The writer finds that the seemingly opposite characters actually share similar goals: to fight the imbalances, particularly the social disparity between noble and commoner and to make the world a better place. Both characters start to differ because of their differences in backgrounds which lead one to seek power while the other one abandoned power. Each characters have their own assigned roles based on the application of Jung’s archetypes, and they share similar roles. But, while most a character’s roles changes to the shadow sides (the negative sides) because of the situations that occured, the other character retains the positive qualities of the archetypes. Both characters become the antithesis of each others and their interweaving roles lead to a deeper and complex interpersonal conflicts, a more interesting story, as well as a great emotional impacts.
