Hello again, my lovely (if limited) readers! Here's one for our lovely friend Arya! But enough about her... How's life going for you guys? Having fun? *pauses a moment* Fantastic! Me too! Now let us begin. Just take note that each chapter is an individual incident, and that there is no storyline whatsoever. Muahahahaha...
Of all the occurrences in Alagaesia, this was the one I least expected to happen. Obviously, I should have taken preemptive action, but by now, it is far too late. Now that the Battle of the Burning Plains has reached its conclusion, I am forced to deal with Eragon, and his juvenile affections. Him, Eragon, pursuing me, Arya! But really, I'm quite saddened by the turn of events that has ended our friendship. Even though I promised him not long before the start of the conflict that it would continue, there is no way in which it won't be affected.
Affected… the perfect word to describe me. I can no longer pretend, even to myself, that I am recovered from my imprisonment in Gil'ead. Mother saw through me straight away, but with all of this talk of love… if Faolin had lived, perhaps I might still be capable of it. But he is dead, as am I.

"A Newly Broken Vessel"
.
Across terrain of all color,
I walk alone.
Long ago did I determine the
Futility
Of love, for it is
Wasted
On me.
Others around me
Live it,
Use it,
Feel it,
And revel in it,
But think me odd as I
Spurn it.
But as
Only I know, love is
Eternity.
An eternity that I can
Certainly fathom, but that I will
Never again experience.
A weakness,
An opening
For those who truly wish to
Cause agony
To exploit.
In the past,
I loved.
Passion was as much a
Part of me as
Anything else.
But now I am broken.
A graceful ship,
Cast wrathfully into
The roiling depths
Of a crystal blue sea.
I can never be reclaimed.
But love,
Like eternity,
Won't ever harm me again.
Anyone like it? Hate it? Want to put in a request for delicious baked items?

Thanks! I have a whole bunch of poetry just lying around doing nothing, so I was all like "Hmm... What the hey?" Just a few tweaks and hooray! Zomg I rhymed... (Although this particular poem was written specifically for the fanfic. I was too lazy to tweak one so I made one.) And I'm glad you love my cupcakes. I do too!
