According to the Eldunarí from Vroengard, there was another sea to the east, if they traveled far enough, but only empty lands between Alagaësia and the Eastern Sea.

According to Eragon, they needed "physical barriers, cliffs, moats, and walls, too high for man, elf, dwarf, or Urgal to scale…the safety only distance can provide". In the end, he and his dragon Saphira decided to leave Alagaësia for the East (It is mentioned earlier in Inheritance that Eragon had read of other lands outside of Alagaësia) with the precious objects. He searched the land for a suitable home, but most locations were too close to the homes of the other races in Alagaësia. Although Galbatorix destroyed much of this knowledge, some information remained in Du Weldenvarden with the elves, and it is this information that reached Eragon during the Rider War.Īfter the end of the Rider War, Eragon Shadeslayer was unable to find a suitable home for the dragon eggs and Eldunarí he found on Vroengard, as well as for the Eldunarí previously enslaved by Galbatorix. Some of their discoveries were already familiar to the elves – who have preserved maps and lore describing the continent from which they immigrated across the ocean – but the rest was as-yet uncharted territory".

According to Heslant the Monk in Domia Abr Wyrda, the Riders had "programs of exploration, flying to the farthest reaches of land and water. The Eastern Reaches were the lands to the east of Alagaësia, where Eragon went at the end of Inheritance.ĭuring the Pre-Dragon War Era, the Riders explored many lands outside of Alagaësia.
