It’s face was covered with a black veil and the staff she held bore a black serpent baring it’s teeth at them. Her spotless white gloves held two stones. The two stones were small, shiny, and silver, each inscripted with an unknown dialect and were the type of rock you would find by the edge of a roaring river. The figure spoke.

In "The Story of an Hour," I can relate to so many different things that go on in this short tragic story. After reading the story I almost felt like Louise Mallard and I were living the same life with different events and a different outcome. Everything about the two of us comes down to being always misunderstood and just wanting to be free. In the beginning of the story, we look at Louise Mallard from a bird's eye point of view. Louise is introduced as a devoted young wife who has been told
