after the battle of the burning plains and before Eragon got back, Arya tried to contact Eragon, and when she couldn't, she and Nasuada thought he was dead.

Your right, she was emotinless, just like nothing had happend, so was she really worried, or did she just not care? Was it something in the middle?

she was worried, to her view too much, and so she tried to mask it, and in doing so held back on which feelings a friend in her position would normally exhibit.

OMG I had a breakthrough! I was using a method that I learned in English to understand what a line in a poem means: Look up all of the words that can have multiple meaning that fit in the sentence. I first thought about what they could mean and then it hit me: SHE COULD HAVE MEANT “THE CANDLE STILL BURNS ME”!!! Because she is murmuring to herself, she could have meant herself as a direct object! But I looked up Still and Burns anyway to find any other meanings. Here are the ones that can fit:

Still
–adjective
1. remaining in place or at rest; motionless; stationary
2. free from sound or noise, as a place or persons; silent
3. subdued or low in sound; hushed
4. free from turbulence or commotion; peaceful; tranquil; calm
–adverb
1. at this or that time; as previously
2. up to this or that time; as yet
3. in the future as in the past
4. even then; yet; nevertheless
5. without sound or movement; quietly
6. at or to a greater distance or degree.
7. Archaic. steadily; constantly; always.
–conjunction
1. and yet; but yet; nevertheless

Burn

–verb (used without object)
1. (of a fireplace, furnace, etc.) to contain a fire
2. to feel heat or a physiologically similar sensation; feel pain from or as if from a fire
3. to give off light or to glow brightly
4. to give off heat or be hot
5. to produce pain or a stinging sensation similar to that of fire; cause to smart
6. to feel strong emotion or passion
7. to be engraved by or as if by burning
–verb (used with object)
1. to cause to feel the sensation of heat.
2. to injure, endanger, or damage with or as if with fire
3. to produce with or as if with fire
4. to cause sharp pain or a stinging sensation
5. to consume rapidly, esp. to squander

Mix and match! Practically all combinations work if you think about it. Even burn as containing a fire works (her heart contains a fire, i.e. love) The candle can mean her love, her heart, Eragon (maybe, haven’t tried it with the new meanings), and probably a bunch of stuff. If you are using an adjective meaning of still, then it helps to think of the sentence as this: “The candle, still, burns (me),” still modifying candle.

there is plenty of evidence to support it and there is no point in arguing that there isn't.
