    In this event, the Admiral has a heart attack, while the power is turned off in his plane making the temperatures sky-rocket. Thus, makes the main characters go to the hospital with him. While there, Roland makes a deal with a police officer, which causes every Unwind from the Graveyard to be forced to go to the Happy Jack Harvest Camp. This event is significant to the rest of the story because without this event, the main characters would have never gone to the harvest camp, which would impact the rest of the book. They would have never had to gone through the pain of knowing they could lose one of their friends at any time. Without this event, the main characters would have been stuck at the Graveyard and not have been able to save the other lives of other Unwinds at the harvest camp. This is the fourth most important event because without this event, I don’t think the significance of this event would mean a lot if this event was taken out compared to the other…
