    Characterization And Character Analysis: Legend By Marie Lu

At this point in the story June is looking through the case file of Metias, her brother’s death. She looks at the poorly taken crime scene photos of his dead body and notices some marks on the knife’s hilt. Looking at the photos more in depth, she sees marks that are not blood. Instead they are black, thick, and have texture to them. The text states, “These black marks look like rifle grease. Almost like the streak of grease that was on Thomas’s forehead when I first saw him that night” (Lu 226). This reveals how June might now…
