Eragon is about a boy who finds a dragon egg, and becomes a Dragon Rider, who were thought to be extinct expect for the evil king, Galbitorax. He leaves his hometown after his uncle is killed; being taught by Brom, a Rider whose dragon was killed. Eventually they join the Varden, a rebel group hiding with the dwarves, under the mountains.
There is a great battle just after they arrive, and Eragon and Saphira (Eragon's dragon) win the battle, though Eragon is crippled in the process. Eragon travels to the Elven forest under Queen Islanzadi's rule, where an unknown disabled Rider and his dragon agree to teach them. Eragon is granted healing for his body through ancient means, and is just getting used to his new body, which is even better than before.
Lupin and Derk traveled through the fog, heading through a portal into a beautiful green forest with humongous trees. A tall man Derk recognized as an elf jumped at their arrival.
"Who are you?" he asked, annoyed.
"Uh, hi," Lupin began warily. "We're looking for someone called Eragon, or Oromis?" The elf stiffened in surprise.
"Eragon and Saphira? I think I had best take you two to Queen Islanzadi." He led them through the forests of Ellesmera, explaining all about the elf capital along the way. Lupin had the distinctive feeling that the elf that was leading them was naturally chatty.
When they reached the Queen's court it looked like she was in an important meeting, but instantly stopped as the elf who was leading them whispered something in her ear. Islanzadi looked alarmed at him, and then stood up. She made a strange gesture, and suddenly two guards seized them and she asked, in an icy voice that chilled them both to the bone,
"Where did you learn about Oromis?"
"Uh, uh, some guy called Chrestomanci," Lupin stuttered, suddenly wondering if this was such a good idea. The swords the guards carried looked sharp. The Elf Queen's face flashed with recognition, and Lupin and Derk felt a glimmer of hope, only to have it crushed again when her face turned into a mask of hatred.
"You're lying." She hissed so venomously that Lupin and Derk both shivered. "To the jail, until they are ready to confess!" The guards both nodded solemnly, and carried the wizard and werewolf off to a grimy prison.
After the first shock of getting thrown into a prison cell was over, they both tried various ways of trying to get out. Nothing worked, not even brute strength. The magic they had thrown at the door had just been absorbed. They sat down, panting after their last failed attempt.
"Nothing works. Where ever we are, they're used to magic," Lupin grumbled.
"I guess all we have left to do is wait to be rescued," concluded Derk with a sigh.
"What? We're in a strange world and the person here that knows about us is that elf who showed us to the Queen, and he isn't about to rescue us."
"I was talking about Chrestomanci."
Lupin was about to tell him off for trusting Chrestomanci so completely, the man had gotten them thrown into a jail after all, but stopped at the look on Derk's face. It was one of absolute trust. Lupin wished he could have an attitude like that, until he remembered about Harry. Lupin knew, no matter what, that Harry would rescue the last of his father's true friends. He leaned back, relaxed, to wait.
