When Carthya and Avenia went to war, Jaron never stopped believing that Carthya would win for the sake of his people. Jaron had signed Carthya over to Avenia as a surrender, and the Avenian King thought it was all over. When it came down to it, Jaron was just about to give up and get hung, but even then he had a plan to get them out of it. In our modern society, there are still countries at war, losing lives just like in Carthya. Battle plans are always made in our wars, similar to all of the dangerously stupid plans that Jaron has. There are also those people in our society who are willing to risk their lives to save their country just like in Carthya and Avania. The moral of this story is gaining respect and learning to use it right like Jaron did when he became king. King Jaron said this to Roden when he was appointing him to be the commander, “Nobody gives you respect in this life. You must take it, you must earn it, and then you must hold it sacred, because no matter how hard respect is to attain, it can be lost in an instant.” This quote is one I live by because there are so many people in this society who take it for granted. The plot effected all of the characters because the war caused damage to everyone in one way or another. Such as, Mott got injured and almost died, and Jaron and Roden almost got hung, but in the end Mott got better, Roden found his father, and Jaron married Imogen.
