If anyone feels offended, I will totally drop it and back off (though really guys, this shouldn’t offend anyone. I am just curiuos is all. Ignore more if you don’t like it)
ok anyways on to more happy-making things. JACOB IS STUPID! HE KNOWS THAT BELLA LOVES EDWARD! HE TEARS HER APART! I hate the King Solomon analogy he gives because he DOESN”T love her more. He is the one who tore her in two in the first place! If he would have just backed off… then bella wouldn’t have had to make the decision ( however obviuos the answer was) in the first place. He irritates me SO BAD! grrjdkrjdjsk. ALSO, have you all seen the casting for Twilight the Movie? AAH They picked THE WRONG PERSON FOR EDWARD! Jasper is OK, Emmett is ALL wrong. Rosalie and Alice are passable, but Carlisle should be sooo much better looking and Esme isn’t even like pretty at all! grrr. Bella is ok. ALRIGHT off the subject of Twilight now…

errygon> Cool that you are new.
man you guys. I remember a time when there would be like 50 comments over the course of one day. now, its been…like three days and ther have been, what…four comments that (no offense) have nothing to contribute to the site? (except for our lovely count down thing) COME ON GUYS! Give me a reason to stay on here cuz if ya don’t then i am not gonna keep comin back.
March 3, 2008 at 1:57 am
What’s with all the talk about gays? Who are fine by the way. I know a few gays nicest people you’ll ever meet even if they are barracking for the wrong team.
Ok this is news to me but bare with me, why is the third book called Brisingr?
…People live their lives bound by what they accept as correct and true. That’s how they define “reality.” But what does it mean to be “correct” or “true?” Merely vague concepts…their “reality” may all be a mirage. Can we consider them to simply be living in their own world, shaped by their own beliefs?

kk, it took me FOREVER to write this comment, so if it doesn’t post, i shall scream.
loudly.
btw-DR, don’t use empty threats-u know that u can’t resist the charm and the wit that i bring to this site… 😀
jk
*************************************************************
kk, this comment is mostly in response to DR’s comment (not the last one, the one before that…)…(oh, and BTW, I typed this up a while ago and it didn’t work…so if I seem unnecissarily snappish, that’s why)
I’m sorry if I offended anyone-I already said that. I am not biased against anyone, nor do I wish to be. I was just trying to explain that I wouldn’t answer most questions on the subject, and why—(I say “most” because I cannot think of everything…there will always be a question or two that I will answer, so I didn’t put “all” there.)—
Yay! I am hilarious! Not your run-of-the-mill, typical hilarious, either…
“third: Brom: You are really hilarious. I don’t know if you knew that….but I was laughing and those comments I never saw were really funny!”
Yeeeesssss!….
Yea, debate (spirited, spiritual, or otherwise… |J|). Plus, the u.s.a. rock-eth. Do not fight the knowledge. Knowledge (especially sweet, totally intelligent knowledge like this…) only makes one stronger.
Lastly(almost), no, of course I’m not offended! I don’t understand how a simple question could possibly by offensive. There are, to my understanding, no “JUST Christians”. There are a lot of divisions-some are coused by little things, others are huge. I don’t know them all, and even if I did, I wouldn’t write them all, simply because there isn’t enough room on this site ( |J| ). I also have no clue exactly who is and who isn\t a Christian, apart from my own church-I find other religion interesting to learn about, but I am not an avid religion study. I am a Zion Lutheran church-goer. We only worship the One True God (Jesus-The Father-The Holy Spirit), and we take the Bible literally, unless it specifically says “Jesus told a parable of…”, or something to that effect. I don’t know all the other things that define my religion (which looks REALLY BAD when I write it down…), but if you want to know more, you can contact a Zion Lutheran church or look it up (I won’t-I get enough of that in confirmation!).
And now, a question for a question-what is your religion?
Lastly (“FINALLY!” You sigh…), Jacob is wonderful. Bella herself calls him her personal sun. Of course I love Edward (and, yea, casting is WAAAY off…), but think of THIS: if Jacob hadn’t helped Bella, been her “personal sun”, she might’ve died or commited suicide, or something equally desperate (do not say she wouldn’t try. Remember her cliff-diving experience, all because she wanted to hear her “delusions”? (BTW, do you think that will be like HUGE in Breaking Dawn? I do!))
Anyway, I shall now end this “Pointless debate in the Senate” ( if you haven’t seen/don’t like Star Wars, gasp! This is critical, I repeat, situation critical…) with a list of things to look for in 2008…

March 4, 2008 at 5:12 am
OH MY GOSH! EVERY TIME I READ YOUR COMMENTS I AM LAUGHING ALL OVER THE PLACE! –sigh– ok. I’m good.
OK! THERE Is gonna be another Artemis FOWL!!!??? I LOVE THAT BOOK SO MUCH!
The Moon is sooo much prettier then the sun though. I don’t know…Jacob just really really really irritates me. I want to throttle him! I hate the thought of him “eclipsing” Edward. 😥 I don’t know if the delusions will come back. In fact, I don’t know what to think about Breaking Dawn. All I can say is that if something bad happens between Bella and Edward I will seriuosly cry large tears!
STAR WARS ROX! ok, done with that ( Obi-Wan is the BESTEST)
Its interesting to here your remarks about your religion. In response to YOUR question, I am LDS (Latter-Day-Saint) AKA Mormon. I just mentioned not offending anyone, namely you, because I know that some people are easily offended, especially when it comes to religion (and politics! JK) I am not offended by any religious comments as long as they are not attacking anyone. No one should have to defend their beliefs. And, also I am a tad confused. Do you believe that Jesus, The Father, and The Holy Spirit are all one and the same? Also, what are your beliefs concerning an Afterlife?
I AM GONNA BE SO SAD IF OBAMA WINS! I think that I will move to AUSTRALIA (just kidding!) I think he is gonna make things worse. WE SHOULDN’t PULL OUT OF THE MIDDLE-EAST! If we pull out all the money and lives spent there will have gone to waste. its like SURRENDERING!
Dark Lord: Because CP is trying to destroy everything I thought I knew. IT DOESN’T FOLLOW THE PATTERN!!!! 😡
kk, my mom is pestering me to get off her computer so i gotta go now! BYE BYE 4 NOW!
March 5, 2008 at 7:21 am
Brisingr, i don’t mind the name it just doesn’t seem to fit at all especially at this point in time.
Yay now i know when to go to the book stores and by the next Artemis Fowl book.
Interesting religious talk, as you know i don’t believe in any religion being true. The main reason why i think most people believe in religion is because of the concept of an afterlife. Going to heaven not going to hell, of course because i’m not religious i don’t believe in an afterlife, just that when you die that’s the end.

ps dues anyone have a myspace
March 6, 2008 at 11:07 pm
Exactly, Dark Lord-it makes no sense-yet. Who knows? It could have a hidden importance in the third book.
Yes, I’m excited for Artemis Fowl:The Time Paradox as well. Also for Breaking Dawn, and, of course, Brisingr.
Now I have a question. If you don’t want to answer it, that’s fine, don’t. But I am really interested, so if it doesn’t offend you, please answer. What do you believe?
How do you think:
the world was created
humans came to be
life started
Also, why don’t you believe in God, heaven, hell, and all that kind of thing?
March 6, 2008 at 11:16 pm

Ebrithill: Thank You for that! I do my best…jk!
Brom: What am I agreeing with??? Like, did I miss something!?!?!
Dark Lord: You don’t believe in an afterlife? At ALL?! This is just my personal opinion, but doesn’t that… I don’t know… depress you? I would be depressed if i thought when i died and that was just…it. But maybe an afterlife is just an excuse to comfort people when it comes to death…I just don’t think so. I believe in Heaven and Hell.
Know what (concerning GEOGRAPHY) I HATE IT TOO! We have a TOTALLY gay Oral report due on monday. Fortunately for me, mine is on Ancient Egypt which is the freaking COOLEST PLACE ON EARTH! (well…was!) Their life style and beliefs…their government. I mean, it is all just so cool to me! This is a project that, while I despise it, it is at least a subject I like. The world will NEVER really understand how the egyptians built the pyramids 🙂
I LOVE ARTEMIS FOWL! I know that in the book it says he isn’t like cute or anything, but I have always imagined Artemis as so hot! I don’t know….me and my wierd quirky (I hardly know what that means!) ways.
Brisinger for a title is SO RANDOM! I know I have said that already, but its true.
Ok, I am SO wierd. I would tell you all why, but you would probably laugh at me and then shun me!
Ok, so in….an hour and fifteen minutes I have to go BACK to school becuase I, unfortunately, have to perform in the “Grand Concert” I play the violin and we are playing a song called Adagio. IT IS THE MOST BORING SONG EVER WRITTEN! not to mention it is kind of depressing. It is like music you hear in death scenes in revolution and war movies…all slow and sad. I like fall asleep when I play it. But the WORST part is…. I HAVE TO WEAR A DRESS! A BLACK DRESS! Its “concert attire” and i don’t like it….I am definitely a JEANS wearing person. I LOVE JEANS>
ok, sorry. I just have to spout about SOMETHING random every time I get on here or else I would just be keeping it inside and that is not good. Ok, got to go and watch my FAVORITE tv (internet actually) show or I will explode from anticipation!
BYE BYE FOR NOW!

Knight of the Book-Covered Table i believe the life we live now is all that is and all that their ever will be, no afterlife, no reincarnation none of that. I have no idea how the world was created but i’m sure it wasn’t made in six days (no offense). In regard to how humans came to be, i’m not convinced about the theory of evolution nobody is but evolution is real enough, so i guess i believed we evolved from acidic chemicals over billions of years ago. I have a limited knowledge of chemistry and biology so i know that it’s possible.
Why i don’t believe in god? I guess i’m one of those people who need proof to believe in god. If i saw god i’d believe in him and worship him but as it is now i need proof before i’ll believe anything, the bible and religious people have not convinced me. I have tried to believe in it but i can’t. Hope that answered the question.
Dragonrider not believing in an afterlife doesn’t depress me, though the thought of it does seem pretty depressing. When i came to the view it just seem to make life seem sacred to me, and that i should enjoy everyday even if all i do that day is stay at home listening to the radio. I hope that gives a clearer picture. As i see it and don’t take offense to this but who would believe in and worship god if their was no afterlife. It’s the one thing every religion has in common.
I hope i didn’t offend either of you.
I hope Artemis is responsible for the time paradox (love the word paradox it’s awesome) i want to see him up to his evil schemes again. Isn’t this the last book in the series.

u know, the whole the whole saying-you-are-unstoppable-jinxes-you thing!
kk, DarkLord, i will try to give you proof….
*Jericho was conquered, yet the walls fell out
this next one i read a long time ago, and i don’t have the paper with me now…
*the sun decreases about 0.4 cm (could be inches) in size each year. so, the earth cannot be billions, millions, or even one hundred thousand years old, because if it were billions of years old, the world was, at some point, engulfed in the sun. if it were millions of years old, the sun was almost touching the earth, it is incredibe that the earth didn’t melt.
therefore, the earth is, at the most, 10,000 years old, according to the Bible, as well as science. 10,000 years ago, the sun’s position was perfect for life, as it is now.
and that is just the tip of the iceberg. if u want more proof, say so, and i will provide it.

even Book Lover isn’t here and counting down anymore…
i have come to the conclusion that i am the cause of everyone leaving. i may still visit, but i won’t say anything unless someone can assure me that it is not my fault that everyone left.
if you don’t want me back….
….i will understand.
😥 😥
March 11, 2008 at 3:24 am
DON’T LEAVE ME!!!!! I just havn’t had the time to get on lately…
Ok, YES I agree! I cannot tell you how frustrating it is that the good guy always wins because of LUCK! I MEAN, HOW CRUEL TO THE VILLAINS! They have a perfect plan and everything is going good….and then BAM! A lucky FLUKE happens and the bad guys are defeated. In most cases that is a GOOD thing, but for me….well. I have one special favorite evil villain and it depresses me that he always loses because of the good guys stupid luck. 😥
good examples by the way. I love the old testament! I think it is so cool! I am reading it right now for Seminary.
Dark Lord: For your “The world could not have been made in six days” comment: It says that one day in heaven is like 1000 years on earth. That would mean that it took 6000 years for the earth to be created in earth time which makes a lot of sense (more then just 6 days) Also, I understand your perspective on not having an afterlife. I don’t think that you offended anyone, at least not me.
OK I JUST HAD A THOUGHT! WE are like the THREE MUSKETEERS! Cuz Me, Brom, and Dark Lord are the only THREE people on here!!! hmm? hmm? 😆
ALSO, i have a little “proof” of my own. Recently CHARIOTS and the remains of HORSES and PEOPLE were found in the bottom of the red sea. Now how would those have gotten there??? ‘OPE, cuz MOSES parted the Red Sea and was followed by King Ramses, Pharaoh of Egypt. The waters crashed down on them, utterly drowning them. Just curious, how do you explain THAT ONE!?!?!? (this is seriously for reals, I am not making it up…it was on a news story on Yahoo.)
I can count down if you want, but someone needs to get me started cuz i don’t know how many days are left!!!
KK BYE BYE FOR NOW!
March 11, 2008 at 7:07 pm
um…for everyone who asked when the book 3 will be released it’s september 23 2008. i can’t wait this sounds so good.
March 11, 2008 at 9:55 pm
Dragon Rider: I have good news and bad news. Bad news first.
I have corrections to make. First, I asked you if you agreed with
“…Of course, you should never say something like that, especially when you’re an arch villain. It’s just asking for trouble.”
I meant, “Do you agree that ‘hahahahaha, I cannot be stopped’ is a stupid thing to say because it invites trouble for the villian.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Second: I believe, as does my religion, that the earth was made in 6 days, not 6,000. My reason is this: if God can create the world, why is it impossible for Him to do it in 6 days? I think that the passage that you refer to is talking about Heaven, because my pastor, and by extension, me, believes that Heaven is timeless~if you were there for 1,000 years it might seem like a day, and vice versa.

