Summary
Saphira's in a rut. She direly needs to mate, but there's no dragons around.
But Eragon... Well, he's small, but Saphira isn't so big that she'd break him so long as she does it right. At least, not physically.
Besides, he's stressed out. Maybe a rut might do him some good and get rid of some of those pesky inhibitions.
Either way, one thing was for sure - Saphira needed to rut, and Eragon was most definitely going to enjoy it.

Summary
What would have happened if Murtagh had not grown up in Urû’baen and had met Nasuada early on? If Ajihad had survived and if Eragon had not rushed to confess his love to Arya? If Galbatorix had taken a more active role in the Inheritance Cycle plot than in the books? These and many other mysteries I will try to answer in this story.

Summary
"There will come a woman, from the outerlands, from a world beyond the world. She will be marked by flowers, human in many counts but monstrous in others. Hell will follow in her wake. The lands will be soaked with blood, the seas will overflow with the spilled life energy of the world. And she will drink them dry, and rule over the husk of a dead land. A pale queen, for a dead people."
Akari Kiyoko, better known as Razorwire Rose by the CCG, is a ghoul just trying to survive and protect her own in Tokyo. Precariously walking the tightrope between hiding behind her human persona and seeking vengeance against the doves that have taken so much from her. Until one fateful night when she falls off it, into the abyss opening up to wait her.
But her story would not end so easily. Now, the young ghoul finds herself thrust into a world utterly foreign to her, saddled with new responsibilities and new enemies. As forces both foreign and local encircle her and those close to her, how will Akari change the fate of Alagaësia? What ripples will this new player in the game of power and revolution bring with her, and what will be left in her bloody wake?

Summary
What if Brom had run sooner—farther?
If, instead of carving out a resistance in shadow and silence, he had fled with Selena and her child to the very edges of the Empire—beyond where the King's breath could reach, beyond even the memory of oaths and fire—what would they have become?A girl- born of Morzan’s blood but shaped by forest air and her mother’s hands. Would she have grown brave and sharp-edged like Selena, or would the old cruelty have shown in her gaze when no one was looking?
This is a story of the life that almost was—a life not traced in ash and vengeance, but in moss-lined paths and quiet defiance.
No blades, no Riders. Just a man who chose love over war, a woman who had already lost too much, and the child between them who might have rewritten everything.She might have learned to name wildflowers before weapons. To read the wind before the language of runes.
She might have laughed like a child should—soft, unburdened, unguarded.
She might have remained unseen.But peace is a thin veil.
And even in the deep woods, some hungers do not sleep.
The past does not stay buried. It watches. It waits.
And sometimes, it sends a name instead of a shadow. -

Τι θα είχε συμβεί αν ο Μέρταγκ δεν είχε μεγαλώσει στην Ουρου'μπαίην κι αν είχε από νωρίς γνωρίσει τη Ναζουάντα; Αν ο Άτζιχαντ είχε επιζήσει κι αν ο Έραγκον δεν είχε βιαστεί να εκμυστηρευτεί τον έρωτά του στην Άρυα; Αν ο Γκαλμπατόριξ είχε πιο ενεργό ρόλο στην πλοκή της Κληρονομιάς απ' ότι στα βιβλία; Τόσα κι άλλα τόσα μυστήρια θα προσπαθήσω να απαντηθούν σ' αυτή την ιστορία.

Summary
Just before Oromis can declare Galbatorix mad, Vrael steps in.

Summary
As the Battle of Urû'baen draws to a close, Galbatorix utters two words that tear the fabric of Eragon's life asunder:
"Be not."
While the Eldunarí are able to protect his companions, Eragon knows that their power won't be enough. Unwilling to see his brother and his dragon, his liege, his partner-of-mind-and-heart, and his—shieldmate? beloved?—dearest friend perish in the blast, he casts a spell guaranteeing their lives: but at the cost of his own. The un-making of Galbatorix is the un-making of himself, too, and Eragon is ready to make that sacrifice if it means bringing about an age of peace.
Though, when he wakes up in a familiar forest clearing, faced with a familiar blue stone, and with suspicious and frightening gaps in his memory, he cannot help but wonder what forces are at play…and what those forces would ask him to sacrifice now.
An end-of-Inheritance divergence that puts Eragon in something of a time loop, forcing choices upon him that both redefine and reinforce his very being. What will Eragon do now, knowing that all of his actions lead, have led, and will lead to the inevitable end of all he holds dear?

Summary
M for first chapter having non-explicit sex, T for second. Set in the MIC/Modern Inheritance Cycle series.
Fäolin loved her, and Arya loved him. Now Eragon loves her, and Arya loves Eragon.
There's always something...different, though. The different ways the two men saw the world and the way they saw her.
Fäolin wasn't wrong, and neither was she. But they weren't...they weren't always right, either, like neither of them quite saw the whole picture. Or maybe they did, and tried to forget. But Eragon? He saw it all, and never tried to hide. And he never wanted her to either.
