I think that it is definately possible that Alden's plan all along was to get Sinclair to make his story and that he knew onnly this could save his town. Do we even know that the artifact he went after would have been able to save or help his town? It is possible Alden knew all along that Sinclair would have to create his own story and so he took him on the journey.Abby M. 1-2https://www.blogger.com/profile/14871056864034862267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912002613105678034.post-22135466344952747772011-02-17T16:58:07.539-05:002011-02-17T16:58:07.539-05:00trust me there is a lot more to the ending, but ab...trust me there is a lot more to the ending, but absolutely nothing would make sense without me giving a part of it away. As to the part with Alicia's sister and Alden I was a little lost too. The book is the first of an unfinished series so I believe more of that story is to come. I am just curious, what makes you believe it was a gift that she gave him?Morgan O 7-8https://www.blogger.com/profile/15511398036767890580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912002613105678034.post-14966783689482695322011-02-16T16:39:13.693-05:002011-02-16T16:39:13.693-05:001.

Alden probably figured that Sinclair would have enough trouble to get to the artifact that even if the artifact was not helpful, the story coudl still save everyone.<br />2. I think Alicia's sister gave him the gift. Although, I will admit I'm a little lost.<br /><br />PS- thanks for that ending spoiler.Josie D 7/8https://www.blogger.com/profile/16947208710345756813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912002613105678034.post-49794432016832481982011-02-13T20:07:35.545-05:002011-02-13T20:07:35.545-05:001) I think it is possible that Alden knew all alon...1) I think it is possible that Alden knew all along setting Sinclair off alone would create a story powerful enough to heal Sinclair's home, but I also think that Alden was hoping Sinclair would secure the artifact in case it would hold a story powerful to get rid of the silence once and for all. <br />2) The truth is I think both options could be possible here, but considering the state Alicia is in I am lead to believe Alden's story with Alicia's sister is how he became immune to the silence. Alicia sought out Alden to avenge her sister, which suggests something extreme happened which would make a story powerful enough to protect Alden.Morgan O 7-8https://www.blogger.com/profile/15511398036767890580noreply@blogger.com
