Today I read the Seer for 40 minutes and read from pages 131 to 147. Here is what I read: In the box that Jacob found, were toys and a few clothes that would be too big for Xander to wear. Jacob found a whistle and played it for a long time. Then, Xander came and took the whistle away from Jacob and was pretty mad. Later that night, Xander finally told about his family. What happened was that the place that he and his family and other people with families lived was bombed. When Xander and the rest of the people came back, the building was in shambles. He could only find certain things to remember his Wife and two boys. Although, he was able to find them. After that night, Xander decided that he would take Jacob to Melville again. The next day, they went to Kala and asked her if she could tell them any places to get certain equipment. Finally, they left and headed toward the place they needed to go to.

The Seer

Today I read the Seer for 20 minutes and I read from pages 18 to 23. Here is what I read: Jacob had been walking for days and he knew that the guy who gave him supplies had lied to him. Jacob was thankful though that the man gave him some food and water. He then saw something out of the ordinary stick out from the grass. At first since it was white he thought it was a flower, But then as he got closer to it he shuddered with disgust. It was Bones! but not just bones it was human bones. He had recognized the remains of the clothes and when he turned the body around he was shocked. There on what used to be the persons chest was a sounder. It was a man or women from the city of Harmony. He used his own sounder just to make sure it wasn't the body of his friend Delaney. He remembered her too leaving the city of Harmony and other things about her. The body wasn't her but it was someone from Harmony. wHen he took the sounder from the person and put it in his bag with his other stuff he heard a noise. It was Gruskers.