March 12, 2008 at 12:42 am
hmm. ok, Well, I still agree.
I am not implying that its not possible that he created it in 6 days. In fact I believe it (as does my religion) to be quite possible. I believe that taht is how he did it, in six consecutive days. I am just saying that for those who have a harder time believing that, that might be a possible way to look at it. I think that God made the world how he wanted to make it. He could have made it in any way he wanted ( my personal opinion there) I just go by what the Bible says…

Knight of the Book-Covered Table who says earth’s current orbit and distance from the sun has always been this way actually it’s orbit is always changing so it wasn’t. Early earth would have been a burning ball of plasma, so i guess the earth did melt. Carbon dating easily proves that the earth is well over 10000 years old, simply by observing space we can tell the universe is billions of years old.
Their is no evidence that supports the earth being made in 6 days. Dragonrider i don’t know anything about the find in the red sea so i can’t comment on it with any real facts but their are many possibilities as to how they got down there, all that’s left now is to rule out every possibility but the one stated in the bible and then it’s proof, and if that’s already the case then i will need to investigate it for myself. For now until i know anything about it i won’t comment.
…People live their lives bound by what they accept as correct and true. That’s how they define “reality.” But what does it mean to be “correct” or “true?” Merely vague concepts…their “reality” may all be a mirage.

You guys lost me when you started talking about carbon dating whatever. Science is not really my thing, i mean i get A’s but all i know about carbon is basically just like the carbon cycle and stuff. OH WAIT! I get it. Ok, I had a burst of intuition and the entire converstaion just snapped into place! OK I AM GOOD NOW> But, I think we should stop debating about the bible now. It won’t get us anywhere. Like, none of us are going to admit we are wrong and go against our beliefs so there’s no point in talking about it. If you guys still want to, i am all up for it, but otherwise, it seems like a pointless topic.
I WANT TO READ YOUR FANFIC! Fanfics are so awsome! I love http://www.fanfiction.net! It is an awsome site.

Knight of the Book-Covered Table i’m not sure i can explain carbon dating (it simplified is very complex) so you’ll understand it, but i’ll explain another way we know the universe is billions of years old.
Carbon dating is the process of measuring radioactive carbon 14 within organic matter. Carbon 14 is radioactive so it has a half life, a half life is the time it takes for half of the radioactive substance to decay. By measuring how much carbon 14 is present scientists are able to accurately date organic materiial. Now does this all makes sense so far? If not tell me because i won’t be able to explain carbon dating, if so i’ll go into greater detail.
Sorry but this might sound condescending it’s not meant to be. You know what light is? You understand light is the fastest thing in the universe nothing is capable of moving faster? So you understand when we look at the night sky the only thing we see are light sources. A lightyear is the distance light travels in a year, it is the measurement used to measure space. Most stars a billions of lightyears away this is how far away they are. Say a star 20 lightyears away supernovas, it would take twenty years before the light it’s emmitting would reach us and for as to realise what’s happened. Because of this when we look through space we literally look back in time. The further away we look the further back in time we see. Now as i explained it took 20 years for something from twenty lightyears to reach us, we cannot observe it until the light reaches us it is impossible to observe anything without light. The Universe is massive billions of lightyears in size, we have observed events billions of lightyears away the only way for that to be possible is for the light to have reached earth from billions of lightyears away, however it would take billions of years for that light to reach us. Therefore if the earth was 10000 years old and the universe was created after the earth as the bible states then we should only be able to see events from as far back as 10000 lightyears however we have observed events from billions of lightyears away which is only possible if the universe is billions of years old.
Dragonrider it doesn’t have to have evidence per say but that it actually makes sense to me with the evidence present.
…People live their lives bound by what they accept as correct and true. That’s how they define “reality.” But what does it mean to be “correct” or “true?” Merely vague concepts…their “reality” may all be a mirage.

hi peoplz! i can’t wait 2 read twilight. i heard the series was good but i can’t read it cuz everytime i look its been checked out of the library. argh! they should get more than just 1 copy. i could check new moon and eclips out but then i would just skip around and not understand a thing. *sigh*
btw, three musketeers, may your swords be sharp and may u skewer dictionaries. i hate those things.
I NEED UR HELP. i have 2 write a speech on an american landmark. what should i talk about.
March 18, 2008 at 10:33 pm
oh and I’M GETTING MY BRACES OFF APRIL 9!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1ST thing im gonna do is buy a lot of candy. especially gum.
March 18, 2008 at 11:58 pm
An American Landmark….Do….MOUNT RUSHMORE! Its a pretty cool landmark, though I havn’t been there. Other choices off the top of my head…ummm, got none!
Good for YOU! I hated braces, but honestly I HATE THE RETAINER MORE!
Dark Lord: I understand Carbon Dating so far. And I would be curious to know what it is, so if you have nothing better to talk about I am CURIOUS!!! Don’t worry about the complexity. I am a very good student and I can keep up.
By the way. That is cool with the lightyears thing. I already knew that, but it just didn’t really register/occur to me. That is so cool to think about, that something you are witnessing in space actually happened thousands to billions of years ago….I think that the concept of time is very interesting. By the way, just as a side note, the bible is only from when Adam and Eve were put on earth. The whole universe could have been made millions and billions of years ago and Adam and Eve only got put on earth (or became or whatever) 10000 years ago. The bible doesn’t record before Adam and Eve. It is my opinion that everything like evolution and all the dinosaurs and etc happened BEFORE Adam and Eve. Just an opinion. Also, your comments are not condescending at all. They are fact and your opinion concerning those facts.
I understand that for you it might be hard to believe in stuff you can’t see and it is easier to have evidence. I totally respect that. Faith is a very hard concept even for religious people sometimes.
YAY OUR COUNT DOWN-ER IS BACK! HUZZAH FOR BOOK LOVER!
Why skewer a dictionary, they have saved my life in many a school-related situation!
It still amazed me everytime i meet someone who hasn’t read twilight and etc. Edward *sigh* is amazing. IF YOU LIKE JACOB BETTER AFTER READING ECLIPSE I WILL SMACK YOU VIRTUALLY! 🙂
QUESTION: If a tree falls in a forest and no one (NO ONE! NOT A SINGLE LIVING ORGANISM THAT HAS EARS) is there to hear it, does it make a sound? I have my own opinions on this that I will explain later assuming somebody answers in their own opinionated way!

dr- yes it makes a sound cuz it will still fall and make noise.
March 20, 2008 at 12:54 am
thanks DR. i chose Independence hall though. i went on after i finished my hw so i didn’t read ur comment until now.
BTW it does make noise. the kinetic energy from the fall can’t be destroyed. so some energy is released as sound.
March 20, 2008 at 12:57 am
oh no. i learned something from school and actually used it. it’s scary how teachers r right.

March 20, 2008 at 3:48 am
1st off: RANER MORPHEHIS! GO AWAY! WE DON’T WANT YOUR TYPE OF COMMENTS SO DON’T PUT ANY MORE LIKE THAT ON HERE! 😡
Thank You! 🙂
Next: Cool, Independence hall! FUN STUFF! (Ok, not really. School work is never truly FUN, but you get what I mean) And, I totally agree, LET US ALL DO AWAY WITH LOGICAL THINKING! YAY!!! 😆
Third: WHERE in this dimension did my good friend brom go? My theory is eaten by ravenous bunny rabbits. 😀
FOURTH: I am going to be going on vacation so I might not be able to get my hands on a computer, but if I can, then all will go on as before. If I can’t….well…. (sniff sniff) don’t FORGET ABOUT ME!!!!!
and lastly (fifthly?): My opinion about trees falling in forests and what not. First off, a question (used to answer the orginal question in question) What is sound? I shall provide an answer. Sound is a vibration made by an object. The vibrations go out and when they hit our ears our eardrum and all the other little parts of the human and non-human ear transfer those vibration into sound. Now, if there are no eardrums, and no ears around the area (as in, NOT within hearing range.) then all the many vibrations created by the falling tree will not be recieved by any living/non-living creatures with ears. Hence, the vibrations will not be transmitted into sounds. So…if NO EARS are there to recieve the vibrations given off by the fallen tree, then they will not become sound and the sound will not exist. There would be vibrations, but no SOUND. IF ANY LISTENING DEVICE (camera, ear, human, animal, etc. anything that recieves sounds) IS IN THE AREA THEN IT WILL MAKE A SOUND BECAUSE THERE IS SOMETHING THERE TO TURN THE VIBRATIONS TO SOUND! But the answer is NO, it will not. THAT is my hypothesis and personal opinion. Does anyone care to argue (debate. Its one of the funnest things ever!)??? I am really curious for your responses so PLEASE write back on this!
Lastly. Penguins do rule. 🙂
BYE BYE FOR NOW

The tree makes sound even if nobody hears it. I’ll put the stuff on carbon dating later after i make sure that i have all the facts right. Book Lover no i hadn’t heard about Eragon meeting a god in the book, can you tell us more?
…People live their lives bound by what they accept as correct and true.

dark lord- i wish i could but i can’t… that’s all i know. sry… its was kinda random i got an e-mail saying theres a spoiler. that’s all it told us.
March 25, 2008 at 2:45 am
I really hope not. I can handle Dragons, Elves, Shades, Magicians, Dwarves, Raz’zac, Lethrblaka, Trees that aren’t really trees, Talking #1 Cats and #2 Ravens, Fortune Tellers, Cursed 2 yearolds, and Evil half brothers (or not?), but lets not add Gods into the mix…! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
btw, random eragon thought: I really don’t think that Arya and Eragon will ever get together. The possibilty, I think, was killed when we found out that Arya already had a “spouse” (though they don’t get married ever) and he died. Anyways. I do think she’ll be the third rider though…!
anyways. ok BYE!
March 25, 2008 at 5:33 am
I’m pretty sure it’ll be one of the dwarf gods but i got no idea which one.
CP did say we’d learn more about the dwarves so it’s the most likely, i can’t see how it could be any other gods.

March 25, 2008 at 5:47 pm
I AM BACK!!! I HAVE ESCAPED THE EVIL RABID RAVENOUS BUNNIES!!!! 😀
Dragonrider: The tree still makes a sound. The soundwaves are there, and nothing can make them not be, unless the tree is prevented from falling. Like, if someone wispers so softly that you cannot hear it, the wisper, and so the sound, is still there.
Dark Lord: I realize that both carbon dating and lightyears may convince you that there is no God, but not I. I have been brought up in Faith, and I hope that I always am in it. You can call it stubborness, but I believe and hope to, always.
Raier Morphious: Nice theories! I hope they all happen, but I hope we don’t read about the…erm…events, other than M being freed. Like, in an epiloge, Saphira and Thorn are teaching their hatchlings to fight and stuff, and Eragon and Arya’s children are their riders, or something.
I shall now repeat my most sacred vow so that Booklover stops spouting untruths.
brom is eragon’s father. i hope to not repeat myself, and i really hope that when this is all over, i will have the strength NOT to say “i toldja so.”
hahahahahahahaha…..
and now for the best part…POEM TIME!!!

kk, here’s the start…enjoy!!!
*************************************************************
~NOTE~
I’m pretending that I have somehow been zapped into Artemis Fowl one, after Artemis has given Juliet the instructions for Holly’s cell. This means that I know everything in all the books, but nothing has happened yet (to Artemis and Butler and all the rest), except everything before and up to Holly’s cell having been prepared.
I am walking down a street when I see a young, pale boy with jet-black hair standing next to a very tall, very dangerous-looking man. My brain screams at me to run. My brain says that they are trouble. My heart says otherwise, and moves my feet towards them, against my conscious will. I reach them, and know who they are. I speak.
“Hello. You look so familiar. Do I know you?”
“No. Of course not. You have never seen me before-Butler, my ah…butler, would never have allowed a common girl to get close enough to me to see me.” The boy is frowning, and I can tell that the pale youth is annoyed that I have gotten close enough to talk to him.
“Butler?” I repeat like an idiot, even though I knew who he is before the boy spoke. I don’t believe that it is them yet.
“Yes, Butler. Can’t you hear?” The youth is almost angry now.
“But…I know Butler.” I am still a little skeptical, and more than a little wary, but I can tell that I am almost won over.
“What? Butler, is this…child an acquaintance of yours?”
“No, sir.”
The youth frowns deeply. “Very well, then she lies. Dispatch her.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Wait!” I am thinking fast, trying to save my life, but I am also puzzled. Artemis is supposed to be nice after the events in The Lost Colony. “If I tell you something that surprises you…I want you to let me live.”
“Hmm…what do you think could surprise me? I am-”
I cut him off. “I know who you are! Both of you! You are Artemis Fowl the Second, son of Artemis Fowl the First, and part of the Fowl dynasty that has been run from the Fowl estate in Ireland for centuries!” I turn to Butler.
“And you, Butler, are Domovoi Butler, one of the famous Butlers. You have a little sister named Juliet and helped Artemis since he was born. And…”
I feel a sharp pain in my neck and collapse.

AH! That was an EXCELLENT FANFIC! It makes me want to keep READING MORE! I am trying to write a successful Fanfic. It hasn’t happened yet!
Dwarves are totally suckish compared to elves… just had to say that.
I am SO excited for Artemis Fowl: THE TIME PARADOX! IT looks so good! WHAT COULD BE BETTER THEN ARTEMIS BEING HIS OWN ENEMY! The best enemy of Artemis, is truly himself, and so this book will have the PERFECT PLOT LINE! I am so excited!!
Ummm. God, Faith, Relgion and Science can all comingle. perhaps God created the earth and used scientifically proven knowledge to do it. Ya know? I totally believe in God, I have complete faith in my religion, but I do believe that science is all perfectly logical and God could have used Science to create the earth and all else. The Bible doesn’t say HOW God created the earth, just that he did and he did it in six days. Who knows if the sense of time and days was the same in that time? Perhaps it is a metaphor or something. I just can’t believe that there is no God, no Afterlife, and etc. It is what I believe and I will always believe it. Savvy folks? I am not attacking any of your beliefs. I am just putting my personal opinions up for discussion! 🙂
ok, i have to go now. bye!

Yay!! I’m so glad u like the beginning! More to follow!
Plus, that is what I believe. God made the world, and everything in it, including science. So what I am trying to say is that SCIENCE follows GOD, not the other way around. If science is being used to dissolve the “theory” of God, then either we have something wrong or there is more to the science.

Chapter 1
The Meeting
I am walking down a street when I see a young, pale boy with jet-black hair standing next to a very tall, very dangerous-looking man. My brain screams at me to run. My brain says that they are trouble. My heart says otherwise, and moves my feet towards them, against my conscious will. I reach them, and know who they are. I speak.

