what if the dwarves and elves and urgals and aren and ormises sword all combined magic and eragon used that.like when he fought murtag and the elves helped.mabie he would have a fighting chance then.i dont know for sure.what do u think?

It is possible and I believe it has been suggested. The problem is distance they have to be close to Eragon otherwise he will get a much smaller boost of energy (the elves healing saphira's wing is an example) and Eragon has to be close to Galby and they all have to be shielded from magic.

Ya I agree and I think that it still would not equal the power of galbys eldunari because Galby has hundreads of eldunari from some of the oldest dragons in history and eragon has a sword wich equals about 50 eldunari eragon and saphira equal 1 or 2 and the elves equal like 2 or 3 so ya eragon is out numbered in power BIG-TIME.

He was talking about taking energy from all the dwarven, human and elven spellcasters not just the 12 elves sent to guard him and also possibly taking the energy the bodies of allied soldiers.

oh thanks I only read it once so i didnt get the full idea but wouldnt it kill the other people he took the energy from besides the dead ones?

Depends on how much energy he took. He might get another magician who could concentrate on it and so not kill the soldiers. He would just take a smaller amount of energy from the soldiers and then feed it to Eragon.

ya but I dont think that would be enough energy if he is taking small amount from every one because like 20 people equals like 1 eldunari and the varden only have about 500-1000 and Galby has about 500 eldunari.

Eragon couldn't defeat galby by doing that without killing everybody. There just wouldn't be enough energy.

The varden by this point has over 10,000 probably over 20,000 men combined with the dwarves and elven armies there is enough energy to overwhelm Galby and his eldunari, the problems are there's no way of using said energy effectively against Galby and if there was Galby could just use the same method with his troops.

and galby probably has more troops plus the eldunaries.

Did you even read the entirety of my post. You posted the same problem that I pointed out at the bottom of my last post. However I didn't post just to have a rant. The problem with the theory isn't not that there isn't enough people the problem is the fact that Eragon can't actually use all the energy in all those warriors very effectivly most will be too far away from him and while Eragon's mind is open Galby can attack it.

I know that. Even if Eragon could take the energy from soldiers he would probably kill all of them. Galby has more soldiers plus the eldunari

The varden have more available energy in soldiers.

1. They have about a 1/5 the number of humans.
2. They have all of the dwarves.
3. They elves who are worth over ten humans each and some of them are worth a lot more.

But Galby has hundreds of eldunari. That would make up for all the soldiers he doesn't have.

Either way it's irrelevant because neither of them can use the energy is soldiers effectivly.

Eragon will probably just stab Galby through the heart. The thing I'm afraid of is if Eragon doesn't actually kill Galby himself, and he only gets to kill him because I don't know maybe Murtagh will destract Galby and get himself killed to let Eragon kill Galby. I really hope that kind of thing doesn't happen. In the last Percy Jackson and the Olympians book Luke is the real hero, and in ht elast Harry Potter book Harry would not have been able to kill Voldemort if it wasn't for the Elder Wand and his mothers sacrifice.

In a straight battle Galbatorix would beat eragon no problem. but in book 3 when oromis says that when inside thier eldunari a dragon cannot break thier own eldunari exept by those rare bits on magic but it does say that they *can* be destroyed by normal beings.
so what if a group of elves led by arya or izlanzadi break into the place where galby keeps his eldunari and break them with magic?
