Chapter 13

"A few can touch the magic string,
and noisy fame is proud to win them:
Alas for those that never sing,
but die with all their music in them!"
-Oliver Wendell Holmes

When Brom was exiting the palace to meet up with king Evandar, he saw Arya, she was trying to explain to the elves, how the image appeared on the slate, that she was now holding in her hand.
He walked up to them and joined their debate:
Odin: "I for one believe her"
Evandar: "Darling it's impossible for an image to just show up by it's self"
Arya: "I'm telling you it really happened!"
Brom cut in for the first time: "It's true what she says, I came to her room after breakfast, but she was asleep, I saw the slate, it was on the windowsill and I'm telling you, she couldn't have known what I dreamed about, for on the slate, the exact same scene was painted as I dreamed about this night"
The elves became silent, Odin said "Told you so", "Further more" continued Brom "I feel as if Eragon was right next to me, even now. I know he's past away, but maybe something or someone is trying to tell us something. Don't you think?" finished Brom.
"Perhaps you are right" stated Evandar full of wonder.
"Vrael has given me control over twenty riders, to which messengers have been sent to tell them about our situation. I've come here to say goodbye, for I know not when I shall see you again my friends and Arya... I'm sorry for earlier" Brom left for the dragon hold where he was supposed to meet up with his companions. Eragon, still invisible, quickly followed.

"Master Oromis" said Brom a bit excited as well as frightened (for it was his first time leading a group of warriors, "What's this all about? You've got some explaining to do..." stated Oromis, a bit annoyed for being dragged out of his daily routine. "Master" started Brom, but wasn't able to finish because Oromis hushed him "as far as I'm concerned, you're the one leading this... group, yes?" asked Oromis. "That is correct" answered Brom. "Then for the time being, I am not your master" replied the rider. "Now, if I'm correct, Eragon said something about a castle hidden in the beors" spoke Brom.
The riders listened as if they were wasting their time. Eventually they they set out, flying southeast the whole time. Oromis had Brom tell him the entire story since they last saw each other, when he finished Oromis was shocked and speechless, but also proud of Brom, for standing up to his enemies, but most of all, for standing up to his Idol.
Brom always adored Morzan, let himself be bullied by him and if not for Eragon, he may have even joined Galbatorix.

Soon they were just about to turn back, for everyone including Brom doubted Eragon's story, when Brom noticed something, "Oromis, look!"
"My god, could it be?" he heard his reply. They flew towards something that resembled a rock mountain, the only difference was that had little curves, that were probably windows.
They hit the jack pot, Galbatorix and fifty riders, most of which Oromis knew, were now positioning themselves by Galbatorix. Brom declared "By the Order of Vrael we are here to take Galbatorix into custody, give him up willingly and we will forget you ever joined him", "those who oppose us will face being exhaled by the riders council"
The opposition had thrown themselves at Vrael's messengers.

The battle had begun, swords clashing, screams, Brom knew they were outnumbered, suddenly Galbatorix yelled with a grin "Everyone stop!"
His servants did as they were told, then "Who is in command?"
Brom was about to come forward, but Sega, one of the oldest riders said "I am" before he could.
Galbatorix then stated "Come then, let us duel"
Sega stepped out, unsheathed his grey sword and ran at the traitor. Unfortunately Sega was slaughtered after a few blows.
His opponent had been too strong for him, Vrael's riders were now scared.
"Fight me and you shall be forced to serve me, join me and together we will rebuild the riders!" said th madman.
Oromis asked Brom "How can this be?"
"I don't know, but one thing's for sure, he doesn't want to kill us, he wants us alive. So I say we fight!"
Again metal clashing was heard, for a moment Brom's team was winning, but Galbatorix got irritated and joined the fight, after that, many of Vrael's riders were knocked unconscious.

Brom and Oromis were still fighting when everyone of their friends had been captured or killed. They had to surrender...
Eragon flew away "Damn it!", he cursed. "I can't do anything foolish, which doesn't mean I'm gonna watch as my father is killed once again. It's too bad that the price of the riders leaving their arrogance Is the death of others. I have to think of something" he thought, Eragon felt as if he were forgetting something eversince he was stabbed by Galbatorix in his first "life".
He saw how all the dragons of his allies, had to stand down threatened by the death of their riders.

They were being taken to the dragon hold and imprisoned.

The last thing Brom remembered was being knocked in the head with something...

"Oromis?" asked Brom, awoken.
"Brom?" stammered his master, they were drugged and they knew it, further more, they were bound by invisible chains. In the far distance they were able to hear their friends being tortured or killed.
"Your cell must be next to mine" said Oromis, Brom agreed. "Well we can't use magic, I don't know how we'll get out" muffled Brom. There was a long time of silence for none of the two prisoners had any idea how to escape.

Eragon hid inside Brom's cell and murmured to himself "But I do", he almost laughed. Then searched for any minds, to his surprise, he found that there were two riders on guard, one was Morzan.
"I'm going to have a little fun" he thought.

