Today we talk of Chapter 33, entitled "Relationships are difficult." These are the difficult relations that have been formed between Saga and all others: the grandmother and child, in fact, is a powerful engine of this story. Her constant repeating "I had to act, because otherwise you would not come to anything done" is not only a truth in the story, but it is also a truth in the meta-narrative.
That is, the author, not only Saga, he realized that without an engine without a yoke "adult" and conscious, Alice, Sendo and company would not know where to bang his head.
is thus justified the presence of the grandmother, as is explained in this chapter may not be his job to guide them in this adventure (it seems that every generation of Magus and The ellu write stories then become legends in the history of the world, and c ' is always someone to guide them ... just like a Gandalf who acts as a guide to the Fellowship of the Ring), but it wanted to be present, partly because this time his loved ones are to be placed in danger. It looks like glue to a whole series of past events (mentioned in the various chapters, but here are hints to the dark events that have previously the rise of Wotan) and active at the same time as the engine that a certain form to the events and forces them into a new direction. Without
saga would not have been possible to continue the story.
However, this relationship she has with history, with both characters (who are obviously not to be seen as "characters," but as "loved ones" in the narrative) is not easy, quite the contrary: the 'which leads to action, is a violent action, is to oppose and make decisions against the Empire, the Nazis ... all absolute power, ruthless, evil, which only produce violence and death. The trip (the quest ) is not meant metaphorically, but "real", as in Lord of the Rings Saga opposes a "journey" different character, Ayane who would flee from Ephesus, and leave everything behind, but she says she must be ... travel, aging, the lens is entirely within reach. Sendo
must learn not to run away from it all, Ayane to trust others, to recognize Alice herself ... as well as Erastos must finally be reunited with the other self, which at this time is totally represented by the shadow of her sister who carries all his past. But
bring their loved ones on this road is a source of suffering for Saga: why expose them to hazards, because the same "move" outside the borders of their own hard built in is dangerous ... ... and above all, in this story, the steps that lead toward the achievement of this are the same steps that can lead either to destruction.
How, in the second chapter, the grandmother said to Alice "You must go", without willing it must act now because this is done directly. In the case of Alice to remain at home in the swamp is like saying "stay young" and remain in place (imaginary and mythical) of childhood. But Alice has to grow and get out of herself. Although the wait out there all sorts of dangers.
But the grandmother also said, "Go find some friends, and live for them", there are dangers out there only! The construction of a new ego, an ego in relation to others, to live, gives meaning to life, according to his grandmother ... this is the first trip, the more spiritual than her as the motor of history is called upon to perform. They like it or not. For this you can be hated by those who would like to do only good! Here's why the phrase "I'ma grandmother terrible" (and even the mention of Baba Yaga Antonio: The Baba Yaga is the witch in the woods ... by definition that in fairy tales, if we accept the lesson Propp , soprasiede the rite of passage ... the rite of passage into adulthood, made in the story, often through death and resurrection of the character): Saga but would not want to be ...
However, ruthlessly, and almost ruthlessly with herself, he will do whatever is necessary to fulfill its task ... time and then will be responsible for Sendo, Alice ... able to take the road with their legs, know what to do, and what is the best ... to untie the knots in short, that a guide can only indicate, but do not resolve by itself: as Gandalf who accompanied Frodo in his mission, but Frodo has completed, learning what was right and what is not.
