A new king

Disclaimer:Eragon belongs to christopher Paolini.This chapter is in honor of Galbatorix. May he rot in Karris's backyard. What happens after the end in no way affects the story.

Murtagh stared down at the sword in shock. It didn't matter if he could heal the wound. Eragon then ripped the blade up killing him instantly. Eragon then blasted a hole in the ground. He threw Murtagh in the hole, covered his body and stuck Zarroc in the grave. The only mark that Murtagh was buried there. Karris put one hand on Eragon's shoulder. "I did the same to Galbatorix. His body no lies in my backyard." Eragon relaxed slightly. "Didn't you rent that house?" Karris shrugged and they both walked off. "Deppressing isn't it? At first you think it's difficult killing innocents. Later when you get used to that it's only difficult killing someone you care about. That never becomes easy." In silence they returned to Uru'baen.

Eragon and Karris were supposed to report to the people who now dweled in the palace. They had managed some decent repairs on Uru'baen but it was nowhere near repaired. Karris and Eragon planned to repair the city immpressively. They desperately needed to get Karris popular. People had already started being sympathetic towards Karris after Eragon started endorsing him. Although the bulk of voters were humans there were some elves and dwarves who would vote too. But most of them had returned to their homes. Saphira had pressed them to return to Farthen Dur. She had a promise to furfill.

All was quiet in the dwarven halls. As many dwarves as good fit into the halls stood their. After the healing of the star rose, the new dwarf king would be announcent. Karris was fitted out in green robes that were the excact same colour as Eridor's scales. He spoke quietly and mournfully and the star roses fragments lifted high into the air. They stuck to their old position. Eragon was outfitted in blue robes that matched Saphira's scales. She flew up into the air and hovered next to the star rose. Eridor couldn't fit in the halls so he was waitning outside. Saphira snorted and blue smoke emitted from her nostrils. The smoke carresed every piece of gem and drew it closer together. Their was complete silence. No dwarf seemed to move or breath. The pieces of gem disappeared and a massive explosion followed. In it's place stood the star rose , excacly as it was before, except that it now gave off a faint blueish light. The very mountain seemed to shake under the dwarves cheering.

Their was a great banquet in Saphira's honor. Every dwarf came and kissed the floor at Saphira's feet. Karris sat and was drinking himself into a stupor, yet he still seemed completely sober. Eragon drank little and waited. Orik came and stood on the table. "Here's to Saphira, The star rose and the dead! Here's to Eragon and all he had slain! Here's to Karris and Horthgar and Nasuada! And here's to our new king! Garnwane! Of Durnst Medagnog!" The dwarves cheered loudly and occasionally shouted out random names like to Eragon!. Karris nudged Eragon and voiced what they both felt. "They had won, we had lost."

Karris and Eragon spend their time repairing and building houses. The poeple fell in love with the energetic Karris. He even restored the trees to their former glory. Nasuada however asked them "Would it be fair to have a ruler that never ages of dies?" She asked this politely in the council. So far Nasuada had the most support , followed by Karris and then Orrin. Arya had very few votes , but she wanted that way. She had publicly voiced she no wish to become the queen of the empire.Karris laughed. "The elves ruler never ages or dies. And besides I am a warrior unlike Galbatorix. I will see to any potensial threats personally. My mortality rate will be far lower." Orik and the clan leaders clapped. The dwarves gave their full support to him. The elves gave him none. He also had a small amount of human support. "The election is in three days." Stated Vanir. "You had beter get ready."

Karris then played his masterstroke. He started gathering large food supplies and gave it to the people. Although the Varden had ensured nobody starved , many still wanted food. He got the food from Dras Leona and Teirm. He had paid for the food with the diamonds that remained at Brom's tomb. Everything now depended on the election.

The election went without any trouble. The elves counted the votes with speed beyond mortals. In two hours they were done. But they weren't happy with what they saw. Islandzi and Garnwane had also came. There were three thones, and one was empty. The four canditates assembeled. Orrin looked grand in brown robes with a thin silver crown. The crown of Surda. Nasuada had worn a sparkingly red dress. Arya had come in leather , refusing to look like the princess she was. Karris had decided to dress like a king. He wore black trousers and boots with a white shirt. Over this he wore his green robes. Eragon was chosen to make the announcment and place the crown on the winner's head. He took up the scroll and said in an impressive voice "The new king of the human empire is Karris!"

Karris had bowed low at these words and the bulk of the people cheered while some looked nervous. "People of the empire!" he cried and all fell silent. "The ancient bloodline of the kings of men have been restored. I as the son of Palancar will rule this land! I will restore the riders and ensure that the same peace falls over our lands! Surda will remain an indepented country" he said nodding at Orrin, who bowed back. "I shall declare no more wars! Peace shall rule in it's stead. The time of Galbatorix will be undone and none shall remeber it save the history books!" he sat down on the throne and the people resumed cheering. Walking slowly Eragon place the crown on his head.

One hour later Eragon and Karris were standing on top of the tallest tower of Uru'baen palace, staring across the horizon. Karris smiled his first true smile. A smile without fear,cruelty of sorrow. Eragon smiled at the sight. "Are you okay?" Eragon asked happily. Karris turned to face him. "I can see clearly now" he whispered. Eragon looked at his eyes. All trace of yellow was gone. The were an icredibly dark green. Karris straightend. "My pain is gone."

The End

Of last of the forsworn

And now for my readers!

Karaoke night! Disclaimer:I don't own these songs. They belong to Green day and the Bloodhound Gang.

Karris steps up boldly. This is a variation of "Holiday!" he cried boldly. It's called "The forsworn way!"

Hear the sound of the falling rain!

Coming down like an angry dragons flames!

The shame

The ones who died without a true name

Hear the soldiers howling out of Key

To a hymn called "Thorn and Misery!"

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies

We won't stop untill the last rider dies

It's the forworns way!

Hear the drum pounding pounding out of time

Another elf has crossed the line

To find the power belongs to the other side

Can I get another soul?

There's a flag wrapped around a score of men

A gag
A price tag on a race's king!

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies!

We won't stop until the last rider dies

It's the forsworn's way!

The representative from the forsworn now has the floor!

Break away from the riders grasp men

Swift deaths are their punishments!

Pulversize the filthy elves

Who criticize you religion!

Bang Bang goes the broken promises

Kill all the fags who don't agree.

Trails by fire, setting fires

It's the way that was meant for me

Because, Beacuase were outlaws!Yeah!

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies!

We won't stop until the ladt rider dies

It seem our lives are based on the forsworn's way!

Eragon being the only other contestant stepped up next. "This song is deticated to Arya" he cried. Arya prepared to run. And only Karris clapped, Oromis looked faint. "This is a variation of I'm the least you could do!" Now everyone was shocked but Karris who wasn't really listening.

It always suck doing the kind of task that stop you picking up chicks!

Needed because of an evil King, I can't get girls

I better stop before I sound even more dumb!

It isn't your mind I want you do give me a piece of

And It doesn's take an elf to now that's just obscene

But it's been Karris time since I hit other than rock bottom

Even the odds of having you against me

With your tight leather clothes

I will lose eventually

Ohhhh...But I'm the least you could do

If only live was as easy as you!

Ohh...But I'm the least you could do

Oh Yeah! If only live was as easy as you

I would still get screwed

If only...

When my fumbling breaks you should

I thank Vanir for the damaged goods?

"Hmmm..." said Karris slightly shocked. "So that's what would've happened if Eragon had no manners in the starrey glade"

Please tell me what you thought of the Songs!

Thanks to all my reviewers!
