The incident of Amari stealing the scroll helped me to understand the important idea of courage because it showed me that she was just doing what she thought was right.	We see this in the text when Amari went to Kaea’s quarters; “The discovery of Father’s cloak places in comparison to the scroll sitting on Kaea’s desk...The breath I did not realize I was holding rushes out as I pick up the wrinkled parchment.”	This means that she wants to help the diviners to get their magic back before her Father destroys the scroll and kill more diviners.  After witnessing Binta getting stabbed, she felt like her father is eviler than magic.	This made the reader feel pity towards Amari because not everyone can be courageous to stand up to what’s right especially when it comes to the duty of your family.	It reminded me of another important part in the book when Amari had to kill a person to protect Zelie during the fight in Arena because this also shows the idea of courage. She felt weak at first because she didn’t want to use violence.	In the real world, this idea is important because we need to have courage to do things we don’t like to do.