“You, Butler, are Domovoi Butler, one of the famous Butlers. You have a little sister named Juliet and have protected Artemis since he was born. And…”
I feel a sharp pain in my neck and collapse.
~
I wake up in a room that is familiar to me. I haven’t ever seen it, but my imagination is very good, so I know where I am.
I get off the cot and walk across the concrete floor, trying not to notice my sudden fear that the concrete walls will suffocate me. I try the door, but it is locked. I walk back over to the cot and sit down, suddenly shaky. What happened?
Then I remember. The boy. I take a deep breath. Of course it’s not them, I chide myself. Just as this is not the room that once held Holly Short.
A small voice in my mind says that I am wrong, that those people WERE Dovomoi Butler and Artemis Fowl the Second.
I argue with myself, pacing the room. If those people were them, they would have been kind. I have read all the books, after all…but I should have known that they couldn’t be here, in the real world. I was stupid, and now I have been kidnapped by strangers who think that I’m crazy. Plus, as long as I am on a roll, I might as well say that I might die and I will probably never see home again or my parents and…and…
I throw myself on the cot, tears leaking through my eyelids.
Artemis watched the strange girl cry silently on the cot. He was not, of course, in the room, but watching through the camera mounted on the wall inside. Of course it was not enough that this girl had known his name at all, she had to find him just before he went fairy hunting, he fumed. She also knew, or claimed to know, Butler. Although Artemis doubted that Domovoi was Butler’s first name, he was unsettled that the girl had known him own. Yes, Artemis decided, it is time to have a little chat with our new guest.
I hear the door handle turn. I am so startled that I almost scream, but I suppress the urge. Instead, I roll over so that my back is to the door.
“I know that you’re awake,” says a voice. The voice of Artemi-don’t think that name, it isn’t him, I scream to myself. I brush tears from my eyes and roll over so that I’m facing the door.
I sit up, glaring at the boy framed in the doorway. “Why am I here? Why did you kidnap me?” I am trying to supress the fear in my voice, but I know that it isn’t working.
“Because,” the boy says, “ you have an uncommon knowledge about me, and I know nothing about you. For all I know, you are an enemy. I brought you here for questioning. If you can prove your innocence to me, you will be flown back to the United States with my apologies. If not…” He trailed off, but the meaning was clear.
“You’re not the Artemis I know,” I mutter, looking down. I know full well that I should just shut up.
“Something changed you. Was it the shock of the twins? Just because you have siblings now does not mean that you can be horrid again!” Without realizing it, I am looking up again and have begun shouting. A dim voice in my head says that I shouldn’t be angry-why should Artemis Fowl have heard of me?
“ ‘The Artemis I know’?” says the boy sharply. “ ‘Twins’?”
“Yes, and don’t act stupid, it won’t work. I know about you, Butler, Holly, Minerva, and…” I swallow, remembering. “ And Commander Root. I know all about all of it, so you needn’t be secretive with me, Artemis Fowl!”
“I do not understand. How do you know about Butler and myself, first of all, and who are the…others? And another thing. I feel that this…Commander Root, especially, is important, somehow. Explain.”
I sit there, stunned. What does this mean? He could be faking, trying to protect the People. But he seems to be genuinely puzzled…or, as puzzled as Artemis Fowl can be.
Either way, I cannot stay here. If Artemis is trying to protect the fairies, he could notify them that I know of them whenever he wants, and I could be mind wiped, which I definitely don’t want. If this is just someone who looks, sounds, and acts like Artemis…I am in sooo much trouble.
The boy was still there, waiting. I had to say something.

OK! This whole thing is basically written to Brom so…ya!
OK FIRST: You put the God in relation with Science SO WELL! I just wanted to congratulate you on an excellent description of what IS!
SECOND: YOUR FANFIC ABSOLUTELY ROX! It is so good so far! I just have to say, that I love Artemis. He is absolutely amazing!!! Your fanfic so far is SO good!!! I AM LOVING IT! KEEP WRITING MORE ON HERE!!
Third: MUSKETEERS ROCK!!!
Oh, ya, sidenote. I am reading/watching R & J right now. I love the 60’s movie, the 90’s version is just STUPID and RETARDED! But, I think Romeo and Juliet is a cute and adorable tragedy that I would like 10x as much if it WEREN’T a tragedy. 🙂
Do you guys like Alvin and the Chipmunks (music and movie) I DO! I LOVE THEM> That was my random thought of the day.
OK I (as shocking as this is JK) need some advice. So, here’s the story:
There is a really creepy kid (we’ll just call him Stuart) at my school who has liked me since last year. He frequently walks with me in the halls and to and from seminary though I do my best to avoid him. Now, Next friday there is a dance at my school that I want to go to. HE is going as well and today asked/said that we should dance at the dance and me (not having a CLUE what to do) was evasive and brusquely said “maybe” YEAH RIGHT! I CAN’T DO IT! So…here are my choices that I have thought of.
1) I don’t go to the dance (not likely)
2) I go and just totally avoid him at all costs
3) I go and if I happen to see him approaching me i quickly ask another guy to dance with me so he can’t
4) I just dance with him, though that may make me pass out.
5) Just say NO.
I know, I am way too nice 😦 Anyways, I am just curious what you guys think that I should do… Haha, this is such an immature problem, but ya…so, yup!
Ok, there was something else i was going to say…..what was it……hmmmm. I can’t remember. If i do, i’ll post it.

Dragonrider since the kid is creepy if it was me i’d say NO! but that’s just me, seeing as i have no idea about the situation it’d be better to ignore my advice.
Below is the prologue to my book called Reckoning, now the entire series is about this one event and revolves around it, so does what’s written below grab your attention and interest? Any response would be most appreciated, I think it works.
________________________________________________________________________
Prologue -Destiny
Arom stood motionless as a cold shadow fell upon him, the shadow came from a small volcanic moon in orbit of an eerie and desolate planet on the outskirts of the galaxy. Arom looked out the window into the nothingness of space his destination was one that had brought ruin to his life. Arom was an Avatar a highly advanced evolution of human, they had once been the most powerful species in the known universe but that had changed. But Arom an incredibly intelligent scientist intended to alter the past and save the future. To do this he had created a device to create a rift in space-time and travel through the ages, but now all his hopes came to this one event. He had pieced everything back to this one place this exact point in time, the origin of all that had gone wrong. Arom stood in the bridge of a battle cruiser, his battle cruiser the Emperor the vessel he would use to destroy the planet Ataris and save the future. Arom knew everything would change he didn’t know what the future would become but he knew it would be better than what it was now.

April 1, 2008 at 1:08 am
Dark Lord: REALLY GOOD! I, personally, would just add a little more detail as far as his surroundings and like general information, if that makes sense. It sounds like a sci-fi, Am I right? (I really like sci-fi’s along with fantasies and realistic fiction)
Book Lover: Of course not! I, personally, really appreciate it, cuz otherwise I would not even know when it was coming out let alone how many months/days until!!! I really do like the countdown…
April 1, 2008 at 1:51 am
Book Lover i like your countdown, shame on you dr! (jks)
Thanks for the comment. It’s meant to be as brief as possible, the events of that day are later revealed as a major revelation in the story, everything about the prologue is meant to be an enigma. I wish i could reveal more about it but i decided a long time ago that what happened if he succeeded, the consequences and eventually a paradox situation would remain a mystery until the very end of the series. Still even with this explanation if more detail is needed in the prologue then i’ll add it.
It’s sci-fi, that particular character spends a lot of time travelling through time trying to fix mistakes, mistakes that really aren’t the responsibility of one man. I find his story to be very sad, but of course i’m biased. The story is actually about five different main character who all have different stories but they are all interwined.

That’s cool about Einstein…I didn’t know his religion before.

Dark Lord: Why don’t you read fanfictions? (I am just curious cuz i love them. I read them, I write them, I am almost obsessed with them as I am with my fav. tv show ((which I write many of my fanfics about)) Just a guess…is it because you don’t want it to interfere with your perception of the real story? cuz’ i would understand that. I would also understand if it was because there are so many phsycos in the world that put retarded freak crap in their fanfics (I avoid those as much as possible) anyways. And, your story seems really well thought out so far. It doesn’t need more detail, and if that is the way you planned it (for it to be like really mysterious, ya know?) then that is how you should do it. It is YOUR story!
BROM! YOU HAVE RETURNED! I FEARED THE MAN-EATING CHIPMUNKS HAD DEVOURED YOU!!! Please do post more of your fanfic! I’ll READ IT!
ok, i really would write more to you all, but i just did 4 hours worth of math, science, world geography, and didn’t even bother with spanish and so my brain is pretty much dead. It is like a motor. it has been run too hard, too long, and now it is going to catch on fire if i have to think anything more difficult then normal human functioning. (it really is a shame that i am going to go write on…YES A FANFICTION! cuz i entered the first ch of one on the internet (fanfiction.net, great place!) and people are waiting for the second. It is like having a real deadline! Good practice for aspiring writers…so yup…
ps i am a modern day musketeer. fear me and my ROCKING fencing skills!!!!

love the books- YAY ur back!!!
I GOT A PUPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sry i’m just so excited about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 5, 2008 at 1:12 am
ebrithill:hi:-)
book lover: what kind of puppy did u get?
April 5, 2008 at 1:36 am
dragonrider…i know im rlly late but if the kid knows…that u know……that he likes u..i would just tell him at the dance that ur not interested or…u could try 2 get him 2 like someone else..i did that with a guy who liked me .im bad at giving advice but i just thought i would say that.
April 5, 2008 at 8:13 am
Yeah i don’t read fan-fics so i don’t ruin the real story, and because some are shockingly bad. I’d want to think my story is well thought out i’ve been working on it for 4 years now, i’ve finally completed the plot and the first three chapters.
I don’t think i’ll have a look at that Harry Potter clip, Snape was my favourite character even before the hole tragic hero reveal.
Booklover a puppy? Is it cute? I used to have a phobia of dogs.
…People live their lives bound by what they accept as correct and true. That’s how they define “reality.” But what does it mean to be “correct” or “true?” Merely vague concepts…their “reality” may all be a mirage. Can we consider them to simply be living in their own world, shaped by their own beliefs?

April 5, 2008 at 2:37 pm
A phobia of dogs? you’d have hated my house! I suppose that a poorly written fanfiction can do damage to a book/show/whatever. I have learned to pick out the good ones though.
Lovethebooks: HOORAY FOR YOUR RETURN! Where’ve ya been for so long?
ebrithill: HEY!
I love it when old friends come back to say hello! 😀
Anyways. I have to go though. I think i might go to yoga with my mom, but i don’t really want to…grrrr.
btw, i successfully avoided dancing with said creepy kid at the dance. He asked me at the begginning of the dance and i said i didn’t feel like it ( a lie ). then on the very LAST dance, he was looking for me, so I grabbed a friend of mine and asked HIM to dance with me. That, at least, wasn’t awkward cuz we just talked about school and stuff like that. It was SO close though. I thought I was gonna die.
Now. I really must nees go and either 1) go to yoga or 2) write on my own fanfiction. 🙂
talk to ya all later.
April 5, 2008 at 2:50 pm
this is a weird question.do u guys ever wish u could like live in the book eragon and eldest……..like u wish there could b magic and dragons and stuff..idk i feel like that alot when i read the books..mabey im just crazy
April 6, 2008 at 12:12 am

book lover~ ok good bc i thought i was like crazy.argg every time i read the books i dont want 2 stop and come back into the real world its like part of me is still in the book.lol
April 7, 2008 at 5:09 am
first of all brom is not i repeat not eragons father. for one reason in the ending of the last book…we all no mutragh is son to morzan and his mother died….well at the end of eldest on page 652 it says “besides Zar’roc should have gone to morzarn’s eldest son, not his youngest. it is mine by right of birth.” then he goes on to talk about how they are related…duh read the book you’ll see…
April 7, 2008 at 7:27 am
It’s still open to opinion, and as revealed in the book that you recommend we read it is possible to lie if you believe what you’re saying is the truth it’s also possible to tells half truth’s and so on. Murtagh believes they are both the sons of Morzan, however their are clues hidden within the book that suggest otherwise, some of them aren’t even hidden, what you have posted is hardly proof.
I’m pretty sure the following applies to you shadow Bloodwolf Kross…

lovethebooks- cool, i have that feeling in like all the books i read.
shadow Bloodwolf Kross – YES i totally agree!!!!!!!!!!! maybe u could get these people to c the truth!!! they don’t lisen to me when i tell them, even though its like a kazillion times!!!
April 7, 2008 at 2:01 pm
idk……..the only problem with this theory is that in the eldest book it says that eragons father went 2 Ellesméra. why would Morzan go 2 Ellesmera?that part doesnt really make sense. and also the crow in Ellesmera knew eragons father. so idk its possible that morzan is his father.but its also possible otherwise.
April 7, 2008 at 2:03 pm
idk..i dont really think that brom or morzan are eragons fathers. i think there might be another character revealed in the 3 book
April 8, 2008 at 3:06 pm
found this site
think it might be helpful
http://coreysbooktalk.blogspot.com/2006/06/eragon-book-three-predictions.html
April 9, 2008 at 2:33 am
Morzan was trained in Ellesmera with the elves. He didn’t start out bad, he just mad the very foolish decision to follow Galbatorix when he went insane, which led to him BEING bad. I love that we are actually talking about eragon and eldest again.
Perhaps another character could be thrown in to the mix. And the possibility for a human rider (for those who support Roran) is also possible now. The reason I doubted the theory that Roran would be a rider before is because it would have been practically impossible to give him the training and etc. necessary to be helpful in just one book…but now there are going to be four in the series soo…I still think it will be Arya. There is plenty of foreshadowing of that, and of Brom being eragon’s father as well. This book is very complex and has a lot of little details that could lead to importnat matters in the later books.
Also, shadow bloodwolf kross: You don’t even know what you’re talking about. YOU read the book again. We are proffessionals! (mmhmm!)
Book Lover: Do you ever feel like you are alone in the world? (just kidding. I just admire that you stick to your opinions so much…)
Anyways. Ok. I have to go now….c u l8r!
ps GO MUSKETEERS!!!

BUT YES! IT IS FINALLY….AFTER ALL OF THESE DAYS OF SCHOOL!!! IT IS FINALLY……………SPRING BREAK 8) too bad it is freaking cold. 😥 That kind of puts a damper on things. But, that can’t ruin my mood! 🙂 I AM HAPPY 😀 I HAVE NO SCHOOL FOR NINE DAYS 😆 I am going insane from happiness!
Oh no. I can hear movement upsatirs. that means somebody else in my family has woken up to attempt to ruin my day. GRRR 😡 I WON’T LET THEM!
Ah. Ok, I have to go now though. I need to update my story, or else people will get bored with it, and if that happens, my future as a famous fanfictionist will disappear. 😉
K bye!