Eragon broke into the minds of the riders that were guarding their prisoners, killed one and once he broke into Morzan's mind and started controlling him, made Morzan come up to the two riders locked up in their cells.
"What do you want, traitor!" yelled Brom.
"Master Oromis, Brom, I'm not Morzan, I'm simply controlling him, I'm sorry that I did not present myself to you in my host body, but I was afraid you might find it a bit disturbing...
All you need to know is that I am your friend and that I've come here to rescue you" replied Morzan.
The two of them wouldn't have believed him if not for the fact that he was speaking in the ancient language.
"Who are you?" They asked at the same time, "I can't tell you that, but know this, I knew Eragon better than anyone else. I bet you both got a million questions on your minds, but for now they have to wait, one of you, Oromis, must fly to Vrael and tell him your current situation. As for you Brom, you must help me rescue the others. Your dragons are waiting for you outside the castle by the north tower. Let me free you now" said Eragon.
They nodded, he quickly cleared their minds, and thought "My, this' ll be the first time Oromis's lessons of wielding black magic have proven useful"

Oromis hadn't yet known what Eragon had had been taught by him, which was why he stared at Morzan with awe as he broke the invisible cuffs.
"Why are you doing this?" The both asked again, "Because, there are three things that I'm willing to die for, the ones I love, what I believe and as most for freedom" he asnwered.
Brom shared his thought with Oromis, "I know now what he meant about Eragon, he even talks like him, always the words of wisdom".
"But how did you get to know Eragon?" asked Oromis, "I've known him since I discovered my true name, how I cannot tell you, not now, but we must get going" replied Morzan.
"Last question then, will we ever be able to see you in your true form?" asked Brom.
"Unfortunately yes, it will be a horrifying experience, but yes you will. I am closer to you than you think, there is no time to lose we must part" Spoke Eragon through Morzan.

"You are terribly mysterious, but nevertheless right" said Oromis. With that they parted.

Brom told his Saphira to hide in the forest a league north from the castle, she listened.
Morzan, Eragon and Brom stood in front of the cell "Here's the plan, follow me, so that if someone sees us, they'll think I'm holding you prisoner. Am I clear?" asked Morzan.
"Yes" replied Brom, barely not adding "Master".
They emptied six cells, the rest were already empty, Eragon said "You must now join Oromis",
The great full riders nodded, when they were about to leave Brom asked "When will I see you again?"
"Sooner than you think, same goes to Eragon, he will rise again, if you cooperate that is. You must go now" stated Eragon through Morzan wanting to make Brom feel better.
Brom stood there with an open mouth. He wanted to say "You're lying!", but he could not deny the ancient language, so he said "I will do everything in my power to save him" not believing his ears.
"Good, I will see you later then, farewell now" stated Morzan.
The riders were gone, "one more thing left for me to do" he told himself.
Still controlling Morzan, he made him enter his room. On the bed sat a woman with a baby in her arms.
"It can't be!" he thought, It was Selena. She looked at him, frightened. "I have to leave" he thought.
Morzan fainted and hit the floor as Eragon withdrew from his consciousness. He exited the castle, spread his beautiful wings and caught up with the riders, still invisible.
Brom was bewildered, he was in shock. He always thought it was impossible to bring back somebody from the dead. Most of all he wondered what he owed his life to and why that something was "so scary".
When they returned to Vrael's palace, Brom immediately burst into the conference room where he found that Vrael was in a meeting, discussing something with the council of elders, Evandar, Arya and their guards were there too. Brom told the lead rider what had occurred, totally changing the subject of their meeting.
Every listener's face turned from bored and tired, to frightened and alive.
"We never would have gotten away, if not for something (Eragon was listening the whole time)
that possessed Morzan's body and let me out of my cell after de-drugging me. This something also new of Eragon and said in the ancient language he would rise again". Everybody, even Vrael was dumbstruck. When the meeting ended, Vrael took Brom by the arm and drew him far away from earshot, then said "I will have Oromis teach you everything we know, because you will need it to fight Galbatorix, as for his unusual power, I cannot be sure, but I'm afraid he has the eldunari of his servants dragons. You said their were about fifty on his side?" Brom nodded. "Then imagine, fighting fifty riders at once, that is why Sega failed, even though he was much older and wiser than Galbatorix. I'm sorry you had to witness some of the riders deaths, whatever you do, don't blame this on yourself! It wasn't your fault... It was mine, I doubted your words. I will lead an army of two hundred riders, yo don't have to come if yo wish not too. Did this... something, say anything else?" stated Vrael. "He said it was a shame that for everyone to open their eyes, deaths of their friends were needed and that he'd see me again soon". Vrael wanted to repay Brom for his heroism, but before he could say anything Brom asked if he could leave. Vrael did not want to trouble him any longer so he let him wanted to ask him more, but he knew Brom needed time to become him self again. Though he wasn't going to just leave the statement hanging.
Eragon quickly followed Brom, the elves had been waiting for him in Arya's room.
"I can't believe what happened" said Evandar, "I'm afraid we shall yet see worse things in the future" stated Oromis who was uninvited and showed himself only now.
"How did you..." But Brom was shushed, "I got in here because we must know when that thing will contact you again" said Oromis. "I don't know anymore than you do!" shouted Brom.
"Excuse me I have to go to my quarters" spoke Arya, wanting to get out of an unpleasant conversation which was just about to take place, yet when she was in the door, her father took her by the arm and said "Not so fast, after all these are your quarters, are they not?" he said it ironically.
"I have enough of pointless conversations and debates, do you not understand? I loved Eragon and I blame myself for his death everyday and night! I can't sleep as I once did! Every time I close my eyes I see him dying over and over again, in front of me! Do you think I wanted this? I need to rest! So leave me alone for now, goodnight!" with that the princess left the room with Eragon. He wasn't able to stay away from her, not when she needed him. When they were outside the palace, on a cliff, underneath which was pure clean water, Arya spoke to herself again "...You were a brave man Eragon, willing to die for the ones you loved". Eragon made sure he was close enough to catch her if she decided to jump.
"I can't show myself to you yet my love. I gotta make Brom my father and fast, if I don't I'll fade away before I manage to defeat Galbatorix" he thought. Together they watched the sunset after which, Eragon found a perfect guest body, a messenger boy.
He himself waited in Brom's room, then broke into the messenger's mind and started controlling him.
The boy came up to Arya who was still standing on the cliff and said in a childish voice "My lady, master Vrael has given me a message to carry to a rider named Brom, I was told you could help me?"
He made pleading eyes, ones that Arya could not resist, she smiled, she realized it was the first time she'd done that after Eragon's death. Still, the child made her laugh with it's squeaky voice. It was her pleasure to guide the child, so she replied "Yes of course I'll help you"
"Knock knock" they heard, Brom opened the door, the first thing he noticed was Arya who silently

