Obsessed with the mysterious blind man whom Angela had predicted the future. Who was him? Was his fate so important to the point to attract Solembum and Angela' attention and why? Had him to do with Eragon story? Is he still alive? Is he the antagonist of the next book?? Was he a Rider that survived without his dragon?? Am I going insane????

whats your favorite fictional cat?
I like Solembum from the Inheritance Cycle, but I'm not entirely sure if he counts, being a were-cat after all.

Eragon trivia i found interesting bc why not
Saphira could not imagine going into battle looking anything but her best (Inheritance, pg 316)
the High Priest of Helgrind had mental battle tactics Eragon had never experience before, such as binding the stray thoughts of Eragon, Arya, and Solembum to one another, thus making them briefly lose track of their identity (Inheritance, pg 309)
the dragons were the greatest enemies of the Ra’zac (Inheritance, pg 290)
Saphira referred to a powerful storm as ”wing-breaking” (Inheritance, pg 266)
Arya had wanted to continue serving her mother as ambassador of the elves after the war’s end (Inheritance, pg 250)
She also thought that too little happens in Ellesméra (Inheritance, pg 250)
Saphira does not like not knowing if someone is creeping up on her. she said it makes her scales itch (Inheritance, pg 249)
Arya’s eyes shimmer in the light (Inheritance, pg 249). this can be assumed to be an elven trait
Garven, once a guard of Nasuada, had been reduced to a slack-jawed dreamer after delving into the minds of Blödhgarm and his eleven other elves (Inheritance, pg 247). he later recovered, though his gaze still held a dreamy quality (pg 374)
When sparring with Eragon, Arya uttered a soft, catlike growl (Inheritance, pg 239). this can be assumed to be an elven trait
according to Glaedr, the way of the warrior is the way of knowing (Inheritance, pg 235)
Had it not been for Eragon and Saphira and Glaedr’s duty to them, Glaedr would have gone mad a long time ago [after the death of Oromis] (Inheritance, pg 230)
every time Saphira thought of Thorn, she became confused and uncertain, something she was unaccustomed to (Inheritance, pg 315)
Saphira thought of Eragon as a fierce hunter thatvwas small and easily squished (Inheritance, pg 317)
Saphira referred to Arya as dragon-blood-elf (Inheritance, pg 319)
dragon blood is scalding in temperature (Inheritance, pg 331)
Thorn has talons as large as a man (Inheritance, pg 331)
the elf Wyrden, one of Eragon and Saphira’s twelve elven bodyguards, was among Queen Islanzadí’s oldest and most powerful spellcasters (Inheritance, pg 336)
after seeing Wyrden’s funeral, Eragon wanted an apple tree planted over him so that his friends and family could eat the fruit of his body (Inheritance, pg 339)
Arya joked with Eragon that she could’ve kept the Shade Varaug as a slave to do her bidding (Inheritance, pg 340)
by the battle of Dras-Leona, Saphira was larger than a house, with Thorn larger than two houses due to Galbatorix’s meddling (Inheritance, pg 350). considering the average (two-storied) house is 20ft tall, this would make Saphira 20+ feet at the shoulder and Thorn 40+ feet. they both have claws, fangs, and spikes larger than Eragon’s body
Nar Garzhvog tore a man apart with his bare hands as easily as Eragon would tear apart a roast chicken (Inheritance, pg 351)
Arya was far more accomplished at manipulating others than Eragon (Inheritance, pg 362)
Eragon dreamed of his and Saphira’s departure from (the mainland of) Alagaesia before it came to pass (Inheritance pg 373)
werecats were the friends of dragons and Dragon Riders (Inheritance, pg 380)
there are mountains in Alagaesia that might have been formed via magic (Inheritance, pg 382)
the island of Vroengard, in the city of Doru Araeba, contained a crystal fortress (Inheritance, pg 386)
solembum stated that Galbatorix was not the only power in the world to be reckoned with (Inheritance, pg 388)

