The Hero's Journey By George Carter

Two books can seem completely different from each other when judged by characteristics such as genre, plot, and theme. However, if people were to look at the books together and as a whole, they might notice one striking similarity between the two. That striking similarity is known as the hero’s journey. First observed and documented by Joseph Campbell, the hero’s journey is a concept in which heroes, or people who commit actions for the greater good, follow a three-step cycle known as departure, fulfillment, and return. At the first stage of the hero’s journey, the hero receives a call to an adventure that takes him from the comforts of his home. Next, at the most important stage of the hero’s journey, the hero begins to experience life

Before we had time even to move, nothing remained of the three-master save some pieces of wreckage floating on the surface and an army of rats covering the rocks left bare by the receding tide. Thousands of heads rose, felt the wind, and we were scented, seen! To them we were fresh meat, after possible weeks of starving. We were shaken from what we saw.

Charity and the children left Marilee's amid warm hugs and wishes for a safe journey. The girls especially, were reluctant to leave. They enjoyed being at Marilee's, having the luxuries of a roof over their heads and not stuck riding in a wagon all day. Charity figured being there reminded them of being home with Nancy, because Marilee took them under her wing and into the kitchen with her to help her cook. The boys were a different story- they were raring to go; they enjoyed camping out and being on the trail. To them, it was a grand adventure. The last couple of years, the older boys had gone with their father and grandfather, to check the traps. And, they had even gotten to go to Fort Charlotte a time or two. But the girls had always been

There he was, Silvio Maldini, he didn't look very well, his steps were clumsy and he looked out of balance, it was probably from that unusual drink his master gave him, he explicitly told he to drink very little of it since it was too strong, nevertheless he didn't listen as usual. It was now late at night and he was still out in the streets of Rome, so he decided it was enough for the day and went to sleep. The next morning he felt way better, in fact he felt like a complete different man after that good night of sleep, he went to the bathroom, washed his face and went to bed again, but he noticed something strange, there were some strange noises coming from the streets, they sounded similar to trumpets, just way louder, he also noticed that the streets were louder that usual, way louder, it almost hurt his ears, he was starting to get scared, what was happening he though, so he rushed to the window and then his jaw dropped, he felt panicked, he didn't know what to do, there were pairings that moved, strange black roads were fast squares passed and he also noticed that everyone seemed to stop every time a red light appeared in a yellow box.

We set off on the Missouri River, bound into the vast wilderness. There is little comfort in our daily lives. The sleeping quarters for us was a preposterously cramped, little room. The rotten smell of sweat makes me want to jump off this ship and swim all the way back to the original departing point. Obviously, I won’t do this, I have a duty and I will fulfill this task no matter what I have to live through. I guess it was just my will as a soldier acting up. I won’t even complain to the captains who were Lewis and Clark since they were my superiors. Any superior is meant to be followed, obeyed and given full respect from all of their underlings. I’ve also seen many other experienced soldiers aboard this journey. Some of them I like, and some of them I absolutely despise. This was also the same for the enlistees that are along with us on this

The second half of the journey that practically achieves the main goal of what the hero or heroine searches for while moving forward in their quest. Usually the “boon” classifies itself as an object of everyday necessities that serves as a source of power to enlighten the hero to finish through. After Gregor’s death, the family’s sympathy dies quickly as they moved on with their lives having hope for Grete to soon marry a man that can support the family. Although Gregor classifies as a burden, he drives the family’s source of income away. Grete presents no sympathy for Gregor after his death. Gregor serves his life as a helper to the family, his support makes him relief that he finances his contribution towards the family. His goal succeeds

He frowns intently at the sign taped on the inside of the door. 'Family emergency', it says.

Jessica's wrists were bound tightly and lashed to the corners of the four-poster bed, her ankles were similarly tied. She was naked apart from her stockings. A feeling of fear and excitement washed over her, she was helpless, powerless to stop him from doing anything he liked to he soft white flesh. She could feel her skin tingling and her heart rate increase as he stood over her, checking her binds. She could see the bulge in his shorts and could make out the outline of his thick manhood. She longed to taste it, to feel it deep inside her. These thoughts made her slightly breathless and she could feel her crotch getting warmer and wetter by the minute. Steven was standing over her, looking at her, taking in every curve of her sexy body, drinking her in with his eyes. He wanted her, wanted her badly, she could tell. His hands reached out and

Suddenly aware that he was alone at the spot where a man may have lost his life, not twenty minutes ago, where the body may be submerged beneath him right now, he ran to his father along the bank.
