"being a rider means overcoming your fears, and facing them. Selena will overcome this and accept arya as her new master as you will aSaphira" eragon said firmly but calmly.Miriel sighed. 'I guess you have not. Well then, I'll tell you. Selena was always very shy, and her parents and brother always had a hard time getting her to meet new people. When she was six years old, she met some people, some humans, who were very nice to her and who she liked and trusted, even though she had known them for only a few days. Then she disappeared. As did the humans. They kidnapped her, and beat and abused her for almost the entire time they had her, which was about two months. When her parents found her, she was terrified of just about everyone. She wouldn't leave the house. Finally, two and a half years later, her brother convinced her to go with him when my egg was being presented to all the twenty year old elves. The rest you know. However, there is one thing. Arya looks and sounds almost exactly like the woman, and it was the woman who was cruelest to her."
"selena come out please! eragon told me to come find you!" arya called out again.Selena heard Arya calling for her in the distance. She backed toward the trunk, even though she knew that no one could see her, shaking with fear.
