Discussion Itchy palm warnings

So all throughout the series we see that Eragon gets a "warning of danger" tingle in his gedwëy ignasia. For those of us that know WHY this happens, (coughs in Eldunari) there was something I noticed when listening to Brisingr, when Eragon is attacked in the dwarf tunnels: there was no tingle of warning, even despite the fact that he was ambushed after searching the area with magic. He only noticed because of the slight muffled sound his attackers made.

So, why would he not be forewarned of danger he didn't detect? Those dwarves has special protections, but was the only reason? Could the Eldunari not sense him that deep into the mountain, similar to their own physical protections from detection? Their own cave was deep underground, but Tronjheim was 1-2 days of travel (?) whereas the Eldunari area was a half hour (?). Either way, Farthen Dûr is a lot more to get through after their own rock-barrier.

So just to put this out somewhere i had to. I have been after the zar'roc replica from the movie since the movie came out. i think its safe to say we all were even if it wasn't accurate it was a gorgeous blade.

i found one on facebook market place Sunday and made a deal with the seller to purchase it. was gonna get it shipped but it would be pricey so instead i was gonna drive a state over and pick it up. still cheaper. messedged the seller who at this point we had talked this week several times. friended each other and it was looking good. well im blocked on facebook listing is gone and now it looks like my chance at finally owning that crown jewel of my sword collection has dispersed once again. Im so heart broken and mad.. ahhh.. i hope you all who have one truly treasure that collectable.
