"Did Eragon just teleport?" muttered Cassius with fear as he flew away, trying to flee toward the sky. The wind gathered below him, carrying him toward the clouds.
However, Eragon appeared above him again, looking like a band of black lightning who clawed at him again. Cassius knew that he would be a dead man if the claw grabbed him again.
The Sin of Pride had never known such fear before because Eragon had been in seclusion for thousands of years. His sin ate him away, allowing him to befriend no man or have no desire other than destruction. In the end, his sin robbed him of everything.