entered the room and fell asleep on her bed. The second thing he noticed was the child who spoke "master Vrael requests to see you in your room as soon as possible".
"Understood" replied Brom who Immediately left the room, he didn't even notice the child follow.
After walking down two long corridors and a long staircase
he opened the door to his room, entered, but couldn't see anyone. As he turned around to leave, he saw the "messenger". He asked "is it you?"
The child spoke "I said I'd be back, did I not?"
"Yes, you did, Is this your true form?" wondered Brom.
"I wish it were, Listen there is still time to bring Eragon back to life, but as I said before, you have to cooperate and fast. If you do everything I say, then we will all be saved, but if you don't, we're all doomed. Do you understand?" asked the child.
"Yes" quickly nodded Brom, still wondering whether this wasn't a prank.
It was already late, the sun had set and darkness engulfed the land, so Eragon had an idea "If you swear a couple oaths to me in the ancient language, I will show you my host body", he knew that after consulting Saphira, Brom would say yes...

"Argh! I can't believe it!" yelled Morzan. Galbatorix had already punished him greatly for letting the prisoners escape, he was now in his room yelling at Selena. He had to drop his anger on someone, but it wasn't giving him the satisfaction he desired, no. He took Murtagh from Selena, put him on the floor, unsheathed Zar'oc and since he wasn't thinking straight, threw it at Murtagh.
"No!" he heard Selena shout, she ran up to Murtagh and healed him as best she could, but there was going to be a scar... She wanted to leave Morzan, she realized what a monster he was, but how she knew not. Selena hated him wholeheartedly now, she would have killed him if not for the fact, she had been trapped in a castle with traitors, who would catch her and kill her if they found out about her killing Morzan. She was alone now, Morzan left angry at everything. "What am I to do?" she thought.

"So now that I've sworn everything I promised, will you show yourself to me?" Asked Brom.
The messenger fell to the floor, which scared Brom, not as much as what he saw behind him though.
Brom screamed "What are you? What do you want from me? Don't eat me, please".

He was frightened by the creature's glowing red orbs and that beak.
"Calm yourself down" spoke Eragon after altering his voice "I told you that it wold be better If I hadn't done this and I'm not going to eat you, if I wanted to, I'd have done it at the castle. Now listen very closely, you will be my assassin and you will kill Morzan. You will be surrounded by hostiles the whole time, the only person you'll be able to trust will be a woman named Selena, that you will love." He had been speaking in the ancient language so Brom had no choice, but to believe him, though it did not come easily at first.
In the end Brom spoke "I will do what you tell me to because I've sworn an oath of obedience to you, but mostly because I owe you my life. When do we start?"
"As soon as possible, but your dragon must join Vrael when he strikes, so you will be alone. I will guide you as much as I can, but you will have to make hard choices on your own. Tomorrow you shall set out for the castle, I will fly you. When you get there, you shall hire yourself as a gardener. The rest I've already told you. You must get some sleep and I must as well. I will be here a bit before sunrise.
I will wake you and we shall leave. Don't bother saying goodbye to anyone I'll leave a letter..." answered Eragon "Remember how Eragon was from the future? Well, you'll have to wait a bit, but you'll see him again" with that they parted. Brom started packing and went to sleep, while Eragon wrote the letter and left it on Arya's desk. When dawn was approaching, Eragon woke Brom, held him between his claws, put Brom's pack on his back, made them invisible and set out for the castle...
