Blog Post 2: Setting; Death or Adventure?

 The big house. The big house is the place where El Patron has his mansion and his work. Everyone in the big house is either in El Patrons family, or are part of his "property." Everyone else are eejits except for the Clone, Matt. Everyone in the big house is discussed by Matt except for Tam Lin, Celia, El Patron and Maria. The Big House is in Opium which is a country between Aztlan and America. It is a opium producing state and the Big House has eejits working for it which harvest opium. The Big House has many passages which are used to spy on people. Later Matt discovered this secret passage and also spied on what people in the Big House to see what they were up to. Under El Patrons property there is a huge storage room with all of El Patrons treasures where he wants to be buried. Matt fears the house at first, especially the people but later on he starts to explore it and finds many things about the House. He can spy on almost anyone from the secret passage. This is how he sees Stevens and Emilia's wedding. Outside if the house there are huge opium fields that stretch on for many kilometres. This is where the eeijst harvest all of the opium. This is the stuff the Felicia is always high off of. All of the people in this house are the property of El Patron who is a 143 year old, am in a wheel-chair. And now he is about to die so he asks for Matt's heart to replace his in exchange for the life he allowed Matt to live. But Celia refuses and tells El Patron that she had been poisoning Matt, not enough to kill him but enough to kill the weak El Patron and so El Patron gets very angry. So angry that he has another fatal heart attack and dies.The reason the Celia does this, poisoning Matt, is because she actually loves Matt. Unlike most of the other servants in the big house she loves and adores Matt and is his mother image. Tam Lin is his father image. Everyone else in the house hates him like Emilia, Tom, Steven and everyone else that lives in the big house.

  1. You discuss a lot about the setting in this post. However, all you are doing is restating everything we already know- you're just giving us the facts. It would be nice to see a little bit more in-depth thought- what do each of these aspects really mean? Overall, great job!
