    -post begins-

    We weren’t able to have a discussion today, as all the members had to miss class for music. While I was reading our book, however, I was able to come up with more questions.

    Question 1) How do you think Sophie’s Awakening will affect her relationship with Josh?

    One page 239, Josh starts to think he and Sophie are “different in ways he could not even begin to comprehend.” I think that he and Sophie being “closed off” to the magical world strengthened the bond between them as the only ones that couldn’t fully perceive magic in the group. Now I feel like Josh may feel distanced from Sophie, while she may feel closer to Flamel and Scatty. Furthermore, it is not clear when Josh will be able to be Awakened, so he may feel like he was ignored, which would further distance him from Sophie.

     

    Question 2) Do you think that Hekate having her home destroyed may cause her to abandon Flamel and the rest of the group?

    We are shown throughout this portion of the book that Hekate is very fond of the World Tree, and that it is considered very sacred. When she realizes that it is being burnt, she shoves Josh away and runs out of the room. We are also shown that Hekate was hesitant about helping Flamel and Awakening Sophie and Josh. I think that after they fight the invaders, Hekate will no longer help the group because of the damage done to the World Tree. This would leave the group in a lurch, because without Hekate’s help, Josh cannot be Awakened and the group will have to find somewhere else to go.
