Quotations
“These are the two natures of man (dog, god), never forget them because one day you will be king and kings grow to be great and tall–as great and tall ad dragons in their ninth moltings”. Said Sasha to peter preparing him for his years as king.
“Lives have depended on less, at times. All I ask is that in everything you do, you try to remember the civilized side of your nature. The god side, the God side…”. This shows the significance that Sasha gave to bringing her child “mannerly correct”.
“I want it to be the finest dollhouse a young lady ever had”. Said Rolland to the greatest craftsman in Delain. This will later be used by peter in his escape.
“In Sash’s dollhouse were real Kashamin rugs, real velvet curtains, real China plates; the cold cabinet really kept things cold…”. This statement shows the efficiency of the miniature things in Sash’s dollhouse.
“But of all of the toys in the castle, the one he loved the best was his mother’s dollhouse”. This shows Peter’s feelings towards the dollhouse. In the end they proved to be very helpful.
“What, you might say, was a decision over whether or not to allow a little boy to play with a dollhouse next to those other things?. Maybe nothing, maybe much, I will let you make up your mind on that”.
“…, And over the years he had come more and more to relay on Flagg”. Shows that Rolland had started losing his confidence.
“Your will is Delain’s will, Sire” said Flagg hiding his building anger towards Rolland. An anger which will lead to the murder of Rolland.
-“What will you pay for such a miracle?”.
-“Anything! Lord Flagg, anything!”.
-”I ask for one favor, will you give it?”
-”Gladly!”
-”I don’t know what it is yet, but when the time comes I shall”. Flagg indeed used this favor he asked the midwife. He asked her to kill Sasha in exchange for her son’s health (he had epilepsy).
“By the time peter was seven he knew he did not like the boy”. Since that time Flagg sensed peter will someday spell bad news for him.
-“I am sorry my prince” Ben cried. His face had gone pale…”
-”don’t be a fool it was my fault not yours…”. This shows how down to earth peter was. Not like a snotty little boy who sees him self above all.
“You heard me. I said put that hammer down”. This is the first time peter gets his first taste of authority.
-”I made you sth. Dad “.
-”Did you now Tommy. Why that was kind wasn’t it ?”
-”very kind Sire”. Said Flagg…
As peter struggles to speak with his father, Flagg sees an opening to where he will start to get the child’s attention. He invests to the future, which was sth. he was good at
“ I think it’s the stupidest thing I have ever heard!. All the wine belongs to father all the wine in the kingdom and he can have as much of it as he wants…”. said Thomas as his jealousy deepened and the ridge between him and his brother expanded.
“He had an instinct for mischief in his head, just as some people have a way with numbers or clear sense of direction”. The first time Thomas was shown the eye of the dragon. The pip hole he will later see throw the murder of his father.
“Tommy you look down in the dumps”. Said Flagg as he bonded with Thomas but still left the fear element deep in him.
“Bite me!… bite me are you afraid? Come down out of that wall, Cracker! .
jump! Here is my chest see? … come on jump! Ill do you with my bare hands!
I’ll rip your stinking guts out!” Rolland, drunk as hell, has delusions about the animals he killed and their heads are on the wall that is spied on by Thomas who looks throw the eyes of the dragon.
“Why do you stare at me? What do you hope to see?”. said Rolland as he looks at Niner the dragon Thomas is looking throw his eyes. Thomas is sure that Rolland is looking at him. This will lead to many complications in Thomas’s life, even as an adult.
-“What’s this? Wine? “
-”your son is barley more than a boy, but his deference towards his father and his honor towards his king have shamed me, a grown man I brought you a glass of wine, my king, to show you that I, too, love you ”.
-Don’t drink it, father!.
As Flagg pass the poisoned goblet with the wine Thomas feels that sth. isn’t right here.
He wants to warn his father but he can’t.
“… you stick with your young man until he’s an old man, and if you take care of him proper, hell take care of you proper”. Dennis` father gives his son the advice that was passed to him by his father and his father’s father et.
“Now tell me what’s in this bucket and be quick about it…”. As Dennis confides to his father, his father starts to understand the weight of the subject, and decides they should go to Peyna the prime judge.
“It was a thing he should have avoided at all coast under Peyna’s cold and assessing eyes: he burst into tears”. Peter broke in front of Peyna. Not because he was guilt, however, he was coping his father’s death, he led search parties for the murderers of his father and he hardly slept.
“I want you to put aside the crown”. Peyna said to Peter in order to trial him. And since kings aren’t supposed to be tried he asked him to delay the coronation
“Could this boy really command Peyna from his cell here at the top of the Needle? Or was this only a desperate bluff”. Thought Beson, the head of the guards at the Needle. When Peter sent a note to Peyna demanding the dollhouse and the crest -removed napkins.
“Peyna I have decided to live”. Peter starts his note to Peyna, actually after he had come up with his ingenious escape plan.
“He wove the first batch a week after he received the dollhouse, working carefully with the loom”. This was the start of a “job” that will take him 7 years to finish.
“…The young king (Thomas) was his master. He must follow”
“follow you paltry boy! Follow and be quick! This is the moment! Follow!”.
“Thomas was not just shrieking–he was crying out words”.
“Don’t drink the wine…”
Dennis followed Thomas throw the corridor leading to the eye of the dragon (Thomas of course sleep walking). And saw that Thomas saw the horrid poisoning of his father by Flagg.
“Show me”. he murmured. “This is my command”. Flagg throw his magic crystal saw peter escaping from the top of the needle with his improvised rope.
“Coming, you little whelp! Coming to do what I should have done a long time ago!”. Flagg shrieked as he climbed up the 300 stairs leading to the top of the needle.
“Peter drew aside and made a half-turn, the hand with the locket hanging from it still out-stretched.”
“Thomas had always excellent at archery. Although he rarely hunted, he had gone often to the archery ranges during the years of Peter’s imprisonment, and, drunk or sober, he had his father’s eye…the arrow flew from the bow. As it crossed the room it passed directly through the center of the leven valera`s locket, which still dangled from the stunned Peter’s outstretching fist. The gold chain parted with a tiny chink! Sound. … now the arrow of Rolland, bearing the hear-shaped locket of valera on it’s tip, flew across Rolland’s sitting room and plunged into that eye. And so our story end that Flagg disappears, leaving peter, Thomas and the rest of delain alone. But they know it wasn’t the end of that and so Thomas sets on a trip with Dennis to find the evil magician and slay it once and for all.
Peter is of course cleaned of guilt and rules the country wisely.
THE END
finally.
Yes thank the lord it is over
