Why didn't Arya Free herself?

dragonriderofalagaesia Peasant Joined: December 7th, 2005, 7:37 pm Posts: 68	Why didn't Arya Free herself? If its possible to use magic without the ancient language and even when drugged, why didn't Arya free herself when she was in prison? Is it because she isn't that good at magic or could there be another reason.

If arya able to do magic, she didn't need to conduct it silently, because she hadn't lost her voice. And to remember also, she's already weak from the tortures, there no strength left to do magic (since magic consumes power). She was even at a unconcious state in order to recover her health. No way she can do magic. _________________ http://www.xpango.com?ref=92003465 ﾟ･♥::･｡♪(◕ฺ‿◕ฺ✿ฺ)☆ﾟ･. ♫

Didn't she say she was given a poison and its antidote each day, so even is she had a chance to escape, she would have been to weak, or she knew she would die within a couple days of escaping, while Durza would have kept her alive until she spoke Ellesmera's location. _________________ "He touched his fingers to his lips and said, 'Arya Svit-kona,' using the honorific he had just learned for a woman of great wisdom." pg. 163 of Eldest Did anyone miss me?

He said it was also extreamly dangerous and difficult to control it because your thoughts can change in an instant causing it to do something not so good. Also her mind was so hazzy that she couldn't think much anyways. And like you have said she was poisened and too weak to really get away on her own. _________________ Forum Rules :: Ranking System :: The Team :: Forum FAQ Last edited by HitNRunner on April 5th, 2006, 8:36 pm, edited 1 time in total.

Eragon, Pp 462 reads as follows: "Then know this; at the moment you first beheld it, I was captured by Durza." Her voice filled with bitterness and grief. "It was he who led the Urgals that ambushed and slew my companions, Faolin and Glenwing. Somehow he knew where to wait for us—we had no warning. I was drugged and transported to Gil'ead. There Durza was charged by Galbatorix to learn where I had sent the egg and all I knew of Ellesméra." She stared ahead icily, jaw clenched. "He tried for months without success. His methods were...harsh. When tortured failed, he ordered his soldiers to use me as they would. Fortunately, I still had the strength to nudge their minds and make them incapable. At last Galbatorix ordered that I was to be brought to Urû'baen. Dread filled me when I learned this, as I was weary in both mind and body and had no strength to resist him. If it not for you, I would have stood before Galbatorix in a week's time." Wow, my hands hurt. Anyway there it is. _________________ ~.~.~.~.~.~
