PART TWO: TOLNEDRA

Chapter Twelve

Some weird stuff happens. It is obvious to the reader who Garion really is, but Garion is too stupid to realize it for himself. David Eddings laughs at the fact that he has made Garion stupid.

Chapter Thirteen

The troupe members see Brill the Ubiquitous One again. Then they get captured by some random guy.

Chapter Fourteen

They escape.

Chapter Fifteen

The troupe arrives at Tol Honeth. Polgara and Belgarath argue about fashion.

Chapter Sixteen

The troupe members meet Emperor Ran Borune. Belgarath and Polgara tell him that Murgos are infiltrating Tolnedra and will a fat problem when Torak wakes up. Ran Borune pretends not to listen. Ce'Nedra shows up and is bratty. Asharak the Murgo stalker a.k.a. Chamdar shows up, but does nothing.

Chapter Seventeen

Some random guy is poisoned because he isn't in the same political party as his murderers. Bethra the spy/assassin/prostitute shows up and tells the troupe that Asharak/Chamdar is supposedly working for Ctuchik of the Unpronounceable Name, but not really, and that he is controlling Grand Duke Kador, who is closest to becoming the next emperor. The reader is either completely fascinated or utterly confused. Belgarath drinks some ale.

Chapter Eighteen

The troupe leaves Tol Honeth. Princess Ce'Nedra posing as some random person shows up with Jeebers the tutor. Jeebers suddenly realizes that he could be charged for kidnap and so runs away. Ce'Nedra is very bratty.

Chapter Nineteen

The troupe goes into the Wood of the Dryads. Ce'Nedra tries to flirt with Garion while naked. Garion tries to be prim.

Chapter Twenty

Some clay men attack, only they're actually snakes sent by Salmissra with lots of mud and clay all over them. Durnik is obviously in love with Polgara. Everyone either doesn't notice or doesn't care.

Chapter Twenty-One

Some Dryads show up. They tell the troupe members that Zedar went through the Wood a week before with a little boy. The plot comes out of hiding and thickens. Ce'Nedra starts crying brattily because she has to be part of the troupe. The reader thinks she's been spoiled just a tad too long.

Chapter Twenty-Two

Mandorallen is afraid that he will be afraid while fighting hypothetical enemies. Grand Duke Kador shows up spontaneously. He tries to kill Ce'Nedra, but fails. Asharak/Chamdar shows up. Garion starts talking to the voice in his head. He kills Asharak/Chamdar when he finds out that Asharak/Chamdar killed his parents. Garion's future is blatantly obvious to the reader, but somehow not to him or anyone else who doesn't already know. Oh, the dramatic irony.
