A/N: This is my first fan fic it takes palce at the end of inheritance right as eragon is leaving the only change is Arya isn't queen. Please remember this is my First eragon/arya fan fic and be a bit patient with me and here is the epilogue!Also if you could tell me whether I made Arya seem to OOC that would help

Disclaimer:I don't own these characters

Eragon and arya walked slowly across the deck of the ship ((forgot the name ill look it up later)) her arm wrapped around his while the elves stood still as statues. Finally the reached the edge of the boat and the moment eragon dreaded most. Arya released his arm and looked at him she pushed her hood down letting it fall around her shoulders revealing her beautiful raven black hair. Eragon felt himself longing to smell it, To engulf himself in any part of arya's being. "Eragon look at me.." Arya whispered softly as she saw him looking down at his feet she knew he was sad at there parting. when eragon didn't look up she leaned forward whispering his true name in his ear. As she pulled away eragon looked up his hood falling back across his shoulders as well. His face was tear stained and red but he looked her in the eyes without fear or embarrassment "What arya..." Eragon whispered to her and her only Arya hated seeing him like this... The one she loved more than life itself other than firnen of course. She knew this would be the last time she saw him in a long time... maybe forever... "Eragon...I do love you... please understand that.." She saw him look at him surprise filled his eyes as well as hope "Eragon my people will need a leader during this reconstruction period... while my mother is injured and it will take some time for you to build there riders home..." Eragon nodded his head in understanding not allowing himself to speak as his head swam at his luck "So how about this... when you are finished building... If you still feel the same about me... I will come to where ever you have built this home." Arya said as she leaned forward and kissed him lightly on his lips barely touching them. Then arya stepped back and firnen swooped in and she was gone from his life for now... but not his heart. he looked at saphira and she smiled a toothy grin at him and she said "Well done little one..."
