Theme

Assignment #8

"Oct. 8 - "Theme:"

"General: Theme"

(1) Theme. What is the theme (see below) or moral of the story?
(2) Resolution. Brainstorm ways you could resolve the conflict(s) within the confines of the theme. You are not required to identify a chosen resolution from your list of possibilities yet, so really think outside the box! Anything goes.


The overall theme, is the rebirth theme. While it can apply to Adelaide, it definitely applies to Rowan. I think the journey definitely helps with the path to rebirth, but I think the choices that she makes, especially towards the end, makes Rowan become a different person. She starts with a lot of self doubts about herself, both physically and mentally. She's trying to start to change, when she's tossed into a new world with a huge expectation of her. She's afraid of what is expected of her, because she doesn't think she's able to do it. By the end, because of the choices she makes, the battles she overcomes, she becomes a lot more confident in herself, in her decisions, becomes almost a leader to those who are with her on her journey. She is even willing to sacrifice herself (a misunderstanding of something she feels will happen by the choice she makes) for the greater good, to make sure that "good" wins.
