The Dark Is Rising Exam Answer Key

Multiple Choice

Long Answer

1. The magic fire is a sure sign to the Dark that an Old One is there. The rooks go to tell the Dark that Will is there, and the witch-girl, Maggie Barnes, puts a spell on Will and almost gets the signs before Merriman arrives. Will’s motivation for starting the fire is also questionable, as he is largely intoxicated with his newfound powers. (Part 1, Chapter 4)

2. Because Paul and the rector have learned too much about the world of the Old Ones that Will lives in.
