The Fencing Master by dragonriderofold

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.

To See the World in Colour by fuskinari
Fandoms: The Inheritance Cycle - Christopher Paolini
06 Jun 2025
Tags
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
They navigated for days. The days turned chillier. Until one day, an immense wall made of ice surged in the distance. When Eragon and Saphira discover Westeros, it's not exactly the place they expected to raise dragons and train riders.
When Jon Snow woke up after the Battle of the Bastards, he never expected to see a blue dragon in the courtyard of Winterfell, let alone a talkative one.

Summary
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.

Disparate: Book One by TitanGuildRegalia

Summary
Eragon doesn't grow up the same as the books. A bit of a rework if you will. Well, its completely different. There will be some similar situations, Eragon doesn't start out with the Varden. Eragon never got to know his own family, he was taken as an infant and raised in Uru'baen. His life was far from ideal and he has faced many struggles to get to where he is.
*Originally this was meant to be just changing Eragon's circumstances, but I have changed much of it including character ages and I've taken some other liberties. I hope you read and enjoy*
Revising first several chapters while continuing to update with new chapters.This story is now complete, but might have some revisions.
So a coworker saw the title of this and thought it was a typo. Its not, I promise.

Brothers by Dragons by darkfire1220
Fandoms: The Inheritance Cycle - Christopher Paolini
19 Nov 2023

Summary
Eragon and Murtagh have grown up together with their uncle Garrow and cousin Roran since childhood. One night, they discover two stones; one blue, one red. When out from the stones hatch a pair of dragons, the brothers are pulled into the dangerous life of rogue Dragon Riders as they are hunted by the evil King Galbatorix and his terrifying servants. Taken in by storyteller Brom, they travel for the Varden, the resistance force fighting the empire.
Eragon is barely 16, unprepared for the challenges ahead of them, and always getting into trouble. His dragon, Saphira, has her work cut out for her keeping him alive. But as their journey goes on, he finds his dreams plagued by a beautiful woman in terrible pain...a pain he must soon face himself.
Murtagh is only just a man, worried that his younger brother is not ready for a life of war, and unsuspecting of his own origins. He and his dragon Thorn have plenty of things to keep an eye out for as their situation worsens. Though Murtagh thinks he understands the world, one of Galbatorix's hunters could shake everything he thought he knew.
With the Varden just clinging on and their lives dangling by a thread, the brothers are in for the fight of their lives.

Summary
Brom and Morzan become Dragon Riders under the guidance of Oromis and Glaedr. The rise of Galbatorix to the throne of Alagaësia. The young Arya as a human ambassador. Selena's acquaintance with Morzan and her role as the Black Hand. The birth of Murtagh and Nasuada. Ajihad is freed and seeks the Varden. Hefring steals Saphira's egg from the king. The love between Brom and Selena. The birth of Eragon. Angela and Solembum's prophecy. The story of Durza and the Ra’zac. Eragon meets his other half, Saphira.
I made an attempt to see our familiar heroes with fresh eyes. Lifting the curtain slightly—the one draped over them—I peeked behind it for a moment. And what I glimpsed truly left me breathless. What we knew about them was only the surface. Beneath lies a world of choices, regrets, and untold truths. Come, let’s live through these stories together for a while, reliving the heroes’ distant, glorious days. Let’s experience their moments of joy and sorrow, their anguish or wild passions. Let’s share in their thoughts, emotions, and hopes. Brom, Morzan, Oromis, Galbatorix, Selena, Ajihad, Eragon, Murtagh, Arya, and other heroes will come close to us for a time. -

Enduring by TitanGuildRegalia
Fandoms: Eragon (2006), The Inheritance Cycle - Christopher Paolini
13 Apr 2025
Tags
Summary
This sequel completely ignores anything after Inheritance, so names, places, characters will likely be different. I have not read either of the two new books and prefer to pretend like they don't exist. This will be slower to update.
Two decades is a long time to be gone from home. Things change, for better or for worse. Eragon has had twenty years to build/change relationships with his friends/allies/family. Letters/mirrors can't tell us everything about the people we love. What happens when he goes back home? Who will lift him up and who will bring him down?
If you want cold or spiteful Eragon, this is not a story for you.
If you think a man can have a past, but a woman can't, this may not be a story for you.
If you believe that someone can love more than one person in their lifetime, this may be a story for you.
If you believe that your greatest love doesn't have to be your first love, this may be a story for you.
If you believe people can change and forgive, this may be a story for you.
If you know that there is more than one way to have a healthy relationship, this may be a story for you.
Fäolin is mentioned briefly, if you can handle that, then this may be a story for you. -
