Emma And The Castle Of Fear 2: How She Escaped The Dungeon Of Doom



As we read the snow scene in Emma, let us do so with a realization that while Austen may be painting an absurd portrait, the views of these characters are not, in and of themselves, absurd. For 1815 readers, a fear of snow and ice would be justifiable, or at the very least, understandable.




Emma And The Castle Of Fear 2




During a snowball fight in the winter of January 2039, Norman fainted due to the low temperature and had to be quarantined within the orphanage's sickbay. Emma, who cannot help to be isolated from her dear friend, sought to sneak into the sickbay and accompany him, but failed in every try as she was caught by Isabella consistently, who forbade her to stay near Norman in fear of how his cold might spread to her. In the end, Emma thought of interacting with Norman via a tin can telephone. Norman chatted with her and the other orphans merrily through the night.[8]


However, Emma is also at times seen as being self-conscious and doubtful as to her position as the leader. Her greatest fear is making the wrong decisions and putting her family in danger and blames wrongdoings on herself. She also has trouble speaking her mind about how she truly feels and tends to bottle up her feelings. The only person she'll admit this to is Ray, however.[19][16] Even after being encouraged to rely on other people, Emma will still bear her burdens alone and be selfless to a fault if it means that her family will be safe; she agrees on forgetting about herself, her family, and every event in her life so every cattle child could safely arrive in the Human World.[10][4]


After Emma successfully has reforged The Promise by herself, she makes her way to the Royal Capital with her friends and Mujika and Sonju in order to stop Norman to follow through with his extermination plan. Emma and Ray made it into the castle, only to find that Norman killed the queen and the Five Regent Houses, then they had to fight the queen's second core. After the battle, they found out that their family and friends are kidnapped by Peter Ratri, after he retraced the footsteps from where Emma, Ray and Norman come from.


One day during spring 2049, "Emma" and her foster father go into town for grocery shopping. "Emma" is amazed to see so many people and houses and excitedly wanders around.[10] She enters a shop with her foster father while he suddenly notes that Emma does not have her necklace, and "Emma" goes outside to search for it. When she finds it, she also sees Ray, Norman, Don, Gilda, and the other children in front of her. Everyone rejoices upon finding "Emma" after two years, but "Emma" backs off, as she does not know anyone. It is revealed that when Emma made the Promise with the Demon God back at the Seven Walls, she was sad over the price she had to pay to implement the Promise, as in forgetting her precious family. However, she also describes it as settling her selfish requests rather than a sacrifice, as it was her idea to avoid Norman's plan of the extermination of the demons. She thanks the Demon God for being able to give all of her friends and family a happy future where they don't have to live in fear.

I have been interested in gynecologic oncology since my second year of medical school. After I observed a doctor calm the fear and pain of a woman with ovarian cancer simply by sitting at her bedside and holding her hand, I knew I wanted to be a part of the powerful doctor-patient relationship and compassionate care that defines the field. 2ff7e9595c
