Seth: The Hero

              To be a hero someone has to show self-sacrifice.  Self-sacrifice is when one character gives up something of his for another character.  Also, they don’t worry about their own welfare and put other’s life before their own.  Throughout Havoc, by Chris Wooding, Seth is self-sacrificing and willing to risk his own safety so he is a hero.

            Seth is a hero because he looks out for his friend, Kady, and the other kids who were taken to Malice and Havoc.  Even though he was able to escape Malice, he still had to get the shard.  The shard was important because it was going to save the kids who were in Malice and Havoc.  Even though he was safe in the real world he wanted everyone who was trapped to be free and for none of them to have to go back.  Seth is self-sacrificing because of the way he is willing to put him in possible danger and possibly give up his freedom.

            Seth is also a hero because he wasn’t worried about his own safety.  In the real world Seth could live happily and safely, but he feels like he has a job to do.  This job was dangerous because he could get killed.  Tall Jake and the others who were helping him carry out his plan didn’t want Seth to save the world.  Seth is a hero because he is putting others’ safety in front of his own.

            Seth is a hero because throughout Havoc he is willing to sacrifice himself for the benefit of others.  He was in the real world looking for the shard without thinking how it would affect him.  After he found the shard he went to Havoc to save the others who were trapped there.  Seth shows self-sacrifice and puts the welfare of others before his own, Seth is a hero.
