This is after Eragon and Eldest, my version of what the Inheritance would be. It takes place right after when Eragon agreed to save Katrina with Roran. It might be a little too short and simple but it's the best I can do. D
Disclaimer: I do not own Eragon or Eldest nor am I the real author. If I were, then the movie would have been much better 'cause the last one sucked! xD
The calm but windy night swayed itself this way and that outside the two-men tent Eragon and Roran were staying in for the night. All was not comfortable, for they lay on rough grass stained by blood and flesh of the many soldiers who fought there hours ago. Despite all that, Roran was fast asleep probably from the day's blows and fights. His last thought that night was of Katrina, longing for her to come back to him once again after all he did for her. Seeing her in the pure faelnirv made him feel a slight satisfaction, for she was still alive, but the invisible chains that dragged her up made him endure sorrow and sadness once more.
The only sound that traveled outside was the voices of many Dwarfs, pleading for the gods to grant King Hrothgart a safe passage to afterlife. Stydia unin mor'ranr, Hrothgar Konungr. Stydia unin mor'ranr, Hrothgar Konungr…
Eragon lay wide-awake in his tent, cuddled up on one side in a light blanket the Vardens provided earlier. All he could do was think to himself, for Saphira lay deep asleep and Eragon didn't want to bother her. The blows caused by Murtagh still left recognizable marks on his chest and legs, slightly hurting whenever he moved.
"Why did it have to happen to me?" he thought, lingering on the long asked and answered question. Feelings of betrayal, sadness, and hatred overcame him, making him shiver all over and resist the pain. Saphira was suddenly awoken by Eragon's feelings, and poked part of her head into the tent to look at Eragon with worry.
Are you okay, Little One?
Eragon sat up and touched one of Saphira's shiny scales.
Yes I'm fine. I just feel a little…awkward.
Saphira made an irregular noise, which was suppose to be a sign and took her head out of the tent.
I feel like that too now, especially because of what Murtagh told us. If I am the only female dragon to survive this century, and Galbatorix have the last egg, then I will never find a mate to containue the species of Dragons.
Don't say that Saphira, after we find Katrina, kill the Ra'zacs, and destroy Galbatorix once and for all, I'll go with you to faraway places to find dragons of your kind.
Smoke came out of Saphira's nose as she turned around to lie in a ball right beside the tent.
If it was that simple, why haven't Galbatorix done so earlier instead of trying to capture us instead? Go to sleep little one, unless we steal the last egg before the dragon swares loyalty to Galbatorix, little or nothing can be done.
With that, Saphira feel asleep leaving Eragon to lay in full consciousness holding on what she had just said.
Phew. So that's what the first chapter's gonna be like. I know it's not much but hey, it's my first FanFic)