April 12, 2008 at 1:52 pm
Alright. Look! NOW my name is ORANGE! I put my fanfiction profile on it. So if anyone wants to see what it looks like, you can. But beware…the only reason I am on fanfiction is because i write fictions about JAPANESE ANIME AND MANGA! I am obsessed with it. Ok? So, if you don’t like to think of the amazing DR as a cartoon lover, then don’t go. It might change your opinion of me. I am totally wierd, totally unique, and I am not afraid to tell people my opinions in most situations. So…anyways, that was a really shortish-longish paragraph about nothing applying to this site. I was jsut having fun, but hey. If I can’t be myself (even on a website) then I can’t have fun. This is just me!

I’m going to do a new thing with my sig where i simply post a different bit of my story with every post.

I’m back! Sorry, I spend most of my time doing #1) School work (tonz and tonz. I hate May) and then whenever I am not doing that, I am practicing my violin/piano or writing my stories. Its consuming my life. *hangs head shamefully* BUT I LOVE IT SO ITS OK! Oh well, I want to be an author, so this is good practice for me…or an archeologist! My brothers play Mech Assault. Essentially, its slow and boring. I play much more entertaining games like HalfLife2 and Portal, but even those, its like a once a month type thing. I prefer to do things more productive like reading, and talking to people like you guys. Yup, that is my productive life! Wow. I don’t have a life. JK, I have an awesome life. i luv every second of it!

May 8, 2008 at 11:17 pm
Tell him. Well…is he cute? If he isn’t, either 1) tell him. 2) Be polite, but brusque and kind of ignore/brush him off whenever he’s around (that’s what I do…i have like 4 admirers, one of which is 3 years younger then me. GROSS) 3) If he’s cute, then it doesn’t really matter. Just tell him, if he is a type of guy that you find it easy-ish to talk to. If not, then just try to last out the last month of school.

That is my tragic, tragic incident.
That evil evil saying! EVIL! Its a LIE! You know, deep down, that I am right. Just wait and see! 🙂

May 17, 2008 at 3:46 am
Book Lover – s’ok i dont really have to many perdictions want it more to be a surprise so im not upset if something doesnt go my way anyways who do you think is Eragons dad if its not Brom?
May 19, 2008 at 12:54 am
She thinks that its Morzan!!! AGH! Don’t let her corrupt your opinion! YOU are right. Brom, not Morzan, is Eragon’s father. NOT MORZAN! Galbatorix lied, and Murtagh was mistaken. He doesn’t know! The Crow’s riddle tells everything! It’s so obvious!
Book Lover, I think you just want to be rebellious, because everyone knows its Brom, so you are going against the crowd. BTW, I hope you did good on your concert, I have a orch. concert on tuesday and we are playing a bunch of really fast, really hard music that requires we go into 5th position. Not. Fun. *rolls eyes* but, I think it’ll be ok.
I want to see Caspian, but I haven’t gotten the chance yet. Did you like it??? (don’t tell me anything!!!)
PS #49, we’re happy that you didn’t leave! Most people post once and never come back. Its quite sad.
Brom: Eragon…I am your father…
Eragon: YAY! Wait, why didn’t you just tell me before?
Brom: Because that would have made your life too simple. Fantasy is never simple. It is utterly and completely complex, and it usually makes no sense.
Eragon: But you couldn’t have given me a hint?
Brom: There are tons of clues, you dunce. Why don’t you just look around you! The Crow told you everything you need to know! It’s like a puzzle, Just do it, and then you will have your answers.
Eragon: Now where is that crow…
DR: BYE FOR NOW GUYS!

Caspians rly good, and Peter and CAspian r rly attractice looking!!!! but yeah it dosen’t follow the book at all. its a rly good movie though.
the concert went ok, i messed up like a kazillion time. i don’t think it was too noticable though. what do u play?? good luck at ur concert though 😀
May 20, 2008 at 1:07 am

Book Lover, there is no chaning your mind about Morzan, is there? Going for the obvious route…doing what the book says…how sad. Can’t a fan dream???
I’m sure u did fine on your concert. I play the violin, and the piano, but it was a violin orchestra concert. It went really well! I had fun with it, though I did mess up a bit.
Haven’t seen it yet, but from the commercials, Caspian is spicy hot…I really don’t know about Peter though!

June 2, 2008 at 7:14 pm
OH MY! You poor poor people! What is wrong with your schools???I got out four days ago! I’m already on my summer break….are you serious? Is my school the only one who is already out? But my entire district got out last week…odd.
I luvs my computer, (I named him Freddie, odd? Yes. Do I care? No). ^^ I spend too much time on the computer, and I’m trying to cut back on my computer spending time for the sake of my parents (specifically my dad). I’m really busy though, hence my frequent absences. SORRY!
Lovethebooks: That is really a dumb project. I had a hard time giving a pp project on Houdini to my class. I also did one on Ancient Egypt, but since that is like, my favorite thing ever, that one was fun.
#49: Exams…*shivers* I HATE testing. Its evil, awful, despicable, hateful, infernal, retarded, suckish, and many other descriptive words. ^^
I love music…I’m listening to music right now…what kind of music do you guys like? I like Kelly Clarkson, Nickelback, Green Day, Linkin Park, Rascal Flatts, Evanescence, Vanessa Carlton, Cascada, Panic at the Disco, Secondhand Serenade….and lots more. I like a lot! But I really really don’t like 80’s music…yuck. 90’s and on only!!! But…I do like Michael Jackson. LONG LIVE THRILLER!
anyways, i’m so random its disgusting!!! Ok, g2g for now, I have to check on my online high school classes… u_u, though school has ended, the torture doesn’t stop.

And what did they do, revamp the site? What is with the (forgive me for stealing your words, Doctor…) scribble monsters?
Where is everybody, anyway?
Before I go; I shut my finger in a recliner (don’t ask) so my typing (or lack of) is whomped.
Oh, and Jarred? I do faintly (forgive me…) remember you. Welcome back.

P.S welcome back Knight of the Book-Covered Table im new here, came on a couple of weeks ago but whatever !Welcome Back!
June 14, 2008 at 4:04 am
yeh welcome back i think i remember you from a long time ago before i died from assignments for months.
We could guess whats going to happen in book 3 but i think thats all been done on the shurtagl site, which somebody nasuada i think copied into the chat way back up the top, and i wish i didnt read it because now im not going to be as surprised when the book comes out so yeh iunno about you guys.
If we’re going to talk about other things…what things?
besides the weather of course, down here its fine and cool in act in australia at least.
yeh i reckon when the 3rd book comes out i’ll read it like 10 times straight. unless its really bad, because yeh. but it wont be it’ll be awesome.
where did kate and the other guy go cos they were cool, like u know the people who always talked about grammar? oh yeh john was his name. anyway ttyl
June 14, 2008 at 3:11 pm
ya im not sure whats gonna happen in the third book. but i think i heard something about him splitting the 3rd book unto 2 different books because the content will be to big to put into one book..so anywayz

Wow! Comment party!
Firstly, Thank You to #49 and jarred. Nice to know that people pay attention to this site still, right?
Speaking of which…where is Dragonrider?
Jarred: 1)We can talk about anything. Seriously. Randomness comes with Fandomness.
2)I’m gonna read Brisingr a lot, too. Can’t wait!
3)I liked John, but I’m not sure about Katie
Lovethebooks: Yea. The third book=two books now.
Book Lover: Of course The Princess Bride is awesome. Helooo, Westly and Inigo? 😀
Also…poor Jeff the apple.
Long live fantasy!

Well…if I HAD to choose one scene…right now, it’s probably the wall scene where Inigo and Fezzik revive Westly and he kinda freaks out. 😀
About the Jeff-eating friend: Don’t let him forget.
You JUST GOT OUT OF SCHOOL? Wtf (excuse me)? I’ve been out for AGES.
Long live fantasy!

P.S.~shame on you for forgetting the countdown! jk. 😀
June 17, 2008 at 11:37 pm
oh my. i’m currently obsessed with other sites. is my participation on here enjoyed? Because if it’s not i’m only gonna be coming in every once in a probably very long while. if you like my company i’ll hang around though.
Brom~ NICE TO SEE YOU BACK! I missed you tonzez! I’ve been out of school for ages also. Ages and ages. LIKE FOREVER!
Its so hot here…i live like a hermit in my basement because its too hot.
June 18, 2008 at 10:03 am
hmm why does this jeff apple have a name? Apples are meant to be eaten :P. They grow rotten and die if you dont eat them. They want to be eaten haha :).
princess bride rules :D.
dragonrider ur participation on here is enjoyed. Pls hang around.
i’m still in school lol. how many weeks of school and holiday do you people get where u come from? cos here we get 40 school, the rest (16?) holidays. At least thats in yr 10, im not sure if its the same system.
yeh the book is 2 books now, brisingr has a gold dragon and then i guess the last one is probably going to be green with the last dragon. again i ask incase somebody didnt notice last time, what is the release date for brisingr?
this comment is getting long and there seems to be a few things being talked about currently but if anyone gets bored, then i have a question we could discuss or comment on: what are your views on religion, christianity, how the earth was created or how long it took for the world to be created? comment if you want or if u’d rather not then thats fine as well :).
anyway im off..see u later 🙂

Jarred: Brisinger release date = September 20 2008
I’m a Christian. Not just because my parents are, either; the more I look at our views and science, the more I see that some science is flawed and that any science that isn’t flawed adheres to God and Christianity.
~_~
Book Lover: Yea, I like the sword fight scene, too. Especially the witty banter.
I changed my mind; the WHOLE MOVIE is my favorite part! 😀 🙂

Jarred (again): Yes, God rules
Yes, Inigo is incredible.

I’ve talked about this (religion) before, either on this site or on the other littledailyprophet Eragon forum site that I was on before ok I’m rambling. I’m a Latter Day Saint (Mormon), I believe in the Bible and the Book of Mormon, and I believe that the world was created as the Bible says, but I believe that God’s ‘days’ and ours are different so it didn’t take six 24hr days to create the world, but rather took six of God’s days to create the world. Did that make any sense to anyone?

sry bout carrying on, it was just awesome, have i made my point???
June 24, 2008 at 3:42 am
I just read the best book! It was called Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson and it was AMAZING! It’s a series and I’m trying to get my hands on the second one. Sorry, but it’s better then Eragon…I think it might even be better then Twilight *Hides shamefully from twilight fans*. It’s just so much more…mature then Twilight. The descriptions are amazing and the plot is…wow, it’s just great. I loved it, and I definitely recommend it as an AWESOME read.

Before I start responding to everyone…those d*** smileys are trying to take over the world that rightfully belongs to Bunny.
DragonRider: Hooray for the Twilight series! Yes, I like the chess-cover of Breaking Dawn. Pardon my total airhead fangirlishnes, but EEEEK! It is sooo exciting!
Brisinger: No clue.
Book Lover: How did you escape the book? Did you find a map? 😉
DragonRider (again) : Shame on you for thinking that ANYTHING could be better than Twilight! JK. 😉
No shame for thinking that it is better than Inheritance, tho…I think quite a few series are better than Inheritance right now. Some are:
Harry Potter (J.K. Rowling) (duh)
Artemis Fowl (Eoin Colfer)
Narnia (C.S. Lewis)
The Enchanted Forest Chronicles (Patricia Wrede)
Well, I better go. Maybe I’ll try Mistborn. And don’t forget, everybody…

June 25, 2008 at 1:09 pm
hey ppl havent been on in ages sorry. hey do you guys ever say lol or rofl or soz in real life by accident? not saying i do ;).
ah thankyou everyone for the release date :). so long away :(.
hmm i havent read twilight thingo or the really mature book but they sorta sound like girl books no offence so yeh oh well.
As you probably guessed im a christian, i believe in God, i recently looked into how old the earth is, because the bible doesnt actually say the days were literal, even though its complicated, but i think God created the world within 6 days.
i think if eragon gets the sword from under the menoa tree, which he probably will, it will most likely be blue. but of course nobody knows.
hmm yeh where is dark lord :S
anyway better go do some more assignment 😦 . bleah.

A question for you religious people how can you believe the earth is thousands of years old when evidence has proven otherwise? Not having a go just want to know.

Dark Lord: You mean it’s YOUNGER? 😉
I personally believe that a lot of our ‘science’ is flawed. Seriously, I think that if a well-known scientist said that the grass is really pink with red polka-dots and had some scientific-sounding jargon to ‘back it up’, some people might believe him!

dark lord- If it’s true why do they always change there mind? Actualy thousands of years makes more sense then billions. think about it. the earth, in reality is only about 6 thousand years.
knight- almst all “sciene” is flawed. and people are stupid, no offence, but they are. Your right, you could say the sky’s pink, and the clounds are blue, and make up some evidence, and they’ll likely to believe it. that doesn’t mean it’s true though.

