Song: Lacrymosa by Evanescence
Arya thinks of what she did at the Agaetí Blödhren and hopes she has done the right thing.
Out on your own
Cold and alone again
Can this be what you really wanted, baby?
Two days after the Agaetí Blödhren, Arya laid on her bed looking up at the ceiling. Eragon's face after she rejected him blinking in front of her eyes, it had been haunting her dreams. She truly hoped she had done the right thing.
Blame it on meSet your guilt free
Nothing can hold you back now
They couldn't be together, not so close to the war, that's what she told herself, hoping to free both herself and Eragon from the guilt they carried on their shoulders for feeling what they felt towards each other.
Now that you're gone I feel like myself againGrieving the things I can't repair and willing…
She so wanted to go back in time and make Eragon fall out of love for her and not cause the hurt she caused him, even though she knew that it was impossible, the hurt and pain and mistakes were marked on their skins.
To let you blame it on meAnd set guilt free
I don't want to hold you back now love
I can't change who I am
Not this time, I won't lie to keep you near me
She had made that mistake before, she had killed Faölin trying to keep him with her, she couldn't bear if she did the same to Eragon.
And in this short life
There's no time to waste on giving up
My love wasn't enough
Eragon was so young, he had a whole lifetime to live, if she returned his love, he would get stuck with her, she would held his head under the water and keep him from living his life.
And you can blame it on meJust set your guilt free, honey
I don't want to hold you back now love
Tears slipped through her porcelain face as she kept repeating on her head that what she had done was for the best…to the two of them.
