I am afraid this is my fault, for letumosis spreading to Peony. If only I wasn’t Lunar, my gorgeous little sister would still be alive. She could’ve danced with now Emperor Kai – had all of her dreams come true. So many Earthens have died, only because I bestowed upon them the curse of the sickness. Letumosis takes your life slowly, one by one. I know letumosis is the main point of all this, but could it just have been me who’s spread it to the rest of the population? Four stages, all miserable. I watched Peony in that last stage, dying because of me. Her yellow skin, her crusty nails, her once lively eyes closed for one last time. Why was I born Lunar? Why did I have to be some princess, when being cyborg already made my life miserable? Of course, I was full of shock when I …show more content…
She should’ve been more careful, she should’ve killed Cinder head on. If she did that, she would still be ruling and bathing in riches not having to worry about the stupid little girl. Oh, and Kai; the young Emperor dealing with the weight on his shoulders from so many catastrophic events. The worst of them all being the spread of letumosis. Was it true that Lunars had flown to earth and spread the fatal disease? Were they taking over an empire his father and blood line had taken so long to build? This has caused him to take on the responsibility of a humongous role far too early; this has led him to meet Cinder. And now there’s Levena strutting down towards Earth as if she owns it. Adri and Pearl have lost Peony from the same disease Garan contracted. They’re both sure this is all Lunars fault, for this disease causing havoc amongst the commonwealth. These nasty Lunars will pay. All that is left in Adri and Pearl’s minds are grief and embarrassment from Peony’s passing and Cinder’s

Cinder was adopted by the Ardi family but is seen as more property than a family member. Her step-mother blames her for her sister’s illness letumosis also known as the blue plague. After a heated argument Cinder is given to the government for medical research. Cinder is immune to the plague and and finds out her sister passed away. Lunars are the humans that migrated to the moon and adapted to the new environment in the past 150 years.
He stepped into the headlight of my car as a ground-shaking BOOM following a massive burst of light shook the earth.
In the textbook, review the student essay on p. 199, “Allowing Guns on Campus Will Prevent Shootings, Rape.” In an abbreviated format, the sample contains the elements that you will be including in your Course Project.

Because that Lunars have been known to abuse their gift, Earthens feared them and labeled them as a greedy, sadistic, and power-hungry race. Queen Levana is a prime example of that stereotype. However, it is not known to all Earthens that some Lunars are born without the Lunar gift and not all Lunars are malicious. Dr. Erland would be an example of this. Although he is a gifted Lunar, he is friendly and respectful to others. He has never abused his Lunar gift on Earth and pays the price everyday by suffering mentally since the skill is tied into the Lunars’ genetics. This theme is expressed adequately through these opposing
“Some people say I was lucky to survive, other will say I deserved it for the choice I made. I’m here to say I was lucky, it’s never ok to say your life isn’t worth living even at your worst you can always look forward tomorrow will come and if you put your mind to it you’ll see that anything is possible.” – Stephen McGregor Professional Paralympian
One always asks, why does one kill? For love, for money, for power…and sometimes because the devil was hissing in your ear, kissing your neck, willing you on. He’d spoke of wrong doings, and trespasses, ones that could not be forgiven. So Cain had taken destiny into his hands, millenia ago he was going to find himself wrapped up in the embrace of hell, of Satan, and the Pit.
After John harnessed the team to the wagon, he, Charity, and Charles loaded Uriah into it. She and Charles then headed to town with him. She left John and Martha Jane to watch over the younger children, with strict orders that they had all better be on their best behavior until her return. John was nearly twelve; she figured he ought to be capable of watching the little ones.
“After defeating the Cyclops Polyphemus, my men grew exhausted. They grew thirsty from rowing under the beating hot sun. Sweat dripped down their heads and the ship’s deck grew moist from the mix of the salty, seawater and sweat. We stopped by on a nearby island.
Strutting through the familiar, gate worn by time, I spread my arms, taking in the saccharine aroma of the fresh grass. The remaining glimmers of the sun glisten on every blade that peeks through the moist soil, composing a sea of sparkling beauty, only comparable to a poem. The meadow is breathtaking this evening, as the sun sets behind the trees in the distance, leaving a glow of pinks, peaches, ambers, and crimsons behind as if a bowl of fruit had exploded in the sky.
You used to think the philosophy 'you only live one' is the most ridiculous excuse for justifying everything you've ever heard of - if you're meant to be reckless and live as fast as you can, 'there's a million and one ways to die' sounds much nicer. Explore them. Investigate them. Enjoy them. Cherish everyone of them, especially that split second between when you lean back in your chair and it hangs midway in air so close the the ground that the only thing you can think of is 'that is it.'
The Moon Festival is a very important day. Ying-ying remembered when it was her first time attending the festival, her nursemaid would tell her to keep her mouth closed. But, she was to curious and ended up banned from the festival. (41)
The advancing technology allows the reverse of biological aging. In “BioViva Treats First Patient with Gene Therapy to Reverse Aging,” BioViva US is the very first company to try two therapies to try and reverse biological aging. Instead of providing patients with pills, the gene therapy will allow doctors to treat diseases by placing a gene into a person’s cell. In addition, it has been discovered that the main cause of death is cellular aging. Because the aging cell causes Alzheimer disease, memory loss, muscle wasting, and cancer, BioViva is trying to reverse aging and cure the aging cell. Thus, by trying many gene therapies on one person, it might allow them to avoid cellular aging. The CEO, Elizabeth Parrish, even states how this company
This shows that the Earth goddess was a ‘force to be reckoned with the Ibo’s eyes. Most of their life depended on pleasing her. If they didn’t, it had terrible consequences.
