What Was The Difference Between Appala And Omihobi
The Serpent was under shock. Appala and Sorva and the people of Hankisr mourned his death whereas Omihob was inconsolable losing Mekala.
Kalaki summoned Appala and said, “Before it’s not too late, agree vanquish by taking your troops to your continents.” Appala roared and tried to attack Kalaki with his flail. Kalaki eluded the attack while the Serpent hissed her new evil thoughts to Appala as she saw Nithini and Varigo careened closer to a huge rock to rest. Kalaki and Gaabara were alert to guess their next move.

    There Anubis weighed your heart against the feather of Ma'at. Ma'at, the goddess of justice sits on top of the scales to make sure that the weighing is carried out properly. You can see Anubis steadying the scales to make the weighing fair. If your heart was lighter than the feather, you lived for ever. We still talk of "a heart as light as a feather" to mean care-free, and "heavy-hearted" to mean sad. If your heart was heavier than the feather then it was eaten by the demon Ammit, the Destroyer. Ammit had the head of a crocodile, the shoulders of a lion and the rump of a hippopotamus. These were all frightening animals for the Egyptians. Thoth, god of wisom and writing, stands by to record what…

    Diction In The Rattler

    • 536 Words

    As the snake dies it “strikes passionately once more at the hoe” and “there is blood in his mouth and poison dripping from his fangs.” The imagery dramatizes the image of the snake’s power being drained. The reader can visualize the transition from a once fierce snake to a lifeless carcass. In response to the killing of the snake, the man feels regret for the necessity of the circumstance, as “it was all a nasty sight, pitiful…” and “he could see it as he might have let it go, sinuous and self respecting in departure over the twilit sands.” This is a reflection of what could have been, and reveals the man’s conflicting feelings on what was necessary. The pitiful scene of the snake’s death adds to the man’s regret. The imagery in the passage emphasizes the idea of “what could have been” and therefore the man’s internal…

    He is most likely trying to get Okonkwo back to the way he was before. Back to enjoying his work instead of not caring for it. He could be using a threat that he will die from the sorrow and when he dies from it so will his family (48). “Is it right that you, Okonkwo, should bring to your mother a heavy face and refuse to be comforted? Be careful or you may displease the dead. Your duty is to comfort your wives and children and take them back to your fatherland after seven years. But if you allow sorrow to weigh you down and kill you they will all die in exile,” Obierika said to Okonkwo…

    Family was there when it seemed like everyone else had turned their backs. When Okonkwo had been exiled from Umuofia, he went to his uncle, Uchendu, and “As soon as Uchendu saw him with his sad and weary company he guessed what had happened, and asked no questions” (Achebe 129). Uchendu understood his nephews problems without him having to ask questions and supported him regardless. Since Okonkwo saw that his uncle was willing to stand by his side, Okonkwo felt more at home and had an easier time adjusting. Had Okonkwo been alone he would have made rash decisions alone and been forced to grieve alone. With the unity that Uchendu had shown Okonkwo, he did not end up causing any conflicts and created a peaceful stay. Due to the unity between the family, Okonkwo seemed less isolated and removed chances of conflicts between the new clan and Okonkwo. Another moment in which familial unity played a crucial role was when Agbala had taken Enzima. Ekwefi ran after Agbala for quite a while until she stopped at a cave where Okonkwo eventually found her. Okonkwo stayed with Ekwefi at the entrance of the cave ensuring the safety of his daughter and Ekwefi. Okonkwo held great fondness for his family in his heart, which caused him to stand by Ekwefi unified for the sake of his daughter. As a result of the unity, Okonkwo felt reassured and did not go in after Agbala that could have conjured up…

    According to the book, Okonkwo’s greatest fear “was the fear of himself, lest he should be found to resemble his father”(Achebe,Things Fall). Throughout the book, Okonkwo goes to great lengths to be the opposite of his father, but he ended up dying with no titles, just as his father did. When Unoka died, the book says he “ had taken no title at all and he was heavily in debt. Any wonder then that his son Okonkwo was ashamed of him”(Achebe,Things Fall)? Okonkwo being ashamed of his father, goes to show the embarrassment Okonkwo felt, in addition to Okonkwo’s willpower to be different. According to 123helpme.com, “ However, in the end we find that [Okonkwo’s successes] really do him no good because each title is stripped away as he makes one mistake after another....Because of the love that he had for himself, and only himself, there was no room in his heart for him to care about the others in his life and for that reason "things fell apart" (Okonkwo). This goes to show how diligence and perseverance in achieving titles became the center of Okonkwo's life and eventually his downfall. When Okonkwo died though, the titles he had worked for became absolved, because even though he made a strong decision to commit suicide, self-immolation is looked down upon in Umuofia. When Okonkwo died, according to the book, the clansman of his tribe said “It is against our custom,” said one of the men. “It is an…
