And I understood that as long as there are dreamers left, there will never be want for a dream. And I understood just what we would do for each other, just what we would do for the ebb and pull of the dream, the bigger dream that held us all. Anything. Everything.
French (in narration), p. 350
In the moving final lines of The Marrow Thieves, author Cherie Dimaline uses parallel language to deepen the reader's reflection on the theme of survival. Earlier, Miig explained to Wab and the rest of the group that they have the same motivation as the Recruiters: survival. He helps them to see that in order to keep themselves and their found family safe, they must be capable of doing “anything” and “everything”—including ugly, violent acts. But at the end of the novel, Dimaline portrays the more positive side of survival as a motivating force. As he witnesses Miig and Isaac’s emotional reunion, French realizes that humans are capable of incredible feats to stay alive, to find their loved ones, and to follow their collective dream of building a better future.
