In a small and happy village was born an amazing baby
Small, frail and smiling he would soon be destined for glory
Loved praised and cherished, the little hero felt nothing but happiness
Only when surrounded by loved ones he was the happiest
With the heart of a lion and the courage to lift mountains
Always virtuous he always repays his debts no matter what the amount is
Many were drawn to him by his charisma and charm
Especially a girl whose smile was enough to disarm
As fate brought them together, it was fate that set them apart
It was on a rainy day that a creature broke his heart
It destroyed nearly half the village and only desolation was on sight
On that accursed day the broken hero’s heart did ignite
Eager to slay the creature, he was restless and kept searching
For days and nights desperately trying to forget he was hurting
Day after day he was approaching his goal, he felt it
It wouldn’t be too long before he could appease his guilt, he knew it
His hunt brought him at the bottom of a mountain
Armed with anger and sorrow he had the courage of a thousand
Climbing with only one thing in mind
He soon arrived at the top head high with pride
And beneath the azure sky with no cloud so clear,
The most beautiful creature, a dragon flew without a fear,
Its scales the hue of sapphire, reflecting the sun were bright,
It was without a doubt the most Majestic, awe-inspiring sight.
That day he had the chance to meet a dragon so rare,
Whose name was Saphira, beautiful beyond compare,
And though they started as foes that day,
They became companions, Eragon and Saphira, forever to stay.