Thousands of years makes no sense when dinosaurs lived millions of years ago, i will not explain why this is irrefutable fact.
lol Book Lover those comments show a complete nonunderstanding of what science is, if something can be disproved it can never become fact, after all possible attempts to disprove something then science will try to prove that it is right, if it can’t it remains what is known as a theory, through this process it is almost impossible to prove anything and when it has been proved say the earth being way older than thousands of years it is irrefutable fact. Science flaw is that it is too cautious and meticulous. The argument you could find evidence to prove the sky is pink is utter rubbish, anyone who knows anything about science would laugh then begin talking about perspective and relativity and thus prove the statement relatively and theoretically true 😉 (please don’t comment about the sky pink if you don’t understand what the afterwords mean)

Book Lover can’t say i’m happy about your nonunderstanding of science, though verry happy about the people are stupid comment, so very true. Did you know God (if real) is supposed to have omniscience, of course this brings up an obvious paradox.
There are ten types of people in this world those who understand binary and those who don’t… (love this joke by the way)

hey everyone havent posted for a while, but i’ve finished my assignments and holidays start tomorrow 😀 im pumped.
everybodys saying happy birthday 40 so i will join them: happy birthday.\
okay this may get long, but try and keep up.
i believe its important that the misconception about the age of the earth is cleared up, because science and christianity do not disagree. The scientists count of the christians to say what the bible says about the age of the earth, likewise the christians count on the scientists to say what the earth says about the age of the earth.
Some ground rules to establish: THe bible is perfectly true and God written, and there is no wrong things in it. The earth: which god created, has no contradictory evidence, and no faulse evidence.
WHat happens is, people MISinterpret the bible, and scientists MISenterpret the earthe because we are human: wheareas both the bible and the universe are perfectly true.
with this in mind, we must go by first the bible, but also not disregard what the earth, that we can see, says.
In the instace of the age of the earth: The bible does not actually say 6 literal days, although it is the plainest reading of the text. Because the bible is not firm on the matter, it is not incorrect to use the earth to determine how old it is.
Christians, if scientists say that the earth is millions of years old, and the bible does not disagree, but only the plainest reading of the bible disagrees, then we should look into it for ourselves.
The bible does not say the earth is 6 days old because the word day has many meanings in those contexts, and even in modern day context, such as “every dog has his day”. God would obviously not decieve us on purpose, but he does put stumbling blocks in our path so we have to try to believe him, and only them that really want to will find him. an example of this happening was when Jesus spoke to the people in parables. It was so they would be “seeing but not percieving, hearing but not understand” basiacally meaning that only those who really wanted to would find the way to him.
Have you guys heard of the verse that says “the lion will lie down with the lamb?” or did you guys think that delilah cut sampsons hair? actaully she didnt, and that verse doesnt exist. Ask if you want more info. WHat that shows is that popular stories that are man’s interpretation of the bible are passed down, and we accept as fact, even though the bible does not literally say it. So maybe the plainest reading of the text in the bible that says “the first day, the second day” and so on, needs to be looked into, and the earth which is God given perfect evidence, should not be disregarded.
Im not actually sure what i believe about the age of the earth at the moment, and im open to point of views, im still trying to research every point of view on the subject, but the purpose and important thing is, God and science dont disagree, and christians need to understand this so scientists will listen to them more, and also we need to know that it doesnt matter: God has proven that He exists and He could have made the earth in 6 seconds if He wanted to.
With the science debate i think science is a good idea in theory, and scientists are not stupid, but smart. The only thing with science is that it should never be taken as fact, because nothing is proven, which you guys know.
Dark Lord im not attacking you but i disagree with your opinion that good and evil are illusions and that right and wrong are a matter of perspective, even to an extent.
July 3, 2008 at 11:46 am
oh and also, i agree people in general are pretty stupid 🙂 but what i meant was that scientists are smarter in the areas of the world’s evidence about how old the earth is than most humans who arent actually educated (i am not claiming to be one of these educated people).
One question Dark Lord: What is the obvious paradox that God’s imniscience brings up? again not attacking to clarify.

Polluting the oceans? Bad for everybody, no illusion.
Cleaning the oceans? Good for everybody, no illusion.

God? Good. Right.
July 3, 2008 at 5:26 pm
Knight, and jarred notice i used the word perspective, good and evil are extremes of right and wrong, i didn’t say good and evil aren’t true just illusions. I then said right and wrong are true but that is determined by your perspective, i’m pretty much saying that right and wrong good and evil is seen differently from every person. What i did was a deceptive use of word play, fooled both of you 🙂
I believe one of the reason why most scientist disregard the opinions of religious peoples is because they state interpretations of the bible as facts and disregard what science has proven. And yes science has proved many things disproved a million fold more than has been proven, but what does get proved goes through meticulous measures and i can be 100% certain that what is proven as fact is correct. Now science hasn’t proven the bible wrong or disproved it. All that i can say is the whole age of the earth has been proven to be way older than the general interpretations from the bible.
I’ll let you figure out the paradox… (its actually better if you try to figure it out for yourself)

jarred- u r such an IDIOT!!!!!!!! when the Bible says a day, what the heck do u think it means??? yes one day is = too a thousand years!!!!!!!!! NO! a day meaning, the sun comes up, then goes down then comes up again!!! what we call a day today!!!!! i didn’t even bother reading the rest of your post, if you can’t understand that simple thing.
for the rest of u argueing about my thinking the earth to be only 6 thousand years old, if you believe the Bible, as you should for it is true every word, then if you make a time line of all the ages of people in the Bible you will find, that it comes to about 6 thousand years, and NOT 4.6 billion.
this arguement isn’t really going to get anywhere, so lets just drop it! i’m NEVER going to change my opinion on the age of the earth, and/or my other theriors on the Bible and the world today. so get over it and DROP THE SUBJECT!!!!!!!!!!! please?
this is a forum to talk about ERAGON, ELDEST, BRISINGR, AND ANYTHING ELSE INHERIDANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i apoligize to all those to take up ur time having to be bothered on this subject, i had no intention of doing this, i’m very sorry.
July 3, 2008 at 7:29 pm
the dark lord- sciene had, actually, proven the bible wrong in many ways. like the way the earth was created, how old it is, how humans wer created, all the other living things on the earth. I mean think about it? the earth is WAY too complex to be just a random happending. it was created! there is no other reason that will EVER make sense! sciene has a theory that the earth is a happending of a “big bang” and we evolved from apes. that is contradictory to the Bible, thus proving it wrong.
also i know i don’t understand sciene, it’s impossible too. the scientist are always changing there minds. one day somethings someway then the next its the completly oppiste. How do they know what happend? where they there when the earth was created and the first living thing came to be? No, they weren’t, but God was, and he inspired men to write down what had happend.
sciene can’t be to cautious either, there is no such thing. it truth it is also impossible to be completly sure on something as the age of the earth. which coensides with what i said before, they weren’t there, they didn’t see how it came to be.
but i agree with you on the perspective thing, some people would say killing people is right, but you and i both know that its not right. It is all just a matter of perspective.
Btw Jarred- scientist have the same evidence any one else does, they might have more education then the rest of us, but so what??? do we need them to tell us that the sky is blue? any idiot could look up and see it’s blue. it’s all the way you look at the world.
oh and if any one wants to know where i get some of my idea’s like the age of the earth and God being all knowing, and most of my other ideas heres the site
http://www.answersingenesis.org/
just look around the site, and learn about the real truth!
and yet again, i apoligize to those who come here to talk about the inheridance series!
and yet again, we really should just drop this subject!!!
July 4, 2008 at 7:52 pm
OOPS! Guys, I don’t have time to read your many many posts.
And, on the subject of religion, each to his/her own. You guys, everyone has their own beliefs. Most people are not willing to change their beliefs, regardless of what others say. It is a very bad idea, and also a very RUDE one, to try and press your beliefs on anyone. Don’t ever accuse someone of being totally wrong. Don’t be prejudiced. It’s ok to give your opinion, and I don’t have a problem with people converting to other churches. (my church does it’s best to gain as many converts as possible) but only if they are willing to accept it. You can’t tell people they are wrong.
Science says that the world is billions of years old, and maybe it is. WE DON’T KNOW! Most people believe the Bible to be true, but then again, many people believe it is fiction. We each have our own faiths and our own beliefs. Just don’t be rude to someone because they disagree with you.
I agree that we should drop the subject.

Dark Lord: Maybe you got me, maybe not, but I still don’t understand…the hot summer sun has turned my brain into oatmeal.
Book Lover (and everyone else…, but especially BL): CALM DOWN, please. Yelling at people and/or insulting them is a BAD way to get people to see your point of view. In fact, it is probably the WORST way to go about anything.
And, Book Lover? We know that this is an Inheritance site. Which is why we are all here. The only reason that we don’t discuss Inheritance anymore is that we have pretty much gone over everything (and rehashed it a few thousand times…. 😉 ). It gets boring saying the same stuff over and over!
Which is what lead us to talk about religion to get a good discussion going, because I’m sure we all miss the stimulating debates that we used to have every day.
DragonRider: Same thing. Just a good debate amoungst site-mates.

July 7, 2008 at 12:55 am
Umm… i wasn’t attacking anyone’s beliefs just why they believed something that is contrary to known and understood fact. Just curious about why you believe what you believe, i’ll let anyone believe whatever they want even if i think they are wrong, all that i ask for that curtesy is to believe what i want and to ask questions. I live by that and really i think everyone should.
Book Lover you keep saying scientists are always changing there minds. This is true when talking about theories which are nothing more than elaborate ideas, but when it comes to fact, something that has been proven they don’t change their minds otherwise it wouldn’t be fact. You must keep in mind nearly all science is theory that’s why it seems like its always changing because well it is, as we learn and understand more. And yes science has proven certain statements in our current day translated copies of the bible that are based on interpretation of the old texts wrong, but that does not prove the bible wrong. Maybe in your eyes but not from a scientific perspective.
Knight maybe i didn’t explain it as well as possible. Actually i didn’t because right after the post i realised i could have written something that would explain it even to a complete moron with an IQ of 2, but i have forgetten it.
“Good and evil are illusions however there is right and wrong but it is all a matter of perspective…”
Now an illusion is something we think is real but is not, so by me calling good and evil illusions it appears i’m saying they are not real. I then followed that up with the paradoxical there is right and wrong. This is a contradiction as good and evil are the extremes of right and wrong and i have said one pairing is real and the other is an illusion. Now that’s all very confusing and doesn’t make any sense at all until you notice i mentioned perspective, which is the views based on the viewer. Relative to perspective an illusion means that the viewers views are wrong. I clearly stated right and wrong are simply a matter of perspective, which means it is clearly based on the individuals views. This means we can’t stereotype good and evil because that is different for every person, it seems i still haven’t explained how good and evil are illusions, but that wasn’t what the statement meant, it meant our views of good and evil are illusions. This is true because we base our views of good and evil on stereotypes. Of course i could of wrote this to be clear but i wanted to phrase to be quick and ambiguous, i also thought it up on the fly because i didnt have a clever quote to use.
I’ll demonstrate an interesting example of how good and evil is a matter of perspective, a man attacks an intruder that broke into his house, he was mearly trying to defend his family which were scared for their lives, this is good, no? Tragically he killed the intruder which was never his intention, now defending his family was the right thing to do, killing the intruder was not. Two opposites one good one evil. And to the grieving family of the intruder it all seems so very wrong. Right, wrong, good, evil it’s all really just a matter of perspective. No doubt the man viewed his actions as right, some will view it as wrong, but its all just perspective. If i were the man i’d do the same thing, but if i were the grieving family i’d think what happened was very wrong. How do you really say what is right and wrong?
I preordered my copy of Brisingr today, yay!

Dark Lord: I don’t mind you asking questions at all. And I think that everyone is completely entitled to their beliefs. I don’t agree with pressing anyone to change their mind and you should only believe what you want to. My last entry was mainly responding to Book Lover who seemed to be getting really irritated about someone saying something about religion. On the point of your intruder example, I completely agree. Good and Evil are totally a matter of perspective. It depends on which side you are on. Your perspective changes depending on where you stand in the situation.
On the note of science and religion. Yes, theories are ideas. Yes religion is based on faith, which doesn’t :always: agree with science. Yes religion often deals with miracles, but does no one think that Science and Religion can work together? What if God created the earth, but he did it by means that WORK scientifically? (I am not accusing anything/anyone. This is just an example) What if God used Evolution to create animals? I don’t believe that people were once primates, but people and primates ARE closely related. That has been scientifically proven. Isn’t it possible that science and religion can work together, though? It just seems to me that most people seem to think science and religion are totally opposite. I disagree. I mean, there are things in science that ARE facts. But I think that religion can work with those facts. Once again, isn’t it possible that God created the Big Bang which in turn created the Earth?
***Just thoughts, please don’t flame me! 😕 ***
On the note of Inheritance: NO! BROM *IS* ERAGON’S FATHER! THERE IS NO ARGUING THAT POINT! And, I also agree with Knight etc. etc. that we have discussed everything there is to be discussed ten times over. Honestly, I’m sick of it. I just want to read the book when it finally comes out.

July 9, 2008 at 5:21 am
hey everyone sorry i havent posted in so long
man theres a lot of comments…its going to take me ages to reply.
if everybody wants to drop the discussion im happy to, but i agree with those who said that we’ve gone over everything about inheritance, and we would probably be at a loss of what to talk aboutwith the religion, etc debate, just to establish something ecspecially to booklover: My priorities are to follow God: i believe in him and the bible first, science second. so when i start talking about how im thinking God might have possibly made the earth over a longer period of time than what people think about the bible, im not attacking you, so please dont attack me if anyone gives me a reason to think what im thinking about is non christian, i will disregard it.
with religion in general I disagree with the opinion that our views on religion should never be changed and i think you should listen to everything and everyone and use the evidence given to the you to make a decision, which is basiacally what people should do with everything in their life.
(WIth the evidence given me, i have come to a conclusion that God exists, but on this point im not planning to change my views. the evidence i have is that there must be God, how else would the world be created: something cannot come out of nothing, unless the creator is eternal. i can also feel him, i know that hes there and i know that when i pray it makes a difference.
Because the fact that i can feel he is there is such strong evidence to me, there is very little that could ever change my views on it.)
i think everyone is entitled to their own opinion and religion, and just because i think some of you are incorrect and i’ll try and change your mind if i can, it doesnt mean im not going to associate with you or that you are a stupid person or anything like that. You have a right to your own views.
I now understand what you were trying to say Dark Lord, or at least i think i do, and i agree partially. I agree that people view right and wrong and good and evil differently to other people.
Where my disagreement stemmed from is that in MY views, there is right and wrong clearly, but, if all views were treated as equal without a perspective, then i would agree with you. hope that made sense…
i agree that science and the bible do not disagree…i think that very strongly. Science has NOT proven that evolution created the world! it is a theory. Science also has a theory which has a lot of evidence about the age of the earth. I think that booklover, still not attacking you but you should research the subject of the age of the earth not just from one source. I have the book of that website and im reading it in conjunction with a christian book that thinks that science and the bible do not disagree and the earth is old.
Scientists being more educated than us matters quite a bit. While basing everything on the bible and God, what they say should be the next most reliable source in how old the earth was and how it was created. Becuase the bible and scientists disagree on HOW the earth was made, the bible takes priority and i believe it. (science still has not proven the bible wrong because evolution is a theory not a rule or fact).
Because what scientists say about the age of the earth does not contradict the bible (in my views: i believe the days may not be literal 24 hour days) then we can put more trust in what the scientists are saying.
anyway, hopefully i didnt hurt anybodys feelings or disregard anybody’s views, im just stating my opinions here. No hard feelings. 🙂

DragonRider: I think that only one aspect of evolution is true (there are lots of “parts” to evolution); Variation within species. For example, a dog is a dog. But there are Dalmations and Labridors and Chows, and they are all adapted, or bred, to look as they do. That makes sence. I just don’t believe that something microscopic evolved into something like me. No Flames. 😀
And thanks for the agreements on…well, everything (I am bound by my vows earlier not to squabble over Eragon’s parantage… 😉 )!

