The Most Important Line From Chapter 10: Allegiant

     The most important line from chapter ten in Allegiant is, "...and the city disappears into the darkness." This line is at the end of the chapter and is very important becasue it signals the journey that is about to begin, and the one that is ending. Tris and Four are leaving the city to go outside of the walls and try to find out what's out there and why the people of the factions have always been stuck in the city. The city fading behind them signals their departure and a new adventure that is about to begin outside of the walls and the safety of the city. This line also signals the end of their journey in the city. They don't know if they will ever be coming back and they have accomplished so much already. They have defeated Jeanine and been able to stay together and save alot of divergent in the process. The darkness the city fades into represents how in the dark they are about what is ahead of them in the world outside.

     From this line on, I predict that Tris and Four will face many obstacles, but will be happy to leave behind all of the bad memories they have from the city. They try to start new outside of the city and will help each other survive many different ordeals. Ultimately, I think they will have to return to the city at some point to deal with Evelyn, but that they will love it so much outside of the city, they will end up living there. I am excited to keep reading and to see the characters out of their elements in a whole new setting.

  1. I agree with you when you say that the line is very important in the chapter. It symbolizes the end of their being stuck in the city and the beginning of a journey, like you said. I think that Allegiant looks like an amazing book, I definitely am going to pick up a copy and read it!

  2. Based on what you have read so far, you made a very strong prediction. I like the quote you chose for the most important quote, along with your analysis. I have also read this book, and by far, that is probably the most important line out of all the series. The whole series before that one line leads up to this event, and the story becomes a little more adventurous after this line. I like how you included the picture of Chicago in Divergent because it gives the viewer a visual.

  3. I agree with you when you said that the line is a very important line. The end of a city starting a new beginning reminds of the ending of Farenheit 451.
