Doon sent a quick letter to his dad about the way out of Ember: how to get there, also about the rock with the E, and the candles and the boat. He put it in the mailbox, and ran to the Pipeworks. Lina had told Mrs. Murdo that she and Doon had found the way out of Ember, and would be leaving Ember. She also included instructions about how to get to the boats and candles, and how to use them.
“Tell the whole city about it. Come with the whole city.” Mrs. Murdo looked confused, but nodded. Then Lina took Poppy and headed to the pipeworks. She met Doon and together, they got on the boat, lit their candles and started their journey. After about 10 minutes, Doon asked, “What did you say to Mrs. Murdo?”
“I told her about the whole thing. About the candles, how to get in here, and about the boats!”, Lina answered.
“Well, I sent the same message to my dad. Lets just hope they understand and take the whole city with them. And, when they are there, we can tell them all about the new place, just like we planned!” Doon said. Then they continued their journey, talking about what the new city would look like. When their journey was over, they finally saw the new place. It was definitely nighttime, but there was a ball with a dim light shining over them.
“It’s awesome”, they said, both sounding happy, but sleepy. They hadn’t slept for a day, or even many days. So they found a soft place, full of plants, and went to sleep. The next morning, they were woken up by the talking sounds of people. The door they came through suddenly opened, and the people of Ember came out, including Mrs. Murdo, and Mr. Harrow. They all looked surprised at the beautiful sight they had never seen in Ember. Then, they all started planning together about building homes and what to do.