July 10, 2008 at 6:50 am
Knight i was just being cautious, its a sensitive issue and its better to be cautious than not. What you said about evolution is true, we can see it within species which means its real enough but the theory of evolution which includes the changing of species hasn’t been proved.
The thing about how god created the universe, if i was to believe i would have to say he created the universe through the big bang and the universe follows the laws of science. Here’s the interesting thing about the big bang, nobody knows if its true but it is more than 99% likely. We can see every moment back in time to the point just before the big bang, it is impossible to actually see the big bang but from what we have seen everything supports the theory of the big bang.
Knight i sort of understand how you feel, and i believe that’s why so many people believe in a god because every religion offers an afterlife. People are afraid of the unknown and religion provides safety and assurance, though it also means this life is nothing but a test which is really messed up from my point of view. I don’t know about you but i find the thought of nothingness after death far more comforting than hell, and the fact that people like Ghandi will go to hell. That feels WRONG to me.
lovethebooks congrats, i haven’t really been reading books lately but i know a really good television series based on a series of books. Supposedly the tv series is better than the books and i’ve only seen the series which is fantastic but not for everyone. It’s called DEXTER, you should watch it if you can, warning it’s MA15+ and is about a serial killer who kills other serial killers. Hell of a show very interesting but not for everyone…

Do you guys know what Inheritance-dislikers have steriotyped us as? Stupid, slobbering, screaming fangirls who cannot write with any amount of skill and that we all want Eragon to fall in love with us.
And you know what? As much as it kills me to say this…reading some examples of the kind of things Inheritance fans send them?…they are absolutely right. A lot of us are really immature and resort to stalking, threatening, and blackmailing people who don’t like Inheritance. Kinda makes me ashamed to be one of the masses.

Yeah i’m more than happy to find out what happens in Doctor Who.
Thing about a stereotype is its a generalisation of the masses so it doesn’t actually apply to individuals, and even if it did i thankfully i don’t fit under the description, though maybe it does for the rest of you? 😉
Though what confuses me is why would anyone make an anti sight to bitch about something they don’t like instead of joining one about something they like? Seems rather petty, but i’ll check out the sight.

The Daleks “hijack” 27 planets and hide them in the Medusa Cascade. The planets, set up correctly, do some techno-jargon thing (it is really hard to understand the Doctor this time around) that allow the Daleks to create a Reality Bomb. The planets will transmit it everywhere, everytime, and to every dimension and parrallel world. The Dalek Empire will be kept safe inside their ship (*coff coff coff*Death Star*coff coff*)
The Doctor finds the Earth and Rose. The Doctor is shot by a Dalek, and Jack appears to blow it up. The Doctor “regenerates” in the TARDIS (Tennant is still with us-he put all the spare regenerative energy into his hand) with Jack, Rose, and Donna looking on, and the TARDIS is taken to the Daleks’ Death-I mean, ship. The Doctor and Rose are taken to Davros (Jack being “dead”). All the companions (besides Donna) are teleported there.
The TARDIS is dropped in to the incinerator (I don’t care what they call it, it is an incinerator), with Donna trapped inside. She touches the Doctor’s spare hand, and the regenerative energy breaks the capsule. The hand grows a new Doctor, but because of Donna, he is human in body (one heart). The new Doctor (ND from here on) lands the TARDIS in the Daleks’ ship, where the OD (old Doctor) and Rose are. After Donna is shocked by Davros, she suddenly has the same mind as the Doctor’s. She fiddles with a control panel, and the Daleks go spinning away. She fiddles some more and all the planets (save Earth) go back to where they are supposed to be. As the OD goes into the TARDIS, the ND destroys the Daleks with the control panel. They explode.
The OD gets very angry and ushers everyone into the TARDIS. Davros refuses to go. The OD leaves the ship and tows Earth back to its spot, via Sarah’s computer. The OD leaves Sarah, Jack, Micky, and Martha off at Earth, then takes Jackie, Rose, and the ND to the parellel universe, where he leaves them.
Donna, however, is burning up, having the Doctor’s conciensness in her mind. The Doctor removes all memories of him and the Doctor part from her, and brings her home.
So the Doctor is alone until Christmas.

Ok, I am not going to respond to all your comments. Honestly, there are just TOO MANY! But, I did read them all so I’m up-to-date. I’m just not going to answer all the many conversation threads.
The ones I will answer too… 1) I do believe in evolution within species. But cats and dogs and fish were never ever related.
2) Doctor Who sounds absolutely confusing. I have a Cyberfriend who mentioned it once and that’s the extent of my knowledge.
3) HOW CAN YOU PEOPLE STILL THINK THAT BROM ISN’T ERAGON’s FATHER!?!?!? How much evidence do you all need??? I…I just….what is WRONG with you? *sigh* I just *shakes head sadly* you are all delusional. Having Morzan be Eragon’s father is so cliche and boring! I mean…honestly, Murtagh says that Morzan is his dad, and they’re brothers and you’re all so willing to believe it! Don’t you want Brom to be his father? I’m so confused! (there Knight, I vented for you)
4) Has anyone seen Batman? Or Hancock? I want to see both those movies really bad. I just havn’t gotten around to it yet….
anyways, ok, I have to go now. BYE!
July 24, 2008 at 7:02 pm
@DragonRider
1)Agreed. Otherwise they would not eat/chase each other, hmmm? 😉
2)Ok, so the fanbase is small. Oh, well. I luv him anyway. (Say hi to ur friend for me, ‘k? Or is that too weird? *Smiley with raised eyebrows, which I dunno how to do*)
3)*Bows* Thanks, DR.
4)Nope. I wanna see Batman, but…nope.
Bye.

~Brom
July 25, 2008 at 3:12 am
Nice, Knight it sounds good and not as confusing as the last one.
1) evolution within species is easy to understand because we can actually see it, all of us find it hard to understand evolution of species because it takes so long that you can’t actaully see it, thus its near impossible to comprehend. There is lots of evidence that supports the “theory of evolution” it has yet to be proved however it makes sense to me that its real, how can one form of evolution exist and not the other?
2) I have a friend who’s a die hard Dr Who fan but you don’t find many, that seems to be the case with scifi in general.
3) BROM IS NOT ERAGON’S FATHER 😉 😀
4) I want to see batman that first movie was really good and this one is supposed to be better, i should see it soon enough.

July 26, 2008 at 2:48 am
I was reading that anti site and an interesting topic was brought up which should spark some interest Eragon related discussion. Why is the empire evil? at first this question seems silly but then what have we been shown except the biased views of the empires enemies? and most of them are enemies because Galbatorix destroyed one dictatorship in the dragonriders and replaced it with his own, which if we really look at it can so far only really be accused of being incompetent, not evil.

July 26, 2008 at 11:59 pm
OK! THIS IS GREAT! I’m gonna be gone for a week, so I’ll put my opinion out there now on this new topic. SO, the thing is, why is the empire evil, right?
Ok, so this can go with a lot of things, and it also goes back to the perspective thing (alright, this is most likely going to be a very disconnected, confusing jumble of thoughts. Sorry to all who read it.) Now, we, reading from the pov’s of Eragon and co. are led to believe that the Empire, and Galbatorix, are evil. But, as Murtagh pointed out to Eragon, Galbatorix says that all he wants is a peaceful empire. Now, obviously we don’t know for sure, but if Galbatorix wants a peaceful empire, and Eragon and co. are forcing a war with their rebellions, then isn’t it Eragon and co. who are, quote on quote “evil”? They’re forcing a war, when there doesn’t have to be one because Eragon isn’t willing to give up himself. Granted, I wouldn’t want to give myself up, and it is wrong for Galbatorix to be dictating to the point that Eragon can’t even be free because he has a dragon. He shouldn’t be monopolizing the whole Dragonrider thing, but it’s only really because he felt threatened and abandoned, wasn’t it? If we are from Galbatorix’s or Murtagh’s perspective, then it’s actually Eragon and everyone that are evil. They’re threatening an entire empire, that, (correct me if i’m wrong, my memory’s failing me) doesn’t have any really serious problems!
I read a book, Mistborn (I highly recommend), and in that book there was a group of people trying to overthrow an empire, but the empire WAS evil. I’m not going to go into that a ton, but there was a reason for them to be overthrowing it. In Eragon, the only reason for Eragon and co. to be trying to overthrow the Empire is because Galbatorix possess all the dragon eggs and is attacking a select group of rebellious peoples that are directly opposing his rule and his empire.
And, you know, this same thing applies to Pirates of the Caribbean (I am a huge Pirates person). The Pirates are technically the *evil* ones. They pilage, steal, attack people, etc. etc. whyatever. Cutler Beckett and etc. are trying to stop the pirates who do all these bad things, so aren’t they technically the good ones even though we know they aren’t? But TECHNICALLY aren’t they? Ok, I’d so write more, but I just realized I have to go.
BYE!
July 27, 2008 at 1:38 pm
HELLO!! Hows it been? booklove wheres the count down i have been lost on what day its been b/c i havent been on this site in so long….
any exciting new here?
July 28, 2008 at 5:37 pm
Dark Lord: Yea, it’s hard to find a good scifi lover.
Hmmm…actually, all the evidence Paloni ever gives us that the Empire is evil is that the Urgals are attacking people and the Empire doesn’t care, when they can’t know that. I mean they aren’t mind readers.
And Paloni puts way too much stress on how the citizens have to *GASP* pay taxes.
So yea, the Empire isn’t really evil at all, that I can see. Unless the King (more on the King-Empire thing in a sec.) personally ordered the Urgals to attack Yurzac (or wherever) and kill everybody…not a lot of evil going on in the government.
Now, about the EMPIRE being ruled by a KING. That’s not how it works, and I am quite frankly surprised that that got past the editors (Empire~Emperor, Kingdom~King. Not that hard.) . Generally, an empire is a kindom that has conquered other places and absorbed them into its ranks. And as far as I can tell, Paloni’s empire hasn’t conquered anything.
Actually, as far as I can tell? Paloni only called his land an Empire and not a Kingdom because Star Wars did.
And, in the case of Star Wars, the Empire and the Emperor really WERE evil. I won’t get too deep here, but they blew up Alderaan (emphisis is placed on the fact that Alderaan was peaceful and had no weapons). Definately Evil.
Done with rant.

Two awesome things happened yesterday i watched The Dark Knight which was brilliant! It’s such a shame Heath Ledger died because the character of the Joker and his portrail were absolutely brilliant, the movie was more about the Joker than it was Batman but that only made it better. The other was reading that Epistle thing which was strange but a good read. Eragon is a Mary Sue i refuse to use Gary Stue, he fits the definition perfectly, i remember saying this before when John and Kate posted on here. Eldest diminished his Mary Sueness by the consequences of killing Durza, the back spasms and Vanir made Eragon a better character, but that where the good stuff ends. The dragon spirits cured Eragon of his issues and made him the ultimate Mary Sue, this followed by Vanir apologising made Eragon queen of the Mary Sue’s. Sounds harsh but its true, but enough on Mary Sues…
Two other subjects the Epistle brought up was that Murtagh is the best character in the series and i sure as hell hope he doesn’t sacrifice himself to save Eragon ala Darth Vader in Star Wars. Hopefully the third book has a lot to do with Murtagh, as it was a shame he was so limited in the second book. The second was that Eragon is a sociopath, that seems insane but it was explained well and even though he may not actually be a sociopath he defianately has some sociopathic tendencies, which is somewhat disturbing because it seems oblivios to Paolini.

Glad that I could direct you somewhere that you liked, Dark Lord. Try this next. It has nothing to do with Inheritance but is totally funny anyway.
http://www.anti-shurtugal.com/wordpress/?p=42
And yea, I’m hoping that Paolini doesn’t ruin Vadar’s sacrifice by forcing Murtaugh into one.
Oh my goodness, all I did was agree with you and give really short answers. I need a sugar infusion, STAT!
Just kidding. I really need a time warp or something. Ah, well, I really have to go. Bye!
August 1, 2008 at 8:53 am
hey im not going to commenting in order sorry, it gets too hard.
i agree that eragon is a mary sue, i also remember when kate and john were here: i miss their input. actually the more i think about it the more i think (please dont shoot me) that eragon and eldest did not actually take too much imagination and skill to write. mostly because he basiacally copied star wars, and the main charactar’s personality. Just so everyone knows, and i stress this point: I STILL LOVE THE BOOKS. thats why im here :).
another thing i will complain about while im complaining is arya, its okay if nobody agrees with me but do you guys think she has a personality or not? i think shes kind of the stereotypical female perfect elf to an extent at least. anyway its cool if u disagree.
the only thing i think that makes eragon (after the the healing by the dragons) not quite perfect is his ‘irrational?’ hate for urgals? he kind of gets over it but not really right?
i agree with several of you in that the empire isnt really as evil as the book makes out, or that the book doesnt really give much evidence except the empire has mindlessly been destroying towns with urgals, but then again, at the battle in eldest nasuada raises questions about how evil even the urgals are so yeh. my opinion is that it is taken as granted that the empire is evil, which is why everyone is fighting, i wont believe that they arent evil because it would take away from the enjoyment of the books, if that makes sense, even though one could say it seems childish.
with doctor who, sounds interesting but no thanks, i dont really have time to add another tv show to my little list lol.
hahaha brom ISNT eragons father! i say not so much because i believe it strongly but because i really want it to be true lol. its the same reason why i say RORAN WILL BE THE NEXT RIDER!! 😀 :D, even though theres heaps of evidence for you know who (without spoiling it for anyone who doesnt want to know).
lol dragonrider i totally agree with what u said about pirates of the caribbean!!its all messed up lol.
oh lastly yeh i miss the countdown, it meant i didnt have to keep checking:)
sorry if there was any questions i didnt answer or anything but gtg

I was reading a site and i can’t remember where but it said that Brisingr had a subtitle called the Seven Promises of Eragon Shadeslayer and Saphira (some word that means bright scales), it seems strange doesn’t it? The fourth will also have a subtitle, well that’s what the site says but i don’t know if it’s accurate, but it seems likely.

August 9, 2008 at 9:40 am
Hey Kate, actually its good that you’re back as i’m just about to start a topic that you might like. When i read Eldest the first time the whole vegetarian thing of the elves bothered me, an animal’s life is so precious to them that they won’t kill them for food, later Eragon joins this point of view, this bothered me to no end as I disagree with the reasoning. Now I realise something I didn’t before, Arya and Eragon have both killed humans and Urgals in battle… well der you say what’s the big deal? Well it’s obvious isn’t it, they have no problem killing people in senseless battles but they won’t kill an animal for food, an animal’s life is more precious than a humans. How the hell could someone who won’t kill an animal for food have no issues whatsoever in killing people? It’s doing my head in.

