Reflection:

This portion of the novel still talks about the wrestling. It is starting to get a little irritating. But it is also cool that the two teams have twelve men on each side and they face eachother one on one. They look at who would be equally matched and then make them fight. This was just cool to me because this is like wrestling in high school. They go by weight and that is who you fight. This is what had attracted me.

Quote: "Who will wrestle for our village? ...

...Then sen him word to fight for us."

Reflection:

This poem was a bit weird because it had no fierce meaning. But i do understand the meaning. There is a wrestler that was so good and they all want him to win the matches. Some of the things in this novel just have no big purpose, yet they are there. Yet these pointless things are what attracts my mind and lets me write freely about them like this one. This is what i found during my reading.
