An Argument Between Michael and Mina
"Thank God I wasn't sent to school/to be flog'd into following the styles of a fool."
You don't know anything. We don't get flogged and my friends aren't fools.
Mina doesn't go to school. Her mother educates her. They believe schools don't let you have freedom. One day, Michael's school friends come over and insult Mina by calling her "Monkey Girl". Mina is angry and she blows up at Michael. She delivers the first insult to Michael. Later they make up and become friends again.

The Skellig Dance
They meet Skellig this particular night and he is stronger than he was before. They form a circle, they grow ghostly wings, then they spun and danced and they were lifted from the floor and they were flying. Their heart beated together in rhythm and it seemed as if they had become one being.
