The Dragon Den Alternate Ending
Shin then angrily walks away and says,
“Your sacrifice won't be in vain…” Ad he orders the archers to shut them out and close the cave. When they did, they see the statues break apart and the men get caved in alive. The next day everyone was silent. No one said a word. They were on their way to the Dragons Den but lost three of their men. The archers regret closing the cave on their own brothers. Shin was ignorant to everyone, he shut everyone out. He was way ahead of the group and just wanted to be alone. Takumi wanted to talk to him but he felt really bad so he just let him be. Honda didn't seem very affected by this. He acted the same even after Ryo died and still did the same with the death of Kazuki and Takuya. Takumi then goes to him and asks,

It's not like people won't die. Takumi. Hear me out, in order to be a good leader, you have to learn that people are gonna die, you can't take it to heart because there's bound to be another death to happen.”
“No, a good leader knows his men, has a close relationship with the army. He fights for them and weeps for everyone of them.”
“If that's how you see it. Then so be it. Just letting you know, you won't survive as leader.”
They look before them as they finally see the Dragons den. The cave was about 50 feet tall and fifty feet wide. It had a whole bunch of kanji writing on it representing the legendary Dragon itself. The group looks at it in awe.
“I've never seen a legend actually come to life…” says Takumi.
The eager to get in and they slowly enter the cave. The cave was dark and no one could see anything but then once they set foot in it, torches lit up all around them.
“Beware, there is booby traps here!” Says

    The Cave is a famous analogy/allegory written by Plato which he uses to explain some parts of his theory of Forms. Within the analogy many of the key factors are symbolic of a situation that people can more easily understand and interpret themselves. The actual cave represents the world we perceive, the empirical world and the world of sensory perception. It acts as a barrier to the truth because our perceptions may be flawed. The prisoners chained so all they can do is looking in front represent us. We are trapped in the physical world of illusion with our handcuffs being our flawed senses and experiences. The shadows caused by the…

    Imagine yourself sitting inside a dark, damp, cave where the only thing you can see are moving shadows on the cave wall in front of you. You can’t move anywhere or see anything besides the shadows, and these are the only things you’ve seen for your entire life, so these moving dark images are the most real things you’ve ever known. At some point in our childhood we were mentally in this state of darkness, we didn’t know anything about the world or have any complex thoughts. How then, were we brought out of our caves of darkness and misunderstanding? The Allegory of the Cave is a well known section of Plato’s The Republic. Plato tells a story of prisoners in a cave with no mobility and the only thing they can see are shadows cast by figures behind them. One day one of the prisoners is shown around the cave and has the shadows explained to him, he is then taken out in to the world above to be shown real figures and objects in the world. These three stages were written to represent three different stages in our mental development. Plato believed that the highest level of education is when you have fully experienced good, beauty, and truth. There are some people in the world have never experienced it because they have only seem it acted out by other people, or had it defined but never gone far enough out of their caves to feel it for themselves, and Plato wrote this story to try and tell people that they are living in a cave and could be experiencing a whole different world they don’t even know about yet. This story was written to criticize the education system because many people who have problems analogous with the problems of the prisoners do not think in that simplistic way on their own, but have their views of the world because of their education. Plato shows how the obligation of educators is to bring people out of their caves and…

    One of the prisoners is released, so he begin seeing more real things, such us the figures that were reflected in the big wall (which represents the reflection of the objects in the exterior world), the humans who were carrying them and finally the light of the fire (which represents the sun).

He will first see the reflections on the water, the objects, the sky during the night with the stars and the moon and eventually the sun during the day.…

    Platos Analogy of the Cave

    • 1782 Words
    • 8 Pages

    The cave is a symbol of the world; it represents the World of Appearances based on what people see by their senses. It is an illusionary physical world in which people are trapped by ignorance and false truths. It is a world where people ignore the truth and are unenlightened. The prisoners are in this illusionary world where they think that what they are seeing is reality however it is not reality at all. In the cave there are shadows of truth and echoes of reality. It is filled with illusions. It is a world of senses where the prisoners have gained empirical knowledge which is flawed. Plato thinks that the prisoners’ situations are no different from ours, as we do not see the forms clearly, only the physical world. Plato believed that everything exists in its true,…

    Plato’s Allegory of the Cave starts in a world where men are strapped to the hard floor in a sitting position. The reader is told “[t]hey’ve been there since childhood, fixed in the same place, with their necks and legs fettered, able to see only in front of them.” This deprivation of movement does not allow the cave dwellers to turn their heads, thus giving them the inability to grasp what exists around them. The only things the dwellers can see are the images of shadows projected by inanimate objects behind their backs. Since shadows are all they observe, shadows are all they know, symbolizing the realm of deception in which they live in. In order to correct this delusion, a philosopher must step into the cave and rule over the cave dwellers, liberating them of all evils.…

    When the light was shut off it darkened the room abruptly, multiple people began to ask what was next. After walking through more corridors we got to another large part of the cave; however, on the roof of the cave where countless white spheres, when they turned on the lights there was a handful of tables in the room with what appeared to be some sort of kitchen. The guide told us the room we were in was called “The Snowball Room”, although it was also a halfway mark for more extensive tours so people could rest up and have a meal before continuing with their five mile tour underground.…
