Eragon 69-74

Eragon makes comment about the traders as he leaves Brom, but the man grabs his wrist and rips of the glove.This hand was the hand that bore a silvery mark of the dragon that he received upon touching Saphira. As he goes to check on Saphira he finds her in a state of panic going on about murders. When he climbs on her back to sooth her she leaps into the sky and flies away on her back. As this is the first time she has flown with him he throws up and his legs are rubbed raw from her hard scales. They curl up for the night but Eragon can't help but feel guilty for leaving Garrow when the strangers are coming, but he soon falls asleep.
