i need some help..... i really can not figure out what weapon Eragon will find??????
if you have any awnsers please tell me

well, no one but cp knows for sure.
its not ever even hinted at. for now we can only guess.
i'm leaning towards a sword. it will be required to beat murtagh, and galby what ever it is.
if its a sword i hope it blue. and i hope that it has some super strong ancient magic. he may need some against galby.
i kinda hope they free murtagh though. i don't want them to have to fight.

i have no clue....maybe its a sword from the other rider named eragon...no idea though

yeah brightscales. i've thought that as well. good idea by the way.

i like the idea of it having anicient magic, possibly, if it wuz the 1st eragons sword, he put a crapload of energy into it that Eragon could use(like the belt of beloth the wise or Zar'Roc)

ever wonder if someone knew what was coming and hid something there for that reason??
..why else would there be a weapon under the menoa tree.
....i'm sure it's strong what-ever it is
..and werecats live long lives. so they could have intrusted solembum with the knowledge that a weapon was there.

that is a good reason

i still think that it is going to be a true name or a really poerfull spell

and i think the menoa tree is not the living one in ellesmera but the picture on the scroll oromis gave him

yes. but it could be both.

It will be a sword and it won't be the first Eragon's as his dragon was white and it will be better to have one of Saphira's color. There is only one sword that would be logcial and it is his real father's old sword. He will get Brom's sword, if you remember Brom had the same color dragon with the same name. Also, he lost his sword though I think there is more to that story.

but u don't know for sure his dragon was blue. that's just an assumption... so his sword may not be blue.
although i think they are blue. we don't know that for a fact. cp never stated it.

i thought it said that the first eragons dragon was white

Yes, we know that, but we are trying to figure out is if he gets his blade or does he get the more logical choice in Brom's blade.

Ah but we do know that Brom's Saphira was blue also. That is very reasonabloe.

Off topic here but Smurf do you use that name on IF also.

Why do you ask? I use bigpappasmurfxxxl on alot of subjects.

Just curious, because I post there to and saw the same name.

waht ever happened to broms sword, maybe his??

All it says was that he lost his sword.

Nope that wasn't me. Most of the time its bigpappasmurfxxxl not bigpappasmurf

That's cool and sorry to bother you with that.

Don't worry about. I beleive though there will be at least three deaths in BooK III.

I think Oromis has to be one of them. Who else do you think could it be?

I am thinking Oromis, Islanzadi and Galbatorix are the three most likely to die. But just out of curiosity; what do the deaths have to do with Solembun's advice?

Nothing realy but to keep with the topic I will string the two togather. Solembum's advice will lead Eragon to find a weapon and will give him great knowledge or power. So since Eragon will now have these things it will lead to Galby's death. I also believe Oromis will die along with Murgtuagh who in the End will betray Galby and side with Eraon.

you think islandzandi will die? i thought elves live foreever lol

They do, but she could lead the elven army as her husband did. I don't think she will in case she does die their is no heir to the throne. Arya could take it, but I don't think she will and also I think she abdicated her spot in favor to carrier Saphira's egg.

I don't think Islanzadi will die either. Ayra won't be the heir. So who would that tho if say that she did die.

Right, Smurf, there is noone there to take the throne. Also, if she died it would crush an already emtional depressed Arya. Her character is one of pain, like Eragon, who has lost so much and not had much good luck here lately. Losing a mother would devaste her, esspecialy if she dosen't get the green egg and even if she did she would be emtionally drained.

I think Oromis and Glaedr and Galbatorix will die as well as many other less important characters.

oromis and glaedr will die because oromis hasn't got much longer to live

back 2 the topic: who else had a blue dragon named saphira? brom duh! eragon's sword is broms old sword which is the weapon under the menoa tree! u no what else? i have a really strong feeling that it's just 2 easy 4 cp 2 say that morzan waz eragon's father! its just 2 easy so... what if brom waz eragons father! that makes since cause his sword would b eragons inheritance and since he waz a rider thats how eragon became 1! not through morzan but through brom! that makes since 2 me! besides cp left a strong clue hintin that n eldest u no when he waz n the elves forest the little anoyin bird flew n the window and gave him that riddle? i hope some 1 else agrees with me ! and i hope im on topic cause i 4 got what it waz

maybe brom's sword is hidden under menoa tree.

That could be possible, but i dont think Brom is eragon's father. its just 2 likely.

He could already have gotten his weapon?

It'll be Brom's weapon I'm pretty sure...

Maybe becoming elf like was his weapon.

Maybe the lady who used to make the Rider's swords made one last sword before her vow, and it was like Saphira's colored scales, and she hid it under the roots of the mena tree.

That would work, but wouldn't she tell him that it is there?

Who knows? Elves are pretty mysterious, after all.

Or she has not had the chance yet, and another reason I do not think that will work is that they hardly ever leave her house.

I believe it is much more likely that that he will get Oromis' sword

but tha doesn't match Saphira's scales.

Nether did Zarac, and begars can not be choosers

I don't see your point.

There are many different dragon colors: white, black, brown, blue, gold, red, green, etc. and there are only five swords
Galby: Black
Oromis: Gold
Murtagh: Red
Family: Unkown
Family 2: Unkown
Well I think that it is very unlikely it will be a certain persons sword, unless Oromis. How would you only find Broms' sword and not the others. That is what I mean.
Plus Eragon the first sword was white because of the white dragon so those would not be the same.

Who said Galbatorix's sword is black?

I am assuming so because his dragon is black

But he had a different dragon before that.

But he has the ability to change the color of the sword, just put in a different gem and say spell.

Really? i didn't know that. We should get back on topic.

OK so I believe that Solumbum is telling the truth. I believe that he is going to get Oromis' sword under the tree, or that his weapon was becoming elf like

I believe Solembum is telling the truth, too, but I'm not so sure about your other opinions

What is wrong with the second part of my theory?

In my opinion, I don't think it is right.

Then what is the right one?

I wouldn't know. I haven't read the third book.

Do you have an opinion? You have heard mine
