Some of the most important places in the book are the Renegades Headquarters,Nova’s above ground home, the Anarchist’s subway tunnels, and the Cloven Cross Library.

England is populated and during the 18th century is very busy and full of people. Both locations symbolize the true meaning of the story with being cold and lonely to full, hopeful, and surrounded by people.

My choice was to creating a poem that reflects the themes of "Just Mercy" was my choice. The title of the poem is "The Weight of Justice," which describes the emotional and mental burden that one faces when seeking justice in an unjust world. This poem is written in free verse and consists of four stanzas, each conveying a different emotion and idea. The title of the poem serves as a fitting representation of its content and message. Through this poem, I aimed to highlight the struggles of those who fight for justice in an unfair system and the emotional toll it takes on them.
The setting in “Rip van Winkle”, in the beginning of the story, was being mentioned by the author about the changes happened to the mountains and hues in every change of season, weather and even hour which indicates some magical element in the place that the author is about to tell. With this being mentioned in the story, the readers will know that the setting of the story is not some kind of place that they are familiar with or a place that they have seen before. The readers will suspect that the setting of the place is exist or not based on the description of the author about the story.

These things all have a great impact on the setting of the book.
