The story __Brisingr__ is the 3rd book in a series about a mythical world. The country he lives in has fallen into the hands of an evil dragon rider. Dragon riders first came around when the elves and dragons fought from at the beggining of time. They desided that there conflicts were foolish and made a pact where dragons and elves lived side by side in a close relationship. From this came the birth of dragon riders, they were the most powerful beings on the planet and watched over everyone. The humans eventually became part fot his pact and now there are human dragon riders. As time passed a group of dragon riders called the forsworn rose to power killing all other riders and dragons. There leader, Galbatorix, is the only one of them remaining and now controls alagaesia with an iron fist. To the south of Alagaesia the dwarfs and a group of people that call themselves the Varden are looking to strike back at Galbatorix and his unlimited power. The Vardens rallying point is Eragon and Saphira. Eragon hatched Saphire in the previous few years and there power has grown vastly due to there training with there masters in the elven forest's. Not a sole person new that there was another dragon and rider hiding in the massive forest besides the elven queen and a few select people. Eragons masters are crippled but still enchances Eragons and Saphiras powers immensly. As the Varden marches foward they lay seige to cities and prevail due to Eragons power. As the elves leave their forest for the first time in centuries Eragons master comes out only to face Galbatorixs' newest rider who is filled with evil. The master is killed and Eragon almost gets himself killed as he sees an image of this in his head. The story ends with them completing the seige on one of the last cities before they reach the capitol where Galbatorix is waiting. Shortly before they started the seige on the city at the end of the book Eragon went to get a new sword forged after his last one was stolen from him from Galbatorixs' evil apprentice. This is where the story got its name, the women who forged all of the swords for dragon riders ever swore she would never make another after the forsworn took over. Eragon comes up with the idea that she can go into his mind and with her mind take over his so her mind with his body makes the sword. Once the sword was forged they needed to come up with a name for it, Eragon named it Brisingr. Brisingr means fire in the ancient language. Now when ever Eragon says "brisingr" his sword lights up into flames, which is pretty awesome when he breaks a gate open by melting steel bars with his sword.
