The plot of Eragon contains the following details:

A boy named Eragon is the protagonist of the story. He discovers a mysterious stone, but does not understand what this is or what it can be used for. Later in the story, he discovers that the stone is actually an egg, and a dragon comes out of it. He names the dragon Saphira.
