Outside The City of Ember


Authors Note: This is a Response essay to one of the quotes made by Lina in the book “City of Ember” when they come out of the City of Ember into a New World.

                “I wonder if anyone still lives here” said Lina. When Lina said this Doon, Poppy and her, had just came out of the exit of the City of Ember to the new world they would live out their lives. They had just read a journal about the creation of the City of Ember. It told that the people would go underground and live their because of what was happening in their society. When Doon and Lina had come out they had never seen such a beautiful place so they didn’t know who or what was out there.

                First, Lina is a curious person. That is why she even got involved with the instructions and finding a way out of the perishing city. She had never been outside of the city so she had no clue what to think of this new world around her. After she said that a big dog popped out of a bush besides her not knowing what it was she and Doon were quite scared of the other beast that there might be, she was just hoping that a human would be out here that could help them. It would be quite scary not knowing if there are anyone real people around if you just came to a new world.
  
              In conclusion, Lina and Doon will probably find some help being the curious people they are. Doon had even noticed a road that might lead them to a civilization that knows what happened years ago when the City of Ember was created or they could find the descendants of the builders. Even though Doon and Lina are young I think they are able to find some people that are able to keep them safe and help them get the rest of the city to the new world.
