Ch.11 The Heart of Hearts
Jamie sat in her room with no shirt on. Her golden locket rested on her chest at her heart. It was cold til it started to speak to her in her mind. -Jamie you have done well as a leader you'd make a rider yet. All you'll need is a dragon!- "Glaedr, it is true that I've grown a lot in 5 months but I am not worthy for such an honor." -you need to be ready remember Saphira fears that Eragon may die soon.- Glaedr reminded. There was a knock at her door. It was Xaldin, his face was grim.
He said "There's a stranger at the gates, he wishes to speak with you alone." Jamie said "Very well let him, escort here and remind him he's being watched." "Yes beloved Superior. Right away." Glaedr said -I hope I didn't jinx anything... that might as well be Murtagh bearing the unfortunate news.- "Glaedr!" Jamie hissed. They fell silent as Xaldin walked in with the guest. Jamie smiled to him and said "Murtagh nice of you to visit." Murtagh bowed low out of respect of his old friend's new position.
"No need from you. Xaldin do you mind... old friends need to speak in privet." Xaldin nodded and stepped outside closing the door behind him. Jamie said "Judging by the look on your face the news is grave is it?" they both heard Glaedr say -opes- Murtagh said "Eragon is dieing and requested you as well as me at his side... please." Jamie said "Xaldin!" the Knight poked his head in and said "Yes Superior?" "Call a meeting STAT!" Jamie said "Yes Superior right way" Jamie knew she had to tell the truth now...
