Christopher delivered on his promise to offer fans more closure after Inheritance ended by including a letter written by Jeod, sent to his colleague detailing life for many of our favorite characters after Inheritance ended.
The letter is written to Ertharis, another member of Jeod’s Order, and details what Jeod has observed since Eragon left Alagaesia. His letter discusses his recently-completed manuscript which he refers to as a “History” — no details on what this “History” is, but it’s fair to guess that it chronicles Eragon’s adventures from the day Saphira’s egg hatched to the day they left Alagaesia forever. Included in his letter are highlights from his manuscript detailing the lives and whereabouts of many of the series’ key characters, including:
Eragon and Saphira
Murtagh and Thorn
The dragons’ eggs given to the dwarves and Urgals
Arya and Firnen
Nasuada and her plans to govern Alagaesia’s magic users
Tenga and his mysterious disappearance
The disappearance of Angela the herbalist
Roran Stronghammer
The seeming disappearance of the Ra’zac and Lethrblaka
Galbatorix’s body
Interestingly, the letter references the powerful magics of “The Nameless One”, a character which we know very little about. Who is this “Nameless One”? Is this more groundwork for a potential fifth book?
The letter answers many important questions, but raises completely new ones:
Why have they been unable to recover Galbatorix’s body?
Where has Angela gone? Clearly many others are beginning to seriously question her origins.
Where have Murtagh and Thorn gone, and what have they been doing during their self-imposed exile?
How long will it be before the Urgal and dwarf dragon eggs hatch?
Why and how did Tenga kill the spellcasters sent after him? Where did he disappear to?
