Question

Which universal theme in the story do these lines from the passage suggest?

"But if any man tries to stop me, let him take care, for I am desperate. I'll fight for my liberty to the last breath I breathe."
love and duty
heroism
death and rebirth
initiation

Answer 1

Perhaps the answer is "heroism". This man doesn't feel fear, he has to do what must be done. He wants to have his freedom more than anything else, and if somebody wants to stop him, he can only try, he is so brave and heroic that he will fight him for the thing he deserves.
