Week 3 of reading Pendragon Book 10.

Since I have written my last entry, a lot has happened. I left off when Bobby and Patrick where first getting into this walled kingdom. They look around and realize that this giant place in the middle of New York City has such historic treasures as the statue of "David," the Mona Lisa, and the Eiffel Tower. The two realize that they had appeared back on third earth five years after the Ravinians had taken control of all the territories in Halla. They find out that the Taj Mahol seems to be the capital of this elitist civilization. When they enter they find it to be empty. They start to walk in the building and when they reach the center they find Saint Dane sitting on his throne at the top of a large staircase, with Nevva Winter right next to him. Bobby and Patrick hide behind a column so they will not be seen. Three henchmen walk in dragging five exiles from different territories. they are about to kill the exiles when Bobby and Patrick come out from hiding and start a fight with the henchmen. Saint Dane is very surprised to find out that Bobby now had the power he had, making them equal. Bobby and three of the exiles manage to escape. they steal a helicopter and fly away from the walled Ravinian home. once he is able to relax a little, Bobby realizes that the exile flying the helicopter is Mark Diamond. Mark is Bobby's nerdy best friend that had become an exile when the Ravinians gained power. But he was not nerdy anymore, he was confident and strong. I read more in the book this week, but i only decided to write in the blog about this much because it really shows how time has changed. Bobby feels like the whole time on Solara took at most an hour, but when he gets back he realizes that he was actually at Solara for five whole years! I think that this idea is an example of why I love the series so much. Just thinking that somebody was in a different universe for an hour and turns out that was gone for five years makes me extremely interested.
