Summary Of Brandon Mull's Five Kingdoms: Death Weavers
I am reading the fourth Five Kingdoms book, Five Kingdoms: Death Weavers, by Brandon Mull. The book focuses on a boy named Cole Randolph who was transported to a place called, The Outskirts. In this book Cole has to save his friends who were captured by a “echo” and Nazeem, the powerful torivor. In order to save his friends he has someone transport him to the first stage of the afterlife, “The Echolands,” where he seeks help from several powerful entities. Cole hopes these beings will have the power to help him find one of the missing princess, Destiny, free his friends, recover his shaping power, and ultimately defeat Nazeem and all of his evil followers. In this journal I will be characterizing Cole as loyal and courageous. In the book, …show more content…
To begin with the first question, who contributed the most help to Cole in finding Destiny. The first person(s) who could have contributed the most help are Harvan and Winston. Harvan is a echo who used to be a famous explorer and Winston is his good friend. Cole met both of these people in the Echolands and they agreed to help Cole traverse the Echolands because they have explored it extensively. Harvan and Winston navigated Cole across the Echolands and help him avoid dangerous locations. They also helped Cole stay sane in the unchanging landscape where he spent all of his time traveling because he could not get tired in the Echolands. When Cole was about to reach one of his destinations they were attacked by enemies and Harvan was captured while Winston was killed. They did all of this to buy Cole time to escape. The second person who could be debated to have helped Cole find Destiny the most is Prescia. This quote helps explain all that she did for Cole, “Prescia returned carrying a shuttered silver lantern. ‘See this, Cole… The light of the beacon will drive away dead echoes. And help conceal you from enemies” (Mull 323, 324). This quote helps show that Prescia helped Cole the most. First she tells them about She Who Stands at the Summit, and that She Who Stands at the Summit can help Cole find Destiny’s location. Prescia also gives Cole a lantern that will lead him to where he needs to go, and this gives Cole a bit of hope that will eventually find Destiny. The lantern Prescia gives them will also drive away dead echoes so they will not be attacked, and it will shield them from prying eyes. The third person who could have possibly been the biggest help for Cole in find Destiny is She Who Stands at the Summit. First off, she tells Cole about the one person who

    Henry David Thoreau, a philosopher from the nineteenth century, wrote about the contradictory relationship between citizens who behave morally and governments who rule immorally. In his speech, Civil Disobedience, he stated, “Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison” to convey that governments, rather than individuals, decide whether behavior is lawful or punishable (para. 22). This statement expresses that people should evaluate someone’s imprisonment in the context of their government’s rules without making the assumption that all prisoners are convicted based on universal and justified standards. In George RR Martin’s novel, A Game of Thrones, familial line, rather than a democratic…

    This is about a boy named Cole Matthews. I would like to discuss who this boy is and how he is always in the shadows and doesn’t even see the light anymore. Cole is a beaten down boy who is ill-tempered and thrives on people fearing him. He feeds off of people’s misery, and doesn’t take any blame, probably because he figures nothing is his fault. “Serves him right,” Cole mumbled when they first told him of Peter’s condition.” (Pg.8) Touching Spirit Bear. Cole brutally beat Peter up and 4-6 people had to pry him off, then he spit on Peter. This book is about Cole, because it’s about giving hope to all the children or at least anyone, that even when you get in trouble their will always be someone there to help and support you, and Cole just happens to main character to prove this theory.…
