Return of the Forsworn
Prologue
Its roughly 1000 years after Eragon slayed Galbatorix and the Dragon Riders have been restored. The green dragon hatched on the 600th year of that 1000 years. Eragon and Arya are not yet together. Arya is still an elven princess and her mother still queen. The beginning takes place at Dras Leona on the Hatching Day.
"Lord Eragon wake up." The voice came again and this time there was a shake of the shoulder. That got his attention and woke immediately; years of hard work and danger will get somebody up at the simplest touch.
"What…What is it?"
"Saphira couldn't wake you so she asked me."
"Thank you Felicia. I'll get up now."
"Of course Lord Eragon."
Eragon rose out of bed to retrieve one of the few remaining elven tunics he had left from his first visit to the elven forest. He attached his armor then left to meet Saphira who slept in another wing that the dragons slept in.
Eragon entered the dragon hold to behold the giant sapphire dragon. She really grew in the years. Saphira was easily four times bigger than Glaedr was.
"Well partner of my heart are you ready?"
Yes Little One we have 5 eggs out there hopefully we will have one rider added to our ranks.
They took off as one toward the town square that was filled with people, the eggs and their guards. People cheered as the leader of the Riders arrived on the mighty dragoness. Children lined up to touch the eggs. Many were turned down near the end of the afternoon a girl walked up. She looked about 13 or so and touched the purple egg and got it to hatch. It was a truly beautiful dragon. A senior rider took her away after she connected with her dragon. After her the hours ticked by without luck. A tall 15 year old boy with black hair and black eyes was last. He touched each egg and was about to walk away but a crack in the last red egg stopped him dead in his tracks. Not long after a dragon popped out of the egg. He touched his palm to the dragon and bonded with the young dragon. Eragon walked up to the young man, placed a hand on his shoulder, and smiled warmly.
"Welcome to the order young rider."
This is the end of the prologue. I shall have 2 chapters and together they will make up around 2,000 words which I think would be a good read. And another chapter for my other story Father and Son all done by Saturday night or Sunday morning. Review please.
