A new kind of threat

Glabatorix stood in front of his black iron throne as he looked down at four people, two of them clad in dark purple armour almost black one whilst the other in very revealing leather and the last wearing dark robes. One of the dark armoured men stepped forward raising his weapon in the dim room and raised his hand to his chest.

"We shall spare no one will shall bring you their heads and there dragon" the man said from behind his dark helm, he turned on his heel and gestured for his fellows to follow their dark cloaks flowing behind them the king looked out at the window he saw his image he shuddered at what it had cost but he would destroy all who opposed him. He walked out in front of the huge iron doors of his castle and what stood before him was a massive force of men all clad in black metal and leather all finely crafted but the sharp spikes that adorned there armour was fearful at the sight.

The black army let out a loud battle cry the rustling for their mail skirts as there menacing weapons beat upon their breast plates. The man at the front walked towards him and said.

"We dark elves will destroy the Varden as long as you uphold your deal dark rider" The elf said he raised his weapon and order his dark army marched forth in there formations dark clouds formed above them as they marched, there leader sat upon a lizard like creature clad in purple armour, the battle horns blew the end was near.

A week since the feast and Arya sat in her room polishing her sword but her mind was somewhere else not on the war not even her weapon but something else that was troubling her. Why she had kissed Eragon was beyond her knowledge maybe it was the night's cheer that did it.

The sky was filled with dark clouds that blocked out the sun's rays, the land felt cold and harsh and the smell of death hung in the air just as she felt this a loud horn sounded it didn't belong to the Varden or the elves. She looked out from her balcony and she could see a sea of black marching towards the city the horns sounded again and again the banners clear to her Elvin eyes. The city was alive with movement soldiers rushed towards the walls bows and swords ready she could hear Saphira let out an earth shaking roar.

Arya ran up the stairs to the wall next to the elves that had come to aid them all ready with their glorious bows and other equipment ready to be used, she looked out at the large army before the castle all formed in perfectly ordered ranks. One of the soldiers on his lizard like mount stepped forward in front of the army; she saw Nasuada say something to Eragon, Saphira took flight and landed in front of the soldier.

Eragon dismounted Saphira and stood waiting for a reaction, none came the dark armoured soldier jumped from his mount he thrust is weapon into the ground and stored face to face with him. The weapon he wielded was deadly it had a handle with was about five foot in the length with a two foot curved blade covered in runes the bottom of the blade had a spare cross guard separating the blade from the staff. Many of the army wielded these fierce weapons.

"Who are you and what is your purpose here" Eragon asked the soldier store from between his visor his dark eyes could be seen through the tall helm.

"We come to bring your end" The soldier hissed, a sound wind began to blew and howling followed the sky began to darken the army behind him began to chant in some language Eragon could not understand. Saphira let out a roar and let a stream of flame fly at the soldier who moved but not with frying his shoulder plate, his lizard creature was burnt to a crisp letting out a shriek.

A dark mist began to descend from the clouds and form in front of the dark mass before him in began to spin slowly on the floor before expanding rapidly forming into a shape it was slightly hunched its face that of a dragons but with massive horns curving around the sides of its face. Two massive wings shot from its back in a bloom of black mist to its full height it was a giant it matched the height of the tallest tower of the castle. It two on two think legs and its arms huge its whole body shrouded in the black mist and its blazing orange eyes. It let out an ear piercing roar, and so it began.
