In the book Saba, Maviah, Steven, and Sara found where the mystic was staying and went to go find him. They had to cross the sea again and went on Elias' ship again. Since they wanted to get there as soon as possible, they crossed with the possibility of a small storm. No one expected it to be as bad as it was, especially not Elias who boasted that he was the best sailor in the whole sea and that the possibility was nothing. The storm was crazy, and consumed the boat with water. Everyone was prepared to die but all of a sudden the storm ended and they heard the voice of the mystic. In his surprise, Stephen jumped out of the boat to get to him ignoring the fact that he couldn't swim. They pulled him out and made it safely to shore. There they waited a couple days until the mystic arrived and met him there. He spoke to them as well as a huge group of people that had come from all around to see him. If I had to write a sequel, I would make it so Maviah completed her mission and convinced Herod of lowering her defenses. That way she could get back to Judah, who was suffering day after day in those dungeons. They would move back to her father's kingdom where he would regain his title as king. Maviah would be treated better and as an equal for everything she did and live happily ever after with Judah and have another child. The main character would stay the same, shameful person she considers herself to be. The conflict would be for her to complete her mission given to her by King Aretas. It will be hard but she will pull through in the end. Saba will die protecting her and die content with all he accomplished. Maviah will be sparked by his death and complete her mission so that no one else will suffer the same fate as him, especially not Judah. I would recommend this book to a friend depending on their interest because I feel like it is for a specific audience. Not everyone would enjoy this book, but a certain few will and I would recommend it to them.

The ending of the book seemed very crazy. If the storm didn’t end as soon as it did what would have happened. It’s interesting how you tell the sequel to the book. Do you think when you were writing this you out a little bit of your opinions into it. But over all a great blog post.

The ending of the book was interesting. Your sequel is unique and seeing the process of the book from your perspective was easy and very well organised to follow. How would you want the book to actually end ?
