Walter White is Going Dark

“An abyss is the lowest part of a person/heroes journey. It is the place of darkness and a place to face (metaphorical) monsters.  Once the “dragon is slayed” transformation occurs”


I don’t really know how to explain this without giving an example. Like the hunger games when Katniss saves Peeta and kills the last people. But she goes through her transformation when she is about to kill herself with Peeta, knowing how much their lives have value. The transformation phase occurs in every hero’s journey. Another example I can give is like in Breaking Bad. At first Walter White can succeed in getting the money for his family before he dies, but his transformation is different. He knows he can get the money, but his life went on a roller coaster from down to up to down. He had cancer and dying but he won’t stop getting money from the meth, He wants more and more as his family falls apart. He’s not a good man anymore, just a dead beat who is killing himself inside, as well as his family. 
Mr. White man