Reading and rambling: The Fork, the Witch, and the Worm
(Tales from Alagaësia VOLUME 1: ERAGON)
~~~
PART TWO: THE WITCH
IV. Rhymes and Riddles
~~~
The Witch, eh?
Rhymes and Riddles?? My brain is in the wrong fandom right now...
Eragon stared across his desk at Angela the herbalist, studying her.
It's my giiiiirrrrrrllllll!!!! Hey!!!!
Eragon, scoot over.
Actually, no. It's snowing??? It's winter! Was your harvest good? Do you have enough food?
(I, a Floridian in the USA, have never seen snow in real life. Anyway...)
Solembum! Hey, I always have trouble spelling your name. I second guess myself.
. . . but for the most part, the wards Eragon had set kept out the snow and cold.
Wait. You don't have curtains or shutters or SOMETHING? I know they're probably huge, but... brrrr
Elva is there too???
*visibly uncomfortable*
I wonder how her growth and lifespan will be.
Okay okay. We got Eragon who still feels responsible for Elva and cringy about not having finished the hold to live in.
I like how Angela is calling Eragon a different title or name every time. Like same. "Argetlam." "Kingslayer."
The last thing he wanted to do was offend this quicksilver-like woman.
Yes. Don't do that. Ever. I'm one who thinks she's one of the grey ones or whatever they're called. Something I barely remember, but I remember my thoughts of, she must be waaaay older and not human.
". . . how Nasuada's pet spellcasters in Du Vrangr Gata are making life difficult for harmless, innocent hedge witches such as myself."
See? See? I told you! (Okay, maybe not you personally, but I've said it out loud in rants at home.) It's a difficult situation... Tricky. I'd move.
Also, Elva is still so young and has had much thrusted upon her mind. She does have much to learn and some guidance needed. Hopefully nothing unnerving has happened... or was implied.
"An autobiography of sorts, if you will."
Uhh. Angela, what has Elva hinted to you? Or did you sense something? I need details. Are you okay???
Same. Except I have a lot of white hair from years and years of stress and anxiety. And genetics.
The curly-haired woman didn't look any older than her early twenties.
She made an expression of mock outrage. "Here now! You dare question my conviction, Shur'tugal?!"
Reading on, I love whatever kind of friendship this is.
Do you know what fun conversations you could have with them together? Or separately??
She called him, "Bromsson" now. I love her.
OHMYGOODNESS, I WAS JUST TALKING ABOUT THE PUZZLE RING A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO! Of course, I just remembered the puzzle part and how Eragon couldn't figure it out until he was elf-upgraded without his permission.
"And what perspective is yours?" he asked softly.
"That of the ring maker," she answered in an equally soft tone.
Okay. Okay.... Come on, brain, I know it's getting late, but you got this. Goodness, that's a good response, Angela. I mean, she's making the book, writing it, and all. But what else?
Then we have Solembum:
Beware of shadows that walk, human. There are strange forces at work in the world.
Why do I love those two so much? Would my opinion change if I reread the earlier books? (I read Eragon and Eldest in middle school, Brisingr is high school, and Inheritance in college.)
I would probably annoy Eragon with going back and forth talking with Angela if he had questions. Sorry, darling, I have worldly theories to discuss and ones to expand upon. Have a cookie.
Anyway, it looks like I get to read Angela's manuscript too? Yay!!!

Eragon is already Nasuada's vassal, and he's Murtagh's brother, and Murtagh and Nasuada are two inches from being a couple. I'm scraping everyone into a found family. Angela and Elva are in it, too. Solembum, as well. I want all of these people hanging out regularly.
I want Elva babysitting Roran's kid.
I want Nasuada stroking Thorn's head casually as she takes a stroll outside, and Thorn nuzzling into her hand because Thorn, like Murtagh, is very touch-starved and loves Nasuada.
I want Angela casually brewing remedies for insomnia and whatever mild aches Roran doesn't think to mention aloud.
(I'd like to include Orik in this, but the Hrothgar thing is kind of the elephant in the room, Murtagh-wise, and I can't part with the Murtagh/Nasuada ship.)
I want Elva to fall asleep alone in some drawing room in Nasuada's castle and wake up covered in a blanket with Nasuada quietly writing a letter nearby and Eragon and Murtagh discussing the Urgal Olympics in some chairs a few feet away. And she wonders momentarily who gave her the blanket, but shortly decides that it doesn't matter and goes back to napping. Next time she wakes up, Nasuada and Eragon and Murtagh have left the room and Solembum is in cat form sleeping on the same sofa.
I want Angela to babysit Roran's kid.
I want Eragon to have inside jokes with everyone that are incomprehensible to everyone else. He has gone on little side-adventures with all of his friends and relatives individually, so he has little references for all of them.
I want Murtagh and Saphira and Thorn to just...hang out. Like, just sit in a field for hours, talking in their minds.
I also want Blödhgarm to babysit Roran's kid. I really just want Roran's kid to grow up so weird.
