Something can change

So far, I've said me, Doon, and Poppy are finding new land. Then how if all this is worth it. So many people and things have been in our way and some have been the most helpful. I haven't told you about my life basically but i can give u a quick summary or so. I haven't met my real parents yet but i have met Poppy and is basically the only sibling i know. Then i live with my granny in her old shop. She used to sell and make scarfs or mittens from her yarn. Now that the shop is closed, we live their. I was just a regular girl in my granny's old shop then like i said before, i found a box. No one was suppose to find it but i did. I didn't realize ho wmuch it meant. That's why were ona mission to find many different things up there besides Ember. Sometimes i think i might miss it but then again some things were just to much for me. A lot of things have changed since I've last been in Ember. My friend and i dont talk much anymore, Everyone is dedicated to their assignment day job. The mayor gave us the chills or atleast to me. So take 1 minute to think if u can change something that hasn't been done in a long time. Being able to do this with courage gives me more and more confidence. Also this trip has made me alot more mature
Thnx for reading:)

Thinking what to do

Well during all those adventures, I've had a feeling about Doon. During those crazy things we did he always seemed quiet but helpful. He would know what to say and he would give great advice, that's why we were good friends before now I feel bad for him that he works as a pipe worker being messenger makes me feel great but it was Doon's job he picked. He seems so loyal to me and Poppy. I know why he switched, to find out more about the city. I agree with him, the city of ember has been here for some time and no one knew the true history of ember. Like, why underground?? Our supplies have dropped and if we run out we have nothing left. Thtas why me, Doon, and sadly Poppy are risking our lives to find something out their so we can have life again in ember. I never would have though ti would be doing this...speaking of which even though I've made it this far, im afraid of the obstacles.What should i do? Go back and finish up my duty as messenger, or risk my life with Doon and Poppy to find life? Big decisions...but then Doon came to me and and said, "think about it, this is a one life time oppourtunity". When i said he knows what to say, i wasn't kidding. He's giving me confidence so now th eadventure continues! :)

The Finding

Doon wants to save Ember by fixing the generator so he switches jobs with me, I am a pipeworker, but now i became a messenger. One day i found an old box in the back of the closet of my little sister Poppy, she had chewed most of it so i couldn't really read it. I tried to put it back together but I ended up showing Doon for some help. We figured some of it out together and searched all over Ember to find out what is going on. In pipeworks there was a ladder found near the side platform running along the river. Doon, Poppy, and I go down it and find a landing where there were boats, candles and matches. We got in the boat and go through the tunnels until we came to a shore underground. We follow the pathway up and find an opening where we came out into, it was night time when we reached the top. We believe that the city does have the only light until the sun rises, and we found an opening where we can see down to the city of Ember from the mountain. We sent down a message tied to a rock hoping someone will find it and help out. That's all I have for now, we will see what happens from what we have found.
