Summary
What should have just been an outreach mission to help heal and treat citizens of a recently captured city goes wrong. Arya finds herself tossed into her own mind with little to no control over anything around her, watching confused and in pain as the world whips by. Outside her body, Eragon, Saphira, Glen, Blödhgarm and the other spellcaster guards work franticly to stabilize her, uniting as a family Eragon and Saphira had not quite realized had formed around them.
(More tags and characters to be added with updates. The first chapter only has Arya's POV, the rest will be Eragon and others.)
(Somewhat on hiatus. There is a chapter complete ready to go, but I want to be sure I have things for the next parts somewhat done before posting, and my brain has been moosh for months now. Thank you anyone still interested in this and other Modern Inheritance stories! Still working on it and stumbling, but I will return.)

Summary
As it turns out, Percy’s luck didn’t get any better after the last war ended. Neither did Jason’s.
Yeah, the muses weren’t happy. At all. There were some one-of-a-kind things in there and some old scrolls and papyrus rolls that could not be recovered. They were all worth a lot of money too. So when the nine muses showed themselves, Jason and Percy knew they were fucked. Luckily, the muses were not that pissed off and didn’t smite them where they stood. No, instead they just decided to punish them when truly, it was the giant who threw a burning cannonball onto their bags who should have been punished.
So here they are… inside a book. With one objective... making it a 'good' ending.

Summary
It's difficult to fight a war if you're on your own side, instead of fighting for one of the two warring factions.
Galbatorix and Morzan see that a bit differently.
Much to everyone else's frustration.Series

Summary
Three years after the fall of Galbatorix, Murtagh is sent by Eragon to act as the rider liaison to Iliria. Murtagh and now-Queen Nasuada become reacquainted with each other, and must decide if they have a future together. Murtagh struggles with the past, feeling that he can't give Nasuada everything she deserves, and Nasuada has to balance her duties as Queen with the desires of her heart.
(This is Part 3 of a canon-compliant series following Murtagh Post-Inheritance. The first two parts are "Tornac of the Road" and "The Dark Hours". You can enjoy this story by itself, but some background and contextual things will not make sense.)

Summary
Thirty some years have passed since Eragon Shadeslayer and Saphira Brightscales left Alagaesia with a cohort of elves, eldunari, dragon eggs, and his brother Murtagh with his dragon Thorn to rebuild the Riders from the ground up.
But when a suspiciously timed assasination attempt of both Queen Arya and Nasuada is foiled thanks to increasingly cryptic visions by Eragon and Murtagh . Their prescence is demanded back the snaking courts of Illiria and Ellesmera. Ugly age old plots rear their heads for the first time, zealous remnants of tyrants past plot the overthrow of the status quo. While the slow moving courts of the Elves picks up the speed of their schemes at a frightening pace. Two brothers for two courts. Slowly and inexorably, Eragon and Murtagh must uncover a plot older than the time of Galbatorixes reign as High King while navigating predatory lords, ancient foes, and a rapidly changing & dangerous political landscape.

Summary
I have recently started Fireborne after finishing the Inheritance Cycle and suddenly I got this crazy idea going that the Aurelian Cycle characters are magically transported into Alagaësia and become Eragon’s new Dragon Riders, and yes I have only read up to chapter 6/7/8 (I have no idea at this point) of Fireborne but I do not care because it’s such an epic story. :) PS: Main POVs are Lee, Annie, and Eragon.
