Chapter 11 & 12

In chapter 11 and 12, the major event and most intense part of the story is reached. It is the turning point in the character's lives that changes the story. Petra has another incident and can control David and his friend's reactions in order to help her when she is in trouble. I wonder if she is conscious of the fact  that she can cause such reactions in the others. I think David is very kind when he tries to teach her how to control her power and "thought shapes". Petra seems very adventurous and curious. He is a good brother by trying to protect her.

Uncle Axel warns David about being careless and he finds out that people know about him and his telepathic group. They have been betrayed and must escape. When David is awoken in the middle of the night, he finds out that he must escape immediately. It must have been really hard for him to leave everything he knew and owned behind. If it was me, I don't think I would be able to leave so quickly. I find it very interesting how Rosalind tells David about how her mother helped her to escape. She seems unlike the "norm" and society around her.

I wonder who these people from Zealand are. Could it be that these people have shorten the names of the original places they once were. Could Newf be Newfoundland and Zealand be New Zealand?
