Chapter 3- The Spell Book in Teirm

As Eragon rose to the morning air, he walked through town. He walked around looking at the once familiar streets. He thought that he might go and visit Joed. As he headed towards the home of a friend's friend he heard something. Two men were standing in a corner talking to each other. Eragon leaned against a wall and listened.

"How should I know about things such as that?"

"Well, everyone is talking about it. The poor, the rich, the crippled, the whole. There's not one person in Teirm that's not looking for the spell book." The man was giddy was excitement. He was shaking from head to toe.

"How can we find this alleged spell book?" The second man began to become as excited as his friend.

"Well, many people believe that they can search in libraries or archives that contain books. Some think that it'll fall on a certain person at random. However, me, I think that it was shipped here by someone, and that the person that received it is still here in Teirm. News spread quickly for this large town, yet many rumors are also made along the way." Hearing this, Eragon ran to Joed's house. He knocked on the door. He heard a rustling from behind the door and it slid open.

"Eragon! It has been a long time. How goes your journey? There are many questions I would like to ask you. Come in! Come in!" Joed signaled for Eragon to enter. He passed through the door and sat down in a wooden chair that surrounded the table.

"Eragon, how can I help you?" Eragon explained what had happened after he left Teirm last time. Joed sat and absorbed every word. Eragon left out all the unnecessary details, like always. After he was finished, he added in the spell book. Joed leaned back and stroked and imaginary beard.

"Well, Eragon, I might have what you want, but it's not as simple as you think. Here, let me show you." Joed stood up and took a book from the shelf. He gave it to Eragon. As Eragon opened it's covers, he realized something. All the pages were blank. Eragon sat there, turning each page. Also discovering that each page was blank. Not a single trace of anything were in the book's pages.

"The only way to be able to read its pages is to magic. The magic must be of pure of heart. All the spells in that book are said to be extremely powerful and takes up a lot of energy. Also, if it were to be able to possessed by one of unpure heart, its pages will automatically return to being blank." Eragon stared at its pages and placed his hand on it. Ripples flowed over the pages. Slowly, the words of the page began to reveal themselves. Joed stood behind Eragon. He expected Eragon to do that.

"Eragon, since you can reveal the pages, and because I have no use for it, I would like you to have that book."

"Really? But isn't this extremely valuable?"

"Yes, but I have absolutely no use for it. You should take it. Also, when you leave town, make sure no one knows that you have it. If anyone knows that you have it, they hunt you down to get it from you." Eragon nodded and stood up.

"Eragon, I don't mind if you stay a while."

"No, it's okay. I need to leave soon anyways. I'll leave early in the morning to make sure no one knows I have the book."

"Good. Bye Eragon." Eragon left and contacted Saphira.

Saphira, you'll never guess what I just got.

What?

A spell book from Joed. It's supposed to be extremely powerful. SInce I have it, we have to leave in the morning.

As you say Little One. However, are you able to read the text in it?

Yea, and if I don't Arya and Orik can always help. How long do you think it will take to get to Farthen Dur?

If you only fly on me, it might take a week.

Good. Good night Saphira.

Good night LIttle One. Eragon went to sleep once again. As the sun rose in the morning, Eragon left. He headed towards Saphira's hiding place and leaped onto her back. As they soared throught the sky, the had small conversations. As night began to fall, they landed by Leona Lake. As they made camp, Eragon prepared their dinner. As Saphira lied down to sleep, Eragon took out the spell book. He placed his hands on the first page and rippes emitted from the book. Word became visible and Eragon sat there in amazement as he scanned the pages.

One page in particular caught his attention. The page was mainly about being able to bend the elements of nature to one's will. To bend fire was Brizaltor. To bend water was Adurlan. To bend air and wind was Durgaz. To bend the earth was Delosma. And to bend light was Goztena. Eragon sat their reading and rereading the pages. Finally he fell asleep and dozed off into a world of dreams...


Brizaltor, Adurlan, Durgaz, Delosma, and Goztena are of my own creation. These are the ones that I have created on my own.
