alagaesia arya dragons eragon fanfiction fantasy fantasyadventure inheritance inheritancecycle murtagh nanowrimo2016 nasuada roran saphira theinheritancecycle thorn

Being a Rider is not skill. It is not spells and sparring and flight. 

It is becoming a piece of a much bigger chess board, fighting against the dark while remaining in the light. And when darker powers start to grow, it is about sacrifice and giving every ounce of yourself to prevent it from taking over our world.

The Truth About Lies (An Inheritance Cycle Fanfiction) by ScarlettBarnes22

Tabatha isn't quite sure how to react when she discovers that her best friend since childhood is a Dragon Rider. All she knows is that she has to aid him on his journey.

But will the truth destroy her and everything she believes in?

Shadow of a Shade by A_Stressed_Author

Addiane found her life to be comfortable enough. She may not have known her family, but she was fed and taken care of by those she lived with. She rarely feared for her life, and she was being taught valuable life lessons by those around her. Of course, training to be a Dragon Rider under the Shadeslayer himself, the first proper Rider in a long time, was a major bonus. Addiane wouldn't have thought she'd ever want to leave their little haven. Her curiosity simply got the better of her when Eragon's cousin made a plea for assistance, describing terrifying marauders and bowmen whose aim had been blessed by gods. And of course there was the man who rode the red dragon. Addiane had to know more about him, and about what was going on in the mountains that Eragon Shadeslayer had once called home. She really didn't know what she was getting into. *I DON'T OWN THE RANGERS APPRENTICE SERIES/ACCOMPANYING BOOKS OR THE INHERITANCE CYCLE, I JUST REALLY LOOK UP TO JOHN FLANAGAN AND CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI*

Wounds and determination by MydlaMydla

When Murtagh comes to heal Nasuada in the Hall of the Soothsayer, Galbatorix learns about his betrayal. Needless to say, he is furious. Murtagh and Nasuada are trapped together and endure as they can, until Eragon comes to the rescue and they are able to defeat the King. They all need to deal with the aftermath in their own way. This fic will contain themes and mentions that may be triggering, please read the warnings and tags I used and proceed at you own discretion. English is not my first language so I apologise in advance for any mistakes. This is my first work in this fandom so I would like to ask for your understanding in case I got anything wrong.

Erys: An Eragon Fanfiction - (Under Editing) by HKWillow

In the time Eragon has been absent from Alagaësia, the riders have fallen to vices. Few have been able to raise to fulfill the roles the riders had originally been given, and a dark sect-reminiscent of the Foresworn-has risen to power. The cities and villages under their control live in fear, and those not already sworn to them are too weak to fight. Erys is a young girl living a simple village life. When men attack the village, her father disguises her as a young boy and makes her swear never to reveal her identity. When the marauders discover her, they take her and the other women and children hostage. Erys struggles to survive. Hiding her identity is almost impossible, and once they get her to the slave market, she would be trapped forever, and her true identity discovered. She plans her escape every night but has no idea where to go or who to trust. Her only sure plan of action is to free her mother, who has disappeared along with the other women captured the night of the attack. But first she has to escape her captors. And they have a dark secret and an even darker motive. One that would surely wreak havoc if no one stops them. Disclaimer! I do own Alagäesia. The world and this particular concept of dragon riders belong to Christopher Paoplini. The original characters, however, as well as this plot, belong to me.

A Hound in the Woods // Sandor Clegane by Shelbie0222

What if Sandor Clegane found someone that could soothe his restless, aching soul? I put forth to you, dear reader, a scenario in which Septon Ray finds Sandor at the bottom of the cliff, rotten and near death. Ray loads the hulking body onto his wagon and takes him to a young woman, Angharad. She is not of any great house, the daughter of a foreign woman from across the narrow sea and a failed runaway Maester. Angharad has learned healing skills from her parents and now lives on her own, helping those in the nearby settlement as it grows larger and larger. Sandor falls in love, but duty and vengeance take him away...for a time. **This is a Game of Thrones adjacent fan fiction, so obviously not all characters are original.

