Summary
Eragon stared at her brother for a few moments, and then ended the spell. The vision faded before her eyes and revealed her face: brow furrowed in worry and despair, ghostly in her white sleeping shift, hair tangled in a cloud around her frowning visage.
She ducked her head, unwilling to face the confusion in her own eyes.
I have to bring him here, she thought desperately. This cannot continue.
Or, when they fail to connect, Murtagh and Eragon go back to the beginning.

Summary
"White blade, black wings. Fate does not favor you, bone-ear. Too much suffering for a human, but you are not one, are you? You're on a twisted path, each one with consequences you can't fathom. Your failure will save thousands of lives and your triumph will cast kingdoms into the abyss. Heart of steel, will of iron. Only one knows how to restrain you, much older than his years, inexperienced and wise at the same time. Only one of your paths leads to harmony. Make your choices wisely, vengeful one, for your wrath will cause waves that will force the Beor Mountains to their knees."
Linnëa is chosen. She is brought before the dragon eggs, which since the fall of Galbatorix ten years ago, have already produced four new riders. She plans to be the fifth - but when the shadows of the past catch up with her and unimaginable suffering befalls her, she must choose. Between duty and justice, benevolence and madness, she meets one who has suffered similarly to herself. But two ships in a storm can easily break each other apart...
