Grace asked us questions
She didn't know about the cemetery, but she lived on a ship so they couldn't really burry anyone, so cremation was really the only thing they could do.
Ben seemed guilty, so He probably killed someone, and we know he did to become a man.
Ben didn't save to women, so by sacrificing himself for Todd he's still not giving up on him
Mayor Prentiss' kill a man to become a man and tell them the truth isn't a good system, but it did work, so it was kind of smart, but it wasn't good
I mentioned about how Viola and Todd were hiding in a church, and Aaron probably already knew about it because we know that he is highly religious, and since everyone started in Haven, he probably knew of the church, already, so that's how he found them so quickly.
Gabi shared a passage from Todd's mom's journal talking about power, and another one about hope.
Bringing up the theme again, where Todd is thinking the song.
Aaron said that hate is the key, and he talked about how the soldier must fight. Grace was saying about how this is leading too if Todd didn't hate Aaron, he wouldn't be ably to kill him. I think that maybe Aaraon could have been a good guy, he just wanted Todd to hate him so Todd would be able to kill him, and move forward as a man so the town doesn't fall.
I shared a line on page 456, "And i dropped the knife", Gabi said that this is different than the other situations because Todd had the upper hand and couldn't kill him, and now Todd doesn't, and he drops the knife. Also it's different because now he knows that if he kills Aaron, him /Aaron/ will win.
so what is the theme? It isn't just 'the song' - what is the author trying to tell us through this song?
