MY DEAR LADY: This goes back to Eldest and Brisinger when Eragon was being taught by Oromis, this story is about Eragon chosing a mate that is not truly in the is something that seemed like it would make a good story. please make alowences for it since this is my first fanfiction. Please remember to review. I am going to let you name the babies. Eragon and Florin are about to have Twins. So i want you to put in the review what you think would be could elvish sounding names for the babies. you also get to decide whiether it be boys, girls or one of each.
Eragon lay sleeping in his bed when he woke suddenly to the sound of somebody coming up to his quarters, looking to the door way he instantly reached for Saphira forgetting where he was for a moment, and then he saw her and was lost in her beautiful eyes, he had seen her only once but he knew who she was, this very special lady was Master Oromis's daughter. He akwardly got up to meet her thinking that Oromis must have sent her to get him, then with concern in his eyes, he looked at her and asked "is something wrong? is Master Oromis alright? are we needed?" "No, No, he's fine, i didn't mean to frighten you!" she replied laughing. He sighed with relief he laughed to, saying "seeing you made me think that Oromis might have sent u to get me!" "no i came here because i wanted to talk to you!" surprised " what about." "Well i have been thinking about it for along time and i ran it passed my father, and he agrees to what i wanted as long as you agree, i have decided to ask you if you would like to become my lifetime mate!" "Wow, this is the opportunity of a life time, well okay i would love to have you for a mate." Eragon replied pleased! "good, then we will announce our union tomorrow night at the blood oath celebration so that we can bind ourselves to each other as mates." she exclaimed, and started for the door with a spring to her step, "wait, may i be the one to tell Arya and Oromis?" "you may." excited he asked saphira about her thought about it. 'you know that i approve of what has been said or i would have said so before you had, i think she might do you some good.' then with thoughts of Lady Florin he found he could not go back to sleep so he got up and walked down to the monoa tree to think better about he was down there he found Arya and smiled he reaced out his mind to her to let her know he was there. she turned from her spot by the tree and smiled and said "what are you doing down here, you ought to be sleeping!" "I couldn't sleep, because my mind is full of excitment, Lady Florin has just asked me to be her mate!" he explained. He saw Arya smile in surprise and then she asked and "what did you tell her?" she asked couriously. "well I accepted!" "Saphira agrees that she is exactly the kind of mate i need, she is strong, beautiful and a riders daughter!"
I haven't told anyone else yet, as we plan to announce everything tomorrow night at the celebration!"she turned and hugged him and congradulated him.
Then he noticed after awhile that it was time to go to his fencing lesson. Grinning he ran all the way there and took his stand in front of his fencing instructor. After staring at each other for a while he attacked by swinging Zar'roc toward his side and then when he moved to block it stuck towards his head, before he was blocked, he saw a soft spot under his chin where he smiled and tried to keep him from noticing where he eyes had gone and struck him on the leg before bringing his sword up toward the elfs chin only to have the sword parried to the side, he saw when he looked a smirk on the elf's face. At the moment the two of them were to well matched to get near each other. Soon the fencing match turned into a blur as they both tried to get passed the other's defences. Eragon knew that had become a battle of wits as well as strength. For now they were trying to outsmart each other to see which one could think of a more clever way to fight and battle each other. Then unbidden Florin's face came to his mind and he smiled as he found a new motive to prove that he was as strong as elf and possibly almost as smart. With her image in his head he continued to fight hard until he finally brought his sword down upon the elfs shoulder and then brought the blade to the elf's neck and he realized after a while that he had won the fencing lesson that day.
At Oromis's Hut, he worked on learning first his spells, but all he could think about at the moment was Florin, his new mate. When Eragon had told Oromis that he had accepted her, Oromis had placed a palm upon his head and gave him his blessing and then warned him to please take good care of the elf, "I plan to send the girl with you to the varden now that she is your mate, i would not dream of trying to keep you two apart and having her in the camp will give you something to go back to camp for and maybe even something to fight for if you know she is in the camp with you! I will make sure that she won't fight the soldiers or anything unless she has to do so, she is there to give you motivation!" Then they had started the lessons for the day.
