I continue to believe the Menoa Tree has more significance than what is coming across in the book. No one has been able to satisfactorily explain the phrases in boldface!

With an unexpected suddeness, he encountered an immense entity, a sentinent being of such a colossal nature, he could not grasp the limits of its psyche. Even Oromis's vast intellect, which Eragon had been in contact with in Farthen Dur, was dwarfed in comparison to this presence. The very air seem to thrum with the energy and strength that emanated from...the tree?

Yes, you did and big is not the appropriate word; it’s much too insipid and bland. The perfect ones would be any other one like behemothic, humongous, super colossal, cyclopean, gargantuan, enormous, or monumental. :P

Is that even a word? OFF TOPIC, the point is, CP would not have gone through painfully describing the Menoa tree with so much detail for nothing. There must be more to it than what we are being led to believe.
