A/N: I don't really know what to say, so I'm just going to tell you to read the authors note at the end of the story and to vote on the next one.
Disclaimer: We all know I don't own Eragon, because if I did, Brom probably wouldn't have died.
MURTAGH'S REGRETS
Why did I do it? Why did I become a servant to the king? I could have kept him out of mind. I could have made sure he didn't find out what my true name was. Oh, who am I kidding? I can't keep him out. He will always know what I am doing.
I had no choice but to serve him. I hated killing the dwarf king, and having to fight my brother. But I had no choice. Galbatorix is too strong for me to fight. So why does Eragon fight him? He stands about as much chance as I did. All of the Varden are going to die, along with the elves and dwarves. They stand no chance. So why do they fight?
I know why. They fight because they still have hope that they can win. They fight because they know that if they don't, the people of Alagaesia will have no chance at all to be free from the fate that they face. I only wish I could join them. But I know that's impossible. I can never join them now. I only wish there was some way I could help. But all I can do is make it worse.
I regret everything I've done. I regret killing Hrothgar. I regret trying to capture Eragon. I regret forcing Thorn to join Galbatorix. I regret hurting so many people. I regret joining Galbatorix. I regret it, but I can't do anything about it.
I wish none of this had ever happened, but it's to late. There's nothing I can do.
I regret it.
