In 2–3 complete sentences, thoroughly explain the theme of your Module One short story. What message or big idea does the author communicate through the story? Provide AT LEAST TWO SPECIFIC DETAILS FROM THE TEXT to support your analysis of the theme.

The theme of the story is the quest of
power between stories. This is seen early
in the story, when Waverly is waiting for
this power. She then learn how to play
chess, seeing her brothers played it. The
main message is basically not to give up
and power is not a good thing
