Description This was done by myself and evSewwy: with my line work and her awesome colouring ability. Seriously, check her stuff out it is amazing.

I was inspired by the following passage for this picture (being a massive Eragon fan myself):

SPOILER 'LERTS

'Saphira startled them by loosing a long, mournful keen. still keening, she raked her claws across the floor, chipping and scratching the stones. Her tail whipped from side to side, smashing the furniture and grim paintings on the walls. Gone! she said. Gone! Gone forever!
"Saphira, what's wrong?" exclaimed Arya. When Saphira did not answer, Arya repeated the question to Eragon.
Hating the words he spoke, Eragon said, "Oromis and Glaedr are dead. Galbatorix killed them."
Arya staggered as if she had been hit. "Ah," she said. She gripped the back of the chair so hard, her knuckles turned white. Tears filled her slanted eyes, then spilt over onter her cheeks and coursed down her face. "Eragon." She reached out and grasped his shoulder, and almost by accident, he found himself holding her in his arms. Eragon felt his own eyes grow wet. He clenched his jaw in an effort to maintain his composure; if he started crying, he knew he would not be able to stop.'

"Shadow of Doom" is the name of the Chapter (pp 722 - 739 of "Brisingr"/"Inheritance", Book 3 of the Eragon series by Christopher Paolini)

OMFG thats one of the best pics ive ever seen the movie totally screwed up how the characters should look same in percy jackson the lightning thief movie this is just epic! i really like how you did them leaning against sappire the scale coloring and shading is too realsistic! (and i mean that in a good way)

Aww I hope my picture didnt make you sad or cry! If it did, I am sorry! But I agree. it is such a sad part of the book, and that is what I loved about it, because it was the first time Arya and Eragon connected like that and Arya let that wall between them break down, it made it kind of bitter sweet, and I wanted to try to capture that.