August 10, 2008 at 1:56 pm
Hey, Kate. Good to see you back.
Actually, you may not know me, because I don’t know if we were here at the same time before. Oh, well.
Yea, Dark Lord. At least Roran had a 5-second pity-party over killing somebody. Eragon doesn’t even do that, unless marvelling over how easy it is counts. Which it doesn’t.
And the elves aren’t exactly weeping in repentance, either.

August 13, 2008 at 10:29 pm
Does anybody know a good forum for writing? A link would be much appreciated.
# 14 the only thing that comes to mind is is that Brisingr has a subtitle, which is infact harder to pronounce than the title.

August 14, 2008 at 9:28 am
That’s a good point, but there are a few things to consider. Well, one thing. Animals are, as far as we know, without thought or intention, and so cannot be “evil”. Humans, however, have the ability to choose their actions, thus allowing them to be “evil”.
Kate
August 14, 2008 at 9:54 am
Have you tried the Nanowrimo forums? They’re quite detailed.
Kate
August 15, 2008 at 6:01 am
Good point Kate but the issue with the killing the animals as far as i can tell from the books is not actaully being able to kill it, the very act of killing is the issue. I’m not really sure how they can justify killing someone just because they might think that person is evil, and has been shown the Urgals weren’t evil and i doubt Galby’s soldiers are evil. Having killed an animal with my bare hands i can say it’s not that big a deal and something everyone should do at least once, i can’t excatly see myself killing a person, two very different things. The second no surprise is exponentially harder, there is no need to explain why.

August 16, 2008 at 4:56 am
Ok. I’m kinda confused and so shall start my own little train of thought.
I can see why the elves and Eragon would hate to see an animal suffer. I don’t like it either. But come on. If they are so veggitarian that they cannot kill an animal because they are taking its life, how can they calmly go to battle and kill ten men with a whispered word and not care about THAT loss of life? And if the elves gather fallen swan feathers as apposed to killing one (which would surely be easier and faster to do, not to meantion that there are ways of killing painlessly) to make a garment, why doesn’t Arya catch any grief about wearing leather?
If Paolini says ANYTHING about Arya finding a dead cow and curing it, I am going to laugh. Very, very hard.
August 21, 2008 at 2:12 am

Hey, yo, wassup, hola, hello, and all those other fancy-schmancy greetings.
It’s been over a month, wow.
Knight: *did* you scare them? Interesting thoughts about the Vegan lifestyle (although they aren’t vegans if they’re wearing leather.) I watched a show, and in it there was this lady and ALL she wore was like polyester and cotton because she refused to wear anything with animal-taken ingredients (example, SILK, because those poor poor silk-worms are losing so much) Honestly, I think that living the life of a vegetarian, vegan or otherwise, is pointless. The animals are there to be used/eaten. As long as you’re not killing because you’re some sadist, then it’s perfectly alright. Really, if we didn’t eat cows, they’d be overrunning the earth.

August 21, 2008 at 9:13 am
I agree with both Knight and DR, having a look back at my post that probably scared everyone off as it is written so poorly. How long till Bris Singer comes out?
Very interest thing happened the other day, i was writing my novel and i realised the “final villain’s” goal is world peace, doesn’t seem like much of a bad guy but of course that it one of the questions that the “villain” brings up in the final showdown and even gives the “hero” the choice of world peace or killing the “villain.” The only catch is the world peace is to be achieved by mass extinction of most of the human race. Sorry about putting this on here just thought it was interesting, as all my “villains” bend the the rules of good and evil a little.

But that’s the mark of a good villain!!! I HATE when the villain is destroying, hacking, killing, burning for NO REASON AT ALL. It drives me bonkers. I like it when you can look at the bad guy and understand WHY they did things, even if you yourself don’t agree with the WAY the villain does things.
August 21, 2008 at 12:40 pm
Hey, Dragon Rider, long time no…um…talk. And no, Dragon Rider. Apparently, I scared nobody and it is all Dark Lord’s fault! *points dramatically* Nah, I’m kidding.
Dark Lord: So? If every evil villian dressed in all black, had a cape and a gotee (or a “rubbish beard” 😉 ), and a secret lair, then where would the fun be? Sure, if it’s done right, it can make a kick-butt story. But so too can a villian be a beautiful princess prancing around in pretty dresses. That’s part of what makes reading stories fun; they AREN’T all the same! 😀
Mini-rant over. Ciao!

August 23, 2008 at 2:09 pm
The Villain wants world peace? COOL! THat’s my type of villain. You’re book sounds awesome (just from that little chunk of information you put) And World Peace isn’t a bad ideal even if one is a villain. Really, all villains aren’t out to destroy the world (how boring would that be) I mean ERAGON! Galbatorix has claimed to Murtagh that what he wants is World Peace. He just happens to be going about it the wrong way. (That kind of goes back to that perspective thing waaaaay up there. About how in Galbatorix’s eyes, he may be the ‘good guy’.)

Yes, seriously. I’m a week and a half in already!
August 26, 2008 at 6:21 am
Hey sorry ive been away for so long.
Kate welcome back 🙂 im not sure if u knew me but i read the comments above a while ago so I know of you.
I think a villain is the best when you dont know its them, like a big suprise thing, and u suspect everybody. But that may be a different thing to the kind of villain ur talking about. Also i think villains are good when what they’re doing makes sense to them, and when the reader can see why they think what they think.
With the killing animals but not humans thing, I have an idea. I think they said it somewhere in the book as well. Killing animals is not right according to the book partly because, the purpose of it is simply to create pleasure for the person doing it or someone because they get to eat it, where they COULD eat fruit. If they were fighting for survival in the wilderniss it would be differerent. On the other hand, killing a person/urgal has a reason and point, which is to win battles and defeat galbatorix. By the way im not saying that i think killing animals is wrong, i’m talking from Eragon and co’s perspective.

So, when DOES Brisinger come out again? Now that it’s so close I’M DYING!!!
Gramarye, I would assume it does, but I’m not sure. I know books like Twilight came out with like a month between releases in different countries. Sorry we’re of no help.
Grrrrrrr I’ve been in school for 3 weeks now and you’re complaining because you JUST STARTED!? 😥

September 10, 2008 at 2:54 am
Hey everyone been awhile brisingr comes out in lil over a week awesome…. hows everyone been?
September 12, 2008 at 3:02 am
Your school is confusing. I have nine months of school straight, with no ‘two week’ breaks between. But for holiday’s we get 2-4 days off and then the big holidays (ie Christmas and Spring Break) we get like two and a half weeks or something…that’s c-mas. Spring Break we get one week. Other then that we get various 1 day vacations Usually on fridays, so it’s a 3-day weekend) and small, as i said, 2-3 day vacations for smallish holidays like Thanksgiving. That’s was confusing, and I’m not sure it was accurate. Oh well. 🙂
BTW Brisingr comes out on September 20th in USA. It’s a SATURDAY! That’s happy-making. I’m SO EXCITED 😆

What, are we all too excited to write, or what? 😀
September 16, 2008 at 11:52 am
nothing really to comment on cos no ones really talking, it comes out on a saturday in Australia as well, 20th of September 4 days away…excited i am.
September 19, 2008 at 12:56 am
OH MY GOSH IT’S ONLY TWO DAYS! I’M SOOOO EXCITED> I hope it isn’t so boring. Eldest bored me To. Tears. 😥 Sometimes I wanted to just chuck it across the room. But at the end it got pretty exciting, what with Murtagh and everything 🙂
PS BROM IS ERAGON’S FATHER! AND SOON I’LL BE ABLE TO TELL ALL YOU NON-BELIEVERS “I TOLD YOU SO”!!!!! 😛

Midnight tonight, people!
And please…
NO FRICKING SPOILERS WITHOUT WARNINGS, YOU FAST READERS! Sorry for swearing.
But seriously, guys, it’s not fair. Give the rest of us time.
Thanks.
~Brom
P.S.~Total agreement, DR. I hope Murtaugh’s Ok and Galby doesn’t kill him… ;(
September 23, 2008 at 9:12 pm
🙂 awesome lol wont spoil it….. it good iam a good ways threw it….
September 28, 2008 at 7:59 am
SPOILER ALERT!!!!!
Seriously if you get spoiled now. You either read unbearably slow, or chose to ignore my warning.
Go Galby killing Oromis and his dragon. The appearance of the shade was pointless, especially being killed so quickly by Arya.
I don’t understand all the Roran chapters, unless Roran kills Galby or becomes the new king or something it just seems pointless.
How stupid is Eragon? Very, the Razac was telling him something important and Eragon forgets it for the rest of the book.
“What would you leave behind when all your fields are dead
When your territories are dried out and your cities drowned and swept?
What would you leave behind when those who bear your name
Are born in that place that you wrecked?
What would you leave behind when you’re no longer there?”
October 2, 2008 at 1:28 am
***********************SPOILERS******************************Dark Lord: Just done.
Wow. He got better, huh?
I only disagree with you on Orismis co. *hissssss* I really liked them.
Also?…
Soooo glad that I was right…and I WILL NOT SAY “I toldja so”.
Anyone else see the mention of the Doctor in the credits? 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀

Any ideas when book 4’s coming out?
There was a 2 year gap between Eragon and Eldest, then a 3 year gap between Eldest and Brisingr. But I was of the impression that CP has book 4 pretty much finished (in his head at least, not written) but it could take a while to set it all straight on paper, and it can take ages to get then ending right…
October 17, 2008 at 4:34 am
Hello all.
I just finished reading Brisingr, and I believe it’s on level with Eldest, in terms of how it’s written. I actually went back and reread Eragon a few weeks ago, and found that it wasn’t written nearly as poorly as I recall. In fact, it was quite mediocre. Eldest, however, was terrible. I think that, when Paolini was just writing a story for fun (Eragon), he wrote it without trying to impress the world. Once he became famous, however, I think he either: a, figured he was a genius (Which he is not. He’s very, very average.) and so attempted to write like one, or b, he simply felt the need to “improve” his writing so that it was more worthy of publication….A big mistake for someone who had only learned to write a few years prior.
Just my thoughts, I guess. I imagine book 4 will be out in less time than it took for book 3, because he realized halfway through that he needed to split it into 2 books….So, it seems reasonable to assume that that discovery (Even though the whole series so far could really be stuck into one book, in regards to plot.) set him back a fair way, though I doubt it’ll hinder book 4’s release.
– Kate
October 18, 2008 at 10:49 pm
Hmmm…Good, I guess…
Hey Kate, just curious…why did you think 3 to be no better than 2? Maybe it’s just the “New Book Feeling”, but I rather enjoyed this one (although, I am not anxious to read it again because I’ll probably ruin my liking of it by finding errors…)?
October 22, 2008 at 5:09 pm
I actually thought this one was the most entertaining of the three. I was very sad that Oromis and Glaedr died….stupid Galbatorix. But, ok, this doesn’t make sense to me, why the crap did it go all into explaining how Oromis had 100 years worth of energy in his sword only to not even use it??? I MEAN COME ON!!! Just finish Murtagh off rather than wait for ever and end up having one of your stupid seizures! *sigh* Ok, i’m done now.
I still feel really bad for Murtagh and Thorn.
It’s SOO Obvious that the Vault of Souls is where Galbatorix is keeping all the Dragon “heart” things, and Eragon will find them and then use them to defeat Galbatorix. Arya is still going to get the green dragon. Eragon is going to end up leaving Alagaesia forever, blah blah blah. This book is rather obvious to figure out, I mean, there isn’t much ‘mystery’. Oh yea, and I agree the whole Shade thing was pointless when it didn’t even go anywhere.
And I’m not going to hold back saying “I TOLD YOU SO I TOLD YOU SO!!!!” 😆
October 23, 2008 at 4:49 am
Saphira is out of her fucking (Sorry for my German((most of our swearing comes from the German language.)) mind. She says that one day, they (her and Eragon) will go to the top of the Beor mountains. 10 miles up=50,000 feet= no air (probably 1 oxygen molecule per cubic yard.) And by 25,000 Eragon can’t breath, by 30,000 Saphira will be frozen. (Nelson laugh)
Alagaesia isn’t as big as CP says it is. From Gil’ead to Farthen Dur is 100 and something leagues, which is 475 miles (yes I did the math) Gil’ead is near the Top, not that many more miles to the top. About three Alagaesia’s will fit into the U.S.
And just to make Alagaesia feal small, it took Eragon/ Murtag/ Saphira 8 days to travel 475 miles (which is mentioned to be an impressive feat) It would only take a US fighter jet 25 minuets.
October 23, 2008 at 2:04 pm
Wow, Alagaesia is TINY! That’s funny, I salute you for figuring all that out…
October 26, 2008 at 9:36 pm
WOW. Great job with the figures and all. Maybe Saphira’s hoping that the closer to the sun she gets, the warmer it is (and, really, that makes more sense if you don’t think too hard…)? Even though she’s already tried it and got frozen out.
Um…hey, guys? I know that my inexperiense is showing (“Where?” :D), but what is OTP?

October 28, 2008 at 7:17 am
hey everyone
i didnt come on for ages cos i thought everyone would be finishing off the book, but then i forgot to come on and it looks like you’ve all finished it ages ago
about book four, what i heard was that book three and four were both finished when he released number three, and i mean finished as in written, though maybe part of number four wasnt edited or something. anyway, i heard that he’s done and hes going to release it in march 2009, so only 5 months. thats in AUstralia at least.
i have heaps of things to comment on about the book.
i think it was a tiny bit better than the second one, but still not as good as the third one. i was really glad that they didnt keep following the plot of star wars, or at least not obviously, correct me if im wrong anybody.
anyway i think oromis shouldnt have left ellesmera in the first place and it made sense that he’d die if he did: he said it in book 3: he cant really fight and neither can Glaedr. i agree that the roran stuff was pretty pointless but i think he’s going to end up being king so yeh.
what happened? they were supposed to find the third egg? if they find it next book they’ll barely have enough time to train the new rider before the end of the series.
(Roran will be the third rider 😀 :-D)
the shade was only put in so Eragon would have somebody to fight at the end because Murtagh was taken.
i liked the thing with the heart of hearts and stuff, that was cool. and yes congrajulations dragon rider and others who guessed/ figured out that brom was eragons father. im disappointed in that though: it gave eragon character to not be so perfect and have a perfect father. some would say it completes him and makes him more of a good guy, but i think it makes him more one-dimensional and simple.
anyway brisingr was awesome (so were the other two)

October 28, 2008 at 7:24 am
note: when i said ‘tiny bit better than the second one, but still not as good as the third one’ what i meant was tiny bit better than the second one but still not as good as the first one. (in case you didnt figure it out)
jarred
October 29, 2008 at 1:49 pm
Ok, wait, not following the star wars plot? THere wasn’t a plot follow, but there were some SERIOUS rip offs. I mean, come on.
‘He lifted his free hand and held it out toward Eragon. “My son, come with me. Together, we can destroy the Varden, kill Galbatorix, and conquer all of Alagaesia. But give me your heart, and we shall be invincible.”
OH PLEASE! That is the HUGEST Star Wars rip off I’ve EVER READ IN MY LIFE!!!

