What if Arya's mother had not been killed by Barst but only fatally wounded? What if Eragon had been the only reason she had lived? I do not own the series and not all characters or names are my own. I want your reviewa so leave them. The story takes place soon after Eragon crowns Nasuda. Firnen hasn't hatched yet.

Sitting on her horse Arya talked to the egg just like she always did with Saphira. Soon after having crossed the wards in Du Weldenvarden, a tiny crack appeared on the egg. Transfixed she watched unt the egg had hatched, a green dragon. She touched it and it was like being struck by lightning.

Miles away in Ilerea, somehow, Eragon knew that a new dragon had hatched.
