Foreshadowing-

1. On page 14-15 when Rekh tells Ranofer about the gold being stolen it gives me this idea that ranofer is going to do something to find the gold stealer.

2.when Ranofer thinks to himself that he wants to escape but then thinks i have to stay at that point i thought that later in the story he might change his mind and flee.

Questions-

Why is Gebu referred as Ranofer's half-brother?

Why is Ranofer so scared of Gebu I mean is he a kid or a grown up or what?????

I think that Ranofer is so scared of Gebu because Gebu is the one that is in-charge of him. - Sifa

Alina: like Sifa said maybe he is just scared of him because Gebu is the one taking care of Ranofer but maybe because if he does something bad or says something to him, Gebu might like kick him out of their house and maybe Ranofer doesnt have anybody else!

Well I think that half brother means step brother. So Gebu has the same mom as Ranofer but different dads. Longondo

Nice job Kaif, and nice discussion about the book by all the people who commented. a half bro is when a dad or mom has 1 wife or husband, he has a kid with her/him, he meets another wife or husband, and he has a kid with that lady/man too, so that might have happened in this case... and gebu is a kid David

i agree with sifa i also think that gebu is the one incharge of ranofer thats why hes so scared of him. i think hes maybe 18 or something around that. Aly Ajani.

thibaut: ya i agree with sifa also because its kinda clear that gebu is incharge of ranofer by the way he treats him and maybe he is also scared because gebu might be stronger than him...

I know that gebu is his incharge but still ma parents are incharge of me but still i am not scared and by the way thank you david now i get what a half bro is.

Sam: task # 1 i agree that maybe ranfor might find who has been stealing the gold. Sam:task# 2 ranofor is scared of gebue because gebue is older that him and your have to repect your elders. Assignment 2

TASK 1 Gebu-mean/harsh it says in the book that ranofer is trying to stop the bleeding from his nose after a half an hour beat up

it also says in the book that gebu doesnt listen to ranofer and make ranofer work in the stonecutting shop instead of the goldsmith rekh's gold shop

Ranofer-Brave

in the book it says that ranoafer was told to bring the wineskin from ibni by gebu but he says no to ibni and tells ibni that gebu does not like his wine.

the other reason why ranoafer is brave is because even though he knew that tell heqet about the wineskin thing would be a big risk he still took it I agree that Gebu is harsh and mean especially to Ranofer. Victor

i agree that heqet is a good friend to ronefer a he is supportive because he tol rek about what gebu was doing and didnt mension ronefers name an is suportive because as you said he didnt back out of the problem when his friend was in trouble. (surya)

What I think that happens in chapter 8-9 is that ranofer and heqet and the ancient all come together they start meeting everyday and it says that heqet decides to have lunch together when heqet and ranofer get their midday break and heqet teaches ranofer some of what he learns in the gold shop so that if any day it occurs that ranofer returns to the gold shop all he is lacking is the practice and there is also an example of this on pages 15-17 when it’s the second day heqet and ranofer are having lunch but ranofer doesn’t have anything to eat but heqet offers ranofer some food but ranofer says know even though he is very hungry and then the ancient steps in and tells them how friends are suppose to act and then they all start trading food and start coming together and all off them are laughing and eating having a good time that’s why I think this picture resembles whats happening in chapter 8-9.

Your picture does a great job showing what you talk about and you make good points about the book ok im going to write a bunch of words that rime and try to figure what to do with them in our rap ok.
