@cooldes: I see the site Lagged for you as well, might want to delete those extra post.
and with that, now you can help me by explaining exactly what letta is, why the dragonborn wouldn't be able to speak and maybe listing a feat of two
Letta is the ancient word for "Stop" in Eragons Universe, 'Magic' Is shaped by saying the words and pouring energy into them. To give an example, i don't have the quote because my friend has my book but to give a shaky one
"i quickly said the magic words and rocketed into the sky after Thorn(a Dragon) When my energy was beginning to wain, Glaedr began to feed me his. I saw Arya Rocket past me inn a similar pursuit, the Dauthdaurt(wary of the spelling here) glowing in her hands, but as she got close, Thorns tail whipped across her. knocking her out of the sky.
'ARYA' i shouted, And redoubled my efforts in order to catch her.
'she needs to be healed, we can save nausuada another day' said glaedr in my head.
with one last look at Thorns retreating figure, i cut the flow of magic and dropped to the ground, when i neared the bottom i spoke the words letta to halt my decent and then slow floated down."
now. again. don't have the book but that's pretty much how it went. also for feats of lifting. Stern Raisa is near the First spell Eragon Learned and with his newer powers He is stronger. What it does however. is the same. he can just lift more.
"look at the pebble in your palm, see more than it, envision it floating above your palm"
i did as he asked and once the image was in my head, i nodded
"good now repeat after me, stern raisa"
"stern raisa? whats that mean?"
"it doesn't matter just say it and focus on the image of the pebble floating"
i shrugged but followed his instructions nonetheless, once the image was solidly in my mind, i spoke the words "stern raisa" they came out as a whisper but before my eyes i saw the pebble jiggle and proceed to float above my hand, i stare at it in marvel for a second before it dropped to the ground
"that was amazing!" i said gasping for air, i was surprised at the effort that took.
noticing my slight fatigue Brom said "it will get easier with time, soon you can be lifting larger things such as Rocks and boulders with ease"
Later in the first book He speaks his first flame spell, Brisingr, And instantly lights the Tip of his Arrow aflame.
as for how i can keep you silent, this is end of series Eragon, so hes basically Galbatorix^2 and in the chamber room. Galbatorix did this.
"Still keeping hold of the Dauthdaert, Elva stepped forward and began to speak. However,
no sound came from her mouth, and she looked at Eragon with an expression of alarm.
Eragon tried to touch her mind with his own, but he could feel nothing of her thoughts; it
was as if she were no longer in the room with them.
Galbatorix laughed, then returned his sword to his lap and leaned back in his throne. “Did
you truly believe that I was ignorant of your ability, child? Did you really think you could render
me helpless with such a petty, transparent trick? Oh, I have no doubt your words could harm
me, but only if I can hear them.” His bloodless lips curved in a cruel, humorless smile. “Such
folly. This is the extent of your plan? A girl who cannot speak unless I grant her leave, a spear
more suited for hanging on a wall than carrying into battle, and a collection of Eldunarí half
out of their minds with age? Tut-tut. I had thought better of you, Arya. And you, Glaedr, but
then I suppose your emotions have clouded your reason since I used Murtagh to slay
Oromis.” -Credit to @thedarklordpandamonium For this.
Also he can now do Magic With his thoughts, as opposed to his words like many believe.
as for holding people down:
"As the last phrase left the king’s lips, a force gripped Eragon, stopping him in mid-stride. The jolt shook a yelp of surprise from him. He tried to move, but his body might as well have been encased in stone. All he could do was breathe, look, and as he had already discovered, speak. He did not understand; his wards should have protected him from the king’s magic. That they did not left him feeling as if he were teetering on the edge of a vast abyss. Next to him, Saphira, Arya, and Elva appeared likewise immobilized."
Again, the King, but Magic feats are applicable in that universe. as Eragon knows what he knew and Probably more.
