Subject: Is it easy to have a sad story with an antagonist.

My troll sense is tingling.

That actually completely flews past my head.
Yea. That's what Ill do (of course in a more interesting way though).
But when people are dead and it all comes down to it (grand finale) should previous sadnesses fuel a protagonist's anger in the final run? I'd like to end of a sad though (not in the traditional sense though.)


Gah, I Guess some stuff will come to me over time.

That all depends on where you want the character and themes to go. A similar example is The Dark Knight Rises, though it was much more than just sadness and anger but also fear and love. Silent Hill 2 is another example of sadness fueling the protagonist in the final run, though I somehow doubt you want to take the story in that direction.

Don't worry, it'll come to you.

Hope it does. Thanks.

Also, I made a thread asking for help with writing over half a year ago and I think it was you who helped me in the end too. I know you dont remember but thanks.
I was having issues with the choice of first person or third person narrative.

There's a “U” and “I” in union but just an “I” in my beliefs

Yes.

Not too sure if I remember. If you have the thread saved you can PM it to me.
