Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Gemma's mother has both the name that Gemma has known her by and her real name. What are they?

Answer: Virginia Doyle and Mary Dowd

Gemma finds out after her mother dies and she visits her in the realms that she was Mary Dowd, the girl from the order, and that she was friends with Circe.

2. What is the name of the girl who Gemma has to room with at the boarding school?

Answer: Ann

Cecily was the girl who Gemma never came to like. Pippa became Gemma's friend soon after they created their own order. Felicity became a very close friend of Gemma's soon after her arrival (after she was very unkind to her at the beginning). Ann was the first girl Gemma met and though she was not wealthy and was an orphan, they became friends as well.

3. When Gemma, Ann, and Felicity go to the gypsies, what does Gemma have to do to save herself and her friends from the men, but really enjoys?

Answer: kiss Kartik

The men were all grabbing for her and so she had to kiss Kartik. She ended up really enjoying it and she found herself not wanting it to end ever.

4. When the four girls make an order, at the end of their first meeting they do something to make a pact. What do they do?

Answer: They use Gemma's amulet to cut themselves

They do drink a lot of whiskey, but that was throughout the whole time. Going to the realms is not making a pact, and Pippa had a seizure while they were dancing. They used Gemma's amulet to cut themselves.

5. Pippa was going to have to marry an old man. How does she get out of it?

Answer: deciding to go to the other realm forever

She did tell him the truth about her ailment, her seizures, but that did not get her out of the marriage. She did die, but she did not kill herself. When she could have been saved, she decided to go the other realm and stay.

6. Gemma finds herself really jealous when what happens?

Answer: When Kartik looks at Pippa

When Kartik looks at Pippa she finds herself very angry because she secretly likes him and she wants his attention to herself.

7. Who is Sarah Rees-Tomes?

Answer: Circe

Sarah Rees-Tome was Mary Dowd's friend and became very hungry for power. She became evil and turned into Circe, where she hunted Virginia Doyle and Gemma.

8. What does Felicity use as a sacrifice to try get into the realm?

Answer: a deer

She is told by Circe that if she gives her a sacrifice, Circe will give her all the power she wants. And as much as Felicity is kind, she is also very power-hungry and kills a deer.

9. At the end of the book, what does Gemma give Kartik as a present?

Answer: A cricket bat

She gives him her father's cricket bat and sits to watch him open it and hit fruit from it. She is so happy to see him smile and next will give him a ball.

10. Why did Felicity and Gemma originally become friends?

Answer: Gemma saw her with a gypsy

Gemma saw Felicity hugging a gypsy, her love, and that would ruin her reputation totally. Though they were bound by this, they really did become the best of friends.