Finally, it was time for the celebration, Eragon watched the elves dance and sing until the danger was gone and he was able to finally able to take the spell off his ears and really pay attention, for now he was waiting for Lady Florin to announce their union. And then he saw her come forward and strech out her hand to him to come forward, and nervous he stood and approached her and once he stood before everyone Florin began to speak " now dear elves everyone knows that is custom for elves to choose a mate by the time they turn six and twelve and you know my father has brought forward many an elf for me to choose for a mate, but i felt nothing for any of these suitors, but dear elves I have finally found myself the mate I was waiting for all my life, I have choosen to take Eragon Shadeslayer for my mate!" all over the courtyard loud clapping and cheering could be heard at the news that one of their own had choosen a dragon rider for their mate! At the sound of the loud clapping his nerves calmed considerably to were he was finally able to speak now that everyone was starring at him, in the ancient language he began" "I Eragon Shadeslayer swear an oath that i will try my hardest to be worthy of an elf." Soon the celebration began with wine, food and several people getting up to toast the union of the two of them. Then finally Queen Islanzadi came forward and took both of the hands and placed them together and muttered a spell in the ancient language that would bind them as mates until one of the died. When he finally went to bed she followed him to his bed and Eragon told Saphira to find somewhere else to sleep for a little while so that they could have some privacy. He heard her grumple but she did as she asked and went off to hunt. With her gone, Eragon wrapped an arm around her and kissed her and he found himself in awe as they made love that night until morning and both of them were spent, Master Oromis had given him a day off all of his lessons so that the two of them could have some time to be alone together for the first time as mates. And the two of them used their time to do just that, they didn't get any sleep until that night since he knew he needed to in order to get through his lessons in the morning.
The next morning he woke up and went down to talk to Oromis since tomorrow he would be leaving Ellesmera for the Varden, and it was crucial that he learn as much as possible before he went back to the Varden so that he would be ready to fight if he needed to. They all continued talking about ways to fight and about his plans as to leaving the next morning. For once Florin was not around for she was to busy packing for the journey, she had also taken to packing his and saphira's things and when he had protested about earlier she had explained that it was her job as a woman. So without anymore arguments he had left her to do as she wished. When they had exhausted their conversation he went off to make sure Orik was ready for departure and to talk to Islanzadi about any last minute things that needed to be seen to.
The next morning the four of them finally set out for the Varden which took about a few days since they flew with out stopping to eat or sleep. The slept only in the saddle. So when she finally touched down at the place where the Varden was camped they all immediatly went for food and water, and only then did they set out for Lady Neusuada's tent where they found the Arya was already waiting for them. Seeing Nusuada and Elva's eyes upon Florin he quickly explained to them who she was and why she was there. They relaxed when the finally understood the Eragon finally had a mate and that he had brought her back with happiness was very easy to detect in his face.
When the battle began he had asked her to remain inside the tent only leaving it if the tent became dangerous. He thought she would refuse and was relieved to see that she would do as he had asked of her. With his mind eased he went out on Saphira to fight, and soon they were fighting another dragon and after awhile he tore the black mask off of the rider and realized that it was Murtaugh, and was filled with disappointment and betrayel at thatmoment. The two fought until he took hold of him with magic and stole Zar'roc from him and killed the Dwarf King. With out thinking he pleaded with Murtagh and told him about his new mate. "Murtagh please, don't do this when i have barely had time to enjoy my new mate. The Murtagh told him about him being his brother and that his father was Morzen." Only then did he release Eragon and the battle ended for the day, he ran first to his mate and then to Nesuada to tell her and his cousin who had just arrived about what Murtaugh had said to him. Then he told Roran about Florin and was pleased when Roran hugged him and congradulated him and asked him to help him find and fight the Raz'zac.
As he lay in bed one night after being with the Varden for a week now, he wondered what Brom would have thought if he knew about Florin and about Murtagh. He was surprised by the way things had happened himself. He was sitting and sharpening the sword while talking to Angela when Florin came running to him and threw her arms around him, "Eragon, something amazing has happened, I'm preganat!" she exclaimed. Eragon sprang up and pulled her into his arms hugging her, "that reat. Do you know how far along you are? so that we know how much longer we have till we are parents?" he asked. "I am three weeks pregnant, which means it happened the night we were bonded to each other!" "Wow!
