Chapter 3
Several hours later after Izlandi had broken murtaghs vows to Galbatorix murtagh and eragon were lying down in a medow discussing pass events and all that had happened. Suddenly there was a bright flash of light and a white dragon egg appered in front of eragon and murtagh. AHH!! They both yelled simultaneously.
"Saphira come. A dragon egg has appeared! Quickly!"
"WHAT!!!? Little one I am coming immediately."
Several seconds later both saphira and Thorn appeared. They saw the egg and growled.
"It might be a trap little one."
Eragon reached forward slowly and then grasped the egg. Suddenly it started to crack. After several minutes of furtive scratching a white head appeared out of the egg. A white scaly body soon followed it. Suddenly eragon felt another presence within his mind. He realized that it was the dragon. The dragon had hatched for him. While murtagh stared at this uncomprehendingly eragon mulled it over within his mind.
"Saphira do you understand what happened?"
"No little one I am just as startled as you."
After several minutes of gawping both eragon and murtagh mounted their dragons(eragon did NOT mount the white one!!!) they quickly flew back to oromis and then together the three riders flew to Izlandi. When asked both oromis and Izlandi were just as puzzled as the young riders.
"Never before has this happened in the history of the Riders. To have two dragons, its just unfathomable." Said oromis.
"Well now that it has hatched there is not much we can do about it." Responded Izlandi.
Soon after several hours of debating everyone came to a unanimous vote. Eragon would keep the dragon. It was that night that Eragon realized that he would be the most powerful rider ever once his new dragon grew. He would have powers beyond Galbatorix, even beyond murtagh as he would have an enormous store of magic. On that happy thought he went to sleep.
In the morning when Eragon awoke he felt better than he had felt in a long time. He looked over to the temporary crib where the white dragon was sleeping. He decided that he would spend the day with it. When the dragon finally awoke he tried to speak to it. To his surprise it spoke back.
"Ah finally awake Eragon?" said the little dragon.
Eragon was immensely surprised as it had taken several days for saphira to begin to speak.
"Ah yes but what you never knew was that white dragons are the most powerful of all and that we grow at a much faster rate than any other dragon."
"Okay, okay but what shall I call you… Ah I know would Hrothgar be all right. It was the name of my adopted father. He was a great man."
"Yes it will do."
It was then that Eragon noticed that the dragon had grown several feet over the night
Suddenly eragon remembered what solembum had told him long ago
"If ever in search of a weapon look under the menoa tree."
So Eragon grabbed Hrothgar and then let him go outside. Hrothgar it seemed already knew how to fly. He took off into the sky probably looking for saphira. After several seconds Eragon ran to the Menoa tree. He left his mind and began mentally foraging beneath the tree. Finally after several minutes of searching he detected a sword shaped object. He parted the dirt above it and then said "Thrysta" suddenly a current of air picked up the sword in the deep whole and deposited it in Eragon's hands. He saw that the sword was in an elaborate sheath studded with gems. When he pulled out the sword it made barely a sound. As he saw it he gasped. It was white like Hrothgar and yet the other side was blue like Saphira. It was then that he noticed in the handle the words ERAGON engraved. He swung the sword a little and was amazed that it was perfectly balanced and felt like it had been made for him. Suddenly a white dragon flew down grinning. It took eragon a few seconds to understand what he was seeing. In front of him stood Hrothgar except for one thing. The dragon was now the size of saphira. Eragon gawped.
" How did you do that?" he asked amazed.
"I told, us white dragons grow really fast. Wanna go for a ride?"
Hrothgar bent down gently to allow eragon to mount him. Then he flew off. They traveled all over Ellesmera. It was then that eragon noticed the giant black army heading for The elven city. He and Hrothgar dived down then suddenly…
