EragonThis adventure takes place in a land named Alagasia. Far into the mountains lies a small, out of sight village in which lives a young boy named Eragon. Young and still naive, Eragon as a hunter ventures into forbidden woods and discovers a large stone. Eragon tries trading it for food, but eventually discovers that is an egg, a dragon egg, which have not been seen in the land for over 100 years. The egg hatches and a fledgling dragon emerges forth. Eragon raises the dragon in secret but is eventually discovered by an old storyteller named Brom. Soon after this, evil creatures named the “Ra’zac” storm into the village seeking Eragon’s dragon, who he’s now named Saphira. After a series of events, Eragons uncle Garrow is killed by the Ra’zac. Eragon, now miles away from the village, pledges to avenge his uncles death. Followed by Brom and his dragon Saphira, Eragon’s epic journey into an adventurous world begins…Characters Eragon The main protagonist of the story.
