Know he could never take them all on by himself; he takes the risk of the tunnel not knowing if he will ever see the light of day again. Not long after he emerges into a courtyard and heard screaming. Kragg knew that voice as soon as he heard it, it was Dana his love.
He bolted after the noise striking down anyone in his path. He rounded the last corner and there she was. Being tortured by a man in a dark robe, he could only be Orhag. “Where is he!” yelled Orhag. ”where is who?” Dana asked calmly “Your love Kragg” Orhag replied “Hello Orhag, I am taking my love back!” but before Orhag could turn around Kragg wacked him with the hilt of his sword, knocking him out. He then untied Dana, “Quick we have to go!” he told her. As they ran Dana picked up a dagger from one of the guards Kragg struck down just minutes before. They didn’t encounter any guards until the entrance. At the Entrance Kragg and Dana took the guards by surprise, striking all 4 guards without breaking a stride. As soon as they were out of the castle Kragg knew they were safe and that Dana was going to be okay.
By the time they reached the swamp they had slowed to a walk. Kragg had been asking the whole way if Dana was okay but she just kept running. Kragg grabbed her wrist and made her stop. This was the first time he got a look at her back. There was a deep slash near the small of her back. “How could you not of told me about this?” Kragg asked. Dana just shrugged and said “I wanted to get you out of danger first.” That was the last thing she said before she pasted out. Kragg used his shirt as a bandage to slow the bleeding and started carrying Dana though the murky swamp.

    Dana’s arm being ripped off is the first thing that the reader sees in the novel, but we really don’t know where, why, or how all of this happened. Obviously this is a very graphic and disturbing image and it is a good beginning to a wonderful novel such as this one but the reader needs to learn that this wasn’t the first and only injury, but rather the last and most hurtful of many. After the scene in the hospital the reader is taken to the beginning, which is when she first travels back to the 1800’s. The reason that she traveled back was because Rufus, her ancestor, was drowning so she jumped in, brought him to land, and revived him, as she was doing this Margret, Rufus’s mother, was hitting her back. When she went back to the 1900’s she noticed that Margret had left bruises on her back and shoulders. She described coming back from the past and being hit for saving a child’s life as “…being like a victim of a robbery or rape or something—a victim who survives, but who doesn’t feel safe anymore” (17). From this point on in the novel Dana is always unsure of her safety and of her future even when she is in her home. Her back being hurt symbolizes her “backbone” or “home plate” being damaged from this…
