In Cassandra Clare’s novel series The Mortal Instruments and other related series, there are many references to other religions mythologies. The main question that is asked refers to the number of mythologies that she uses without the readers realizing it until her books are re-read or researched further.

ennobles the man who wields it It is a sword that heals.” ~Martin Luther King Jr.. This means that nonviolence can be just as effective and impacting as violence itself, except nobody is being hurt mentally or physically by it.

She barely had any time to register what it said before a hideous creature pounced. She flailed with the sword, hoping to strike whatever was attacking her. Sizzle. The blade made contact. Now filled with determination, she swung the sword once more. Again she made contact, this time shaving some scales off. “Oof!” The demon grunted as…

Beowulf includes three separate instances in which Beowulf fights monsters: his battle with Grendel, Grendel’s mother, and the dragon. However, there are many similarities and differences between the different battles. Some aspects of the fights that vary are the cause of the monster’s initial attack, Beowulf’s motivation for countering the attack, Beowulf’s battle preparations, and ultimate outcome. The first aspect is the cause of the monsters’ attacks. Grendel attacked Heorot out of…

nature and social nature and social implications of their combat.”(Oswald 66) Being taken back by her sudden attack, Beowulf had to quickly strategize. His sword Hruthing could not pierce her skin. He had to use his bare hands for the remaining of the battle until his eyes saw the sword mounted on her wall. He quickly grabbed the mighty sword and sliced her head. Male and female fighting was a boundary that was not crossed until their…

With his whole body quivering in shock, he let the sword fall from his hands, and he ran. "No, no, no, no..." Fenran dropped to his knees and blubbered incoherently. His heart was thumping. His ears were ringing. Prisoner gasped quick shallow breaths, blood seeping from her wound. He was scared to touch her. As if touching her would provoke death. He closed his eyes hard. Nauseated. He didn't want to see Prisoner like this. Not like this. "Look at me," he placed his palm on her cheek, weeping,…
