Eragon awoke early the morning after the battle of The Burning Plains. Eragon was stiff, sore, and very tired. As he sped up his hard beat and awoke form his 'sleep' a voice rang in his head.

"Good morning little one. You know we have to go tell Nasusada about our decision to track the Ra'zac"

"That's right" Eragon said

"Roran" Eragon called

His cousin, who had spent the night on a pallet on the other side of the tent, awoke and rubbed his eyes. "What" He said drearily

"Im going to Nasusada the we're leaving you should pack some food, blankets and anything else you may need"

"Fine" was his only reply

Eragon walked out of his tent missing the familiar weight of Zar'oc at his side. He was shocked when he gazed at Saphira and saw that she was covered in dried blood. Then he remembered that he had to heal her wounds and his own.

"Oh no! I forgot to heal your injuries! Here let me do it now."

"Don't tire your self out"

"Don't worry I'm feeling much better."

After he finished Eragon and Saphira left their tent and headed towards Nasusada's Pavilion. As they arrived Eragon noticed Arya talking to Nasusada. Ayra was wearing a tight emerald green tunic with dark green leggings. Her attire matched her form perfectly, highlighting her elvish beauty, and bringing out her eyes.

"Hello Algretlam" said Nasusada

"Good morning Eragon-vodhr", said Arya strolling out of the tent with her natural feline-like grace.

"I have come to inform you that I will soon be departing." Said Eragon

"Yes Arya was just telling me that Oromis would be expecting you after the battle", said Nasusada.

He will be expecting us, but there is something more pressing than my studies. I must travel to Helgrind and help my cousin save his wife to be, who was captured by the Raz'ac and it is important to rescue her as soon as possible.

"Eragon you know that Galbatorix will strike again soon. We mustn't spare a day. Its imperative that you finish your training as soon as possible, even more so now that there is another rider." Said Nasusada

"I know," said Eragon," But I need to do this."

"If you must then I cannot stop you. I guess that it will do some good to rid ourselves of the Raz'ac."

Leaving the Pavilion, Eragon passed Arya who was waiting on him to finish his meeting with Nasusada. He told her of his plans to attack Helgrind.

"Would you consider allowing me to accompany you to Helgrind? I believe that I could be of some use against the Ra'zac." Said Arya

"I appreciate your offer Arya svit-kona, and I'm sure that your skills would come in handy, but I think that Roran and I should go alone.

"I understand Eragon-vor" said Arya

"Eragon-vor? Whats that about?" said Eragon curiously.

"What? You don't consider us friend even after all we've been thru" asked Arya looking troubled.

"Of course I do I just wasn't expecting it" replied Eragon.

Eragon felt Roran approaching and he turned around to greet him.

"Eragon!" Bellowed Roran " I've been looking for you ever since you woke me up! You're taking all day Katrina could be dying!

"Alright I'm coming. I just have to go ask Nasusada to loan me a sword, I'm in neet of one ever since Zar'oc was… lost." Eragon had been trying not to think discoveries of the day before.

"Here Eragon", said Arya and Eragon's heart stopeed as he saw Arya start to remove her belt.

Then Eragon realized that she was removing her sheath.

"With your strength the swords the Varden have wouldn't last a minute in battle; take this until you can get another sword", said Arya, offering him her sword.

"Thank you Arya", replied Eragon, hopeing she didn't see him blushing. Fixing Arya's sword to his belt Eragon strode over to Roran.

"There is still one more thing that I have to do before we leave. Meet me and Saphira at our tent in a half hour."

"Ok, but hurry"

Eragon and Saphira made their way to Angela's tent. On the way Eragon was stoped by a tearey eyed Orik. Eragon explained to Orik about leaving for Helgrind.

"Just try to make it back in time for Hrothgar's funeral. It's in 2 weeks."

"I'll be there" Eragon assured the gloomy dewarf

Eragon finally made it to his destination. Upon entering Angela's tent he saw Elva laying on a bed drenched in sweat and bearly breathing, and Angela sitting over her wipeing her face with a damp cloth.

"What happened to her" asked Eragon agast.

"She has been like this since yesterday before the battle. Have you come to heal her?"

"Yes." He said. Angela stood to make room as Eragon approached the bed.

Eragon placed the hand with the Gedway Ignasia over Elva's brow and, adopting the ancient language, said,"may the curse that was placed on this child be removed."

Suddenly Elva opened her violet eyes.

"How do you feel?" Eragon asked

"Fine! You did it shadeslayer you removed the curse!"

"Eragon, Saphira chimed in, don't forget you said you'd meet Roran.

"Thats right I had forgotten!"

Turning back to Angela Eragon said "As I promised I have fixed my error. I would love to stay and talk with you, but I something urgent calls my attention. Shall I see both of you at Hrothgar's funeral?"

"We shall be there Eragon"said Angela.

Eragon said farewell and headed to his own tent to meet Roran

When He got there Roran was pacing in front of his tent.

"Finally I though you had gotten lost."

Eragon mounted Saphira; followed closly by Roran. "Hold on" Eragon said as Saphira spread her wings and they sped towards the sky.
