Fire World (conflict and resolution)

Author's Note: To understand this piece, you must read the rest of the series before this book.



The book, Fire World, takes place on a peaceful world called Co:pern:ica where you can make or imagineer as they call it, anything and everything you want or need. But all is not right on Co:pern:ica, for there are many problems, that lead up to the primary conflict, which is that an evil force called the Ix are the trying to destroy Co:pern:ica, and the firebirds need to call upon the dragons for help, but they need to do it before the Ix manage to destroy everything.

The problems that lead up to the primary conflict are very important as well. Like the portal that opens in David’s sleep, as something is trying to get to him, and when his scientist dad recreates the portal, he releases the Ix and causes a 10 year time leap in the blink of an eye. Also, there is that David and his friend Rosanna need to find a way to get to the upper floors of the librarium so they can get the help from the dragons that they need to destroy the Ix.

If the Ix destroy Co:pern:ica, they could cause a ripple in the universe, that would prevent Earth, Co:pern:ica, and Ki:mera from being made and linked cosmically which would destroy the universe.

David does manage to destroy the cluster of Ix (a cluster of Ix is like a pack of wolves), specifically because he is ec:centric.

So, as you can imagine, in the book the Ix are bad beings, and need to be destroyed before they can destroy Co:pern:ica and the rest of the universe.

Eragon


Eragon is the first book of the Inheritance series by Christopher Paoloni. The book tells the story of a young farm boy named Eragon, who finds a mysterious stone in the mountains. A dragon he later names Saphira hatches from the stone, which was, in actuality, an egg. When the evil King Galbatorix finds out about Eragon and his dragon, he sends his servants, the Ra'zac, after them in an effort to capture them. Eragon and Saphira are forced to flee from their hometown, and decide to search for the Varden, a group of rebels who want to see the downfall of Galbatorix.