Sja Fram [Inheritance Cycle | Eragon Fanfiction] by SilentSilverSlip

My name is Umaroth Ajikson. My father and sister died in a fire, my mother died shortly afterwards. I've been living in the Spine since shortly after that. However, one day I saved someone from dying by a bear. This person was travelling with another person and a dragon. My life just got a whole lot more interesting. I joined the trio on their travels with my trusty stallion, Istal. Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, must take up the mantle of the legendary Dragon Riders. Joined by Brom, an old storyteller who isn't who he says he is, and myself, someone who has a lot of bad luck, all of us must navigate the dangerous terrain and dark enemies of an Empire ruled by a king whose evil knows no bounds. Together we must face enemies and get through the battles surround us. I've been sucked into an adventure that wasn't meant to be mine, but now that I'm here, I'm not leaving Eragon, Brom and Saphira to their fate. Plus, the purple dragon in my dreams says we're going to meet soon. Who am I to deny that? This is my story, and remember; when everything seems dark sja fram, look forward.

The Dark Hours - Eragon Fanfic by StoryDreamBeliever

(Essentially a detailed account of what happened to Murtagh from his capture under Farthen Dur until Galbatorix's fall, framed by his new life at Mt. Argnor) Murtagh struggles to adjust to life as an instructor at Mt. Argnor, despite being surrounded by good people and doing fulfilling work. When his erratic behavior and alcoholism get out of control, his dragon Thorn and his brother Eragon take him to see the Eldunari, who encourage him to face the horrors of his past in order to overcome his pain. With the help of Thorn and the Eldunari, he dives into the sea of memory and must wade through the hurt and torment to come out whole on the other side. Note: This is part 2 of a series that follows Murtagh's story post-Inheritance. Part one is called "Tornac of the Road"; you can enjoy this story without having read the first, but some contextual things will not make sense. Cover Art Credit- YanoLidge on Deviantart

I Just Pray For Your Fall ||| Cregan Stark by naerysa

Cregan Stark/OC - Obligatory NOT self insert I just like making unique characters not in the show/book. Smut, of course. :) ⚠️Warnings: mention/description of miscarriage!!, pregnancy, implied SA, harassment, groping, etc. be forewarned. Not all of this happens to the mc, this is just a list of warnings for things that will be mentioned or referred to in the book so keep that in mind before you read. All characters 18 if there's smut I want to make it clear that my fancast for Cregan Stark is Leo Suter; specifically Leo Suter in Vikings Valhalla. That man is FINE. He is who I write these stories with in mind. * 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙥𝙖𝙞𝙣 𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙙𝙮 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙨𝙘𝙖𝙧 * Amara Tyrell was born to rule Highgarden. She knows she was. And yet... her father never stops pushing her mother for a proper heir. No matter how hard she works to prove herself, it is never enough. She will always be a pawn to move about the political chessboard of Westeros. On the night of the Harvest Masquerade, she meets someone that changes everything. A formidable Lord from the North who proves there is more to life than what she previously expected. But she is not so fortunate as to take the hand he offers. Her father has already decided her future upon the dream of every Tyrell Lord; royal blood in their lineage. There is an attempt at a happy marriage. But inner turmoil and feeling completely separated from her supposed family, Amara never quite settles into the life of royalty. Her heart yearns for something she can only find in the North. Until a second fated meeting goes entirely unexpected. A war will separate the briar and the wolf. She will be wronged by the one who is supposed to protect her endlessly. Amara will not forgive. And she will not forget. A rose grows with thorns that must be forcibly removed. Missing any one of them could injure the beholder of its beauty. ***

Sweeter Than Evil ||| Cregan Stark by naerysa

Cregan Stark/Targaryen OC *not a self insert* Timelines have been changed so ages better match up.

Unfortunately, the curse of foresight follows the name directly to the child who inherited it. Dragon dreams are not clear. There is no book on the subject, no sign to look for. Many do not believe the dreamers have ever existed. Daenys is cursed with the burden of dreams depicting destruction and the fall of her family. She is cursed with callings that cannot be ignored, a pull stronger than she can resist. Mad. Wicked. Insane. Defective.

Until there is a man brave enough to stand by her side and embrace her as Daenys. Madness, dreams, blood magic, and all. Wolf and dragon. Ice and fire. Loyalty and sacrifice.

