To Arya

My Beloved Arya,

As I sit beneath the ancient trees of Du Weldenvarden, a flood of emotions fills my heart, and my thoughts inevitably turn to you. With trembling hands and a soul aflame, I pen this letter, hoping to convey the depth of my love for you, though mere words can never truly capture its essence.

From the moment our paths intertwined, Arya, you became the guiding star in my life, illuminating my darkest days and filling my world with boundless joy. Your grace, strength, and unwavering determination inspire me to be a better man, a better Dragon Rider. You are the embodiment of everything I hold dear, and I am eternally grateful for your presence in my life.

With every glance shared, every touch exchanged, and every word spoken between us, my affection for you grows stronger, like the eternal fire within Saphira’s heart. Your courage in the face of adversity, wisdom in times of uncertainty, and gentle touch that heals both body and soul have enchanted me completely. You are the melody that stirs my soul and the rhythm that quickens my heartbeat.

In the midst of our shared battles and arduous quests, I have come to realize that our connection runs deeper than friendship, Arya. It is a profound bond that transcends time and distance. The thought of a future without you by my side is a world shrouded in shadows, devoid of the light and love that only you can bring. I long for the day when I can call you mine when our destinies intertwine beyond the perils that befall us.

I promise to cherish you, Arya, to support you in all you strive to achieve, and to honour the depth of our connection. Through every trial and tribulation, I will be there, holding your hand, drawing strength from your unwavering spirit. Together, we will conquer the challenges that lie ahead, for our love is a force that defies all odds, unyielding and relentless.

My heart beats solely for you, Arya, and it will continue to do so for all the days that lie before us. Let our love be the binding thread that weaves together our futures, like the ancient tapestries of elven lore. May the stars bear witness to the intensity of my devotion, and may our love shine as brightly as the morning sun over the vast expanse of Alagaësia.

Forever and always, I am yours,

Eragon
