225 Words1 Page

In the departure portion of the Hero’s Journey, Marlin is called to adventure after his son, Nemo, attends school for the very first time. Nemo decides to disobey his father and swim out into the ocean because his new friends dared him to touch the “butt” of a boat. He touches the boat but is caught by a scuba diver as he is swimming back to his friends. Marlin never refuses the call to save Nemo. He immediately does what is possible to get his son back home. Luckily, while searching for Nemo he meets another fish named Dory, who has short term memory loss. Marlin and Dory encounter three nice sharks who believe that fish are friends and not food. Unfortunately, Marlin fights Dory for a scuba mask and it causes her to get a nosebleed. Bruce,

In many ways, works of fiction and some pieces of nonfiction could not exist and would not make sense without the concept of a Hero’s Journey; it allows the reader to comprehend and follow the progression of characters over the course of the story. While Cormac McCarthy’s novel The Road may not display most of the archetypal qualities found in classic Hero’s Journeys such as J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit or Homer’s Odyssey and Iliad, it most clearly exemplifies the qualities of a Hero’s Journey through the Boy’s character in relation to the mentor, tests and enemies, and the
