MEDALLION

34. Point of View
 The novel is written
in third person with
Prince Trave being
the main character
followed in the
story.
Setting
 This story is set in the
Medieval times in a land
called Gadalla. Gris and
Trave travel to the
Kolonian border passing
through Rubran, Skreel
Forest, Blee Bog, Dider,
Ogham Pass and Torus
Point.

35. Characters
 Prince Trave is the prideful
prince of a land ruled by his
lazy uncle, Panii. Gris is the
King of Kapnos who comes to
see King Panii. Tanarad is one
of Gris’s Captains and an
excellent horseman. Sard is a
cruel character who wants to
capture, the prince, get the
medallion and deal with Gris.
Thag is a high ranking Sardan
who wants to take Gadalla by
force. Enna is the kind girl who
heals Trave’s wrists when he is
injured.

36. Rising Events
 Prince Trave is the prideful prince of a land called
Gadalla. His country is ruled by his lazy uncle, Panii.
His uncle refuses to side with the other good
countries called Kapnos, Kolonia, and Dider. Then
Gris, King of Kapnos, comes to see King Panii in
Ganet, the capital of Gadalla. Panii still refuses to
become allies with the other countries even though
the Dark Alliance-- the three remaining countries of
Sarda, Torridia, and Litoris-- plan to take over
Gadalla by force. Then Gris tells Trave of a
medallion. A medallion that belonged to Trave's late
father. A medallion that the true king of Gadalla
needs. A medallion that is needed to successfully
rule the kingdom. Then Trave leaves with Gris in
search of his father's medallion.

37. Problems
 On this long journey,
Trave encounters
spies, an earthquake,
an immense bog
inhabited by a
mysterious hermit,
and giant birds of
prey. Because of
pride and flattery, he
refuses to listen to
Gris and he briefly
joins the bad side
and soon realizes
that was a huge
mistake.
Solutions
 Trave becomes less critical
of others and is humbled
through the experiences of
this journey. He learns that
Kings need to show
compassion for their men
and be concerned with
their safety and well being.
He learns that it is
important to be decisive,
but to listen to his people.
He becomes king and
wears the medallion that
Gris had around his chest
the entire time.

38. Theme
 Qualities such as honesty, hard-work,
loyalty and forgiveness are present
themes in this novel. Being a good judge
of character, knowing the dangers of false
pride, learning to lead by following and
understanding the value of loyalty and
authority are also important. In his
journeys, Trave learns the duties of a
king: to learn what is true, to believe the
truth and to act on that belief.
