On the fist few chapters, Will gets to know Horace a warrior apprentice. They travel to Celtica a neighbor country to Auralen (Will's country). When they get there, they are shocked since all towns are empty. Will and his friends search for people nonstop but come out empty handed...
"After sixteen years of relative peace, people are growing complacent". (13)
I think this quote is really important because it reflects on how society is at the moment. People have had peace for so long that if war comes to them, they wouldn't know what to do and fall in chaos. This also is important because we can see that even when we think we are safe, we should be cautious.
Another interesting quote is: "So how was it that you became a Ranger?" (31)
Will was a ranger because he was chosen to be one, although he wanted o be a knight. I think that getting to choose what you want to do is very important since it helps you to be happier. In Will's case luckily, he ended up liking being a ranger and did not have any kind of 2nd thoughts.
This book is getting better the more I read, and I think that it has a really interesting story and suspense. I think that next Will and his friends will find out the truth behind all the people missing in Celtica.
