For Cole to find the courage to walk past Morgassa, and continue on to the next person he fears would take tremendous courage. Cole encounters several other beings that he fears and that tempt him to touch them, but he keeps on going and makes it out of the hall without giving into his fears. A third example of Cole’s courageousness, is when he jumps into a slipstream after Destiny. This quote helps explain what happened, “Tessa/Destiny never slowed. ‘Tell my sisters I love them!’ She shouted as she sprang into the slipstream… Cole jumped in. The shrill whistling of the slipstream gained the overwhelming fury of a hurricane” (Mull 406-408). A slipstream is a river in the Echolands that echoes enter when they want to move onto the Other, the life after the Echolands. This shows Coles courageousness because to jump into a slipstream means certain death, and he jumped into a slipstream, regardless of his own safety, to rescue someone else. He not only pulled Destiny out of the slipstream, but he also got out
