Step 11 - Resurrection
Vogler says this is a second life-and-death moment, almost a replay of the death and rebirth of the ordeal. Death and darkness get in one last, desperate shot before finally being defeated (sprained ankles galore!). It's one final test to see if the hero has really learned the lessons of the ordeal. The hero is transformed by these moments of death-and-rebirth and is able to return to ordinary life reborn as a new being with new insights.
Well this has thrown a spanner in the works. How will I replay my life-and-death ordeal? I'm guessing there must be a few pissed off gnomes still hanging around, or is it just pissed off villagers? Maybe Martins parents go fully mental on Emily's arse. Maybe she cops all of these things plus her parents turn up as well. No, surely not, the parents thing would be too tacked on. I think.
What lessons did Emily learn from the ordeal in the first place? Be careful taking sides, or don't get involved in politics? Remember to see things from both sides of the argument? Violence is not the way? Don't mess with gnomes? I don't know. I just hope they're dark harsh lessons.
