Dedicated to Wild Blood Rose, who also deserves credit for the creation of the Eragon section.

Touch one, Touch one

If you dare –

You'll find you're in

For quite a scare

Of burning light,

Of flashing pain,

Another voice inside

Your brain.

And the shinning mark

Upon your hand

Calls you to fly

Above the land

You cannot stop-

It calls you still –

What happens is

Beyond your will.

So you say the word-

Your palm grows brighter

For you are now

A Dragonrider.
