when saphira said that Arya's father, Evander, was killed by either a Forsworn or Galbatorix and that they were circles within circles, i pondered it for a while...
it occured to me that if Evander was killed by a Forsworn, then Brom, an elf, or another Rider killed him, and then they were killed by the Ra'zac or another Forsworn, etc., then it really is a bunch of circles within circles.
it also occured to me that if Evander was killed by Galbatorix himself, and Eragon killed him, then some other assassin killed Eragon, then it would, again, be circles within circles.
this is just an idea
