talons saphira
With her jaws and talons, Saphira tore through an Urgal.
eye blow saws
From the corner of his eye, Eragon saw Orik hewing Urgal necks with mighty blows of his ax.

If anything happens, I'm going to pin you to my back and never let you off." I love you too." - Saphira and Eragon
hurt hands half
Half way down, he encountered Saphira, who had jammed her head and neck as far up the stair as she could, gouging the wood in her frenzy. Little one. She flicked out her tongue and caught him on the hand with its rough tip. He smiled. Then she arched her neck and tried to pull back, but to no avail. What's wrong? I'm stuck. You're... He could not help it;he laughed even though it hurt. The situation was too absurd.

Life is both pain and pleasure. If this is the price you must pay for the hours you enjoy, is it too much?

heart littles my-heart
Shall we dance,friend of my heart?" We shall, little one.
land poverty custodians
But ask yourself this Eragon: If gods exist, have they been good custodians of alagaesia? Death, sickness, poverty, tyranny and countless other miseries stalk the land. If this is the handiwork of divine beings, then they are to be rebelled against and overthrown, not given obeisance, obedience, and reverance.
