How to Become a Hero


            There are many ways for someone to become a hero.  In the viewing of Merlin I saw two different people acting like a hero.  The first hero I saw was Merlin.  Merlin was obviously not the strongest or even royalty in the viewing.  The thing that made him a hero was when he went out of his way to save the kings son.  Merlin did not have to find a sword to kill the black knight, but he did because he did not want to see anyone else die.  Merlin showed love and loyalty which are traits of a hero.
The second hero in the viewing on Merlin was Uther.  When Uther took his son’s place in the fight, he made an ultimate sacrifice.  Uther believed he had no chance of winning yet he still chose to fight.  He was willing to die for his son because he loved him so much. This is a trait of a hero, sacrificing one’s own life to save another.
