Shadow Traveler and Healing Light
An average day in the life of Will Solace Will Solace is normal. The truth of this matter, of this entire story, is that Will Solace is just like any other student on the cusp of graduation, he’s just like any other boy at his age, he is at his very core, absolutely like every single one of us. This school day is not at all different from all the other school days.

He wakes up at the crack of dawn. He brushes his teeth. He takes a shower. He eats breakfast. He waves goodbye to his mother. He goes to school. He talks with friends. He goes to class. He goes to lunch. The school day ends. Repeat; Monday through Friday. It's at this point of the day, when Will leaves the grounds of Olympian High School, that Will can say his day actually begins.

To say the most, he was enjoying his time with his little sister. He had little time to spend with Hazel and Frank was pretty cool, even if their conversations either went to Hazel or to a mutual interest in a card game.

It was at that moment in nearly every film, when the romantic tension is finally cracked open with a dramatic reveal that the movie flickered out of view and the lights began to turn on.

“Ladies and gentlemen, please excuse this interruption. There appears to be a commotion going on outside, and we suggest that you all remain inside. The film will continue to play when the threats are taken care of.”

A dull murmuring rises from the theater audience, as Frank turns his head to look at Hazel and Nico. He smiles sheepishly and says, “Looks like we’ll be here a while, huh? Good thing we’ve got popcorn.” Hazel smiles warmly at Frank, her curly, cinnamon colored hair bobbing up and down as she nods. “Yeah! Though I wish I could catch a glimpse of Healing Light or Shadow Traveler. Don't they seem cool,

Lawson is eleven years old, in the fifth grade and is the youngest of five children. Lawson (among many other things) enjoys drinking tea, sporting fedoras, and playing the video game minecraft.

    A hush fall’s over the crowd. It’s as if we can feel their presence, even before they had arrived in the room. I’ve heard stories about them – glorious stories about their battles and triumphs.

    1.“And I love light. Perhaps you’ll think it strange that an invisible man should need light” (page 6, chapter 1) The invisible utilizes a mocking and ironic tone to tell the audiences that he actually loves light as an invisible man. This “ironic” fact can be a foreshadow to the end of the story where the invisible man is ready to emerge from the underground and return to the lightness of the public world. Also, the invisible man’s obsession to light can indicate that he is never entirely invisible, and there are always some aliveness and purpose inside his heart that require him to take his time to discover and identify.…

    Sonny’s Blues Light and Darkness motifs One of the most revered of James Baldwin’s stories is Sonny’s Blues; wildly debated for its variety of topics the short story embodies. Racial discrimination, emotional respite through music (Jazz), Harlem’s quandary and Light and Dark imagery are some of the various topics he conveys in this story. James Baldwin contrasts light and dark motifs to denote the narrator’s feelings about different situations he faced in his life. The narrator employs light and dark symbolism to elucidate on the painfulness of reality and the vigor gotten through it; while darkness represents negative aspects of society, light epitomizes a way to survive and a means to save Sonny’s positivity and possible future to anticipate.…
