Umm..This is my first Inheritence Cycle fic, so...it might be a little... Please review and tell me what you think!
Murtagh rode away from the battle on Thorn, his mind troubled. He tried to banish the feeling, but he could not manage it. He sighed.
Thorn noticed and asked, What is troubling you?
Murtagh felt a wave of affection for the bright red dragon, and he replied, I wish that we could break away; that we could be free from Galbatorix.
Saphira and Eragon are free. You feel that we should be too, possibly instead of them. It worries you that you could wish this upon Eragon.
Murtagh was surprised yet again by the way that Thorn could decipher his feelings. That is exactly it, I think. If only I hadn't been taken that day... He let the thought trail off
Thorn snorted. I wouldn't have hatched for you if Galbatorix hadn't taken you. Galbatorix shouldn't have discovered our true names.
Murtagh nodded. You're right. If Galbatorix hadn't discovered our names, then we could join the Varden. We wouldn't be his captives. His grip on Zar'roc tightened.
Thorn growled. We can't free ourselves, though. Our true names control us, and he has them. We have no hope of freeing ourselves.
Murtagh let out a growl of frustration. What's the point, then. We might as well just...die. He sighed.
Thorn considered this for a moment. The Varden could still win. Galbatorix could still perish.
Murtagh shuddered. Now we look forward to a man's death, hoping that it will occur soon. What will come next?
Thorn flew above the clouds, heading back to the land known by many to be evil. They were going back to Galbatorix's castle.
I hope I din't spell Murtagh wrong... :/
