I have read Eragon and also love the book series. I really hadn't realized the closeness but now that you mention it I due see it. That is probably were the inspiration came from as it is one of my favorites. The next part will probably sound similar to but I will then move it away as I plan on turning it to runescape. If you read my previous post that it will not take place in runescape, I decided to change that while at a dentist appointment. It will be up to you guys to guess how I plan to do it. Thank you for you constructive criticism, I will do my best to move it away from Eragon as quickly as possible but please stick with me until I can.

Chapter 3
The Half Elf
When Mathew returned the beast was gone. The rope had been slit. Mathew could see that the door was pulled open and he walked inside his house. When he stepped in he saw the beast on the floor of his kitchen drinking milk that had been spilled all over his counter and floor. He decided that it was time to find out what the beast was. Preparing, he grabbed a new piece of rope and tied it around the beast's neck and grabbed the cloth sack in case he needed it. As he walked out of his house the beast followed without needed any motivation from him. He began the long walk down Fallen's road to town. When he got close to the town he took a small path that went through the woods. If there was anyone who would know what the beast was it was likely to be the supposed half Elf that had taken up residence on the outskirts of town about a year ago. He had rarely come to town and Mathew had only seen him once before. He had worn a cloak patched to look like the forest with the hood drawn up. He reached the half elf's house, a building built between three trees and knocked on the door. Suddenly he heard a voice behind him,"Can I help you." Mathew wiped around to see the half elf standing behind him with a pile of sticks and logs in his arms. The half elf had the same cloak on with the hood up. Mathew nervously replied,"This mourning this beast fell through the roof of my barn. I wanted to now if you can tell me what it is." The half elf replied with an obvious tone,"It appears to be a dragon.""A dragon, dragons died out during the War of Monsters", said Mathew exasperated. "Obviously you won't be leaving soon, so would you like to come inside.", the half elf said sounding annoyed. Mathew followed the half elf inside the building were he set the wood on a pile by the wall and took off hood. He had dusty blond hair with silver streaks in it, one eye was blue and the other eye was green and his ears were longer then a normal humans.

"When I touched the, dragon, there was a pop and some light and I was thrown on my back. Do you know what happened", Mathew asked, hesitating at the word dragon. "To your first statement, most dragons were not killed they simply left this area flying over the boundary, the ones that stayed had troubles surviving without the protection of their brethren and most died off, obviously not all. Tea?", the half elf asked Mathew while putting a pot of water over a small fire. Before Mathew could answer the half elf continued. "The mother of that dragon is most likely dead because they almost never leave their children alone. To your question, I have no idea what it is but it is unlikely to happen again." "So I should be able to safely touch it", Mathew asked. "Theoretically yes but I have told you my full some of knowledge on dragons. If you wish to learn more, you should go to the city of Bentarin", the half elf replied rising to get some cups. "That city is only full of thieves", Mathew said. The elf wipped around holding two cups with tea bags and said,"The city of Bentarin is full of honorable men and women who have dedicated their lives to protecting fouls like you from the dangers of the very monsters that were able to kill and scare away the dragons.", the half elf responded with a furious tone. Mathew took a step back from the fury in the half elf's eyes and said carefully,"I am sorry for speaking about what I do not know. Were is this city of Bentarin and how far is it?" The half elf seamed to calm down and began to pour the water from the pot into the cups and handed one to Mathew. Afterwords he responded saying,"It is an eight day journey to the east." "I don't have eight days. I have a farm to run", Mathew said worried."That dragon will grow quickly. If you want to keep it with you, and I don't think you have a choice, then the people of Bentarin is your only hope for help. (continued four posts down)

It just so happens it is time for me to return for awhile, you may come with me. If you don't talk to much", the half elf told him. Mathew was still unsure whether he should go or not but he had this urge to go with the elf. He looked down and the dragon was staring at him. He looked up and said,"Fine, lets go.
(If your wandering why this chapter suddenly got longer, it is because I felt the dialog was a little dry and wanted to add a little movement into it. Nothing important was added or removed just added some filler and couldn't fit it all in the previous post)

Chapter 4
Goblin Raid
Four days into the journey and Mathew had learned nothing about the half elf beyond the fact that he liked rabbit but would eat no other thing of meat and that he doesn't like to talk. He had quickly realized there was no point in having the dragon tied to him. It never left his sight and rarely left his side. They had stopped at a clearing in the forest to eat and rest before they continued their journey. Suddenly the dragon began to sniff the air and the half elf looked up. The half elf jumped up drawing a dagger as goblins poured from all around the forest. The half elf's arms flew as knife after knife was thrown at the onslaught of goblins. If one got to close to him he would quickly draw the dagger and slit its throat before it got any closer. A goblin began to creep towards Mathew its wicked blade drawn from its sheath. Out of nowhere another goblin, taller and not hunched like most jumped from the forest with a war ax in one hand and a sharp-toothed blade in the other. He bashed through the goblin with the ax and then proceeded to rip, bash and tear his way through more. Finally the pour of goblins slowed to a trickle and then they began to run away, back the way they came. The taller goblin looked once at Mathew and once at the half elf and then disappeared through the trees.

Chapter 5
Arabus
He looked at the two and ran through the forest. He was not sure if they would attack him and didn't need to waste more time killing them. He had already spent to much time tracking down this pack of goblins. They had been tearing through the country side killing and stealing. They had needed to die. Fortunately they had been in the relative direction that he needed to go. He had to find the book, the only chance at keeping the boundary shut was to find the book.
