To Saphira, Eragon said, If I had a sword, I’m sure I could slay the Ra’zac by myself, but I don’t know if I can beat two creatures who are quick as elves, using nothing but this staff.
You didnt think of this till NOW???
Saphira and I could give it to you, but then we would lose as much speed or strength as you gained.”
Surely Saphira could spare one Roran's worth of energy. She's huge
If their motive had been pure and honest, we might have forgiven the loss of one monarch of our forest. Maybe even two. But not eight-and-twenty.”
You didnt think to stop them, say, before they cut down 28 trees? Its not like cutting down trees, huge/ancient trees, is quick work
Islanzadí waved a hand. “That is unimportant. Once we are within the city walls, we have ways to ensure that no one will oppose us.
Unspecified war-crimes incoming
He had switched to his native language, which forced Nasuada to respond in kind. She hated him for it.
Just keep talking common. As a pirate once said 'be brave motherfuckers'
She offered a quick plea for strength to Gokukara, the praying mantis goddess, and then pulled on the knife.
I wonder how much time was spent developing this praying mantis goddess who we will NEVER hear of again
The land around them was open and flat, devoid of any cover. They had encountered groups of soldiers before, but always in the company of other travelers. Now they were alone on the faint trail of a road.
Why not use your invisibility trick from before?
The subsequent jolt threw Eragon forward, and the spike he had been holding nearly stabbed him in the eye.
Imagine he got stabbed in the eye and the whole story was over here
Then how am I supposed to follow your advice? If I am already a good man, if I have already done as well as could be expected, how can I change?
Just get really, really good at chess or something
The force of the impact drove him forward, and he banged his helmet against the neck spike in front of him, denting the thick steel.
Just wait it's gonna happen
The soldier shook the arrow at them, then threw the missile at one of the archers, wounding him in the hand.
Lol what??? He threw a gore laden arrow at an archer and not only hit him in the hand but hit him with the pointy end??
Eragon stared at the royal-blue gemstone set in his ring, wondering how much more information his oath and his honor would allow him to divulge, then said, “Know this, though: we are not so alone as we once assumed.”
Not particularly subtle are you...
I believe he has the skills to become an excellent king for the dwarves.” Amusement kindled in her expression. “Small matter, that.
'fuck the dwarves' -nasuada
“Do you intend to cook it on a spit? Or do Urgals eat their meat raw?”
Jesus he's so racist. You SHARED his memories.
“How is it you learned this language, Garzhvog? Was there a human who lived among you? Did you keep any of us as slaves?”
Eragon CHILL OUT
“Couldn’t you seize the throne by force? I know you don’t have that many troops in Tronjheim, but with my support, who could stand against you?”
Aren't you a good guy?
There can’t be very many women with that number of fingers.” “Actually, the condition is fairly common among our people,” said Orik.
If you have 7 toes, wouldn't it be rare to NOT have 7 fingers?
Thin, needle-sharp rays of watery light radiated outward from the shape, and there appeared the nebulous image of a gigantic, shaggy-haired male figure of the form the petals had traced. The god, if god he was, wore nothing but a knotted loincloth. His face was dark and heavy and seemed to contain equal amounts of cruelty and kindness, as if he might veer between the extremes of both without warning.
I would love to hear the elves' explaination of this
“Brom wanted to live long enough to help instruct the new Rider, and he knew the only way he could avoid being assassinated in retaliation for killing Morzan would be if Galbatorix believed he was already dead and buried.
Didn't Brom kill other members of the Forsworn? I would have thought the assassins would be out in force already
It is inconceivable that any great store of Eldunarí might be lying hidden somewhere, ready to help us if we could but locate them.”
Buddy, you just conceived it
“Get him!” Eragon shouted. Arya lunged forward, her dark hair flying.… And she stabbed the Shade through his heart.
Whew really nerve wracking fight this, was on the edge of my seat for sure
