Night had fallen over Wadjet forest,and the Graduation Party was in full swing.Elves pranced around chanting folk songs and helping themselves to food,and everyone were talking excitedly about what paths they would choose;what they aspired to become in the future. However,everyone were simply too absorbed in their own activities that none of their sharp elven eyes managed to spot the wisp of a shadow lurking around the trees,waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike.

My favorite author

My favorite author is Christopher Paolini who wrote Eragon,Eldest and Brisingr(coming on 23 sep 2008 whee!)Eragon is a fiction story and i love fiction.i also like stories about elves,dragons and knights and all that, and this book fits my likes perfectly.I chose this series over the Harry Potter series as i feel that in the Harry Potter books,when a battle is taking place, all the chracters can do are to shoot spells out of their wands, and when you lose your wand, you're useless.This makes it feel a little boring to me,not like stories where people dress up in armor and take a sword to whack you, its more fun reading those.Harry Potter's some kind of modern fiction, and i don't really like modern stories, stories about the olden times are more fun to read in my opinion.:)

5 Facts about Christopher Paolini:

1.His hometown,Paradise Valley,Montana's jagged Beartooth Mountains inspired the fantastic scenary in Eragon.
2.He was 15 when he wrote the first draft for Eragon
3.The book began as a hobby, a personal challenge; he never intended it to be published.
4.Early in 2007 Christopher realized that the plot and characters demanded more space than could fit in one volume(the third book) and that a fourth book would be necessary to give each story element the attention it deserved. What began as the Inheritance trilogy became the Inheritance cycle.
5.In 2002, Eragon was first published by Paolini International LLC, Paolini's parents' company.However,in Summer 2002, the stepson of author Carl Hiaasen found Eragon in a bookstore and loved it, and Hiaasen brought it to the attention of his publisher, Alfred Knopf.Knopf subsequently made an offer to publish Eragon and the rest of the Inheritance cycle.

However, even though the Wadjet forest had pesky thorns reviled by many,it's edifices were wonderful structures created by magic,created by the elves.The Wadjets were omnivorous, snakelike creatures with minuscule fins of their sides and could spit deadly poison when threatened.Wadjets were able to morph into elves,but you could always see their greenish scaly snake skin showing.The Wadjet forest was also popular due to the hospitality of the Wadjets.After the agreement between the Wadjets and the elves, the Wadjets had an entirely different change in character, and were no longer aggressive or wanting to rule over the elves due to their insatiable hunger for gold, which were abundant in the elven treasury.Little did the Wadjets know that the gold the elves keep "feeding" them with were fake, and were all created by pure magic.Never in their lives wouldthe elves imagine that this fact of bogus gold would become one of the many stepping stones to their doom.

As innocent as they may seem, theWadjets had revolted in the past against the elves due to their megalomania.They had gathered in legions to start a strife against the elves to demand for a better pecuniary situation.Fortunately, the Wadjets and the elves made an agreement and there was no bloodshed.Now, theWadjets lived in sumptuous surroundings,which made Wadjet forest a huge attraction.However, the Wadjet forest was not a safe place to be.Due to the Wadjet's fetish for poison, venomous and lethal thorns and plants overran the forest,and many adventurers have died slowly and painfully by accidentally pricking themselves on the venomous plants.Medicine sellers have made a fortune by parking themselves at the edge of the forest,to make sure everyone who goes in the forest was loaded with antidotes,and they would be loaded with gold.

Raydon was exhilarated. He had graduated from Basic magic school, and had been awarded a marine blue Enchanter's cloak he had been craving for since he entered Basic magic school for being exceptional in magic.The professors had deemed that Raydon was exceptional in magic and awarded him the cloak to further aid him in magic.The usually big cloak had been modified to accommodate to his size, and he romped into the jungle to celebrate graduation day with his peers in the mystical Wadjet forest.

The bogus "Sangea's" body was only a fallacious subterfuge concocted by Sangea to keep those pesky elves out of the way, so that he could go on with his plan.A fre years later, in Frozmoth, a land fraught with savage creatures and labyrinths of ice, a lich, cold and unforgiving,trembled ever so slightly before the massive dark figure emanating a malicious aura to the surroundings."Master, everything is ready except for the sacrifice."the lich reported. "Good,good..."the dark figure mumbled as he gazed into the Gem of Sight showing a young elf prancing in the forest happily,holding what seemd to be an invatation card. The elf seemed so pure,so innocent..the perfect target for the sacrifice. As the lich departed, he swore he could see the faintest hint of a smile on his master's malicious face...





All this seems so dramatic..

The history teacher continued on with his dull droning."And then Sangea activated his dark powers and somehow escaped the impregnable fortress of Arun Fandor, and vanished under the moonlight.Then, a few months later, his body was found in the habitat of the indigenous Dragons,the Dragon's cache, by an explorer. He had the temerity to face the Dragons due to his cupidity and his desire for the Dragon's hoarded wealth and therefore suffered a terrible fate..."

However, Sangea's death was a lie."Sangea's" body had been exquisitely crafted by dark magic to fool the ignorant elves that he was dead.The elves,being overconfident, deemed that the charred,burnt body was Sangea's without even bothering to check the body for any traces of magic.This little act of overconfidence would result in a devastating calamity for the elves.
