Advice

Greetings everyone -.-
Although I don't celebrate Halloween or Día de los Muertos, I wish you a fun one for those who do. 
Today we are going to do a pre-lesson to another signpost.
This time, as supposed to previously, I would like you to infer what exactly it might be, as I give you the following request:
Find a point where someone gives advice to a character or something that is repeated.
In Eragon, that is extremely easy, for he is a young man that always needs to be pushed in the right direction.
Read the synopsis, for instance:
"Fifteen-year-old Eragon believes that he is merely a poor farm boy- until his destiny as a Dragon Rider is revealed. Gifted with only an ancient sword, a loyal dragon, and sage advice from an old storyteller, Eragon is soon swept into a dangerous tapestry of magic, glory, and power. Now his choices could save - or destroy- the Empire"
I highlighted for you what I assumed was a pretty good overview of what I meant. Advice comes up in the books so many times, it's hard to describe all of them.
Well, to be continued,
xoxo

Memory Moment in Eragon

Hallo!
If you had read Eragon, you may recall that there are flashbacks that occur to describe the appearance of the egg.
Yes, this is another dragon book ;3
The book would have been cumbersome without it to be honest, because it would come along. It would trip over sticks and stones if you know what I mean.
The character hits a dilemma a couple of times in the text and doesn't seem to know how to get out of it, hitting a deadlock.
The flashback is an example of a memory moment because it occurs in the past as the characters memory. Also it completely changes the coarse of the whole story, because without this, Eragon would have no idea what to do with Sapphira.
nice and short :D
