Identify one of the darker actions examined in a story or drama from this unit and what piece is the action highlighted what intentions or emotions prompt the action how would the story or drama change, if the character involved, or able to overcome the doctor, darker impulse, and indulge a higher intention explain.
The Dark Side Unite Test
One of the darker actions examined in the story is Macbeth's murder of King Duncan in William Shakespeare's play "Macbeth." Macbeth's intention to kill Duncan is driven by his ambition to become king and the prophecy given to him by the witches. He is consumed by his desire for power and is willing to do whatever it takes to achieve it, even if it means committing regicide.
If Macbeth were able to overcome his darker impulse and indulge a higher intention, such as maintaining his loyalty to Duncan and ruling justly as a noble thane, the story would take a completely different turn. Instead of descending into madness and paranoia, Macbeth could have remained a noble and respected leader, fulfilling his destiny without the consequences of his murderous actions. The tragedy and destruction that befall Macbeth and those around him could have been avoided, leading to a happier and more fulfilling outcome for all the characters involved.
