In the story "Nethergrave" by Gloria Skurzynski, the author uses the conflict of man vs. self. This internal conflict is evident when the protagonist, Jeremy, is torn between his desire for escape and adventure in the virtual world and his fear of facing the real world and real-life challenges. The following quote showcases this conflict: "I longed for something new, something different, something I wasn't sure I'd ever find in my real life" (Skurzynski 2).
