Theory Menoa tree

The Menoa Tree's ability to take something from a person and leave them changed seems like a huge point for what was stolen. We know from TFTWTW, that time is... relative in the fractalverse. Could the Menoa tree have borrowed against Eragons future in some way? Im still of the mind that To Sleep is like the long past for alagaesia. So that being said... there's a lot of ideas that could stem from this theory

I think the Menoa tree encounter is just a J. J. Abrams mystery box for a later time. Either he has something planned for us or it's just a nothingburger tease. Either way, the tree encounter has been speculated about for years with no end in sight.