It’s in a dream Eragon had. A dream that was really rather pointless to even put in the book, i might point out seeing as how it had NO significance at all, but I don’t remember which page it was. Anyways. It’s in there, I promise. I copied it right off the page.
I don’t know what OTP is, so that’s why I didn’t answer.

No, no, no, DragonRider! Concepts like “normal” and “weird” only work because the majority of people beleive in them. If most people had pink hair and purple polka-dot eyes, that would be “normal” and blue hair and blond eyes would be “weird”, see?
And manga and anime=pretty pictures. Pretty pictures ROCK. I’ve never read those two, but they’re probably nice.
And Hell, yes (if yousa be pardoning meesa French). Star Wars RULES!!!

Yea, I read Star Wars books. I try to read them in the ‘order’ that all the zillions of authors wrote them in. And yes, than can be pretty cunfuzzling. Have you read The Truce At Bakura? One of my faves.
Exactly. But Heaven forbid that we cause ourselves MORE undue anguish, so…on to ranting.

Part 1 of 2.
~*~
Answers: Nah, I’m not gonna make it easy as THAT, just telling you. But it kinda sounds like you are worried you have offended me, and I appreciate it.
I wasn’t offended, by the way.
But Twilight came out midnight November 20th and I saw it on the 27th where I am. So…that’ll be 2 weeks this Thursday. It was awesome! Please don’t YOU get offended or stare at me in horror of my fangirliness, but…Carlisle was, well, hot (actually, I was thinking “pretty” all through the move, I dunno why,but…)! *Blush*
I’m gonna cheat and stick a question of my own in here: Between Nov. 20th and this comment, do you see like 20 comments from me, and baisically I’ve been re-posting for nothing? Because I see all of them, only some have *Your comment is awaiting moderation* at the top.
If so? *Headdesk* in advance.
December 2, 2008 at 11:26 pm
Part 2 of 3.
~*~
Ok, last thing before the Terribly Long and Incredibly Tedious Closing Ceremony!
Yes, those four comments were “cut and pasted” (in the very loosest meaning of the term) from one huge long comment. So you can see where my agitation came from; on top of being robbed and Qui-Gon, well, you KNOW…I had to redo this humongo comment, and I simply didn’t have the time! But by now I’ve had a ginormous Star Trek: TNG infusion, and I’ve been getting hit with wave after wave of inspired snippets of writing (no matter HOW dramatic they are; beggers can’t be choosers, and all that…), so all is well in BromLand.

sorry its been so long since i replied, i had basically no free time during tests. anyway somebody made reference to charlie and the candy mountain – you’re cool!! charlie and the candy mountain is awesome and the second one is pretty good as well.
is it just me or is there basiacally nobody on here just the two of you dragonrider and KotBCT. it was a while back when i posted my last comment but i said that the 3rd book no longer followed the plot of star wars. i admit that that segment actually is the same as star wars almost exactly. sighs in defeat. but still, overall it was pretty iunno individual. i sort of saw all those comments and skimmed them cos there were too many, but i got the star wars thing – star wars is aweswome! i love qui-gon and obi wan, but quigon not as much as obi-won. hmm there probably heaps of things i didnt comment on but oh well. oh and i’ve seen the cartoon clone wars if you guys havent, it was pretty good but not as good as i’d hoped. The special effects were pretty good and the plot was pretty good, i thought it was going to be just like battle after battle but there was like a plotline so it was good.
btw i posted a comment ages ago that said the fourth book comes out in march 2009 because he’d already written it but im pretty sure thats wrong now, i apologize. from like a interview with CP i heard and u might have as well he said it might be quite a while like 2010. at least i think thats what he said so correct me if im wrong.
ive got my formal this afternoon btw…pretty cool.

Um, Knight, I am thoroughly confused about the whole Twilight times weeks etc. stuff, so I’m going to just skip over that except for the part where you said Carlisle was “pretty” because I SO AGREE! I saw him and I was like “oh my gosh!” So yeah. And Edward was HILARIOUS. Oh, and gorgeous too. And Jasper looked so funny!

Heh-heh…the thing is just hilarious. Baisically, there’s this list that an “evil overlord”-to-be has made about all the things he’ll NEVER do once his world domination plan is rolling. It just about killed me! And I love it because, while of course I believe that the hero always wins, he shouldn’t have it TOO easy.

Questions?!? No, no, NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
I have failed you, my friend. *Gives cookies made of love to make up for it*
To answer them:
1) Mostly books, CD’s, and movies/TV shows. Like, 2 pages full of things! 😉
2) Yes, of course~if the intent was good. No, I changed my mind. Bombs, internet failures, and baluka whales do not make good gifts. No matter what the intent.

Apparently, the spiked punch at my epic Christmas party put us all out of commision longer than I reconed on. Either that, or I should REALLY take some cooking classes; my next victems may press charges otherwise (you ARE all still alive, right?)
Sorry, all. I do hope that nobody missed important engagements/meetings/info downloads. And if you did, let that be a warning to you; come to my parties FULL. Or eat only processed foods that you see opened with your own eyes. O.o
Anyway. There wasn’t really a point to my ramblings, other than breaking the long silence.
Consider it broken.

Blodhgarm? Ok, I know who that is so I’m not sure what the heck you’re talking about Blodhgarm. Anyways. And….If Saphira were real, then so would Eragon, and then Saphira would already be Eragon’s dragon. AND since they’d be bonded, dragon and rider, you’d be screwed. 🙂 Haha, anyways. Oh yeah, and………..dang…………i lost my train of thought…………..OH YEAH! If you want to write a book series, you should write something original rather than something like the Inheritance since the Inheritance, as good as it is, is essentially a partial rip off of many many fantasies already in existance. Don’t get me wrong, I love it, but It’s still got some very, um, old ideas going in it as far as…..the whole, you know, idea goes. ANYWAYS. Elves and dwarves and all that jazz are overrated anyways, so you should totally go write you own series, but make it your own. 😆
Ok, now that I’ve sufficiently replied to your multiple comments, I’ll move on to more important things like…..
Did everyone leave? Am I talking to myself? WHAT IS GOING ON IN THIS PLACE! haha, ok done. Hyper. But done. I love LOST. And American Idol. And *whispers* haha, you don’t get to know that last one.
Hey Brom, are you still around? Really, don’t leave me to go insane by myself! PLEASE!!!!

does eragon mary arya
April 29, 2009 at 12:50 am
As of right now, NO. Arya soundly rejected Eragon in Book 2, and unless Arya happens to be the Rider of the Green Dragon, I really think there’s no hope for the two of them… Chances are they will get together. There’s been too much leading up to it, dontcha think????
Know what REALLY irritates me? The fact that Glaedr’s Rider died so stupidly when he had so much power at his command. I mean, he had like, 100’s of years of magic stored up in his sword. And then he never used it! Dumb, I’d say. I think I already complained about this….oh well.
May 7, 2009 at 2:23 am
when will book 4 come out?? well how is he suppossed to use the magic in his sword if he can’t move it retard read the chapter where he dies again.

May 10, 2009 at 8:51 pm
I personally agree with DragonRider (hi! DR, it’s been too long). If I were Orismis (or however you spell his name… >.<) I would have crippled Thorn the instant I saw him. He would fall, break his neck, and I would win…and probably still have magic left in the sword. Not to mention the magic in my body and in Glaeder’s. It was a BAD IDEA to try hand-to-hand combat, period. Yea, Orismis is an elf, but he’s…damaged…and so is his dragon. I find it hard to believe that the pair’s strength didn’t lie in their mental powress and lay, instead, in their physical strength.
May 10, 2009 at 8:58 pm
And now, Glaeder is trapped in his Eldenari, instead of dead, which I suppose is better, but not by much. It would be like death to be in such a prison, even if you weren’t in pain. And there is no doubt that poor Glaeder is in pain.
(By the way, what makes Miss Uppity Vardin Leader think that she can just ask Eragon’s permission to visit him??? THAT pissed me off. I was like, “NOOOO, you CAN’T visit him right now, PART OF HIM JUST F***ING DIED.” Ugh, I would not last a day in that world. I’d piss somebody off and then they’d behead me. :D)
May 10, 2009 at 9:02 pm
Yea, so that turned into a major rant. A rant of epic proportions, as it were. I sound like an Ant-Fan, or something.
*Considers*
Well, maybe I HAVE been pulled to the middle of the road, and am no longer a stalwart defender of Eragon’s sparkly-white-and-pure reputation. I can live with it.

November 15, 2009 at 4:11 am
Um, just so you know, Christopher Paolini doesn’t come on this website. It’s a fanbased blog.
In answer to your question though, there’s no official release date, there’s no official cover art, there is no official title yet. So the book won’t be out for quite a while into the future. There isn’t very much known about the fourth book.
A really good website to visit for any updates of Paolini’s books (the Inheritance Cycle for example) is http://www.shurtugal.com
Hope that helped. 🙂
November 17, 2009 at 6:47 am
you know how in book three, you find out that selena is morzan’s black hand. How did they meet?
i am assuming that selena and garrow were raised by farmers. How did selena become a skilled swordsman and spell weaver?
what does oromis mean when he says “i wonder” when eragon tells him about his knew sword brisngr?
who is the last rider?
November 18, 2009 at 5:21 am
Well I can only give you my guesses as to the answers to your questions since they’re things that really are never fully explained.
My guess as far as Selena goes is that she learned her skills as a spell-caster and weapon-master after she met Morzan. He probably encouraged it or even trained her himself. As for how they met, that’s entirely left up to speculation or perhaps it will be explained at some point in Book 4.
I’m not sure what Oromis meant. What page was that on so I can go look at it?
And the last rider could be anyone really. The most popular guesses by far are Arya (the idea is that she will get a green male dragon, the green dragon and saphira will become mates, and in a sense so will Arya and Eragon. 😀 The evidence to support this is Arya and Eragon’s hinted future romance, and the fact that Arya has green magic ((which may mean nothing, but it’s all speculation)) The other popular guess is Roran because he and Eragon are related and etc. The theory that their relation would be the tie to both of them becoming riders is less plausible seeing as how Eragon had a parent rider (Brom) and Roran didn’t. Some other guesses that I’ve heard are Nasuada, Elva, a dwarf, or another elf. But no one knows for sure!
January 6, 2010 at 8:41 pm
does anyone know when the book 4 is due to be released?
January 6, 2010 at 8:43 pm
does anyone know when book 4 is being released?
January 20, 2010 at 10:14 am
When is book 4 releasing and what exaactly does eragon lose when he gets that special metal (to make his sword) from the sacred tree?
February 6, 2010 at 2:33 pm
No one knows when it will be released unfortunately. And I’d have to go back and read the book again to answer your other question, Tarita, sorry!
March 13, 2010 at 6:15 am
what about the vault of souls?
March 16, 2010 at 4:59 am
Well, again, it’s something that we don’t know anything for sure on. My guess would be that the Vault of Souls is the place where all of the Dragon’s little soul stone things are. (Wow, it’s been a long time since I read the book. The things like Glaedr’s that preserve the dragon’s life even after their body or Rider dies.)
Because those house the dragons’ souls essentially, and there are many of them, I’d guess that at some point Eragon will find the Vault of Souls and all of the Dragons will offer their strength to him and thus he will defeat Galbatorix using the strength and power of all the dragons that he killed or caused the death of.
Predictable, yes. But most of this series has been predictable so it wouldn’t surprise me.
April 8, 2010 at 5:12 pm
what kind of name is greenie?
April 8, 2010 at 5:11 pm
Well there is rumor that there is going to be a new dragon called greenie. but come on what kind of name is greenie? I think it might be arya she has green magic, green eyes and a vast knowledge of the ancient language.

June 12, 2010 at 10:17 am
Oh my god! U people are mental!!!!! For one, who said that the last egg was a green dragon egg??? And, duh ofcourse the next dragon rider is freakin’ Arya!!!! And NO her “LOVE” for Eragon won’t change, because apparently she doesn’t freakin’ love him!!!!!! And the cover of Brisingr is BLACK!!!! NOT GOLD or BLUE!!!!!! OH MY GOD!!!
June 12, 2010 at 1:49 pm
You are an idiot. No one said that the last egg was green, it’s just a guess. Most things are guesses since the last book ISN’T OUT YET, so there’s no way you could possibly know for sure that Arya is in fact the last rider. That’s another guess. Not to mention that it seems likely that she’ll probably grow to love Eragon because stories work like that, or haven’t you kept up with the typical fantasy storyline lately? And, finally, there are two versions of Brisingr. One, the normal one, is GOLD (and I own it, so don’t be a retard and try to tell me I’m wrong) the Special Edition is black, and in some other countries. Get it?
For future reference, you trying to sound so smart and know-it-all makes you sound really stupid, and you only come across as a jerk.

Wow, I forgot all about this site, and this cycle..I’m sure you’ve all read the latest book, then. What were your thoughts? I’m sure I said what I thought, some time ago, but I can’t recall. May need to chase these books up, again.

April 24, 2011 at 9:28 pm
I don’t know if anyone has posted this or something similar to this already, but I will forge on ahead.
I believe that in Empire, the fourth book,the Vault of Souls and the Rock of Kuthian that was mentioned by Solembum (forgive me if I spell anything wrong) contain the Eldunari of other dragons. The reason that, when asked, Oromis and Arya seem to think that the name “Kuthian” is familiar but cannot recall it is because of the Banishing of the Names. Kuthian might be the name of one of the Forsworn’s, or Wyrdfell’s, dragons. It has been revealed that Galbatorix’s power comes from the Eldunari. Eldunari could be interpreted as being the souls of dead dragons, and so…upon receiving these souls, Eragon would actually have a chance of defeating Galbatorix.

First of all I would like to say great blog! I had a
quick question which I’d like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing. I have had trouble clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out there. I do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips? Thank you!
