The Judge

The next part of the book was that a high leader in the shadowhunters was coming in to talk to Jace about what happen with his time with Valentine. They were concerned that Valentine had turned Jace to his side and was wondering how far if any he was gone. Before the high leader come everyone wanted to be by Jace’s side, but Jace only wanted two, Clair and Luke. When it came time for the High Leader to come everyone was nerves because if Jace failed he would be sent to one the worse jails in all of Jaces home country. When the High leader finally showed up, her and Jace sat down together and talked about what happened when he was kidnapped. She started asking him really personal questions like did you know he was your father, do you remember his mother, are you going to help out your father. The high leader was starting to make Jace very angry with all the close and personal questions that he was being asked. Jace had his pride however, even though that Valentine was a horrible person he was but he was not going to sell out his own father, and with that he started telling the high leader off. With Jace telling the high leader off got her angry at Jace and said “I will get the respect I deserve, especially for someone like you. After that she said that Jace was going to go to jail until he is willing to cooperate.

The only thing that I can think of that reminds me of this is those really mean substitute teachers that think to highly of themselves and they think there rules are more important then what the normal teacher has taught you. It must have been really hard for Jace to sit there and not be able to do anything about it. I thought it was really good that even though he was threatened he would not give up his beliefs and wouldn’t sell out his father.

  1. This part of the book reminds me of when you have to go for an interview. The person who is interviewing you has a lot of power but you do not know what that person really wants to hear. I believe this situation is similar to jaces.
