AIRAVAT AND SAPHIRA..

In todays world, conspiracy theories abound. They are part of the
ethereal mist, they pervade everything, from 9/11 to kellogs
cornflakes. Heres another.
In his telling of the story of eragon the rider, and durza the shade,
Mr. Paolini committed severe follies. To further his vested financial
interests in the story of the poor lad, he modified a tale of true
love into a tale of spiteful battle and cold(well warm) blooded
killing.
How do i know? I was there, when Isidar Mithrim shattered. I had run
at Saphira(the dragon) with my 4 and a half inch dagger, only to be
singed by her flames and see my dagger sent flying through the air to
land harmlessly on the other side on the chamber. I am a dwarf of the
Ingeitum clan, and much pain it had given me to see our beloved star
sapphire being shattered into a million pieces.
Here is the true account of what really happened that fateful day. Mr.
Paolini got it right till the part where isidar mithrim shattered.
Well, almost. Durza wasnt on his feet. Shades are smart jacks, they
dont go to battle against mounted enemies on foot. Durza had his very
own magic elephant, about saphira's size and was atop it. Our poor lad
of course was on his feet, having been tricked out of his dragon by
some scheming elves.
Then the giant blue thing came sweeping down with that pristine beauty
on its back. It was here that Mr.Paolini made the first of his volley
of mistakes. Rather than the sword action which he describes in his
bestseller book, what happen was that the blue thing looked at the
elephant with its lazy eyes, and the elephant did the like, and their
eyes met, and they fell in love.
Its hard to tell from the look alone that they had fallen in love,
what went on after that first look convinced me of that fact. The
elephant reared, promptly disposing of Durza and Saphira somersaulted
in air(even the elf's deft movements couldnt keep her on top of the
dragon in love), and then saphira rushed down towards the elephant and
singed it a little with a short flame. They rushed towards each other
and saphira put her front legs around the elephant who replied with
putting his trunk around saphiras neck.
As they disengaged, the elephant held saphira's forelegs in his, and
then they waltzed around the chamber, neatly avoiding the shattered
glass on the floor. Eragon looked at Durza and smiled, Durza smiled
back, saying- "looks like our rides have settled the question for us,
I shall not fight you any more". Eragon replied with a polite
smile-"same here, lets go back from this thrice accursed place". At
this point, this dwarf could bear it no longer, and knowing that even
the most brave of the ingeitum would stand no chance of trouncing a
dragon and all its friends, rushed out to get the rest of the dwarf
army to put an end to people calling isidar mithrim "thrice accursed".
He was singed again and fell down only barely conscious.
Eragon and Durza are the best of friends now, living across the road
in nowheresville and spending their evenings discussing what to do
about the recession in america. Between them, theyll soon think of
something, at least, Im hopeful. The agent of Mr. Paolini was able to
convince them to star in the second and third installment in the
series but they were disillusioned when Durza was given so serious
role. Eragon had refused to contract himself out for the fourth
installment. Tough negotiations are on, but Eragon is obstinately
stuck, which explains the long delay in the fourth installments
making.
Mr.Paolini has(as reported in the Times London) died of starvation
yesterday evening. Foul play? You bet!Vote for me now! Blogomania 2010 sponsored by Odyssey360 | The 24 hour online book store with 5 milion books to choose from.
