Did You know about Oromis's identity, even before Eldest??
I thought it was very much hinted. I always knew that the Mourning Sage was an elf Dragon Rider, even before the Eldest plot twist, even before Eldest ever came out.
The Mourning Sage lived in Ellesmera, what else could he be, if not an elf?? It also made a lot of sense that he would be a Dragon Rider, because Brom hinted that there were surviving dragon riders, and, who better to teach Eragon than a surviving Dragon Rider?? Especially, since Oromis was hiding in the elf forest, a good hiding spot. Who else noticed this? I was almost certain that he was an elf, and very suspicious that he was a Dragon Rider, even before reading Eldest. Who else was?

Re: Did You know about Oromis's identity, even before Eldest
When exactly did Brom hint that there were surviving Dragon Riders? I don't remember that at all. It doesn't seem like the kind of thing he would tell Eragon (In my opinion) especially since he didn't tell Eragon that he himself was a Dragon Rider until he was on his death bed.

He mentioned that there were may have been surviving dragons. I always knew that the Mourning Sage was an elf, though.

Re: Did You know about Oromis's identity, even before Eldest
I knew he was an elf because Osthato Chetowa just seemed like a very elvish title. Did not see Glaedr in the picture at all. XD It was a very pleasant surprise though.

Re: Did You know about Oromis's identity, even before Eldest
now are we talking about the mourning sage or Oromis. Because we knew the mourning sage existed but we did not know about Oromis.

Oromis was The Mourning Sage. Can't really talk about one without the other.

Sorry I don't think I was clear We didn't know that the mourning sage was a dragon rider.

Re: Did You know about Oromis's identity, even before Eldest
The discussion is to talk about if individual people knew that The Mourning Sage was Oromis or if people knew who he was in any other way, not if the general public or everyone as a whole knew it was him.

Re: Did You know about Oromis's identity, even before Eldest
I think I get what you mean.
No, I wasn't expecting the Mourning Sage (Oromis) to be a Rider. I wasn't surprised he was an elf, but I didn't think CP would have an ancient Rider and dragon to be floating around.
What were you expecting after you first read about the Mourning Sage, before you ever picked up Eldest? (Let's just say Oromis, since we've known since the second book that he was the MS.)

All I really thought was that he was someone powerful but that is all.
