Will power the battle between good and evil, right and wrong, the power to say no or be able to quit when you say “I quit”. Will power, something not many people have a lot of but will power is how people chase their dreams or in xaivers case, survive he had the will power to control the morphine , the mauser riffle , and had the skills of snipping will power something that Elijah didn’t have.

One of the main reasons Elijah became a windigo is because his loss of will power against the morphine addiction. I think because of the reference to morphine multiple times in the book it has a lot to say about how easily can sucked into the power of the drug and have their lives dramatically changed. The symbolic meaning of morphine in “Three Day Road” is the fight between good versus evil.

For Elijah it represented evil as he became addicted to morphine which totally changed his behavior and attitude. Elijah lost his will power and gave in to the temptation and cruelty of war.
