I am so surprised that I got so many Reviews, you guys are awesome!!! R/R BTW I apparently I need more detail, I am going to try.

back at Muratgh's house

"W-what happened?" asked Murtagh in a haze,"Where am I?"

"You are back at the house, Murtagh."replied Thorn

Murtagh looked at his surroundings, and saw that he was laying on his bed. He saw rays of light coming from the window, and assumed that it was early morning.

"I feel better, don't you?" inquired Thorn

Murtagh had to think more about his surroundings, before he remembered what had happened.

"Now that you mention it, I do feel better, but a little dazed."

"I am sure you are dazed, after Islanzadi did the spell you past out for 4 days, with a fever."

"Four days!?!" yelled Murtagh in a trance

Thorn laughed at Murtagh's face, before Eragon entered.

"Oh your awake, how are you feeling?" asked Eragon

"Better, what time is it?" replied Murtagh

"About 9:00A.M."

At that Murtagh got out of bed and started getting dressed in proper attire. Murtagh pulled on a black tunic, and then fell to the ground with a thud.

"What are you doing." asked Eragon

"I am going...to Islanzadi...to thank her...Coming Thorn?"stated Murtagh with effort

"Yes, I will come as soon as you stop, you just woke up from four days of thrashing and fever." replied Thorn

"Yes...but Thorn...I have to thank her...She just turned my life around."Said the exasperated Murtagh

"No, Murtagh, Thorn is right! You need to rest. I could get her to come here." stated Eragon

Murtagh agreed, and at that Eragon left to get Islanzadi.

After Eragon got Islanzadi

"Murtagh?"asked Islanzadi

Murtagh was reading on the couch, he looked flushed, but better then he had when Eragon has left.

"Oh, Islanzadi." Murtagh sat up on his haunches and motioned for her to come closer,"I just wanted to thank you for all you have done for Thorn and I, because you didn't have to."

"Murtagh, it is no trouble at all, and I am sorry for the spell making you sick. The shock was just to much for you, and you body had trouble fixing itself to the new name."

"That is fine Islanzadi, It was well worth it to have that pigs presence taken out of my mind."

Then Murtagh remembered the army that Eragon and him had seen before he passed out.

"What about the army, what happened with them?"

The questions continued to flow like that for a while before Eragon spoke...

"Stop with your questions Murtagh, all is fine. As soon as Galbatorix lost control over you, he told his generals to come back, that it was not worth trying."

Relief washed over Murtagh's already pale face in a wave of humanity.

"Thank you again queen Islanzadi. I don't know how, but I will repay you for your hospitality."

"There is nothing to thank." and at that Islanzadi left Eragon and Murtagh in the silent room.

Eragon and Murtagh talked late into the afternoon. The sun was setting in the room is blasts of oranges and pinks before Eragon took his leave.

Late that night at Murtagh's house.

"Thorn?"questioned Murtagh

"Yes Murtagh."answered Thorn groggily, "wait, why are you still awake? You have been ill, and should be building back strength, and-"

"I just can't sleep." replied Murtagh"I am dreadfully tired, but cannot get thoughts off of my mind long enough to slumber."

"What is on your mind?" asked Thorn yawning

"Well, about what Eragon had said when we first arrived. He said that we weren't brothers, and it hurt me, do you think that now that I am on his side that he will accept it, and something else..."

"Well, I suggest that you let Eragon decide when the time is right to accept that fact and what else, dare I ask?"

"I can't stop thinking about her..."

"Who, you have charmed to many ladies for me to keep track, which do you speak of?" asked Thorn in a mocking tone

"You know who I speak of! I speak of the girl I fell in love with at Galbatorix's castle! Her name was Violet."

"Aw, I remember now, she was the kings first servant. You to were hardly separable."

"I know, I miss her dearly, I wish that I could bring her here. She would love it here."said Murtagh in a saddened tone.

"Well, we can't very well get her in the middle of the night, so try and get some sleep, and we will dwell on her when you are better."

"As usual, Thorn, you are right. I will dwell on this in the morning."

At this statement, Murtagh turned on his side and fell asleep, thinking of the red head fair maiden he had fallen in love with.

Aw, this outta make things interesting, a love interest. I bet you can't wait to find out what will happen in the next chapter. R/R
