Well welcome to my new story. For those of you who are reading this and don't know what's going on I suggest you read my first story: Rise of the Riders
"I… It can't be!" Kuldr exclaimed, his face in awe
"What is it Kuldr-Elda?" Asked Aninya but she got no answer
Kuldr was already running towards the dragon, he arrived in a quick time and stopped in front of the dragon. "How?" he asked the dragon before focusing his attention to talk to the Eldunari "Umaroth, you know who this is right?" he asked in a serious tone
"Yes… how could I not know him, he was one of the greatest in the order!" Umaroth replied
Kuldr shifted his attention again "How did you survive?!" he asked again, waiting for a response "Last I saw you was when you joined the fight, diving at Formora and Kialandi, bringing them and their nameless down off the edge of the island, I didn't see much after that" Kuldr told him
"I drove them off the edge of the island and into the sea, near the base of the cliffs, out of the range of the flash, what happened then was they knocked me unconscious as I was distracted by the flash and they threw me in the water. I drifted across the sea and landed on a shore when I finally awoke. When I did rise I had not the energy to return and I was found by a pack of wild dragons who took me in, being a wild dragon myself I was accustomed to the lifestyle and that's where I stayed, I'd forgotten everything about Alagaesia till a few months ago when the magic of the Eldunari lifted from my head as it did for you as well. I asked around for a general direction. In the pack of about seven dragons and me, only one knew the direction that Alagaesia was in. As it turns out I had landed in a place far to the west of Alagaesia across the great sea, there were dragons and many animals but not a high amount of people, any we came upon were barbaric in their terms, they feared and attacked us on sight and kept trying to ambush us and kill us off. It was the same type of war as the Elven-Dragon war from long ago but they had no magic, and only primitive weapons made of stone so it wasn't really a fair fight. The dragons were kind enough to lend me enough energy to return to Alagaesia without need for food or drink or rest, although a few bites of fish helped a lot. The journey took three weeks to get to the western edge of Alagaesia and my first priority was to return to 'Doru Araeba'. However I realised that there was nothing there upon arrival and I travelled to Ristvak'baen, the watchtower where a rider was always stationed and I saw nothing but blood and death in that once honourable place. In the end I did not know of what had happened till I travelled to Du Weldenvarden, Ellesmera to be precise and I was filled in by the Great Witch on what had happened, I stayed in the Crags of Tel'naeir for some time after that, resting up and regaining the strength I had lost. Finally I set off for this place, I was told that I would find the last of the old riders here and so it is true… I am sorry for your loss Kuldr" the green dragon explained
"Thank you…It is a pleasure to see you again old friend, will you be joining us here on the island Vilden?" Kuldr asked him
"Eragon has offered me a place as well, and I think I shall accept" Vilden responded, he changed his attention to Eragon "I would like to meet the students then their dragons Eragon" he informed him, Vilden opened his mind to the Eldunari while he spoke to Eragon, gaining many words of welcome from his fallen comrades.
"Of course Vilden-Elda, I will see that there is food and drink brought out for you at the marquee" Eragon told him before sending some of the elves to bring some food and drink, Eragon then gathered the students.
After meeting the students Vilden turned his attention to the dragons. He first met Arnos' dragon, a small, she was white dragon by the name of Hervera, what she lacked in size she made up in strength, she was one of the three able to breath fire, a pure red flame, same as the eyes of Arnos. Soon after meeting Hervera he met another female dragon called Vermora. Vermora was an orange dragon, the tallest of the group and the fastest as well, she manoeuvred well in the air, better than any of the other dragons but she couldn't breathe fire yet.
The next dragon he saw was one belonging to Dim, a male dragon the same colour as Dim's grey eyes named Rhust, coincidentally he was the smallest of the group but the longest from head to tail. Rhust couldn't breathe fire yet either, he had sharp spikes running across the top of his wings, a rare breed of dragon that were the deadliest in the air. Bray's dragon, was a tall, purple dragon with razor sharp teeth and breathed a brilliant dark blue fire. Clovis' dragon matched him, it was small, fast and wasn't strong, it was designed to outmanoeuvre and attack with agility rather than strength, it was a brown dragon that breathed orange fire. Vilden greeted the rest of the dragons and students before greeting the teachers and elves. Together they returned to the feast, everybody obsessed with Vilden, trying to know more about him. Time passed quickly and soon everyone grew weary, in small groups everyone left until Eragon, Murtagh, Kuldr and Blodhgarm were left standing outside.
"Who'd have thought that there were more dragons" Eragon said
"Aye, let's hope we see even more" Murtagh replied
"One can only hope with such things" Blodhgarm added
"Anyway, it is late, we should turn in" Kuldr told them, getting agreements from everyone else as they walked in to the hall.
