However, his fame also made him a target, for many have challenged and attempted to assassinate him for recognition. When out at sea or in any large body of water, Philip possesses extraordinary abilities in utilizing the winds, navigating through unknown waters, maneuvering through harsh storms or rough seas, and setting traps for his victims. Philip possesses one unique ability that distinguishes him from all that sail the Five Seas, the ability to …show more content…
He has the power to call upon the Mighty Sea Gods (a five-headed hydra that terrorizes ships in open waters) at will. In the course of his life, he developed a deep connection with the sea creature. With this unbroken bond, Philip is able to (when near) feel what it feels, see what it sees, and astonishingly, ride upon it. He can also, in some degree, conjure a violent thunderstorm in minutes. For that purpose, his ocean blue eyes serves more than just appearance, for it allows him to see with clarity through storms, dense fog and mist, and great distances underwater, known as the "Vision of Medina". That being said, Philip can hold his breath for long periods of time when submerged.

    To begin, Phillip and Fredrick both felt entitlement to have divine right of their countries through absolutist and military rule. Philip II made Spain the largest navy fleet of its time, intimidating other nations. Fredrick William rebuilt and retrained his military into professional soldiers, giving Prussia one of Europe’s largest land armies. This aided them to fight in the Great Northern War in 1715 solely to rid Swedish armies from their German strongholds. Phillip’s most prominent military victory was the conquest of Portugal in 1580 when King Henry of Portugal died. By enlisting their citizens in their militaries through conscription, both monarchs gained control over their population. Citizens knew if they were to act up they could lose their jobs, harming their families. Overall, these Kings established leadership through fear tactics in a subtle manner.…

    If, therefore, Philip had then come to the conclusion that it was a difficult task to fight the Athenians while they held such strong outposts in his own territory and he was destitute of allies, in that case he would never have gained his present successes, never acquired his present power.

    The seven deadly sins are spoken of often and frequently in every day life for that is what they are affected with. All of these sins can intertwine to form a domino effect of actions and reactions that link to all of the sins. Once one is committed, it becomes easier to fall into the others for they are all interlinked. This is prevalent in Malory's Le Morte D'Arthur as proven by the acts committed by the various characters throughout the book.<br><br>When looked at as separate words, the definition of the phrase, the "seven deadly sins", becomes clearer. Starting with "seven", being the chosen number of dealings, following with "deadly", meaning fatal, proceeding to die, or to become deceased and finally "sins", wrongful doings according to religiosity. So from the breakdown of the specific words it can be said that the expression, the seven deadly sins, means that there are seven, not two, not four, but seven wrongful doings that upon execution become fatal.<br><br>Now that the phrase has been fully explained and hopefully understood, it is time to move on to the actual seven sins that are deadly. The first of the seven sins is greed, being the insatiate longing for or the keenly intense desire for something being of material value or not, that is usually not thought of to be achieved in an moral way. The second sin is gluttony, meaning the overindulgence in anything, great appetite for anything, such as food for example. The third sin is wrath, meaning extreme anger or feeling of vengeance. The forth sin is sloth, being severe laziness or lack of enthusiasm to do anything. The fifth sin is envy, meaning the coveting of anything that is not rightfully owned by the coveter, grudging contemplation of more fortunate people and of their advantages. The sixth sin is lechery, being sexual lust or lust for anything, to live in gluttony. The seventh, and last of the sins is pride, being the overweening opinion of one's own qualities, merits, often personified as…

When Pi and Richard Parker were settling down in the ocean, Pi says “It was Richard Parker who calmed me down.

    Haemon disregarded the declarations and that was seen as the height of disrespect against Creon, but in the eyes of the civilians Creon is entirely in the wrong. The greatest iniquity committed by Haemon is the fact that he did not believe Antigone was guilty or deserved to be put in a tomb to die. Engulfed in all his power, Creon did not realize he was the only one that felt it was right to punish Antigone for performing a proper burial. Although it is not popularity but respect that he is searching for by sentencing Antigone to death, he is still putting himself before his country’s well being. Haemon is indirectly saying that a government should be based on democracy, public opinion, and have laws established for the betterment of the city, rather than the sole benefits handed to the authoritative figure. If Creon is a fair king who truly represents and defends his people, as he seems to believe himself to be, then he should pay attention to his people. If they don’t think Antigone should be punished, then perhaps Creon should reconsider.…
