The Varden lay ablaze; Galbatorix ruled the land of Alagaesia. No one opposed Galbatorix, he was now unstoppable. The elves ran in fright, and the dwarves and men of Farthen-Dur have fallen. All hell has broken loose at the land of Alagaesia. Only one man rules… which is King Galbatorix. He has found Eragon's true name, now he has two riders in his side. Murtagh and Eragon… the world of Alagaesia has been conquered. Now Galbatorix sends Eragon to conquer other lands… starting with Britain… This is how it all began… this is the Crusade.
