Summary
"I will stay."
Murtagh's promise to Nasuada is not in The Ancient Language. It isn't even a proper oath. But it binds him as firmly as any oath he's ever sworn. A brutalised rider of a brutalised dragon, in a brutalised nation, all of them trying to work out how to exist in a world after Galbatorix. Why does this promise so bind Murtagh?
You know why.Or
This is a story about redemption, forgiveness, and restoration. It is a story of hope.
Or
Paolini left the end of the book Murtagh as a classical romance set up. It would be a crime not to use it.
Picks up a matter of days after the end of canon as it stands in late 2025. Intended almost as the next book in the series. Word count will be 145K when fully posted.

Summary
Set within the first century of the Charter, the fledgling New Kingdom threatens to break apart with political turmoil and enemies on all sides. To the North, Morcar, the greatest warrior in the land and illegitimate, abandoned son of King Palanor Uallus strives to bring together scattered tribes and claim what he believes to be his birth right - the throne of the New Kingdom. To the South, a mercenary who has made his fortune in distant lands returns to find his homeland and family irrevocably changed, forcing him to seek justice outside the law of the land. Within the fragile New Kingdom itself, an orphaned nobleman rises through the ranks of the Royal Guard to avenge his slaughtered family, and royal brother and sister - Willem and Helenae - vye for power as the death of their father, the King, unsettles the entire realm.
