You ever just think about Brom and realize... he had to live near his son but must keep his true identity a secret in case it puts him in danger... watch every day as his son wishes for the parents he never knew when Brom is RIGHT THERE but he can’t reveal himself... he just can’t... and then one day his son has that mark on his hand and Brom must be so worried because his son will be hunted by the most dangerous person in the land... but he is also so proud because his son is about to continue on an old and respected legacy Brom himself was once part of... and of all the things that could have happened he gets to spend day after day traveling with his son, teaching him everything he knows in order for his survival, getting to know him as he never got to before... watching him grow and become stronger until one day, Brom realizes that his son is the new future and he is just an old relic of the past... and then just when it seems they might get the safety the Razac find them and Brom gives his son the final gift he can: his life. And he can never watch his son do all the amazing things we get to see him do but he knows, he knows that he has helped his son start the path in his life that will lead him the change the world. And for Brom, the one who gave up everything for duty, that must be more than enough.

Eragon:

It can't be a coincidence that feminism is progressing well in third-world countries and every piece of desi media, especially soap operas with the target audience of housewives, decide to glamorize the role of the "Angel of the House" or "Kudumba Kuthuvizhaku" (light of the house) which is the stereotype of the woman unconditionally putting the needs of her in laws, husband, children and everyone before hers.

They also repeatedly villainize the woman who dresses liberally, and doesn't have the personality of a doormat.

Even worse is the propaganda of the Knight in Shining armor, who comes to the woman's rescue and in whom she should place unconditional trust in. The women around her are jealous, petty, scheming bitches and hence, unworthy of her companionship

It's almost as if this is done intentionally to thwart the class consciousness desi women are slowly forming and reiterate the harmful ideas we've been forced to play for centuries:

You exist to serve your family. You are not valid if you are your own person, only a mother, wife, daughter, daughter-in-law

If you deviate from the conservative style of clothing/thinking, you're immoral. If you are assertive, selfish, ambitious, and have a backbone, you're the BITCH

Other women exist only to tear you down, they are always plotting your downfall, so put all your faith in the man. He's your hero and protector after all

It's seemingly just drama on the outside, but seems to be a very sinister patriarchal response to feminism on the inside?
