Arya: Tell me your name.
Eragon: Eragon.
Arya: Eragon... I'm Arya, princess of Ellesmera. You're the only one who can save me.
Eragon: But how can I find you?
Arya: Durza holds me prisoner in Gil'ead.
Brom: I hardly think a boy of 15, 16...
Eragon: Seventeen!
Brom: Seventeen, forgive me. But I hardly think a boy of SEVENTEEN could handle it.
Durza: [after killing the Urgal leader for failing to bring Eragon to him] Congratulations, you've just been promoted!
Eragon: We've come to join you.
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]
Murtagh: This was the only thing he ever gave me. I hated that man until the day he died.
Ajihad: Lock him up. If he tries to escape, kill him.
Roran: Eragon...
[hesitates]
Roran: I'm leaving.
Eragon: What?
Roran: I'm old enough to be recruited now. Before the soldiers come looking for me.
Eragon: [pause] But what about - ?
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.
