Thousands of years ago before the events of this book, when the elves first came to the land of Alagaesia, they fought a long and hard with the dragons.  Then, Eragon I, became the first dragon riders and started the riders.  Then around a hundred years before the book, a rider named Galbatorix goes mad after his dragon are called by Urgals, and after demanding a new dragon, is banished from the ranks of the riders.  Later, after getting a new dragon named Shruikan, he gathers with him thirteen powerful riders called the Forsworn, and with them, he is able to destroy the riders, and establishes himself king over the Empire.  Eventually the Forsworn are all killed and Galbatorix is left alone, with only three dragon eggs remaining.  However, one of the eggs is able to be stolen and is brought to the elves, who pass it between the elves and humans, trying to find a rider for the dragon.

He is running away with Saphira when he is caught by Brom.  However, Brom goes with him.  He teaches Eragon about the invaders, who are insect humanoids called Ra'zac, and how in the land where humanity originally dwelt, the Ra'zac would hunt and eat them, and when humans came to Alagaezeia, the Ra'zac followed them.  He gives Eragon the sword Zaroc, which originally belonged to Morzan, who was one of the forsworn, teaches him about magic, and teaches him on how to make a saddle for Saphira.

The trio arrive at the village of Yazuac, whose inhabitants have been slaughtered by Urgals.  While looking around, Eragon is ambushed by a group of Urgals.  Trapped and without weapons, Eragon uses the true word for fire, ''brisingr'', which causes the Urgals to disintegrate in a burst of flame.  He later meets up with Brom and Saphira.  When Brom learns that Eragon learns magic, he decides to help him with it.

When walking alone in the woods as he found Ra'zac tracks which just ended, Eragon comes across a bottle with liquid.  Curious, he drops some of it on his hand which turns out to be acid.  He takes it to Brom who determines that it belonged to the Ra'zac, and that they must go to the seaport city Teirm to determine who bought it.

They arrive at Teirm where they go to Brom's old friend Jeod.  They make a plan together to go into the city's records to find out who bought the poison.  It turns out that Eragon can't read, so Brom teaches him how to.  While there, Eragon walks into a shop where he finds a were-cat named Solembum who talks to him.  Angela the herbalist comes in and gives Eragon a fortune using the ancient language and dragon bones.  The fortune is that he will love one of noble birth, live for a very long time (or forever), and will leave Alagaezia never to return.  As he leaves, Solembum gives him advice:
