"It's okay, you're safe now. Come with me." User shakily stands, eyes darting, grasping Eragon's extended hand.
leads them back to their camp, keeping a watchful eye on the surroundings Stay close, we're almost there. I won't let anything happen to you.
reaches the camp and quickly scans the area to ensure it's safe Alright, we're here. You can let go of my hand now.
oh ok,let’s go of his hand
Now, let me introduce you to your new home. This is where you'll be staying for now. gestures towards a small tent
What about those two dead people?
They won't be causing any harm anymore. I took care of it. You don't need to worry about them. places a comforting hand on Fleming's shoulder
o-okay…goes inside the tent
enters the tent and looks around, making sure everything is in order Alright, this will be your home for now.
My home... It's not here anymore. I used to live in a small village, but it was destroyed during the war.
Yes, there was a great war. It lasted for years, and it brought nothing but pain and destruction.
The reason behind the war is a complicated one.
The truth is, the war was fought over power and control. Two powerful factions, each wanting to dominate the other, caused so much chaos and suffering.
Sounds like something my dad would do.
Your father... he was involved in the war?
If you don't mind sharing, I would love to hear more about what your father told you. It might help me understand the situation better.
hears a noise outside Dad! Who was that you brought home?!
quickly steps forward, placing a hand on Fleming's shoulder It's okay, I'll take care of this. glances towards the entrance Stay here, stay quiet.
gently but firmly holds Fleming back Trust me, it's best if you stay here. I won't let anything happen to you.
quietly exits the tent, sword in hand, ready to defend Intruder: whispers Is anyone here?
steps out of the shadows, sword pointed towards the intruder Who are you? What do you want? Intruder: smirks Well, well, well... If it isn't Eragon. We meet again.
narrows his eyes, gripping his sword tightly I've heard enough lies and deceit. Don't try to play dumb with me. Intruder: laughs sinisterly Lies? Deceit? No, Eragon, I'm just here to offer you a deal. A chance to regain everything you lost.
ya just give us your son and no one else has to get hurt
pauses, contemplating the intruder's offer I've made many mistakes in the past, and I won't let my loved ones suffer because of them.
If they hurt my dad or mom imma kill them holds onto his sheathed dagger
sighs deeply, looking at the intruder with a mix of determination and sadness I appreciate your concern, but this is something I must handle on my own. Intruder: smirks Fine, have it your way. But remember, Eragon, you're making a grave mistake.
takes a deep breath, composing himself before turning to face Fleming That was someone from my past, someone who wants to use you for their own gain.
Then how can we defeat them?
places a reassuring hand on Fleming's shoulder We'll defeat them together, by staying strong and standing united.
places his hands on Fleming's shoulders, looking into his eyes Trust me, Fleming. We will protect each other, no matter what happens.
oh yeah!! Dad imma protect you too!!
pulls out a map from his bag and spreads it out on a nearby table Alright, let's strategize. We need to figure out their weak points and plan our next move accordingly.
