Agreed. But his dreams were not a part of the prophecy. They were developed throughout the series and were unnecessary. I think Paolini's original intention was to have Eragon go away along forever and just had to develop the details throughout.
I could think of like 100 endings that would be better and still work with the prophecy thing... Except for the fact that Eragon actually SAW himself leaving in the boat and saying goodbye to Arya twice in his dreams.
It was kinda like you saved us all and you are sentenced to be forever alone training dragons to send back to your home. Have fun! Like was that necessary? I feel like the ending could have been different while still fulfilling the prophecy from the first book.
@wolf3@hippolvr17 I know I was so sad and I started crying and couldn't stop (yah that's kinda embarrassing, but whatever). I thought that at least if Eragon and Arya didn't get to stay together Murtagh should have gone with Eragon. I felt so bad for Eragon that he went alone
@TFK19@wolf3 I so agree! They all were so happy and life was perfect... For like a page. Why couldn't they leave Murtagh in charge of the dragons and riders in alagaesia and have Arya stay with Eragon? Life would have been perfect then!
@TFK19@hippolovr17 i really didnt like that Eragon left without Arya. they were perfect. and i kinda felt bad for Saphira and Firnen, cause they couldnt see each other again.
Yeah I totally agree. It kinda was like I understand he had to leave but really was that necessary? What you wanted to happen from the beginning finally happened and then nope. Had to ruin it.
