Chapter 2 Summary/Discussion ?s

    While Kira is rebuilding her cot, Vandara appears and starts tugging on the carrots that Kira and her mother tended together.  Suddenly, other women appeared who seemed to be working for Vandara.  They are trying to throw Kira out so they can make a pen for tykes, toddlers who cause trouble.  The women threaten to throw rocks at Kira, but Kira reminds them that they will be put to death if they kill her and Kira suggests a meeting with the Council of Guardians.

Discussion ?s
1) Do you think the women who appear to be working for Vandara like being harmful to children?  Do they enjoy listening to Vandara and obeying her orders?  Is them doing this out of respect for Vandara or fear for her?  Explain.
2) How do you think Kira remained calm?  Where do you think she got the skills to not fight back?  Do you think that Kira made her reminder out of bravery or to get Vandara off of her?  Explain.
