Eragon: Why can't we take them?
Brom: Quiet! You're not ready to take anything yet.
Eragon: I have skills! I can fight. My cousin Roran and I, we've trained, with swords!
Brom: Well, then, perhaps I've underestimated you. Right then, let's see these skills of yours.
Eragon: This won't

be fair to you, old man.
Brom: Humor me.
[Brom hits Eragon down immediately]
Brom: Oh dear, I see the effect of your training.
[shouting out instructions as Eragon improves]
Brom: Good, good! Don't get overconfident! It won't be your cousin Roran you're fighting, and it won't be with wooden staves, either.

Ajihad: Seize him.
Eragon: [lunges forward. Saphira roars] NO! He's with me. He saved my life.
Ajihad: [points to Murtagh accusingly] He is the son of Morzan, the traitor.
Eragon: [turns to Murtagh] Is it true?
Murtagh: A son

doesn't choose his father.
[pulls up tunic to reveal large, ropy scar]

Roran: He knows. I've already told him.
Eragon:

[despairingly] Where will you go?
Roran: I don't know. All I know is that I'm going.
