LDW: Similies metaphors and cliche!

I hair the color of chocolate, and eyes the color of the ocean. My figure resembles that of a newly planted tree, short and skinny.


My hair is the color of a freshly waxed wooden table, and my eyes are blue, like a navy officer's hat. My figure is like a computer wire.

LOW: THE EPIC!

EPIC

This shows what I know about epics so far and I feel this shows a hero and how he is larger then life and how what he is doing seems heroic. He just seems to be walking to continue the battle even though his allies are dying and continue what he was trying to do in the first place.

1. An epic is tale tale told to tell the actions of a heroic person or event, often making things seem larger than life, and show both the good and the bad side of the heroes.

1. (The main character or protagonist is heroically larger then life, often the source and subject of legend or a national hero.) Line 8 talks about Achilles being godlike (larger then life)
2. (Story begins in the middle of things.) The story starts at the 10th year of a 10 year war just before the final battle, instead of starting at the beginning of the war.
3. (Frequent use of epithets) Line 8 God like Achilles, Line 91 Achilles the great runner, Line 98 Calchas the perfect prophet, Line 103 dancing-eyed girl.

Public hero: Maiev Shadowsong

Maiev Shadowsong

Maiev's job was a warden tasked with the job of keeping the traitor, Illidan Stormrage. in check. She did her job to the best of her ability. She was not commanded to watch over him, but she took it upon herself to look after him. Eventually however, Illidan escaped. She pursued Illidan to the ends of Azeroth and beyond to outland. She never gave up and devoted her life in an attempt to slay, or recapture the traitor known as Illidan. In the end she was unable to capture Illidan, and was forced to slay him with the help of Akama. She is a hero because of her dedication and effort in hunting and killing Illidan, even when she had to give up everything she had to defeat him in the end. Kael'thas, Lady vashj, among their followers would have seen Maiev as a villain and a pest. She would be at every turn attempting to thwart their plans and take their leader hostage. Even some of the night elves thought of her as a villain. She had failed to keep Illidan contained, and much havoc was wrecked, as many lives were ended and areas conqured due to her inability to keep him captured.
