Eragon travels to a special mountain range, Du Weldenvarden, to complete his Dragon Rider training. When the king of the Varden, Ajihad, is ambushed and executed, Eragon knows he can only help the resistance if he develops his special skills. There’s little he can do against the king on his own, and he hasn’t been training with dragons for very long. Eldest begins just as this first battle against King Galbatorixends.Īlthough Eragon does well in the battle, he knows he’s untrained and weak. Some of Eragon’s friends go missing, and he’s desperate to find them again. They stand against the evil king, King Galbatorix, with some success, but they’re not yet strong enough to defeat him. At the end of Eragon, Eragon has joined a rebel resistance group called the Varden. When the dragon hatches, Eragon calls her Saphira. He once found a stone in the mountains that turned out to be a dragon’s egg. He’s fifteen years old and lives in the fictional village of Carvahall on the continent of Alagaësia.
