Note 8

-run in with slavers, but easily scared off with magic
-they make it to what seems to be the varden (according to the elf's instructions) and yells the words to grant them entrance, but it does not work, after several minutes of trying, the Urgals catch up to them and attack
-Saphira tries to fight them off, and has moderate success but there are too many
-suddenly, Eragon reazlies that they are on the wrong side of the mountain and run through the waterfall to get to the otherside, but falls in to an extremely fast current
-fished out by a dwarf, which leads the others to kill the urgals, and beats them all back.
-meanwhile Saphira flies in as well, and the mountain is shut
-Orik, the dwarf who saved Eragon trusts them, but one of the dwarves doesn't, and is angered at Orik's disobeying his orders, which would have probably gotten Eragon, Saphira and Murtagh killed, along with the elf.
-After sending in the elf for emergency care, the dwarf probes Eragon's mind to see if he is really a Dragon Rider on their side or not.
-Minutes past, and Saphira with Eragon blocks out some memories that might have been misleading, and they past the probation
-the dwarf is however, still unsatisfied, and wants to probe Murtagh as well, but Orik stops him
-this angers him, and orders them all to be thrown in to a room before they meet Ajihad, the leader of the Varden.
-In the room, Murtagh finally tells Eragon why he had not wanted to come to the Varden, because he is Morzan's son, and Morzan was one of the generals that betrayed the old Dragon Riders and along with others killed all the other Dragon Riders.
-He says that he ran away from home, as he was constantly abused, and has marks to show for it. As well, Zar'roc, the sword that Brom gave Eragon, was Morzan's sword, and Brom had taken it when he killed Morzan.
-Secrets revealed, the next day comes and they set off to meet Ajihad.
