Eragon and his riders had been in Teirm for only a few hours before he called a meeting to go begin planning their next steps. Eragon wished to think through them thouroghly before he acted and that meant consulting with his riders and other companions.

In the past few hours, ten other fully trained riders had arrived from the regions surrounding Teirm, most of them were healers and scholars who taught the common people and kept justice. In Eragon's eyes, these riders were just as valuable as a warrior rider. Even though Eragon trained his riders to be well rounded he could not stop them from being specialized for almost all his students gravitate towards one subject or another depending on their likes, and Eragon respected their passions.

The meeting was called for in Prince Wesin's private chambers. There were no longer any war consulting rooms for there had been peace far to long and the space went unused. Eragon was the first to speak.

"As many of you know, there is a new force in Alageasia to reckon with, there captain or leader has kidnapped King Jorun. I know this for he scryed me back in Dras Shurtugal with Jorun at knife point. He states that he has forces surrounding Gilead and has plans to take it and all of Alageasia. I do believe that this is no idle threat. However, Alageasia is not how it used to be, I know that some of you remember the dark times, when the races were full of hatred and separated from each other, this is no more, and because of that I do believe that we will be able to overcome this force. Alagaesia is our home and we must fight for it, however, if we do not do this properly we could loose it and our lives all together."

A rider, who was living in a village not too far from Teirm spoke up, "Who is fighting, what will are style be, are we waiting for something to start the war or do we start it, should we contact the elves and the dwarves?"

"Patience. I have already contacted the elves and the dwarves, they are preparing their armies this instant. And no, we are not waiting for someone to start the war, it has already begun. All the other riders, even the riders who are not fully trained, except for some exceptions, are leaving for Alagaesia soon and should arrive in a weeks time. I understand that many of you may not believe it is right for these young riders to fight, but you must understand that it is their duty as much as yours."

"And our fighting style?"

"We shall have groups that possess ten riders each. There will be some specialized groups who I will announce later that will do things such as protecting soldiers, health, and stealth groups. Each normal group will have at least two fully trained riders if not more. The most experienced rider will of course be in charge and report directly to me. One rider will be in charge of of searching for magicians and other possible threats. Five riders in each group will serve as foot/air warriors, one of these will be a fully trained rider. Three will focus on taking out magicians and easing the warriors fighting through a fighting that is more magic focused, and the last rider will be in charge of protecting the other riders adn fueling their wards."

Prince Wesin asked, "And where will be central command?"

"Well in Teirm of course!"

I promise that it will get more interesting, these past two chapters have been dull but I want to be sure that there is at least some plot to the story, fighting will come soon and Arya may make an appearence soon enough:)
