1. The King tells the boy that when we are children, “everything is clear and everything is possible,” but as time passes mysterious forces convince us to abandon our dreams. Do you think this is true? What are the “mysterious forces” that threaten to hold us back as we grow older?
2. What is the significance of the theme of pursuing one’s “Personal Legend?” What are other ways of expressing this idea? Have you had a personal experience with this idea? If so, what was it?
3. What tests and setbacks does Santiago experience during this section of his journey? Why is it important that he faces and overcomes these challenges?

5. How were you able to relate to the story even though the world it describes is so different from life in contemporary America? What aspects of the story seem most relevant to you?
