I keep finding myself thinking of all of the mothers' losses from each year's Day of Sacrifice, not to mention Luna's mother who is still suffering, locked away in the tower of the Protectorate. Hoping that the mothers are one day reunited with their grown children in the Free Cities and that Luna's mother survives long enough to see her return. #Newbery2017
DrSpalding Agreed! Such a sad way to keep the citizens of the Protectorate compliant! I hope Luna sees her mom again too! Not knowing much about her, but knowing she has the crescent mark as well, I am thinking she has similar magical abilities. That being said, why doesn't she use them to find her! 8y
KarriW I wonder why more of the mothers didn't end up in the tower because of madness from grief. I like the idea that they may be reunited with children someday. 8y
sherronkr The forest rakes away, but we give them away as a society... 8y