Of Shadows and Starlight | E. Peredhel by favblondie1

Set in the world of Middle-earth, during the time of The Rings of Power, Melisane, the youngest sister of Finrod and Galadriel, unlike her sister's mind-reading abilities, possesses the divine gift of prophetic dreams, able to glimpse the future, past, and unseen realms. As a child, she was captivated by tales of dragons-creatures of wind, sky, and fire-and often dreamed of them, their power and grace haunting her thoughts. In the aftermath of the Elves' flight to Middle-earth, the loss of her brother Finrod, and Galadriel's departure to hunt Sauron, Melisane is left battling grief and feelings of abandonment. Despite her skill as a deadly commander and warrior, she struggles to find purpose, withdrawing from those who care for her as her dreams grow stronger. One fateful day, she stumbles upon a newly hatched, abandoned dragon-just as her dreams had foretold. Believing this moment signals a change in her destiny, Melisane takes the creature under her care. Concerned by her reclusive nature, Elrond, the Half-elven, and an old family friend, seeks her out and is shocked to find her raising the dragon. Agreeing to help her, he assumes she will eventually let it go, but their shared bond over the creature slowly rekindles their long-lost friendship-and something deeper. As shadows loom once again over Middle-earth, Melisane and Elrond must navigate the growing darkness, all while facing the uncertain futures that their hearts and dreams reveal. Will their newfound connection withstand the threats closing in, or will the starlight of their bond be consumed by the shadows? _ "You sleep coiled; tightly wound. Hands made fists beneath the pillows, clenched above cotton sheets. You are at war, even in your dreams, cenedril af fae nín. Let me help you."

Age of the Dragon 3: The Eye of the Storm by AmayaDisapproves

The third story in the Age of the Dragon Series - Read Return of the Riders and Thedas Rider before reading this one! Fallyn has returned to Alagaesia and is ready to enter the war - if only the order would be given! When it finally comes time to face Murtagh and expose her lies to him, will it change things? What else is she hiding, not only from him but the Varden too?

The Beast by Schlemiel

Thorns are wicked with barbs that ensnare and bleed those foolish enough to come too close. But their presence is often a defense, made to protect that which is lovely and delicate. Could the same not be said of a beast? "When I tell my stories, I'm not always just talking about the individual characters, I'm also talking about us- ourselves. Everyone has a potential to be any one of the characters, or even a mix of them, in their own stories. One day we may be the hero, and the next we may be the damsel in distress." "What character am I," Ylvir asked eagerly. "Oh, Ylvir," his mother said tenderly, stroking the fur around his face. "You can be whatever character you want to be... Promise me that you won't let anyone turn you into a bad guy." "Promise." A big thanks to @Pennywithaney for the magnificent cover! ;D

The Rogue Rider (An Inheritance Fanfiction) by Pennator

Two hundred and fifty years after the fall of Galbatorix, Alagaesia is a very different place. Trading routes have been opened up all through the world with the country being the center of it all. Ilirea has become a thriving city and has grown immensely, with large businesses bustling, and tens of thousands of citizens living their daily lives. With the dragon riders thriving with the country nothing seems wrong. But with a large city comes a dark underground, and with rumours spreading the streets of a powerful new weapon not even the elves can compete with, the dragon riders find themselves losing what little control they have over the criminals hiding in the shadows. Ragin, professional thief and assassin, has been tasked with an impossible mission. One that has never been achieved before. Stealing a dragon egg. But there is a surprise at the end of this mission, one that no one could foresee. (Disclaimer, I do not own the inheritance series or the characters that appear in it.

Destiny (Volume I: Shur'tugalar) by Nikkisha16

Eragon was once an orphan who lived on a farm, didn't know who his father was, and had never stepped foot outside of Palancar Valley. But when a blue stone appeared before him in the Spine, hatching a baby dragon, everything changed. Now, he is known as Eragon Shadeslayer, son of Brom and one of the last remaining Riders. He and his dragon, Saphira Bjartskular, have journeyed across the Empire: facing countless foes, winning many battles, and beating impossible odds. They know they are the ONLY ones who can free Alagaësia from the tyrannical King Galbatorix's rule - or are they? When a mysterious girl named Niaomi arrives at the Varden, she brings with her new hope, but also new dangers. For though she and her allies have great powers, Galbatorix will stop at nothing to capture them. And when the third dragon egg hatches, will the newcomers' history hold the key to freedom for the enslaved "Shur'tugalar"? In the first volume of an epic tale, the Riders will be forced to confront spies, thwart assassination attempts, and uncover their pasts. But even though the Varden's skill grows, the coming battle will require all of their strength. For the black king still possesses an unmatched power that even the gods would be hard-pressed to defeat. *see A/N for the full book's trailer* [COMPLETED: readable though in editing] - Chapter Status: last edited 12/3/15 • Edited: #1-#7 • In Progress: - • Unedited: #8-#10 "Destiny (Volume II: Indlvarn)" has been posted and is currently in progress. ~~~~~ Posted: Aug. 12, 2012 ~ All characters, settings, and events referenced from the Inheritance Cycle in "Destiny" and all other related works are owned by Christopher Paolini.
