He fell to the ground, right next to the fallen dragon. Emmeric could faintly hear his father, Bernar, putting the fire out. Bernar carried Emmeric back to their house and set him down on one of the beds inside. For the rest of the day, Emelnie took care of Emmeric, making sure he was comfortable and had clean water. Emmeric couldn’t help but notice the way that his father now looked at him with respect. After that, life returned to normal. They had stored the dragon’s body behind the house until they figured out what to do with it. Bernar and Emmeric tried to make up for the crops that were destroyed in the fire, but there was just too much loss. Emmeric and his father had to give up on the crops and decided to head west to Charmed Creek and try to catch as many fish as they could to sell and eat in place of the damaged crops. Everywhere they went, Bernar told the story of how his son had slain a Sunborne dragon. Three and a half weeks had passed and Emmeric and his father were headed home from the creek when the Knights showed up. There were three of them and they seemed to be surrounding the dragon’s carcass, turning it from side to side and measuring it with

Around 442 BC in the city of Athens, Greece, Sophocles wrote the greatly admired tragedy, Antigone. Antigone includes many themes such as Freedom, Protection of Personal Dignity, Obedience to Civil Law, Protection of Community/Nation, Loyalty/Obligation to Family, and Observance of Religious Law. Many of the Greek tragedies that have been written include a tragic hero that has his/her tragic flaw. In Antigone there are two main characters; Creon, the tyrant king of Thebes, and Antigone, the daughter of Oedipus and Jocasta. One of these main characters must be chosen to be the tragic hero in the story. Creon and Antigone are almost polar opposites when it comes to views of society, but their attitudes are almost identical.

Thanks to his great size and strength, he was given assignment to guard the Draconic priests when they ventured abroad to spread the word of Bahamut. On one of these expeditions, he happened upon a hidden shrine to the goddess Aasterinian. When he stopped to pray to the Messenger of Io, she called out and welcomed the young dragon.

The opening events of the play Antigone, written by Sophocles, quickly establish the central conflict between Antigone and Creon. Creon has decreed that the traitor Polynices, who tried to burn down the temple of gods in Thebes, must not be given proper burial. Antigone is the only one who will speak against this decree and insists on the sacredness of family and a symbolic burial for her brother. Whereas Antigone sees no validity in a law that disregards the duty family members owe one another, Creon's point of view is exactly opposite. He has no use for anyone who places private ties above the common good, as he proclaims firmly to the Chorus and the audience as he revels in his victory over Polynices. He sees Polynices as an enemy to

Sophocles, a great tragedian, was the one who gave Greek tragedies their traditional form. An important part of traditional Greek tragedies is the presence of a tragic hero. All tragic heroes should have the characteristics of rank, a tragic flaw, a downfall, and a recognition of mistakes. The seemingly tragic hero is Antigone. She wants to bury her brother Polyneices even though this would be going against Creon, who is her uncle and the king. When Antigone buries Polyneices Creon sentences her to death because of it. In Antigone by Sophocles the tragic hero is not Antigone because she only meets the characteristic of a tragic flaw, hers being pride, but doesn 't meet the other three characteristics of a

As the tragedy concludes, the chorus issues its final words: "Pray for no more at all. For what is destined for us, men mortal, there is no escape," demonstrating how justice remains impartial to the prejudice of men; those who make imprudent judgments will ultimately suffer from the consequences of their actions. In Sophocles' Antigone, these prejudices notably surface in the form of paternalism as demonstrated through Creon's government, highlighting the importance of gender roles throughout the play. Therefore, analyzing the motif of gender roles and its effect on the definition of justice through the perspectives of Ismene, Antigone, and Creon enables the audience to understand how Sophocles' macroscopic analogy to humanity's

One of the most memorable quotes is when Saphira told Eragon “the only true guide is your heart.” This was said after he found his uncle murdered and was frantic to make a decision about hunting the killers. The quote can be interpreted in many ways, one being that it is hinting that Saphira is his guide due to his love for her, making her Eragon’s heart. The quote also shows how important Saphira’s opinion is to Eragon. He confides in her in his times of need, which leads to wise words and advice from Saphira. In one instance, Eragon’s friend had murdered an unarmed attacker. This made Eragon question his morals and his friend’s intentions, so he pleaded for Saphira to help sort out his wandering mind. In response, Saphira states “If you can’t forgive, at least forget, for he meant you no harm, however rash the act was.” After this, Eragon began to ponder and came to the conclusion that she was right. Saphira helps Eragon change his perspective and become more aware of his own moral beliefs. Without Saphira, Eragon’s mind would be frantic constantly and he would be very close

Full of drama and tragedy, Antigone can be used to relate to current conflicts. One such conflict is that between Haemon and his father Creon. Haemon looks up to Creon with honor and pride, but as conflict arises, that relation is disassociated and new feelings grow. The first conversation between them is what initiates the downfall of their bond. While it seems that Creon is the most important person in Haemon’s life, Antigone is in fact the one that has won Haemon over.

It is plain to see what about the character of Antigone it is that makes this a tragedy. Tragedy is defined as a dramatic composition dealing with a serious or somber theme, and this story fits all these criteria. First of all, it involves a tragic course of events that involved both of her brothers dying and then being completely disrespected even in death. She felt she had to rectify this mistake, even though it was against the law, and the opposition was too great. Because of her attempt to rectify the injustice, even more tragic things happened to her and her family. This is why she is a tragic heroine.
