Arya is first introduced as the courier charged with the task of delivering a Dragon's egg from the Varden, an organization fighting against the Empire, to the Elves. This is organized in order to allow people to touch the egg in the hopes of getting it to hatch for them. Arya is ambushed, however, by the Shade Durza on one of her journeys and she desperately tries to send the egg to Brom in Carvahall. The egg ends up in the Spine, a mountain range, where it is found by Eragon.
Eragon sees visions of Arya in his sleep and is eventually imprisoned with her in Gil'ead. With the help of his ally Murtagh, Eragon rescues Arya from the prison. However, she is in a deep sleep and Eragon and Murtagh have no idea what is wrong with her. After they cross the Hadarac desert, Eragon tries to enter Arya's mind. Telepathically she tells him her name and the route to the Varden. She also tells Eragon that she has been afflicted with a rare poison, the Skilna Bragh. While in her self-induced coma, the poison acts more slowly, but if they do not reach the Varden quickly she will die. When they reach the Varden, Arya's condition is serious. Fortunately, the antidote, Tunivor's Nectar, is administered in time, and Arya recovers. Once she has recovered, Arya plays a key part in helping the Varden and Eragon to defeat Durza. It is she who destroys the giant sapphire, Isidar Mithrim, which stood between her and Eragon. The resulting explosion distracted Durza, so that Eragon could kill him.
